Ukraine attacks Russia with UK-made missiles

Ukraine has fired UK-supplied 🚀 Storm Shadow missiles at targets inside Russia for the first time. Previously, Ukraine was only allowed to use these long-range missiles within its own borders.

This development follows a recent authorization from the U.S. for Ukraine to use American-supplied missiles against Russian territory. The Ukrainian officials have not confirmed the strikes yet.

The Storm Shadow missile is particularly effective against 🎯 fortified targets, making it a crucial asset for Ukraine as it seeks to counter Russian military operations.

Jaguar confusing rebrand gamble

Jaguar, the British luxury 🚗 car brand, is facing backlash over its new promotional video for a rebrand that emphasizes diversity but features no cars.

Critics, including 🚀 Elon Musk, have questioned the brand's direction, with Musk asking, “Do you sell cars?”

The rebranding aims to transition Jaguar towards an 🔋 all-electric future with a new logo and marketing slogan "Copy Nothing." However, experts warn that abandoning the brand's heritage as a 🏎 high-performance sports car could even make traditional customers turn away.
