Ukraine uses British Storm Shadow missiles against Russia for the first time
Ukraine has launched British-made Storm Shadow missiles into Russian territory for the first time, targeting the Kursk region. This marks a shift in Western support for Ukraine amid escalating tensions, particularly with North Korean troops joining Russian forces. Images of missile fragments have surfaced online, confirming the use of these long-range weapons. The UK government has indicated strong support for Ukraine, despite recent cuts to its own military equipment. In response to Ukraine's actions, Russia has condemned the missile strikes and warned of retaliation against NATO countries. The U.S. has also adjusted its military support, allowing Ukraine to use American-supplied land mines to counter Russian advances.
