In Kyiv, sappers neutralized a warhead of Russia's latest X-69 precision-guided missile discovered by a local resident in Holosiivskyi district.

In Kyiv, a local resident noticed a suspicious object that looked like a missile part sticking out of the ground in a forest. The sappers of the Interregional Rapid Response Center of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine thoroughly examined the area and removed the warhead of the X-69 precision-guided missile.
It is noted that since this is a newer weapon, it took longer for the SES to safely remove it from the ground, load it into a special vehicle, and transport it to the blasting site.
The SES urged to be as careful and cautious as possible:
- watch your step;
- pay attention to suspicious items;
- do not touch them under any circumstances, call "101" immediately.
Director of the Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Expertise Oleksandr Ruvin previously spoke about the features of enemy X-69 missiles.
"The X-69 air-launched missile is the result of the X-59MK2 modification; it can be launched from fighters and bombers, and the range of carrier aircraft is extensive. The enemy began using this type of weapon on a more massive scale on the territory of Ukraine in 2023. A characteristic feature of the X-69 is the square hull section. In addition, the modified version has changed the range, flight speed, and warhead," Ruvin said.
