Ukraine launched six U.S.-made ATACMS missiles at Russia's Bryansk region, according to Russia's Defense Ministry. This follows a recent U.S. policy change allowing Ukraine to use these longer-range weapons in the ongoing conflict. The Russian military reported intercepting five of the missiles, with debris causing a fire at a military facility but no casualties. Ukraine claimed the strikes targeted a military weapons depot, though details remain unverified. Meanwhile, Ukraine faced a series of Russian strikes, including a drone attack in Sumy that killed at least 12 people. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy condemned the attacks, asserting that they demonstrate Russia's unwillingness to pursue peace.
