Large fires in Kharkiv after Russian drones attack<\/h3>\n

The Russian military has announced a successful test launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) from a state-of-the-art nuclear submarine.<\/p>\n

The Russian military confirmed the ICBM test launch was carried out from a new nuclear-powered submarine, showcasing the country’s continued commitment to its nuclear capabilities.<\/p>\n

The missile is designed to carry nuclear warheads, further underscoring Russia’s emphasis on maintaining a credible nuclear deterrent.<\/p>\n

The Russian Defence Ministry said in a statement that the Imperator Alexander III strategic missile cruiser fired the Bulava missile from an underwater position in Russia’s northern White Sea.<\/p>\n

It managed to hit a target in the far-eastern region of Kamchatka, but it wasn’t immediately clear from the statement when the test launch occurred.<\/p>\n

The Imperator Alexander III is one of the new Borei-class nuclear submarines that carry 16 Bulava missiles each and are intended to serve as the core naval component of the nation\u2019s nuclear forces in the coming decades.<\/p>\n

Zelensky: ‘If Russia kills us all, it will attack NATO’<\/h3>\n

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky told NBC: “It’s crucial for Ukraine’s allies to continue providing support as Kiev defends common values such as democracy.” Zelensky also reiterated his requests for more air defence systems from the United States, emphasising Ukraine’s need for drones capable of both attacking and gathering intelligence. He mentioned that Ukraine has started producing some drones but requires more. Without such assistance, the President says it will be challenging for Ukrainians to “move forward”.<\/p>\n

Inside Putin’s new submarine fleet<\/h3>\n

According to the Defence Ministry, launching a ballistic missile is the final test for the vessel, after which a decision should be made on its induction into the fleet.<\/p>\n

The Russian navy currently has three Borei-class submarines in service, one more is finishing tests and three others are under construction, the Defence Ministry said.<\/p>\n

The move coincides with President Vladimir Putin’s recent decision to sign a bill revoking Russia’s ratification of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT).<\/p>\n
