Video of Russian ICBM Being Loaded Into Silo Makes Splash Among Brits
08:01 GMT 16.12.2022 (Updated: 15:25 GMT 28.05.2023) The Yars missile, which began to be introduced into Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces in the early 2010s, is meant to serve as the backbone of the ground-based component of the country’s nuclear deterrent for decades to come.
Readers of a UK media outlet have reacted to the Russian Ministry of Defense (MoD) releasing a video of
the RS-24 Yars intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) being loaded into an underground silo at a base outside Moscow.
Some started to speculate about repercussions from an alleged scenario of Russia launching a Yars ICBM strike at London.
“At least we will be warm, be it temporary, it beats dying hungry in the freezing cold like many will be in the UK this winter,” one user wrote, in an apparent nod to their country’s energy crisis that emerged after the US and its allies slapped packages of sanctions on Russia over its ongoing special military operation in Ukraine.
According to another user, “if there is a strike on London, then at least the migration crisis will be tackled.”
Another netizen argued that “London is toxic, and [former UK Prime Minister Boris] Johnson is stirring it up,” adding, “I believe London will be targeted, and the sheep of this country will pay […].”
One more reader reportedly called for the Yars missile to be directed at BoJo, “who told [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelensky not to take part in peace talks” to resolve the Ukraine conflict.
The Russian MoD’s two-minute video released on Thursday showed the RS-24 being delivered to the silo and then loaded into it with the help of a special transport-loading unit.
The Yars ICBM, which has a range of about
12,000 km (approximately 7,400 miles), is capable of carrying up to six independently targetable warheads with a payload of between 150 and 500 kilotons apiece.
