Quote from Nikolenko: "Putin is consigning Russia to poverty with his criminal war, instead of investing in its future. Isn’t it time for Russians to stop marching with portraits of their corrupt leader and start asking questions?"
Details: According to Forbes Ukraine, a Kh-101 missile costs $13 million, a Kalibr $6.5 million, an Iskander $3 million, an Onyx $1.25 million, a Kh-22 $1 million, and a Tochka-U $0.3 million.
Therefore, the cruise missiles that the Russians fired yesterday alone cost $91 million.
Background: On the evening of 2 August, Russia fired 8 missiles at Ukrainian territory, 7 of which were shot down by the air defence system.
