Ukraine marks 1,000 days since Russian invasion as missile strikes continue
Ukraine is marking 1,000 days since Russia's full-scale invasion, with ongoing battles and frequent missile strikes. A recent attack on Odesa killed 10 and injured 44, including children. President Zelenskyy condemned the strikes as deliberate acts of war. Germany has reportedly delivered 4,000 strike drones to Ukraine, while Britain is expected to allow the use of Storm Shadow missiles against Russian targets. This follows U.S. approval for Ukraine to use long-range Atacms missiles, enhancing Ukraine's strike capabilities. The international chemical weapons watchdog found banned riot gas in areas where Russian forces operate, raising concerns about chemical weapon use. Meanwhile, North Korea's leader met with Russian officials amid accusations of North Korean troop support for Russia in the conflict.
