Ukraine uses long-range missiles against Russia

The Ukrainian government had earlier claimed to have carried out an attack on a Russian arsenal near the city of Karachev, 110 kilometers from the border. According to two Ukrainian press outlets, the attack used missiles from the American ATACMS long-range system, released for use against Russian territory by Joe Biden on Sunday.

On Monday, the Russian government said that the use of weapons against its territory would be considered NATO aggression and that it would respond in a “concrete” way. Today, Putin signed the new Russian nuclear doctrine, which expands the range of situations in which the country’s atomic arsenal can be activated.
