Ukraine Launches First ATACMS Strike on Russia

News summary

On November 19, Ukraine reportedly launched U.S.-made ATACMS missiles against a military facility in Karachev, Bryansk Oblast, marking the first instance of Ukraine striking Russian territory with these long-range weapons. The attack targeted an arsenal housing various munitions, including those supplied by North Korea, and resulted in multiple secondary explosions. This action follows a recent authorization from President Biden allowing Ukraine to use ATACMS against targets within Russia. The Kremlin responded by suggesting such strikes could provoke a nuclear response, as indicated by changes to Russia's nuclear doctrine signed by President Putin. Although the attack has not been independently verified, it highlights a significant shift in the conflict dynamics, with Ukraine aiming to disrupt Russian logistics and military operations. Analysts suggest that further strikes may be anticipated as Ukraine seeks to maintain pressure on Russian forces.
