Ukraine Uses Western Weapons for Strikes Inside Russia

Ukraine has reportedly used US-supplied HIMARS rocket launchers to strike targets in Russia, marking a significant escalation in the conflict. This follows a recent policy shift by President Joe Biden allowing limited use of these weapons on Russian soil. The attacks, which included hitting a Russian S-300 air defense system, signal a new phase in the war and come after months of appeals from Ukrainian officials for permission to target Russian territory.
