The German publication Bild, citing a military expert, reported that Ukraine probably received Storm Shadow missiles from Great Britain with a greater range than officially reported.

Retired Bundeswehr General and military expert Erhard Bühler said that otherwise Ukraine would not have been able to destroy the large landing ship Novocherkassk in Feodosia.
This port was 250 km from the front line in a straight line, but the missiles certainly would not have flown the same way if they had been launched from there. They launched it deep into the territory that is under the control of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
The cruise missile was supposed to fly more than 250 km over the occupied territory. To do this, you need to know where the radar and air defense positions are located. This is not done just like that,” General Bueller said.
This means that Ukraine has cruise missiles with a real range of 400 km and the freedom of movement of the Black Sea Fleet is significantly limited.
Now Feodosia, one of the last Crimean ports considered safe, is no longer a safe port for Russia. Due to numerous secondary explosions, it is clear that the landing craft was carrying a large amount of ammunition. We know that these ships are used by the Russians as transport vessels,” said the military expert.
