Ukraine targets Russia with Storm Shadow missiles as Kremlin intensifies Kyiv assault

October 22, 2025

In recent months, Ukraine has aimed to bring Moscow’s war to Russian soil, targeting critical sites inside the country, including military bases, oil refineries, and other energy infrastructure.

The U.K. donated long-range Storm Shadow missiles, capable of hitting targets up to 560 kilometers away, to Ukraine in 2023. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer signaled his approval last November for strikes inside Russia, and Ukraine reportedly deployed them for the first time the same month.

Kyiv has lobbied the U.S. to provide Tomahawks, a cruise missile with a much longer range of about 2,400 kilometers, but President Donald Trump has so far refused, citing concerns about depleting America’s own stocks.

Russia also attacked Ukraine overnight, killing six people, including two children, in assaults across the country, including on the capital Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.

“Everyone who helps Ukraine with long-range capabilities will bring the end of the war closer,” he added.

Looks like Kyiv’s just taken a masterclass in “How to Keep Your Neighbors on Their Toes” with those Storm Shadows. Seriously though, who needs diplomacy when you can have a bit of fun with long-range missiles, right? 😏💥

Liz Truss’s Dream of Boosting British Cheese Exports Falls Flat in Japan

Japanese tariffs on various British cheeses remain notably high at 25, 14, and 18.6 percent, due to a phased reduction over 15 years following a trade deal effective from early 2021.
“When combined with the fact that we typically export the more premium — and therefore expensive — cheeses to Japan, the impact is even higher,” said Hyde. “All this means that British cheeses will feel relatively exp
