Biden's Big Challenge to Putin: White House Admits Allowing Ukraine Hitting Deep Inside Russia
The White House has officially confirmed a policy shift, allowing Ukraine to strike targets within Russia using U.S.-supplied Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS).
National Security Council spokesman John Kirby stated that Ukraine now has the green light to deploy these weapons for immediate defensive needs, particularly in areas like Russia's Kursk region.
This move follows heightened speculation over the past week, during which Kyiv reportedly used ATACMS in strikes on Russia’s Bryansk region.
The U.S. and NATO allies have continuously supplied advanced weaponry to Ukraine since 2022 while asserting that this support does not make them direct participants in the conflict.
However, Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly warned of severe repercussions, including nuclear escalation, if NATO’s involvement crosses certain thresholds.
In September, Putin emphasized that Kyiv's use of long-range weapons could alter the nature of the war, effectively drawing NATO into direct confrontation.
In a major escalation of the conflict in eastern Ukraine, Russian forces have taken control of two strategic villages, Petropavlivka and Vremivka, in the Donetsk region. Reports indicate that over 600 homes were cleared to secure Vremivka, with Russian troops dismantling reinforced Ukrainian positions. Celebrating their victory, Putin’s soldiers raised the Russian flag over a building in the village. This operation marks a significant win for Moscow as it targets Ukrainian strongholds in Donetsk. The situation remains tense, with Ukraine yet to comment on these developments. Watch the video for detailed coverage of this unfolding story.

In a historic move, Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian signed a comprehensive cooperation pact in Moscow, solidifying the partnership between two of the world's most heavily sanctioned nations. The treaty aims to enhance military, political, and trade-economic ties, with a focus on regional security, energy collaboration, and the peaceful use of nuclear technology. Both countries seek to counter external interference, especially from the U.S. and NATO, while working on joint projects in sectors like gold and diamond mining, oil, gas, and infrastructure development. The agreement comes just days before Donald Trump's return to power, raising questions about the future of US-Iran relations.

Russian forces have claimed a significant victory near the strategic city of Pokrovsk in Donbass, successfully capturing fortified Ukrainian positions after a fierce assault. A video released by Russia's Ministry of Defense shows the destruction of a German-made Leopard tank, hit by a missile strike. Drone footage captures the devastating moment as the missile strikes the Ukrainian tank, followed by the collapse of a nearby shelter. The attack also involved suicide drones targeting deep trenches and dugout shelters. Despite heavy casualties on both sides, Russian troops have made substantial progress, intensifying the threat to the already vulnerable Pokrovsk. The city remains a crucial supply hub for Ukrainian defenses but is increasingly under pressure from Russian advances.

Donald Trump’s claimed role in brokering a Gaza ceasefire has intensified Arab American frustration with President Biden. Many feel Biden failed to secure peace despite months of opportunity, while Trump’s intervention seemingly pushed Israel to agree. The ceasefire, set to begin Sunday, follows pressure on Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu by Trump’s envoy. Arab American voters, particularly in Michigan, express anger over Biden’s handling of the war, branding him “Genocide Joe” and questioning Democratic support for Palestinian rights. Skepticism remains over the ceasefire’s durability.
