Ukraine fires UK-made missiles into Russia for first time
Storm Shadow missile attack comes day after Kyiv used US-supplied long-range weapons to strike within Russia
Ukraine has fired UK-made Storm Shadow missiles into Russia for the first time since the beginning of the conflict, multiple sources have told the Guardian.
The decision to approve the strikes was made in response to the deployment of more than 10,000 North Korean troops on Russia’s border with Ukraine, which UK and US officials warned was a significant escalation of the near three-year conflict.
