Russia Kh 22 Missile: Putin’s army did wonders in Ukraine, apartment blown up by warship killer Brahmastra, US-UK failed

Kyiv: Putin’s army blew up a huge building in the city of Dnipro in a powerful missile attack on Saturday in the war between Russia and Ukraine. The death toll in this attack has reached 29. It is being told that Russia used its Soviet-era aircraft carrier killer missile Kh-22 for this attack. This anti-ship missile is so powerful that Ukraine is unable to find any solution to it. Not only this, the air defense systems sent by America and western countries to help Ukraine are also proving to be a failure.

Ukrainian Air Force Commander Nikolai Oleschuk insisted on Saturday that the Kh-22 missile could be detected based on its altitude and flight speed when it was launched, but that accurate identification was lost by hundreds of meters during its flight. It happens. Ukraine’s air defense systems are so effective that they can identify the Kh-22 but it is not possible to shoot it down. He said that we do not have any such weapon on the basis of which the missile can be destroyed.

Russia’s Kh-22 missile weighs 950 kg

Russia has so far rained 210 such missiles since the start of the attack on Ukraine. Ukraine’s military armed with lethal Western weapons has not been able to destroy any of these Russian missiles. Oleschuk said that the Kh-22 missile weighs 950 kg and is capable of accurate attack up to 600 km. He said that only a few air defense systems of western countries are capable of shooting down this missile. His reference was towards America’s Patriot missile defense system.

Meanwhile, the death toll from a Russian missile attack on a residential building in Ukraine’s southeastern city of Dnipro rose to 29 on Sunday. At the same time, rescue workers in Ukraine continued to struggle to extract living people from the debris. A Russian missile had landed on the building the day before. According to the city government, emergency services workers continued to dig through the rubble of the multi-storey building on a cold night. According to the ‘Associated Press-Frontline War Crimes Watch Project’, this is the highest number of civilian casualties at one place since September 30.

Russia fired 33 cruise missiles on Saturday alone

Several cities in Ukraine were attacked by Russians on Saturday. The capital Kyiv and the northeastern city of Kharkiv were also targeted, ending two weeks of calm on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and urban centres. Russia admitted to firing the missile on Sunday, but did not mention the residential building of Dnipro. According to General Valery Zaluzhny, Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Russia fired 33 cruise missiles on Saturday, of which 21 were shot down.

Cranes were used to rescue people trapped on the upper floors of a residential building in the city of Dnipro. About 1,700 people lived in this building. Some people signaled for help by turning on the flashlight of their mobile phones. President Volodymyr Zelensky said at least 73 people had been injured and 39 had been rescued as of Sunday afternoon. The Dnipro government said on Sunday afternoon that 43 people were missing.
