Over a thousand days on, Russia-Ukraine war enters uncharted territory
FirstpostRussia’s employment of the latest lethal and novel firepower—and its threat of more to come—must be seen as a moment of heightened uncertainty ahead of President-elect Donald Trump’s return to the White House Russian soldiers fire Giatsint-S self-propelled gun towards Ukrainian positions at an undisclosed location in the Russian - Ukrainian border area in the Kursk region, Russia. Joe Biden, a couple of days before the war turned 1,000 days, permitted Ukraine the use of long-range ballistic missiles, named the Army Tactical Missile System, or ATACMS, in its war with Russia. Various reports confirm that on November 19, the 1000th day of the war, Ukraine fired six US-made ATACMS missiles at Russia’s Bryansk region. Putin, in a televised speech, just said that Russia had employed a medium-range “non-nuclear hypersonic ballistic” missile dubbed “Oreshnik” to strike a military factory in Ukraine’s eastern city of Dnipro in response to the Biden administration’s latest decision authorising Ukraine to fire US-made ATACMS missiles, with a range of up to 190 miles, into Russia as part of the ongoing war.
