Russia's deployment of the 9M729 cruise missile, banned under the INF Treaty, against Ukraine has reignited tensions. This weapon, capable of exceeding treaty limits, prompted the US withdrawal in 2019. Ukraine reports 23 such launches since August, with one missile traveling over 1,200 km. Russia's actions highlight a disregard for arms control, as it also tests other advanced weaponry.
