Biden authorizes long-range missiles for Ukraine as tensions rise with Russia

President Joe Biden has authorized Ukrainian forces to use American long-range missiles against Russian targets, marking a significant change in U.S. policy. Ukraine plans to deploy ATACMS missiles in the Kursk region after facing military setbacks. Donald Trump Jr. has alleged that the Biden administration is using U.S. support for Ukraine to provoke a major conflict. This comes as Ukraine prepares to utilize the newly authorized missiles for strategic strikes. China has called for a peaceful resolution to the conflict, urging for a ceasefire and political solution. Meanwhile, Ukraine reported a large-scale Russian missile assault, with its defenses intercepting a majority of the incoming threats.
