US to send landmines to Ukraine following missile support approval

The U.S. will send "non-persistent" landmines to Ukraine, which become inactive after a set time. This decision follows President Biden's approval of long-range missile strikes against Russia, a shift in policy amid increased military support for Ukraine. The change comes as North Korean troops assist Russian forces, prompting Ukraine to use U.S. missiles to target a Russian military base. Russia has responded with heightened nuclear threats, raising tensions between the two countries. Greenpeace has warned that Russia's attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure pose risks to nuclear power plants. The organization called for immediate action to prevent a potential nuclear disaster, echoing concerns from previous crises in Ukraine's history.
