Ukraine fires UK Storm Shadow missiles into Russia
Listen now
Description
Ukraine has fired UK-supplied Storm Shadow missiles into Russian territory for the first time, the BBC understands. The government has declined to comment on the reports, which first emerged on Russian Telegram channels. We speak to former senior military leaders in the UK and US about what advantage the missiles might bring Ukraine, and hear about the brutal conditions on the front lines. Also on the programme, Northern Rail has submitted plans to improve services by 2027. We examine the impact the under-fire operator is having on local areas. And we remember Vic Flick, the man who's unforgettable guitar riff became the soundtrack for James Bond.
