Shadow cruise missiles to strike Russian targets, CNN reported on May 16,

Storm Shadow is a long-range cruise missile developed jointly by the UK and France, typically air-launched.
On May 11, CNN reported that the UK had already supplied Kyiv with several Storm Shadow missiles capable of striking targets at a distance of over 250km. Later, UK Defense Minister Ben Wallace confirmed that London was transferring the missiles to Ukraine, emphasizing that they would be used on the country's sovereign territory.
