Ukraine says it is prepared to use British long-range missiles – if they were supplied by the UK – to hit Russian forces inside Crimea.

It comes after Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said the UK would step up arms shipments to Kyiv – including discussions on sending Harpoon anti-ship missiles and Storm Shadow cruise missiles.

During President Zelensky's visit to the UK last week, he asked for fighter jets, as well as long-range missiles, to defend against the Russian invasion.

According to defence analyst Dr James Bosbotinis, the missiles would also be "ideal" for targeting Russian air and naval bases in Crimea.
