Ukraine strikes Russia with British Storm Shadow missiles after US ATACMS launch
KIEV, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Ukraine launched British Storm Shadow cruise missiles at Russia, following a strike with U.S. ATACMS missiles the previous day. This marks a significant escalation in Ukraine's military response against Russian targets. Russian war correspondents reported the attacks, which were confirmed by an anonymous official. Moscow warned that using Western weapons deep inside Russian territory would intensify the conflict. Ukraine argues it needs to target Russian bases to defend itself effectively. The U.S. recently approved the use of ATACMS for these strikes, with President Biden granting permission just before leaving office.
