Russia tested its new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) on Friday, the country's defense ministry said in a tweet.

Russia's ministry of defense tweeted a video showing the ICBM taking off.

The test comes just days after Russia President Vladimir Putin claimed he has "invincible" weapons.

On Thursday, Russia kicked out the Americans in retaliation for the U.S. expelling 60 Russian diplomats earlier in the week as punishment for Moscow's alleged involvement in the poisoning of a former spy and his daughter in Britain.
