foxnews.com

Ukrainian forces launched six U.S.-made ATACMs into Russian territory, according to Moscow. Russia claimed to have shot down five missiles, with debris landing near a military facility, causing a small fire but no casualties. This attack follows President Biden's recent approval for Ukraine to use long-range missiles against Russia. The decision was influenced by Russia's invitation for North Korean soldiers to join the conflict. Russian President Putin has previously warned that such missile use would signify direct NATO involvement in the war. He has not yet responded to the reported missile strikes.
