Reference News reported on August 27Ukraine says it has a new long-range weapon that can strike deep into Russian territory without asking its allies for permission — a combination of domestically produced missiles and drones.

According to reports, Ukrainian officials said that the advent of the "Bunny" rocket drone was out of urgent need, because Russia has controlled the sky since the outbreak of the war, and Ukraine's Western allies have put forward conditions for Ukraine to use long-range missiles to strike Russia.

Zelensky confirmed the existence of the "Bunny" rocket drone on the 24th, which is named after a type of Ukrainian bread. The Ukrainian president called it a "new" weapon.

Officials said Ukraine used the new weapon for the first time on Wednesday, the 33rd anniversary of its independence from the Soviet Union, striking a Russian military facility.

According to reports, Ukrainian Defense Minister Umerov promised on the 26th that Ukraine will soon use the weapon again in response to Russia's attack on Ukraine. A Ukrainian military video suggests that its range is up to 700 kilometers, which is comparable to the Army Tactical Missile System provided by the United States. The video shows a map with multiple airports, including Russia's Savasleika Air Force Base located within the range. The video also said that the "Bread" rocket drone can hit at least 20 Russian airports. (Compiled by Long Jun)
