Russia reports Ukraine launches six ATACMS missiles at Bryansk region
wcvb.com —
Russia's Defense Ministry reported that Ukraine launched six U.S.-made ATACMS missiles at the Bryansk region. This follows President Biden's recent decision to ease restrictions on Ukraine's use of American weapons, allowing strikes deeper into Russian territory. Ukraine claimed it targeted a military weapons depot, while Russia stated it intercepted five missiles and damaged one. Debris from the interception caused a fire but no reported casualties. In Ukraine, Russian strikes have intensified, with recent attacks killing at least 12 people, including a child, in residential areas. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy condemned the attacks, asserting they demonstrate Russia's unwillingness to pursue peace.
