Britain recently supplied Ukraine with dozens more Storm Shadow missiles, according to a Bloomberg report by Alex Wickham. “The deliveries, which were not publicly announced, took place several weeks ago and were ordered after Kyiv ran low on the long-range missiles, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing security issues,” Wickham writes. The missiles were sent before the UK and the UK allowed Ukraine to use their long-range missiles to strike targets in Russia.
Asked about the report, which has been independently confirmed by the Guardian, the Ministry of Defence said:
