Conflicting Early Reports
As often happens during breaking news events, information about the cause of the explosion has varied widely.

Some initial claims shared online suggested that the weapon involved might have been a Raduga Kh‑55, a long-range cruise missile originally developed during the Cold War.

However, defense experts caution that such early claims should be treated carefully until investigators complete a full analysis of the evidence.

Missile identification typically requires detailed examination of debris, fragments, and other physical evidence collected at the scene.

Until those investigations are completed, officials say it is not possible to confirm the exact weapon used.
