Russia is preparing to deploy RS-26 'Frontier' missiles, capable of striking anywhere in Europe, in retaliation for Ukraine’s use of US and UK-made missiles, including Storm Shadows, on Russian soil. The Oreshnik complex, also known as the Hazel missile, can hit targets all over Europe, according to Sergey Karakayev, the Commander-in-Chief of the Strategic Missile Forces, at a meeting with President Putin. This development raises concerns about increased tensions and the potential for escalation in the region.
