Original Note:
FALSE and MISLEADING Russia fired an Oreshnik IRBM, not an ICBM. NATO did not warn citizens because the IRBM was fired at Ukraine, which is not a member of NATO. Russia informed US of the launch so NATO knew it was not a nuke, and there was no need to inform citizens. https://www.techarp.com/military/nato-russian-icbm-nuke-dnipro/ https://tass.ru/politika/22467645 https://bulgarianmilitary.com/2024/11/21/putin-denied-an-icbm-strike-confirmed-use-of-the-9m729-oreshnik/ https://edition.cnn.com/2024/11/21/europe/ukraine-russia-missile-wwk-intl/index.html
