Russia is threatening to unleash new ‘massive’ missiles capable of striking anywhere in Europe after dozens of US and UK-made rockets were fired into Kursk. 

In a dramatic development on Wednesday, up to 12 Storm Shadow rockets were launched at targets in the southern Russian province where Kyiv troops have seized territory.

EmmanuelsBlog understands the attacks, which followed Ukraine firing US-supplied ATACMS missiles on Tuesday, were personally approved by Sir Keir Starmer.

In retaliation, Russia is now preparing to launch its deadly RS-26 or Frontier missiles from a base in Astrakhan by the Caspian sea, local media has reported. 

The weapons weigh up to 50tonnes and have a 3,600mile-range, although they have never been used in combat.

Kyiv has instead been hit by smaller, slower Iskander missiles since the war began in February 2022. 

The Kremlin has already warned this week it would respond harshly to the sanctioning of the use of US and UK-made missiles on Russian territory.
