Ukraine strikes Russian military installation in Bryansk just one day after Biden authorizes use of U.S.-made, long-range ATACMs missiles

The Volodymyr Zelensky regime is wasting no time bombing Russia with U.S.-made, long-range missiles, which were just approved for use in the Russia-Ukraine war by President Joe Biden.

Roughly one day after Biden authorized Ukraine to use the MGM-140 Army Tactical Missile System deep within Russian territory, blatantly crossing President Vladimir Putin’s famous “red lines,” Kiev was already sending missiles to blow up a military installation in Russia’s western Bryansk region.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov responded to Biden’s authorization of long-range missile use by Ukraine by warning that Moscow is now free to respond with nuclear weapons if it decides this is the best route to take to protect its interests.

“The use of Western, non-nuclear rockets by the Armed Forces of Ukraine against Russia can prompt a nuclear response,” Peskov said.

Ukraine strikes Russia with ATACMS ballistic missiles for first time

The RBC Ukraine news agency published a report to coincide with Biden’s authorization that highlights the historic nature of the outgoing president’s decision.

“For the first time, Ukraine’s Defense Forces struck Russian territory with ATACMS ballistic missiles,” RBC reported.

According to RBC, the Bryansk military installation, located about 115 kilometers (about 71 miles) from Russia’s border with Ukraine, was successfully hit in the attack.

“Indeed, for the first time, we used ATACMS to strike Russian territory,” an unnamed source added to the local media outlet. “The strike was carried out against a facility in the Bryansk region, and it was successfully hit.”

The Kyiv Post also reported that the 67th arsenal of the Main Directorate of the Missile and Artillery Directorate of Russia was also hit in a long-range missile attack. That facility was loaded up with stockpiles of anti-aircraft missiles, munitions for use in multiple different rocket systems, artillery ammunition, guided bombs and other weapons mostly supplied to Russia by North Korea.

Bloomberg confirmed that a total of five missiles were shot down, one of them damaged and with no casualties reported. There was, however, a fire that started at the Bryansk military installation due to missile debris – check out the below video for another angle of the attack:

Putin is responding to the move with his own changes to Russia’s nuclear doctrine. According to Peskov, the modifications made by Putin signal that Russia can now attack the West with nuclear weapons, which would almost certainly ignite World War III.

The Western markets reacted by plunging. Both U.S. equity futures and European equities dropped substantially following the news while global bonds climbed, this further suggesting that WWIII is at the door.

“The market reaction is logical,” claims Andrea Tueni, head of sales at the trading outlet Saxo Banque France. “One could feel already yesterday that the tension was rising. For the moment, the market reaction is contained. Some are still in a wait-and-see mode.”
