The war in Ukraine crossed a dangerous new threshold this week -- not because of territory gained or lost, but because of what Russia chose to fire.
Reports indicate that Moscow launched its Oreshnik hypersonic missile in a strike on Lviv, a city just 40 miles from NATO and the European Union. That geographic detail matters. This was not a random battlefield decision. It was a message -- aimed not just at Kyiv, but at Washington, Brussels, and every Western capital watching the conflict inch closer to a wider confrontation.
Hypersonic weapons are not just faster missiles. They are strategic disruptors. And Russia just demonstrated it is willing to use one in active combat.
Russia claims that no existing missile defense system can stop Oreshnik. That statement is almost certainly exaggerated. No weapon is truly invincible. But the more uncomfortable truth is this: there is currently no reliable, proven defense against a full hypersonic strike of this kind, especially when multiple warheads are involved.
