Russian President Vladimir Putin has issued a stark warning to the West, stating that the provision of long-range arms to Ukraine would mean that NATO countries are directly at war with Russia. Putin emphasized that allowing Kyiv to use longer-range weapons to strike Russian targets would signal direct NATO involvement in the conflict. He further claimed that Ukraine is using data and intelligence from NATO countries to coordinate these strikes. Putin's remarks come amid reports that the UK and US may facilitate long-range Storm Shadow Missiles for Ukraine, which he described as a declaration of war. He also mentioned the use of high-precision Western weapons in these strikes.
