Ukraine says it wrecked Russian submarine with British cruise missiles
Kyiv confirmed it was behind Wednesday’s attack on the port of Sevastopol, in a rare admission.
Ukraine on Thursday confirmed it wrecked a Russian submarine with British weapons, during a missile attack on the Black Sea port of Sevastopol in Russian-occupied Crimea.
The Russian cruise missile carrier — the Rostov-on-Don — was significantly damaged in the massive Ukrainian strike, as was Kremlin warship the Minsk.
A senior Ukrainian military official confirmed to POLITICO that Ukrainian pilots used the British cruise missile Storm Shadow for the attack.
There goes another "red line" without any meaningful response from russia.
There used to be a Soviet saying about "China's Final Warning".
What kind of red line? Sevastopol is on invaded ground.
Maybe they mean the supply of long range weapons by the UK
Edit. The 'French company' is Matra, I don't know why they chose to name BAe but not them, seems churlish
