First Time - Russia Claims Intercepting Ukraine’s Neptune Missile

On August 29, the Russian Ministry of Defense or MoD asserted that it had intercepted a Ukrainian Neptune anti-ship missile. This appears to mark the first recorded instance of intercepting Ukrainian anti-ship missiles since the start of Russia’s military operation in Ukraine. Prior to this incident, there were no known cases of such interceptions in public records. According to the MoD, their air defense systems successfully intercepted two HIMARS multiple rocket launchers, a Neptune anti-ship missile, and two HARM anti-radar missiles. However, the Ministry provided only limited information about the incident, refraining from revealing the date and location. Subscribe Now :
