US to supply antipersonnel mines to Ukraine with usage conditions
The U.S. will supply antipersonnel mines to Ukraine, with conditions on their use in sparsely populated areas. This decision comes as President Biden seeks to enhance military support before President-elect Trump takes office, who has shown reluctance to continue aid. The U.S. Embassy in Kyiv has closed due to warnings of a potential air attack, advising personnel and citizens to shelter in place and stay alert for air raid sirens. South Korea reports that North Korea is increasing military support for Russia, including sending artillery and troops. Approximately 10,900 North Korean soldiers are reportedly involved in combat operations in Russia.
