1,000 Days of War: Russia's Deepening Conflict in Ukraine
In a dramatic escalation of the Ukraine conflict, the US authorized Ukraine to use American-supplied missiles against Russia, prompting Moscow to respond with an experimental missile strike on Dnipro. This missile, dubbed "Oreshnik" by Russia and "Kedr" by Ukraine, is a medium-range, hypersonic weapon capable of carrying multiple warheads. The situation has intensified geopolitical tensions, with the US and Russia accusing each other of recklessness, while Ukraine faces increasing pressure on the front lines. The developments come amid broader geopolitical maneuvers, including a controversial call between German Chancellor Olaf Scholz and Russian President Vladimir Putin.
