ATACMS and Storm Shadow to “fly” to Russia? What we know
The New York Times was the first to report about a serious change in US politics. According to this data, two months before the end, President Joe Biden again authorized strikes with ATACMS ballistic missiles into Russia.
It was written that the trigger was Moscow’s readiness to engage Korean troops in the battles against Ukraine. And for one purpose, there may be a signal that Pyongyang should not send more troops to Russia.
American officials are afraid that such a move is sponting on Volodymyr Put You can also live with the US and allies. Others respect and fear others, says NYT. According to Reuters, the first blow to Russian territory may occur in the coming days.
On the evening of the 17th leaf fall, the French publication Le Figaro reported that France and Britain gave the go-ahead to strikes with Storm Shadow/SCALP missiles. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky reacted to the publication. Having guessed that by presenting a plan of victory to your partners, one of the points is far-reaching. In this case, he allowed the strikes without confirming.
“Such speeches should not be announced. The missiles speak for themselves,” he said.
< p dir="ltr">France Information about Storm Shadow/SCALP came from the new Le Figaro. The British government declined to comment, but said that London has no intention of following Washington. Wanting the Storm Shadow to remain in storage at the US position, the missile fragments will take revenge on the American components.
French Minister of European Affairs Jean-Noël Barrault says that allowing SCALP missile attacks will deprive one of the possible options. But for now there are no changes. Having informed the White House press pool, Biden himself gave a speech about ATACMS. National Security Advocate John Feiner even guessed that the United States had issued reports on the capture of Korean soldiers before the war against Ukraine. What kind of confirmation it will be, without specifying.
Why did the little ones show up all at once? The logic is that the focus on strikes against Russia may lead to a massive attack on the energy of the 17th leaf fall and on the acquisition of troops from the DPRK, explains the head of the Center for Applied Political Research “Penta” Volodymyr Fesenko.
“Vlasna, now there is a quick information push on the evidence. Here is how it was presented: Biden did not say directly, not casually, and France has a subordinate position. This is called strategy of insignificance. Let the enemy not know, the decision is praised,” he told the RBC-Ukraine YouTube channel.
According to the words of a high-ranking official of RBC-Ukraine at the military-political stakes, Great Britain and France finally allowed Storm Shadow/SCALP to strike. Ale between the Kursk region.
If the information is confirmed by Storm Shadow, this means not an expansion of the storm zone, but the transfer of high-precision maps of the Russian terrain, which are used for navigation This TERCOM system means profile resource Defense Express. And this is already opening the way for the Ukrainian army to capture AGM-158 JASSM missiles with a range of 370 to 1000 km for Biden.
How the world reacts to the sensitivity about the attack on the Russian Federation
Both partners of Ukraine and opponents of the Ukrainian support are reacting actively. Lithuanian President Gitanas Nausėda believes that the end of the ATACMS and Storm Shadow/SCALP attacks will be a turning point.
The head of European diplomacy, Josep Borrell, called on the EU to support the US decision, as it is. confirm. Minister of Foreign Affairs of Nimecchini Annalena Berbok, what does this mean?
His Lithuanian colleague Gabrielius Landsbergis insists on reconsidering the approach to assistance. “We need a new strategy to help Ukraine, based on the strength and pre-mobilization, and not on the fear of escalation,” he said.
Polish President Andrzej Duda criticized the German call Chancellor Olaf Scholz to the Kremlin dictator and respects that he allowed the attack on Russia to be turned around.
“This decision is no longer necessary. Russia understands that Ukraine has strong support and that Zakhad’s position is simple and decisive. This is an important, potentially pivotal moment in this war,” – Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs Antonio Tajani said about Rome’s unchangeable position. Then Ukraine can stomp the transferred land on its territory.
The head of the Ukrainian Ministry of Health, Peter Szijjártó, excitedly called Washington’s possible decision to “expand the war to a global scale.” In his words, in this manner, the Biden administration is launching “the most powerful attack on the new reality.” Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico respects this “unprecedented escalation with the aim of disrupting or delaying peace negotiations.”
The representative of the Ministry of Health of China, Lin Jian, stated that in the interests of both sides, “the Swedes have taken fire and made political decisions.” The newly elected US President Donald Trump Jr. sharply criticized the possible initiative of the White House. “The military-industrial complex seems to want to start the Third World War before my father has a chance to restore peace and ruin life… Idiot!”, wrote Vine in Microbloz X.
Who and where can the purpose of ATACMS and Storm Shadow
Immediately after the first publications in the information space, maps appeared that in the past explain which Russian territories are being consumed zoni these are the same as other things.
For example, GMLRS missiles (range 80 km, launched from HIMARS systems) reach border areas in several regions, ATACMS at 300 km – to Bryansk, Kursk, Voronezh, Rostov and such “fat targets”, like the Crimean city. And Storm Shadow is at 560 km – to Moscow, Ryazan, Volgograd, Krasnodar, etc.

However, according to Axios, the border is limited to the Kursk region. Meta – to stop the offensive of the Russian troops with the support of the Korean units on the ledge, which is under the control of Ukraine. The destruction of those that led to the recognition of Pyongyang due to the transfer of additional forces.
