Moscow warns US over longer-range missile support for Ukraine

Moscow has condemned President Biden's decision to provide Ukraine with longer-range missiles that can strike targets in Russia. The Kremlin warned this move could escalate the conflict, coinciding with deadly missile attacks on Ukrainian cities. The U.S. is easing restrictions on Ukraine's use of American-made missiles, a shift from previous policy aimed at avoiding direct confrontation with Russia. This change comes as North Korean troops are reportedly deployed in Ukraine, raising tensions further. Russian officials expressed strong opposition, claiming the U.S. decision could lead to a significant escalation in the war. Some NATO allies welcomed the move, viewing it as a necessary response to increased Russian attacks on Ukraine.
