A Ukrainian MP stated that using longer-range U.S. missiles against Russia is not a guaranteed solution for victory. Mariia Ionova called for a new strategy from Western leaders, emphasizing the need for an air shield and increased military support. The Biden administration has lifted restrictions, allowing Ukraine to use U.S.-made Atacms rockets to strike inside Russia. This decision follows concerns over North Korean troop deployments by Russia, according to the Dutch foreign minister. In Ukraine, rolling power cuts are expected, affecting most regions, including Kyiv. Meanwhile, recent Russian strikes in Kherson and Sumy have resulted in multiple casualties, with the death toll in Sumy rising to 11, including two children.
