    Russia uses nuclear capable missiles almost daily since the start of the war so I don’t know what this article is about. But I also admit I didn’t read it.

    Aside from the usual gripes about NYT, this level of laughably poor background research is both obnoxious and true to form.

    Russia has been using 9K720 Iskander SRBMs and Kh-47M2 Kinzhal ALBMs since shortly after they began the active/overt phase of their invasion in February 2022. Both are nuclear capable.

    Not the first time fuckwit has done this, as article notes. Just saber-rattling bullshit. Usually means Russia is desperate.

    Russia promises to nuke the land it claims to want, and cause fallout downwind over itself. Russia declares Putin a sane and competent leader. Nothing stupid going on here. This 3 day operation is almost over.

    The only news here is that it didn’t explode on the launch pad like Russian missiles have been recently doing.
