The Onyx missiles, designed for naval targets, travel at an incredible 2.6 Mach (over 3,000 kilometers per hour). During their trajectory, they can ascend to higher altitudes to conserve fuel before descending to skim just 10-15 meters above water to strike their intended ships.<\/p>\n<p><b> <i>We\u2019re bringing the voice of Ukraine to the world. <a href=\"https:\/\/english.nv.ua\/donate\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Support;elm:context_link;itc:0\" class=\"link \">Support<\/a> us with a one-time donation, or become a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/nvua\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Patron;elm:context_link;itc:0\" class=\"link \">Patron<\/a>! <\/i> <\/b><\/p>\n<p>Read the original article on <a href=\"https:\/\/english.nv.ua\/nation\/russia-s-night-attack-on-odesa-oblast-onyx-missiles-target-civilian-infrastructure-50358906.html\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The New Voice of Ukraine;elm:context_link;itc:0\" class=\"link \"> The New Voice of Ukraine<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/four-injured-russia-strikes-odesa-095700341.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Russia launched an attack on Odesa Oblast in southern Ukraine in the early hours of Oct. 7, injuring four civilians while targeting<br \/><button class=\"read-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/world\/four-injured-after-russia-strikes-odesa-oblast-with-supersonic-onyx-missiles\/07\/10\/2023\/\">Read More &rsaquo;<\/a><\/button><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_seopress_robots_primary_cat":"","_seopress_titles_title":"","_seopress_titles_desc":"","_seopress_robots_index":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/1Dbgbt0jVgzJaqyL3EMN9g--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTEyNDI-\/https:\/\/static.nv.ua\/shared\/system\/Article\/posters\/002\/756\/365\/original\/b32b8b5675416c257e74381c1340be9c.jpg?q=85&amp;stamp=20231007124741&amp;w=900","fifu_image_alt":"Four injured after Russia strikes Odesa Oblast with supersonic Onyx missiles","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1920"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1920"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1920\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1920"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1920"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newssprinters.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1920"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
