    My predictions following the discourse of storm Shadow missiles

    ✅ Ukraine hits a bunch of targets that Russia has largely evacuated ahead of this news thanks to the massive press coverage of these weapons. If they're lucky they strike a few useful targets.

    ✅ Russia retaliates with demonstration of superior military industry/stockpiles.

    ✅ Ukraine continues to lose the war. Can't maintain the ground and/or stockpiles to continue "deep strikes"

      I expect this is the most likely scenario as well. The worrying part is that Russia may choose to hit the UK or France as they already said they would see perfectly justified doing. At that point things could escalate very quickly.
