“The critical phase of the war has begun in Ukraine”, – British Defense Minister says

The war in Ukraine has entered a critical phase.

This was stated by British Defense Minister John Healey following talks with the defense ministers of Germany, Italy, Poland, and France.

“The war in Ukraine has entered a critical phase, and the time has come for Europe to do more to ensure its security and collective defense. We are jointly strengthening NATO’s eastern borders, enhancing cooperation in the development of air defense systems and long-range missiles. We are also working on increasing joint industrial programs with our defense industry enterprises,” the minister said.

According to Healey, “global threats are intensifying.”

Meanwhile, Bloomberg, citing sources, reported that Britain has recently sent “several dozen” Storm Shadow missiles to Ukraine.

The missiles were sent even before London authorized strikes on Russian territory using its own missiles.

However, British authorities have not officially confirmed any of this, nor have they confirmed the use of these missiles to strike the Kursk region, as claimed recently by Kremlin leader Vladimir Putin.
