Ukraine uses US missiles to strike Russian arms depot on war's 1000th day
Ukraine has launched an attack on Russian territory using US ATACMS missiles for the first time, striking an arms depot about 110 km inside Russia. This follows recent approval from the Biden administration. Russia claims to have intercepted most missiles, with minimal damage reported. The attack coincides with the 1000th day of the war, as Ukraine faces ongoing challenges, including airstrikes and territorial losses. President Zelenskiy emphasized the need for a diplomatic resolution, while military experts suggest the missile use may not significantly alter the war's dynamics. In response, Russia has updated its nuclear doctrine, lowering the threshold for potential nuclear use. The situation has caused market jitters, with concerns about escalating tensions and the impact of Donald Trump's potential return to power on US support for Ukraine.
