Russian missile hits major Ukrainian city after new weapons enter conflict
Eastern Ukrainian city becomes target of advanced missile strike from Russia. This move follows recent deployment of western-made missiles by Ukrainian forces across the border
In a major turn of events this thursday‚ Ukraines air-force reported that Russian military launched an inter-continental ballistic missile at Dnipro — a significant city in eastern Ukraine (which shows serious up-scaling in military actions)
The strike happened just after Ukraine used their new western-supplied weapons: first-ever deployment of US-made ATACMS missiles inside Russian territory happened about 48hrs ago; this came right after Biden administration changed its policy on these weapons use
Following that Russian officials stated that british-made Storm Shadow missiles hit their territory on wed: these high-tech weapons are now being used more often in cross-border strikes. The situation shows how both sides are now using more advanced missile systems in their operations
