In a significant escalation, Russia launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) from the Astrakhan region on Thursday morning, marking the first use of such a weapon in the ongoing 33-month-long conflict. The missile targeted critical infrastructure and enterprises in Dnipro, a central-eastern city in Ukraine. While it is still unclear whether the missile caused significant damage, the strike highlights a dangerous new phase in the war.
