“It’s quite possible to imagine a surgical application of a hypersonic Onyx from a Russian ship in the North Sea on The Hague courthouse,” Medvedev said Monday.
“So, judges, look carefully to the sky,” he warned in a post on the messaging app Telegram.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) on Friday issued an arrest warrant for Russian President Vladimir Putin. “No need to explain where this paper should be used,” Medvedev tweeted in reference to the warrant, adding a toilet paper emoji.
