It was announced by Russian state news agency Tass despite testing failures and delays.

Head of Russia’s Strategic Missile Forces, Col-Gen Sergei Karakayev said that work continues to place the missile on “combat duty,” Tass reported.

He said: “As of today, fifth-generation Yars and Avangard missile systems have been introduced in the strategic missile forces.

“Work continues on placing the newest silo-based Sarmat missile system with a liquid-fueled super-heavy missile on combat duty.”

The threat comes after Moscow struck the Ukrainian city of Dnipro last week, using an intercontinental ballistic missile for the first time in a major escalation of the war.
