Last Saturday, February 19th before the Ukraine attack, Russia’s Yars intercontinental ballistic missile was launched during Russia’s strategic drills. The missile was launched from the Plesetsk Cosmodrome in the Arkhangelsk region at the Kura range in Kamchatka.
Vladimir Putin watched the video of the missile launched in real-time alongside with the president of neighboring Belarus, Alexander Lukashenko, from what the Kremlin described as a “situation center,” New York Post reported.
