Russian missile strike kills 40 in Dnipro, Kremlin seen preparing for long war

Arestovych made an incorrect statement that was immediately rejected by the Ukrainian Air Force, which said it didn't have the means to shoot down Russian Kh-22 missiles. After disseminating misinformation without understanding the facts related to both the bombing and Ukrainian weaponry, he did the correct thing and resigned.
Given that Arestovych is a self-proclaimed propagandist for Ukraine, the accusations against him make little sense. Russia's attack on Dnipro did not target civilians, but rather legitimate military targets and, as stated by Arestovych, the residential block was damaged by Ukrainian air defenses.
