TL;DR Summary

Ukraine has used US-made Atacms missiles to strike a military target in Russia's Bryansk region, marking the first use of these long-range weapons on Russian soil since the Biden administration lifted restrictions. The attack targeted a weapons depot, resulting in multiple explosions. This move signifies a shift in US policy, as President Biden authorized limited use of Atacms to support Ukraine's operations, particularly in the Kursk region where Russia has amassed significant forces, including North Korean troops. Neither the US nor Ukraine officially confirmed the missile use.
