The Russian Defense Ministry spokesman called the strikes a retaliatory strike. The Russians used partly hypersonic missiles, almost undetectable by anti-aircraft defense. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reacted on Thursday morning: “The enemy tried to intimidate the Ukrainians using their miserable tactics again“.
