ABC News reports: "Ukraine uses US-supplied long-range missiles for 1st time in Russia airbase attack."
Ukraine has used U.S.-supplied ATAMCS long-range missiles for the first time in its war against Russia, hitting two Russian airbases in occupied Ukrainian territory in strikes that Ukraine and some Russian sources said had caused significant damage.
The missiles hit a Russian military airfield in Berdyansk in southern Ukraine and another in Lugansk in the northeast on Tuesday, according to both Russian and Ukrainian officials.
Ukraine's General Staff said the attacks had destroyed nine helicopters, as well as an ammunition dump, air defense system and also damaged the airfield's runways. Russian officials did not provide details on the scale of the damage, but one prominent Russian pro-war blogger wrote the strikes were perhaps the most serious against Russian military aviation since the start of the invasion.
Last gasp. Nearly done.
