Ukraine confirms first strikes inside Russia with US-made missiles
Ukraine has confirmed its first strikes inside Russia using US-made ATACMS missiles, targeting a Russian weapons arsenal. This follows US President Joe Biden's approval for Ukraine to use these long-range weapons, marking a significant escalation in the conflict. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned that Ukraine could lose the war if US military aid is cut. He emphasized the importance of continued support from the United States for Ukraine's survival and success in the conflict. Ukraine is set to receive over $1 billion in its sixth aid package from the IMF, reflecting its economic resilience. Meanwhile, US political figures, including President-elect Donald Trump, have criticized the Biden administration's decision to allow missile strikes inside Russia.
