During a press briefing, Maria Zakharova, the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman, received a phone call from high offices in the Kremlin instructing her not to comment on an alleged intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) strike on Ukraine. Zakharova accidentally revealed this during the briefing. The call was made in the middle of her press conference, and the caller explicitly mentioned that the target was the Yuzhmash factory in Dnipro, Ukraine. This incident has raised questions about the transparency of Russian military actions in Ukraine.
