The
Ukrainian military fired 16 surface to air missiles in drills in its
Kherson region, which borders Crimea, as it kicked off a two-day military drill
on Thursday. The Russian government, which annexed Crimea from Ukraine in
2014, has called the drills a “dangerous precedent” and initially threatened to
shoot down the missile.
