Here's What We Know
Colonel Yuriy Ignat, spokesman for the Ukrainian Air Force, said that Russia probably used 9M723 missiles from the Iskander-M operational-tactical missile system, which fly on a ballistic trajectory. This information was later confirmed.
The Iskander-K was also hit. These are already cruise missiles. They are easier to shoot down. Patriot and SAMP/T surface-to-air missile systems are used to intercept ballistic threats. In total, the air defence system was able to shoot down 11 of the 11 Iskander-K and Iskander-M missiles.
