Medvedev: Moscow will destroy Kyiv should Ukraine use US MLRS against Russia

Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, in an interview with Al Jazeera TV channel, stated that Russia would strike decision-making centres in Kyiv should Ukraine use USA's multiple launch rocket systems (MLRS) against Russia. "If these types of weapons are used against Russian territories, the armed forces of our country will have no choice but to act to defeat the decision-making centres," Dmitry Medvedev said. The General Staff and the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine could be the targets, Medvedev noted. According to him, the centres where final decisions are made are not located in Ukraine, so such a threat will have to be taken into account.
