Ukraine strikes Russian military site with ATACMS missiles for the first time

Ukraine has launched its first strike on Russian territory using US-made ATACMS missiles, hitting a military facility in the Bryansk region. This follows President Biden's authorization for Ukraine to use these long-range missiles against deeper Russian targets. The Russian Defense Ministry confirmed the attack, stating that five missiles were intercepted, with one causing damage. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov warned that Ukraine's use of these missiles could lead to a nuclear response from Russia. In financial markets, US and European equities fell, while global bonds rose amid fears of escalating conflict. The yield on the US 10-year bond decreased as tensions increased following the missile strike.
