Thats a bit of a concern if this is true, will we ever know? Probably not, but either way its a significant escalation in this war for them to even mention this.

Putin and Lukashenko won't be bluffing, they mean it.
It's to let the West know that Russia is ready and waiting with viable nuclear weapons.
RE: Putin's Closest Ally Says More Than Dozen Nuclear Weapons In Belarus - nzoomed - 11-12-2024
All I do know is that Putin has made many threats of nukes and not used them, and here we are with Ukraine occupying Russian ground and still no nukes to be seen.
It's going to be worse than any WW3 should Putin use a nuke.

Did you not see the demo of the mid-range M.I.R.V.'ed Hypersonic Ballistic Missile, demonstrated over Dnippro using no explosives just the shells of the missile.
It was an amazing demo and impressed me and others who saw it.
I think it was called Hazel Tree. It's an older modified Full Range Ballistic Missile.

Here's some of the detail:

It has been modified from the original to be used in Ukraine, the demo was impressive.
It's called Hazel Tree:

Can't find the demo which was a real shot without explosives.
Here's video which shows the strike plus more

I'm going to post this again because it shows Hypersonic missiles M.I.R.V.'ed and coming in from the stratosphere in seconds and flashing as they hit the targets.

There's method in their madness, they want to intimidate you and then take your stuff unless you stand up to them.
There are no fixed rules except might is right.
God, morals and ethics can all be put to one side if the reward is big enough and the opponents look weak and vulnerable.
Do or die. Sink or swim. Live and let die. You only live once.
