What preceded
The day before, on November 20, social networks spread information about an allegedly "particularly massive" missile attack on Ukraine. Some embassies in Kyiv, including the US, temporarily suspended work due to security threats.
A number of media and Telegram channels spread rumors about the possible launch of the intercontinental ballistic missile RS-26 "Rubizh".
