"Controversy Surrounding US Supply of Cluster Munitions to Ukraine"

Some NATO allies, including the UK and Spain, criticized President Biden's decision to send cluster bombs to Ukraine, citing concerns about civilian casualties. However, Ukrainian officials welcomed the move, stating that it would enhance their defense capabilities. As fighting continued on the 500th day since Russia invaded Ukraine, eight civilians were killed in a rocket attack. Both Russian and Ukrainian officials have accused each other of planning to sabotage the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. Meanwhile, President Zelenskyy marked the occasion by visiting Snake Island and honoring the soldiers who fought to defend it. Additionally, five commanders of the defense at the Azovstal steel plant, who were captured by Russian forces, were returning to Ukraine.
