Britain has transferred dozens of Storm Shadow cruise missiles to Ukraine

British news sources report that Keir Starmer's government has sent a batch of cruise missiles to Ukraine for the first time. The Bloomberg news site reported that Keir Starmer’s British government has sent dozens of Storm Shadow long-range cruise missiles to Ukraine in recent weeks. According to Bloomberg, London has not announced the missiles were being sent, and the exact time and number of missiles sent are unknown. Bloomberg also reported that the missiles were sent before Western countries had issued a license to use long-range missiles against Russian soil. Following the US election that resulted in Donald Trump’s victory, America, Britain and France have for the first time officially given permission for the Ukrainian military to use its long-range missiles against internationally recognized Russian territory. Moscow says the Biden administration is seeking to escalate the conflict in Ukraine before Trump takes office and to derail efforts to resolve the crisis peacefully.
