After Ukraine's daring drone strikes in Kazan, Russia is preparing to showcase its powerful Oreshnik missiles, with Putin signaling their potential use in the ongoing conflict.
This move comes after recent failed attempts to deploy the weapon, raising questions about the future of missile warfare in the Russia-Ukraine war.
Could these missiles become a game-changer for Russia?
In this video, we explore the mystery behind Oreshnik, its implications for the war, and what the world can expect next.
Russian President Vladimir Putin escalated the war with a revenge-driven drone assault on Ukraine, launching more than 100 drones on December 22, a day after Ukraine struck high-rise buildings in Kazan, Russia. The attack targeted multiple Ukrainian cities, including Kyiv, Kherson, Mykolayiv, and Zaporizhzhya, causing significant damage to businesses and apartment buildings. Ukrainian air defenses managed to intercept 52 of the 103 drones, preventing casualties, though the strikes intensified fears of further infrastructure destruction. This deadly retaliation comes after a devastating attack in Kazan, Russia, on December 21, where Ukrainian forces targeted the capital of Tatarstan, marking a notable escalation in the conflict.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stern warning to Ukraine following a dramatic 9/11-style drone attack on Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan. The December 21 assault, involving eight drones, targeted residential buildings and an industrial facility, causing significant damage but no casualties. In response, Putin vowed harsh retaliation, promising that those responsible "will face many times greater destruction in their own country" and "will regret" their actions. He assured Tatarstan's leader, Rustam Minnikhanov, that all damages would be swiftly repaired. The Russian Defense Ministry reported that the attack was carried out in three waves using fixed-wing drones, with air defenses intercepting three and electronic warfare systems neutralizing another three. This unprecedented assault, deep within Russian territory and 1,379 kilometers from Ukraine, has escalated tensions further, drawing sharp condemnation from Moscow.

In a bold statement, Russian President Vladimir Putin hailed the Oreshnik ballistic missile as a “game-changer” in Russia’s defense capabilities, following its successful use in a strike on a Ukrainian weapons manufacturing facility in Kazan.

The missile's deployment has raised alarms globally, as it is touted as virtually impossible to intercept by even the most advanced Western air defense systems. Putin’s remarks underscore Russia’s growing military might and serve as a stark warning to the West about the evolving balance of power in global defense.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy has told Donald Trump "let's do a deal" as he offered the US a partnership over Ukraine's stores of rare earth and minerals. Sky News
President Donald Trump has made a shocking move by dismantling the U.S. Justice Department’s task force that targeted Russian oligarchs and enforced sanctions against the Kremlin’s elite. The decision, which comes as part of a shift in focus to combating drug cartels and international gangs, has sparked outrage from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. The now-disbanded Task Force KleptoCapture was originally established to weaken Russian financial networks following Moscow’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. Critics argue that Trump’s action benefits Putin and undermines efforts to hold Russian elites accountable. Stay tuned for reactions and geopolitical implications.
