The U.S. has authorized Ukraine to use long-range American missiles against military targets in Russia. This decision, confirmed by a U.S. official, marks a significant policy shift in response to North Korea's support for Russia's war efforts. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has sought this approval for the Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) for some time. The move has drawn criticism from allies of former President Donald Trump, who view it as a dangerous escalation. In related developments, Ukraine announced emergency power restrictions following a Russian attack that killed 11 civilians. The assault has further strained Ukraine's energy infrastructure as winter approaches, prompting international condemnation.
