Ukraine marks 1,000 days of conflict as battles intensify against Russia
Ukraine has marked 1,000 days since Russia's invasion, with ongoing battles and heavy casualties. President Biden has approved the use of U.S. missiles against deeper Russian targets, but experts say this alone won't change the war's trajectory. As winter approaches, Russia has intensified its attacks, launching a significant missile barrage. Ukrainian forces are engaged in trench warfare, with both sides seeking to improve their positions ahead of any potential negotiations. Ukraine continues to demand a full Russian withdrawal and security guarantees from the West. Meanwhile, diplomatic efforts are emerging, including a recent call between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and President Putin, signaling a possible shift in discussions.
