Ukraine has launched ATACMS missiles at Russia, marking a significant escalation in the conflict. This follows U.S. President Joe Biden's recent approval for Ukraine to use these long-range weapons, shifting from a previous focus on reducing conflict. In response, Russian President Vladimir Putin has authorized the potential use of nuclear weapons. This development raises tensions as the war, ongoing since 2022, has already resulted in substantial casualties and damage on both sides. The conflict has intensified amid Ukraine's military struggles and dwindling troop numbers. The situation remains critical as both nations navigate this dangerous phase of the war.
