"The Ukrainian army plans to strike at the territory of Russia, including Crimea, with HIMARS and Storm Shadow missiles, Shoigu said.

The use of these missiles outside the special operation zone will mean the full involvement of the US and Britain in the conflict and will entail immediate strikes on decision-making centers in Ukraine," the Russian Minister of Defense warned.

So...No consequences at all then? Lmao.

Look at how pathetic Russia's threats are now, "IF YOU USE HIMARS AND STORM SHADOW ON CRIMEA THEN WE WILL ATTACK...UKRAINE!"

As if they aren't already desperately trying to strike decision-making centres in Kyiv, Lol.

DoD has 'fucked up' a bit more and overestimated the amount sent to Ukraine by $6.2bn, Lol.

First time that America fucking up their audits is a good thing, a good thing for Ukraine at least.
