Reportedon one origin only: 0 distinct origins, 0 tied to no party.
Russia's defence ministry said six ATACMS ballistic missiles were fired at a facility in Bryansk Oblast at 03:25 Moscow time, that five were shot down and one damaged, and that debris caused a fire at a military site with no casualties. Ukraine's General Staff said it hit an ammunition depot near Karachev and recorded 12 secondary explosions, without naming the weapon. The strike followed reports on 17 November that President Biden had allowed Ukraine to use ATACMS against targets inside Russia; Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the change signalled a new round of tensions.
