Russia Unleashes Oreshnik, More Strikes Planned

The Duran: Episode 2529 Russia has launched its most devastating missile strike on Kiev to date, deploying the Oreshnik hypersonic missile system alongside Kinzhal and Zircon weapons in a massive coordinated assault that has left Western leaders visibly shaken. Alex Christoforou and Alexander Mercouris on The Duran break down how this strike was a direct response to Ukraine's attack on a student dormitory in Starobilsk, why Ukrainian air defenses completely failed while Moscow's held firm, and what the simultaneous collapse of ceasefire negotiations and China's hardening stance toward Russia means for the trajectory of the conflict.
