Ukraine's successful use of UK-supplied missiles against Russia and new acquisition of French missiles.

British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace confirmed that Ukraine has "successfully" used the Storm Shadow missiles provided by the UK against Russia. The missiles have a firing range of over 250km and were given to Ukraine ahead of an anticipated counteroffensive against Russia. Wallace stated that under international law, Ukraine has every right to retake Crimea from Russia in accordance with self-defense. The international community's support for Ukraine is growing stronger, with US and NATO-supplied equipment continuing to pour into the country.
