'A ukrainian official alleged...'
There, fixed that for you.
5V55K has the range of 47 km, Russia is much further from Poland than that.
Ukraine, on the other hand, uses Soviet S-300.
- deepsun 4y agoWhat are you talking about? They launched dosens (hundreds since Feb 24th) of Kalibr missiles, all the way from Caspian and Black seas.
- kmm 4y agoWhy are you bringing up Kalibrs if the parent was talking about S-300 type missiles?
- deepsun 4y agoYou're right, I stand corrected.
- MrRiddle 4y agoEveryone now admits it’s Ukrainian, but all media initially reported it was stray Russian missile.
- jamal-kumar 4y agoIt's quite easy to assume given Ukraine isn't firing in that direction and that it's a weapon that goes back to Soviet times. I'm glad that it (probably?) didn't turn out to be from Russia, though!
- gdy 4y agoEveryone but the Ukrainian president who earlier said that the missile was an attack on 'collective security' and demanded from NATO that it swiftly punishes the perpetrator))
- gdy 4y agoAnd when Ukrainian military tries to intercept them, stray Ukrainian S-300 missiles sometimes kill civilians on the ground. Awkward, right? Better say that Russians are repurposing ground-to-air missiles and firing them at Ukrainian civilians. This time it was Polish civilians and the lie won't fly. "Three U.S. officials said preliminary assessments suggested the missile was fired by Ukrainian forces at an incoming Russian missile" [0] [0] https://apnews.com/article/g-20-summit-nato-biden-andrzej-duda-25e615909ba0d871d5092f5b3aec21c8 https://apnews.com/article/g-20-summit-nato-biden-andrzej-du...
