Ukraine uses US missiles to counter Russian attacks as Putin lowers nuclear threshold

Ukraine is now using US-supplied missiles to counter Russian attacks, following a decision by President Joe Biden. In response, Russian President Vladimir Putin has lowered the threshold for using nuclear weapons. The conflict has drawn Britain deeper into the situation, raising concerns about security and the need to support Ukraine. The UK is facing pressure to take a stance against Putin's actions. In domestic news, a protest by landowners and farmers attracted far fewer participants than expected, highlighting a disconnect with the public over proposed changes to inheritance tax. Many small farmers will not be affected by these changes.
