MOSCOW: Ukraine’s armed forces command is plotting to deliver strikes on Russian territory, including Crimea, with HIMARS rockets and Storm Shadow missiles, Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu said at a ministry board meeting on Tuesday.
"According to our data, the leadership of the Ukrainian armed forces is planning to deliver strikes on the territory of the Russian Federation, including Crimea, with HIMARS [rockets] and Storm Shadow missiles," he said.
The top military official stressed that the use of these weapons outside of the special military operation zone would trigger immediate strikes by Russia on decision-making centers in Ukraine and would imply the full-fledged involvement of the US and UK in the conflict.
Additionally, Shoigu noted that the Kiev regime is continuing its attempts to mount attacks south of Donetsk and in the Zaporozhye and Donetsk areas, engaging its elite NATO-trained units as well as a large number of Western-supplied weapons.
"Since June 4, the Ukrainian army has launched 263 attacks on the positions of Russian troops. Thanks to the competent, selfless actions of our units, they were all repelled and the adversary did not achieve its goals," he said.
