Russia has confirmed using a cutting-edge hypersonic ballistic missile to strike a Ukrainian military facility, marking a dramatic escalation in the ongoing conflict. Moscow claims it alerted the U.S. 30 minutes before launch, adding a layer of geopolitical intrigue. 🎯
President Vladimir Putin doubled down, stating the war now carries \"the characteristics of a global conflict\" — a phrase that’s sure to send chills through diplomatic circles. Analysts warn this move could reshape both battlefield dynamics and international alliances. 💥
Hypersonic missiles, capable of traveling over five times the speed of sound, are notoriously hard to intercept. This launch raises questions about the future of arms control and whether other nations will accelerate their own high-tech weapon programs. 🔥
