Ukraine marks 1,000 days of war as Zelenskyy plans to boost drone and missile production

Ukraine is marking 1,000 days of war with Russia, as President Zelenskyy announces plans to produce 30,000 long-range drones and 3,000 cruise missiles next year. This comes after the U.S. allowed Ukraine to use ATACMS missiles against Russian targets. The Biden administration's decision to permit strikes inside Russia marks a significant shift in U.S. policy. Previously, the U.S. had restricted Ukraine from using American-supplied weapons to target Russian military sites, fearing escalation of the conflict. Reports suggest that the U.K. and France may follow the U.S. lead in supplying long-range missiles to Ukraine. Meanwhile, Russia has increased its nuclear readiness, raising concerns about potential escalation as both sides prepare for future negotiations.
