Russia launches new missile as tensions rise with Ukraine and North Korea
Russia has launched a new ballistic missile, signaling a warning to Ukraine and its Western allies amid escalating tensions. The missile, equipped with multiple warheads, was used in response to Ukraine's recent strikes on Russian territory. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un also issued nuclear threats, accusing the U.S. of increasing regional tensions. Reports indicate a deepening alliance between Russia and North Korea, with Russia supplying military equipment in exchange for North Korean troops. Despite these developments, the U.S. and NATO reaffirmed their support for Ukraine. Officials downplayed the impact of Russia's new missile, stating it would not change the conflict's course or deter military aid to Ukraine.
