Biden lifts restrictions on Ukraine using US weapons for strikes in Russia
President Joe Biden's administration has lifted restrictions on Ukraine using US weapons to strike deep into Russia. This change follows months of requests from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy and comes amid concerns over Russia's deployment of North Korean troops. Ukraine plans to launch its first long-range attacks soon, likely using ATACMS rockets with a range of up to 190 miles. The White House has not commented on the specifics of the decision. The move may improve Ukraine's position as Russian forces gain ground. It remains uncertain if president-elect Donald Trump will reverse this policy when he takes office in January.
