A specific Russian Kh-101 cruise missile, nicknamed the 'Ghost of Uman' by Ukrainian air defense trackers, has been reported as active in Ukrainian airspace. The moniker suggests this missile has evaded interception in previous attacks, particularly those targeting the city of Uman. Its reappearance indicates the ongoing, large-scale Russian missile campaign against Ukraine continues to employ high-value, long-range cruise missiles. The threat underscores the persistent challenge Ukrainian air defenses face in tracking and destroying these low-flying, terrain-hugging weapons.
