Belarusian leader says Russia deployed its latest nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile to the country

Belarus' authoritarian president said Thursday that Russia had deployed its latest nuclear-capable Oreshnik missile system to the country, a move that comes as talks to end the war in Ukraine have entered a crucial phase. President Alexander Lukashenko said the Oreshnik, an intermediate range ballistic missile system, arrived in the country on Wednesday and is entering combat duty. Russian President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday that the Oreshnik will enter combat duty this month but didn't give any other details.
