"Biden and Zelenskyy Rally Global Support for Ukraine's Defense at UN"

Presidents Joe Biden and Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed the UN General Assembly, with Biden accusing Russia of obstructing peace efforts in Ukraine and Zelenskyy calling for Russia's expulsion from the global body. However, some experts argue that the UN's mission to prevent and end wars has become a "punchline" due to its failures in various conflicts and genocides. Meanwhile, Ukraine denies a New York Times report suggesting that a deadly missile strike in eastern Ukraine was friendly fire, blaming Russian "terrorists" instead. The US has committed to sending M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, with Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin stating that Russia's prolonged war has inflicted immense suffering.
