Russia claims Ukraine has launched US-supplied long-range missiles at a military site in the Bryansk region. This marks the first reported attack since the US authorized Ukraine to use such missiles against targets in Russia. US President Joe Biden's decision to allow these strikes represents a significant shift in US policy. Ukraine had been urging for this approval to better defend against Russian attacks. In response, Russia has expanded its nuclear weapons doctrine. President Vladimir Putin's new decree states that Russia may consider using nuclear weapons if attacked by a non-nuclear state supported by nuclear powers.
