Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha called on partners to provide Ukraine with air defense systems. The new systems could protect Ukraine from Russia's advanced missiles.
“Russia's use of a ballistic missile is a typical blackmail,” Sybiha emphasized.
He explained that Russian leader Vladimir Putin is trying to scare everyone away from supporting Ukraine.
“Ukraine's partners should do the opposite: reject blackmail, increase support, and strengthen Ukraine's air shield with systems capable of intercepting such missiles,” the Foreign Minister explained.
Russia's use of a new type of missile
On November 21, Russian troops conducted another missile attack on Dnipro. This time, however, they used a new ballistic missile, the Kh-47M2 Kinzhal aerial ballistic missile and seven Kh-101 cruise missiles.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reacted to the attack. The European Union once again strongly condemned the attack, noting that Russia continues to play a dangerous game with nuclear rhetoric.
