Putin Fires ICBM at Ukraine, Warns West; Zelenskiy Calls for Global Condemnation

Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed launching a hypersonic missile strike on a Ukrainian military facility on November 21, citing NATO's involvement in the conflict as a reason for the escalation. He claimed the missile test demonstrated Russia’s advanced capabilities, using a medium-range ballistic missile equipped with nuclear-free hypersonic technology. In response, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy condemned the attack as a severe escalation, accusing Russia of prolonging the war and showing no interest in peace. He also criticized the global community for its weak reaction, urging stronger international condemnation to deter Russia’s growing aggression and ongoing military actions.
