Russia's defence ministry said on Monday that the target it hit last week in a strike with a hypersonic Oreshnik missile was a Ukrainian aircraft repair plant, which was disabled. Ukraine and its European backers condemned the Russian missile strike on Friday,

The hypersonic Oreshnik intermediate range ballistic missile hit Ukraine's western Lviv region late Thursday night, although officials there did not mention any casualties.

Ukraine's commander in chief said December was the first month that its drones "neutralized" roughly as many Russians as were called up.

Russia claims to have shot down a US-supplied Ukrainian F-16 using its S-300 system, marking rising war tensions.

The UAV, which bears a resemblance to the Iranian-designed Karrar drone, utilizes the Telefly jet engine, though with a greater thrust than the Geran-3 model, according to HUR.
