So he answered the corresponding question of the journalist.

"It's not possible yet. This is a new threat from the north, which is arriving very quickly, and we don't have the means against it yet. America has several such funds, we don't have them… What can I say, even if the IRIS-T SLS, it seems, our craftsmen shot down ballistic missiles once or twice. Although this complex is not intended for this at all. But hypersonic missiles are not. And, unfortunately, there is no "Hazel" either. We can't," said Borovik.

According to him, this is a new threat.

As reported by EADaily, experts from the United States are studying the wreckage of the Hazel that struck Ukraine on the night of May 24. This was stated at a briefing in Kiev by Jim Himes, a member of the Intelligence Committee of the US House of Representatives.
