Ukrainian ATACMS strikes deep in the rear of Russia. At the same time, new arms supply is used for Russian troops and air defense points. Newsweek writes about it. Analysts, referring to open sources, associate a series of destructive attacks of Ukraine on Moscow's objects in recent weeks with the US Army tactical missile systems (ATACMS).

ATACMS has long been in the list of requests of Ukraine, so Kiev receives fire strength for the task of strikes on valuable Russian objects on the front line. Ukraine began to use ATCMS systems in October 2023. At first it was a cassette version of rockets. At the end of April National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said that President Joe Biden was sanctioned by the departure of "a large number of ATACMS missiles" to Ukraine.

They were part of a $ 300 million assistance package announced in mid -March, and they have already arrived in Ukraine for use within its borders, Sullivan said last month. The recently presented ATACMS refers to larger rockets capable of striking deeper areas controlled by Russia. Western allies of Ukraine warned Kiev that weapons are intended for use only in the occupied territory, not districts, internationally recognized as part of the Russian Federation.
