The U.K. sent dozens of long-range Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine several weeks ago, Bloomberg reported, citing sources familiar with the matter.

The delivery, which wasn’t publicly announced, marks the first shipment of these missiles under Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

According to Bloomberg’s sources, the missiles were sent before Washington and London authorized Ukraine to use long-range missiles against targets on Russian territory. The sources did not specify when the missiles arrived in Ukraine or how many were supplied.

Earlier this month, The Guardian reported that the U.K. hadn’t supplied Ukraine with Storm Shadow missiles for some time. Sources cited by The Times suggested the pause may have been due to low stock levels.

Ukraine’s Armed Forces reportedly used British Storm Shadow missiles to strike Russian territory for the first time on November 20.
