The Russian Federation has attacked Ukraine for the first time with the 'Rubizh' missile, which is a potential carrier of a nuclear warhead.


Dnipro was attacked by the occupiers with the 'Rubizh' missile
Yesterday, on November 21, the occupiers struck Dnipro with an intercontinental ballistic missile 'Rubizh' for the first Time. This was reported by UP sources.
The Air Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine noticed that Russia attacked Dnipro with missiles of various types. In particular, an intercontinental ballistic missile was launched from the Astrakhan region of the Russian Federation.
However, there is currently no official confirmation that it was indeed the 'Rubizh' missile.
It is worth reminding that the exact characteristics of the RS-26 'Rubizh' remain unknown. However, estimates suggest that its launch weight is 40-50 tons, with a range of up to 6 thousand km, and the missile can carry four separate warheads, each with a yield of 0.3 Mt, similar to those mounted on the RS-24 'Yars'.
There is speculation that 'Rubizh' may be equipped with a hypersonic glide vehicle of the 'Avangard' type. It is also noted that it is designed to deliver nuclear warheads.
