Air Force spokesman Yuriy Ignat said on the air of the telethon that it is not yet possible to intercept such missiles, since the reaction time is insignificant, because the distance from the launch point to the capital is short.

Later, the Russians used high-precision weapons: Kh-101/Kh-555, Kh-22 air-based cruise missiles, Caliber sea-based cruise missiles, Kh-59 guided air missiles. They were directed to objects of critical infrastructure of Ukraine.
