US EditionBelarus to deploy Russia's Oreshnik missile system in December, TASS reports
- On Tuesday, Belarus will deploy Russia's new Oreshnik intermediate-range hypersonic missile system in December, with Natalya Eismont saying preparations are nearing completion.
- Citing Western escalation, Lukashenko framed the deployment as a response after Russia first used the Oreshnik missile in November 2024.
- Last month, the Oreshnik missiles featured in joint Russian-Belarusian military exercises, and an earlier strike targeted a defence enterprise in Dnipro, Ukraine.
- Russian President Vladimir Putin said he authorised the strike as retaliation for Ukraine's use of U.S. and British long-range missiles and warned of further strikes on `decision-making centres` in Kyiv.
- Capability claims from Moscow prompted skepticism as Vladimir Putin, Russian President, said Oreshnik capabilities are impossible to intercept and comparable to nuclear weapons, though Western experts questioned this.
