Russia has again said it will use hypersonic missiles to destroy fuel depots in southern Ukraine. 

Russia's Defense Ministry said in a statement that a large Ukrainian military fuel depot had been destroyed in the Mikoleev region by launching a hypersonic missile from the Kinzhal missile launch site.

At ten times the speed of sound, this missile is capable of hitting a target at a distance of two thousand kilometers. 

Meanwhile, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has called on China to condemn Russia over its military operation in Ukraine. 

In an interview with the media on Sunday, Johnson said Russia had chosen the wrong path, similar to World War II. Like Boris, it is a fight between good and evil.

"As time goes on, Russia's dictatorship has risen to the top," he said. I'm dying to make it impossible for people to forgive Putin. "

Therefore, Boris Johnson has called on Russia to condemn such acts instead of sitting on the fence of China.

ইউক্রেনে হাইপারসনিক মিসাইল ছোড়ার দাবি করলো রাশিয়া

ইউক্রেনে হাইপারসনিক মিসাইল ছোড়ার দাবি করলো রাশিয়া

ইউক্রেনের দক্ষিণাঞ্চলে জ্বালানি গুদাম ধ্বংস করতে আবারও হাইপারসনিক ক্ষেপণাস্ত্র ব্যবহার করার কথা জানালো রাশিয়া। 

রুশ প্রতিরক্ষা মন্ত্রণালয় জানিয়েছে, ‘কিনঝাল ক্ষেপণাস্ত্র উৎক্ষেপন কেন্দ্র থেকে হাইপারসনিক মিসাইল ছুড়ে মিকোলেইভ এলাকায় ইউক্রেন সেনাবাহিনীর একটি বড় জ্বালানি সংরক্ষণাগার ধ্বস করা হয়েছে।’

শব্দের চেয়ে দশগুণ গতি সম্পন্ন এই ক্ষেপণাস্ত্র দুই হাজার কিলোমিটার দূরের লক্ষ্যবস্তুতে আঘাত হানতে সক্ষম। 

এদিকে ইউক্রেনে সেনা অভিযানের ঘটনায় রাশিয়ার প্রতি নিন্দা জানাতে চীনকে আহ্বান জানিয়েছেন ব্রিটিশ প্রধানমন্ত্রী বরিস জনসন। 

রবিবার সংবাদমাধ্যমকে দেওয়া এক সাক্ষাৎকারে জনসন বলেছেন, রাশিয়া দ্বিতীয় বিশ্বযুদ্ধের মতো ভুল পথ বেছে নিয়েছে। বরিসের মতো এটা ভালো আর মন্দের লড়াই।

তিনি বলেন, ‘সময় বয়ে যাচ্ছে, রাশিয়ার স্বৈরতন্ত্রও পাহাড় চূড়ায় উঠেছে। আমি মরে করি মানুষের জন্য পুতিনের অপরাধ ক্ষমা করা অসম্ভব হয়ে পড়ছে।’

তাই চীনের প্রতি বেড়ায় বসে না থেকে রাশিয়ার এমন কাণ্ডের নিন্দা জানানোর আহ্বান জানিয়েচছেন বরিস জনসন।
