Most people living in the western world have no idea how close we are to a nuclear showdown with Russia. During the late stages of the Biden administration, there was talk that the U.S. could give Ukraine long-range missiles that could be used to hit cities deep inside Russian territory. Thankfully, the Biden administration decided not to do that because that could have potentially put us right on the brink of nuclear war. Now here we are less than two years later, and it appears that western powers have decided to cross that line. Long-range western missiles are being fired deep into Russian territory, and the Russians are extremely upset about this.

For example, long-range missiles were used to strike a manufacturing facility in the Russian city of Voronezh on Monday…
Ukraine’s military said Monday that it carried out a missile attack against a manufacturing plant in the city of Voronezh that it claims produces electronic components for the Russian military.
Voronezh region Governor Alexander Gusev confirmed that significant damage was inflicted on a local “production facility.” He later said at least five people were killed and dozens of others were wounded, but did not provide further details about the extent of the damage.
“The majority of the plant’s employees managed to reach the shelter in time and remained unharmed, despite the severe damage to the building,” Gusev wrote in a post on Telegram.
The specific type of long-range missile used in that attack has not been confirmed. Some are suggesting that British Storm Shadow cruise missiles were used, while others are suggesting that this was the very first time that AGM-188A Rusty Dagger missiles provided by the United States have been fired into Russia…
While Ukrainian officials did not specify the weapon used, some reports suggest British-supplied Storm Shadow missiles were involved, while Russian sources claim the strike marked the debut of the U.S.-made AGM-188A ‘Rusty Dagger’. The Rusty Dagger is a new air-launched standoff munition with a range over 930 km, designed for Ukraine under the U.S. ERAM program. Neither Ukraine nor the U.S. has confirmed its use, leaving the weapon type unverified.
In either case, this represents a major escalation in the war.
Then on Tuesday, the Russians reported that their air defense systems had successfully destroyed five British Storm Shadow cruise missiles…
Russian air defense forces destroyed five Storm Shadow cruise missiles and 462 drones of the armed forces of Ukraine in the past day, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Tuesday.
“Air defense systems shot down 13 guided aerial bombs, five UK-made Storm Shadow cruise missiles and 462 aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles,” the ministry said.
