A missile strike occurred near the village of Radušnė, close to Kryviy Rih, resulting in the deaths of six individuals, including three children. The second missile impact was registered approximately three and a half kilometers from the initial strike that hit a private residence. During the aftermath of the attack, V.
Vlasiukas reported that five minors from the same household were reported missing. The weapon identified in the incident is the “KN-23,” a ballistic missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead. These missiles are launched from mobile platforms, a technology that the north Korean regime has reportedly been developing and testing extensively in recent years.
Military analysts have drawn comparisons between the KN-23 and the Russian Iskander-M system due to their striking similarities. This resemblance has led some experts to characterize the KN-23 as a functional alternative to weaponry currently held in Russia’s arsenal. The concern surrounding this advanced missile capability is significant, as the mobile launch system enhances the strategic reach and deployment flexibility of such weapons.
The deployment of the second missile in this sequence underscores the advanced nature of the threat posed by these sophisticated ballistic platforms.
