The launch of the "Oreshnik" missile in the direction of the Ukrainian military facility was a timely and effective response.
This was given to journalist Pavel Zarubin todayin the interviewsaid Dmitry Peskov, press secretary of the Russian President.
The use of "Oreshnik" is not an escalation of the conflict, it is a response to the escalation provoked by the West, Peskov said.
"I mean the blow delivered by our new missile. It was done in a very timely and efficient manner. And this was requested," said the representative of the Kremlin.
Let's remind that this week the Russian Armed Forces used the "Oreshnik" ballistic missile in a non-nuclear hypersonic technique, hitting the large Yuzhmash military base in Dnipropetrovsk.
