Excerpt:
In a chilling escalation of the Ukraine conflict, Russia has reportedly launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) targeting Dnipro city in central-eastern Ukraine. Ukrainian officials, sharing the alarming news on Thursday, described the missile strike as catastrophic, with captured footage depicting scenes reminiscent of Armageddon.



The establishment is doing everything they possibly can to get their WWIII…

Let’s hope peace wins out for everyone.

Was it nuclear?

No. "Just" high explosive. The "ICBMs" have a range under 4000 miles. The missiles have an "accuracy" of plus or minus one or two football fields. By way of contrast, US' ATACMS missiles are accurate to within ~10 yards, and UK Storm Shadow missiles are similar or better.

Exactly.  “ICBM” is apparently just a dog whistle term.  What matters is what operative material was used, not how it got there.

No, I don't think they were ICBMs at all.  Just run of the mill medium range ballistic missiles like SCUDs.

To my simple mind, a rocket that can only fly 4,000 miles is NOT an Inter Continental Ballistic Missile.  Something that can hit a target from across an ocean is.

Somebody is trying to stir up fear.  Probably Putin.

True. A bottle rocket fired from Europe could land in Asia.

Heck, the Gibraltar strait is 8 miles wide, so anything that can fly at least 10 miles could technically be an ICBM since it could fly from Europe to Africa.
