Russia first used the multiple-warhead Oreshnik on the Ukrainian city of Dnipro in November 2024. It was used a second time in January in the western Lviv region.

Citing Ukrainian and Western intelligence reports, Zelensky said Russia appeared to be preparing an Oreshnik missile strike on Ukraine.

Russia has likely struck the city of Bila Tserkva in Kyiv Oblast with an Oreshnik medium-range ballistic missile.
