The newly developed Russian hypersonic, nuclear-capable missile known as the “Oreshnik” was first tested as a conventionally armed version in a strike on a Ukrainian factory in November 2024. Russian President Vladimir Putin has boasted that the missile is impossible to intercept. He’s also said he’s prepared to use the missile against Ukraine’s allies.
