“‘Private deal’ could let Ukraine fire missiles into Russia”

“Ukraine may be given private dispensation by the UK and US to fire long-range Storm Shadow missiles into Russia without making it public until the first one is fired.

Western diplomats are poised to sign off on the decision but could hold back from making an official announcement at the UN next week.

The Times understands there is wariness about publicising the move in advance to alert Russia.

An agreement could therefore be struck in private to allow Ukraine to fire the British and French-made cruise missiles into Russia with the element of surprise, diplomatic sources said.

The UK and France have already sent Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine, but only for use on targets within the country’s borders to fight back Russian invading forces.”
