Ukraine launched US-supplied ATACMS missiles into Russian territory this week — the first confirmed strikes of their kind — after Washington quietly allowed Kyiv to use the long-range weapons for attacks across the border, Ukrainian and Russian officials said. Kyiv’s General Staff announced Monday that it had deployed the precision-guided missiles “against military targets on Russian territory,” calling the capability a “significant development” that would continue in future operations. “The Armed Forces of Ukraine have successfully employed ATACMS tactical missile systems to deliver a precision strike on military targets on the territory of russia,” the General Staff wrote in a post to X.
