It's been claimed long-range missiles supplied by the UK were used in a devastating strike on the city of Luhansk which is held by Russian forces in Ukraine.
defence ministry said the weapons used in the attack were Britain’s Storm Shadow cruise missiles.
The Russian ministry said: ‘Storm Shadow air-to-air missiles supplied to the Kyiv regime by Britain were used for the strike, contrary to London’s statements that these weapons would not be used against civilian targets.’ Britain became the first country to confirm it had started supplying Kyiv with long-range missiles on Thursday.Two industrial sites were destroyed more than 60 miles behind the Russian frontline
British defence minister Ben Wallace said the missiles could be used within Ukrainian territory, implying he had received assurances from president Volodymyr Zelensky that they would not be used to attack targets inside Russia’s internationally accepted borders.