In the commentary of The War Zone, the head of the Ukrainian military intelligence Kirilo Budanov reported that they are currently in the Kursk region 1 2 thousand Korean soldiers . The total number of the enemy grouping becomes 50,000.
Significantly, for a long time, Ukraine was afraid that it was afraid of blows to shackle it. Washington defended its position against further escalation. On the cob of the sickle after the rape invasion to the Kursk region, Kiev put pressure on it. It was reported that the list of targets had been transferred to the extent of which airfields were being developed to launch strikes by KAB on Ukrainian places. Since that time, Russia has seen all aircraft within range of ATACMS.
According to the interactive map of the Institute of Warfare (ISW), there are at least 245 military targets within a 300 km radius. And if the exchange only concerns the Kursk region, we will lose as many as 15 specific goals, otherwise there may be more with the settlement of training grounds for soldiers from the DPRK.
Therefore possible targets in the Kursk region will be logistics hubs, supply lines, ammunition warehouses, as well as large purchases of special warehouses.
“In front of us, with a strategic focus on the emergency defense. Otherwise, we need to be allowed to hit high-priority targets at the cordon. I would focus not only on military goals, but also on objects military industry, gas stations, power cuts, etc. Our strategy depends on the range of ATACMS we take away,” The War Zone quotes an unnamed Ukrainian top officer.
Aviation expert Kostyantin Krivolap calls the area between ATACMS and the Kursk region disappointing. In my opinion, in the Kursk region and border areas of other regions, strike from HIMARS.
“There is still more nutrition here, but there is no real effect on permission. This is my thought, perhaps, emotional,” said the spivrozmovnik.
Lieutenant General in the military service, great defender of the Chief of the General Staff of the ZSU Igor Romanenko believes that the “green light” potential of ATACMS will lead to much more. The construction of the fence in the Kursk region is insanely necessary, because it is also necessary in other areas of the front.
“We have a small number of them (ATACMS missiles, – ed.), but we believe that this is just the beginning. The approaching partners do not go beyond their “escalation control” algorithm… It is important, however, to remove the fence and “This will be an important encouragement for the Ukrainian Defense Forces,” he said.
The Washington Post, based on unnamed officials, admits that Ukraine may not be bordered by Kursk region. Then the proliferation of missiles could expand into other Russian territories.
The change allowed the end of the war and what Putin said
American “hawks” blame Joe Biden for easily succumbing to Putin’s rhetoric and his consistent approach to the liberation of Ukraine, putting them at a disadvantage on the battlefield. The dignified president’s followers insist that he escaped even more brutal blows from Russia. The potential allowed missiles to be fired at a distant radius, “may change the enemy,” writes NYT.
A key factor in the effectiveness of ATACMS strikes will be the number of missiles Ukraine fires. Although the stink would be good, the remaining sounds would show that Russia could protect itself from them, suffocating high-precision projectiles with the help of REB.
Prote, allowed for attacks on the territory of the Russian Federation to shake up the center of his PPO system in order to weaken on the critical areas. And from London and Paris on winged missiles it was possible to further improve the accuracy of ATACMS. However, in any case, long-range attacks are not a panacea, as they themselves change the course of the war to the benefit of Ukraine. If you want to allow an effective military campaign to be carried out, write to The Spectator.
“The main idea is how many of these missiles are in the Defense Forces so that the situation at the front can be changed and the main problem is reduced It’s possible that things will clear up in the near future. And we’re more than happy with the stagnation of this storm (on the Russian territory, – ed.),” Romanenko says.
Kremlin spokesman Dmitro Peskov said he had allowed the strikes deep into Russia to signify “a new round of tension.” He also recalled Putin’s recent words about what would be regarded as NATO’s participation in the Russian-Ukrainian war, which would “change the very essence of the conflict.”

Political scientist Volodymyr Fesenko pays tribute to Putin’s efforts to protect him. Which threatens to bear witness to this massive attack.
“I don’t think that there will be such a massive attack on the territory of the Russian Federation, as the Russians hit the 17th leaf fall. We will target targets in order to create boundaries, but this is still an important effect for us. In addition, this will mean an increase in prices war for Russia. And the pressure on Russia means strengthening our positions before possible negotiations at the future,” RBC-Ukraine said.
What does Donald Trump say? p>
In my opinion, Russia may be looking at something like an exchange of blows between Israel and Iran, with announcements and a show of force. Or Moscow could transfer anti-ship missiles to the Yemeni Houthis, who are fighting the naval coalition alongside the United States in the Red Sea. “God forbid, our citizens perish. However, as Trump reacts, he will no longer like such speeches,” he added.
The factor of the White House’s upcoming head is important to the satisfaction of what is final Decisions about incoming missile attacks on Russia are being made ahead of Trump's inauguration. And especially with the situation in the country, it is possible to start a war, perhaps due to significant short-term assistance to Ukraine.
In the American tradition, there is a practice of not making harsh decisions when changing the president. However, Washington has clearly decided to show that it is likely to escalate on the side of Moscow. The “green light” of the closing partners will arrive just in time for the final round of Joe Biden’s return. And it seems that Kiev has reached the minimum during the transition period in the United States. Although it is not turned off, it is officially allowed to vote after the fact. After that, videos of ATACMS updates in Russian styles appear in social networks.
