Russia’s Defense Ministry said it had “failed” the attack overnight, although it did not say whether any damage was caused by the missile’s debris.
The US confirmed in April that it had sent the missiles to Ukraine. Ukraine was pushing him to attack targets located far from the frontline.
Ukraine used US ATACMS missiles for the first time in an attack against Russia in October. The version of the missile recently given to it has a range of up to 300 km.
Russia says the missiles will not change the outcome of the conflict.
Ukrainian forces are suffering from a shortage of ammunition. This is due, in part, to months of delays in receiving deliveries from America. The aid package was approved by the US Congress last month.
