Russia has said Ukraine fired US-supplied long-range missiles into the country for the first time on Tuesday. Ukraine used Atacms missiles in a strike on Russia's Bryansk region this morning, the ministry of defence in Moscow said.

Moscow says Ukrainian forces have taken advantage of President Biden's green light and launched 6 U.S.-made ATACMs into Russian territory Tuesday. Russia says it shot down five of the missiles and damaged the sixth. It added that debris landed in the area of a Russian military facility, but that no casualties or damage beyond a small fire.
