The UK meanwhile approved Ukraine’s use of Storm Shadow cruise missiles on deeper targets. Germany had long refused to deliver the long-range Taurus cruise missile, though Merz has expressed approval of its use.

China’s BYD sold more EVs than Tesla in Europe for the first time last month, according to market researcher Jato Dynamics.
