Ukraine launches ATACMS missiles into Russia for first time, claims hit on weapons depot

Russia's defense ministry claims Ukraine launched six U.S.-made ATACMS missiles into the Bryansk region. This marks Ukraine's first use of these missiles since President Biden eased restrictions, allowing strikes deeper into Russian territory. Ukraine's military reported hitting a Russian weapons depot, while U.S. officials confirmed the use of ATACMS. Russia stated it intercepted five missiles and reported no casualties or significant damage from the attack. The missile strike follows a deadly Russian attack on Odesa, which killed ten people. Tensions are rising, with Russian officials criticizing the U.S. for its support of Ukraine, warning it could escalate the conflict further.
