In a significant escalation of the Ukraine-Russia conflict, Ukraine has reportedly used US-supplied long-range ATACMS missiles to strike targets in Russia for the first time. The move comes after President Biden authorized Ukraine to deploy these advanced munitions, heightening tensions between the two nations. Russian authorities claim to have shot down some of these missiles and have issued nuclear threats in response. The Kremlin asserts that this first use of US-made missiles signifies a potential escalation orchestrated by the West. As Ukraine gears up for more strikes, concerns grow about the implications of US involvement in the conflict and the potential for a broader war.
