Moscow: Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu confirmed successful testing of the anti-satellite system by Russia, stating that “it precisely struck an old satellite.”
“We have really tested a successful promising system. It precisely struck an old satellite,” Shoigu said, answering journalists’ questions during a working trip to the troops of the Western Military District in the Voronezh Region.
The fragments of the old satellite formed during the testing of the anti-satellite system do not pose any threat to space activities, Shoigu added.
