Britain has supplied Ukraine with Storm Shadow stealth cruise missiles, giving Volodymyr Zelensky’s government the capability to carry out long-range strikes against Russian forces.
The missiles, with a range of 155 miles, will provide a vital boost to Ukrainian forces when they launch their much-publicised spring offensive. They have a shorter reach than the 185-mile American Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS), which President Zelensky has asked for repeatedly, but they will enable Ukrainian forces to carry out strikes not just in occupied territories but inside Russia.
