Russian forces executed a high-profile hypersonic escalation early Sunday morning, May 24, deploying an RS-26 Rubezh medium-range ballistic missile – publicized by Moscow as the “Oreshnik” – to strike the city of Bila Tserkva in the Kyiv region.
Axar.az reports, citing Kyiv Post, the implementation of the strategic system was officially confirmed by Colonel Yurii Ihnat, Head of the Communications Department for the Ukrainian Air Force Command. The launch originated from the Kapustin Yar military test range in Russia’s southwestern Astrakhan region.
The impact in the Bila Tserkva district was captured on localized surveillance feeds, showing multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles separating in the upper atmosphere to cause a rapid succession of ground-level explosions.
Investigative teams from the Kyiv Regional Prosecutor’s Office and specialized military forensic units deployed to the impact site early Sunday morning to recover material fragments and assess structural damage.
