Russian ruler Vladimir Putin has stated that the Oreshnik missile was fired against Ukraine in order to conveniently observe "how the warheads were dispersed". He claims this was necessary for him to "make decisions in the future about a full-scale launch of Oreshnik".

Details: According to Putin, there was allegedly "not a single combat use of Oreshnik" on Ukrainian territory.

Quote: "We tested similar systems at firing ranges, but we did not test Oreshnik. And this is not combat use. In general, we effectively had no combat use of Oreshnik on Ukrainian territory in the full sense of the word. And the last strike, honestly, I will reveal a great military state secret to you – we simply struck where it was convenient to observe the impact."
