The allies won the battles in Iraq and Afghanistan but arguably lost the war [in respect of transition/handover]. Russia may be [slowly] winning some fields and tree lines, but likewise is losing this war. It is burning through its money, people and metal at an unsustainable rate. I suspect Russia is almost spent. Systemic collapse in Russia is going to be sudden. Slava Ukraina

Russia did not send advance notifications to the United States or other countries about the use of the Oreshnik hypersonic missile on a Ukrainian military-industrial facility as there are no such obligations, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov told TASS. "No, there have been no notifications, for Russia has no such obligation with regard to intermediate-range missiles," the spokesman emphasized.

The missile used was an Oreshnik (Hazel) experimental hypersonic intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) that strikes at Mach 10 speeds, making it impossible to shoot down. The IRBM used normal explosive munitions this time (bombarding a State Space Agency of Ukraine aerospace manufacturer called PA Pivdenmash in Dniper with deadly accuracy) but it could just as easily use nuclear munitions next time. This was a warning by Russia to the West that they are not bluffing. Sadly, DC loonies won't stop with this crazy escalation spiral until they see a mushroom cloud. They still think that they can stop this madness at the last moment.
