The video, widely shared on social media, captures the missile streaking through the night sky, drawing comparisons to a celestial event. However, unlike a comet that brings symbolism or awe, this missile represents the devastating realities of war. The footage shows the missile’s trajectory as it flew over Russian territory before hitting the target in Dnipro.
Missiles equipped with MIRVs are designed to release multiple warheads, each capable of striking different targets, significantly increasing their destructive potential.
The attack on Dnipro has raised new international concerns, with calls for investigations into potential violations of international laws of war. Ukrainian authorities are assessing the damage and casualties caused by the strike, emphasizing the need for more robust defense systems against such advanced weaponry.
Stay tuned for updates as more information becomes available.
