Russia would shoot down Tomahawk cruise missiles and strike any launch sites used to fire them if the United States supplies the weapons to Ukraine, a senior Russian lawmaker warned on Wednesday, escalating rhetoric as Washington weighs Kyiv’s request. Andrei Kartapolov, head of the Russian parliament’s defence committee and a former deputy defence minister, told state news agency RIA that Moscow’s response would be “tough, ambiguous, measured, and asymmetrical.” “We will find ways to hurt those who cause us trouble,” he said, forecasting strikes on operators and launch infrastructure rather than direct attacks on US soil.
