"Putin is using Ukraine as a testing ground," Zelensky commented on Russia's attack with a new missile.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that all characteristics of the missile that Russia used to attack Dnipro in the morning indicate it was an intercontinental ballistic weapon.

The head of state reported this in a video address.

“Today, a new Russian missile was launched. All characteristics—speed, altitude—are consistent with an intercontinental ballistic missile. Expert analyses are currently ongoing. It is clear that Putin is using Ukraine as a testing ground. It is evident that Putin fears when there is simply normal life next to him. When people have dignity. When a country just wants to be and has the right to be independent,” the statement reads.

According to Zelensky, Putin is doing everything possible to prevent his neighbor from breaking free from his grasp.
