Ukraine's top commander shared striking footage of the ATACMS launch on Telegram.
The US quietly supplied Ukraine with a small number of the long-range missiles in recent days following more than a year of back-and-forth.
Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief Valerii Zaluzhnyi shared footage of the launch of US supplied ATACMS tactical ballistic missiles on his Telegram channel.
Ukraine had long asked for the long-range missiles, which allow its forces to safely target Russian positions situated further back without having to approach the front lines.
