UK To Supply Storm Shadow Long-Range Missiles To Ukraine

"Today I can confirm that the UK is donating Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine," said Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.

The UK government on Thursday announced it would send Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine, becoming the first country to provide longer-range weapons to Kyiv.

"Today I can confirm that the UK is donating Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine," said Defence Secretary Ben Wallace.

"The donation of these weapons systems gives Ukraine the best chance to defend themselves against Russia's continued brutality.

"Ukraine has a right to be able to defend itself against this and the use of Storm Shadow will allow Ukraine to push back Russian forces based within Ukrainian sovereign territory," he added.
