The US quietly delivered advanced long-range missiles to Ukraine

Breaking News: Biden Secretly Delivers 100+ Long-Range Missiles to Ukraine to Escalate Conflict with Russia

In a recent covert operation, the United States secretly delivered new long-range missiles to Ukraine. These missiles, known as the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS), were used by the Ukrainian army for attacks on Russian opponents earlier in the week. While Ukraine had previously received a version of this system with a range of about 160 kilometers, they had been seeking missiles with a longer range of 300 kilometers to target occupied territories like Crimea.

President Joe Biden had approved the delivery of over 100 of these longer-range missiles in February, but the operation was kept secret to prevent the Russian army from preparing for attacks from greater distances. The new missiles were deployed for the first time in an attack on Russian troops in Berdiansk and then again on a military airport in Dzhankoi, Crimea. Social media images showed successful strikes, with ammunition supplies still on fire hours after the attacks.

The use of these long-range missiles signifies a shift in tactics for the Ukrainian army and could impact the ongoing conflict in the region. While information about the missile deliveries to Ukraine was not widely publicized, possibly to maintain the element of surprise, it is clear that this move represents a significant escalation in tensions between Ukraine and Russia. As such, it remains to be seen what consequences these missile deliveries will have on both sides and how they will contribute to resolving this complex conflict.
