Ukraine fires UK-supplied Storm Shadow missiles into Russia for first time

BBC, Nov 20: Ukraine has fired UK-supplied long-range Storm Shadow missiles at targets within Russia for the first time, the BBC understands

The UK government is not commenting on the reports but the defence secretary says “Ukraine’s action on the battlefield speaks for itself”

It comes after it was confirmed that US-supplied longer-range Army Tactical Missile System (Atacms) missiles had struck targets inside Russia

Earlier Ukraine says Russia is staging a "psychological attack" in spreading messages of a large attack, after the US closes its embassy in Kyiv over an air strike threat

Meanwhile, US President Joe Biden agrees to give Ukraine anti-personnel landmines, a defence official tells the BBC, as the US steps up aid to slow Russia’s advances
