The U.S. has removed its objections to Ukraine using British Storm Shadow missiles to target deep into Russia. This change follows reports of North Korean troops arriving in Russia, prompting a shift in U.S. policy. U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer supports this decision, emphasizing the need for Ukraine to have the necessary weapons to counter Russian aggression. He indicated that the announcement regarding missile use is imminent. Storm Shadow missiles have a range of over 155 miles and are designed for precision strikes on high-value targets. They have been used by the Royal Air Force and other nations since 2003.
