In a frightening escalation of the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, Russian forces have launched an intercontinental ballistic missile at Ukraine according to reports from Kyiv’s air force. This marks the first known use of such a powerful, nuclear-capable weapon with a range of thousands of kilometers in the 33-month-old war.
The air force’s report came in response to Ukraine firing US and British missiles at targets inside Russia, despite warnings from Moscow that such actions would be considered a major escalation. The situation is rapidly deteriorating, with both sides engaging in increasingly aggressive tactics.
Russia, which invaded Ukraine in February 2022, has yet to comment on the air force’s statement. The use of an intercontinental ballistic missile is a concerning development that could potentially escalate the conflict to new and dangerous heights.
This latest incident underscores the urgent need for international intervention to prevent further escalation and bring an end to the devastating war. The world watches with bated breath as tensions continue to rise between these two nations.
