Ukraine fires domestically made Flamingo missiles at Russian targets

Ukraine on Thursday used new domestically produced cruise missiles as well as other weapons to strike “several dozen objects” in Russian-occupied territories and inside itself, according to the general staff. The FP-5 missile, which Ukrainian officials say can fly 3,000 kilometers (1,864 miles) and land within 14 meters (45 feet) of its target, is one of the largest such missiles in the world, delivering a payload of 1,150 kilograms (2,535 pounds), according to experts. It is commonly known as a Flamingo missile because initial versions came out pink after a manufacturing error.
