<p>Ukraine&#8217;s military fired several long-range American missiles into Russia this week on the 1,000th day of the war, marking the first time it has done so since Russia invaded back in early 2022.</p>
<p>Six American-made ATACMS missiles were used in the pre-dawn attack that struck an ammunition depot in Russia&#8217;s Bryansk region. Russia claimed it shot down five of the six missiles, but that information had not been independently verified.</p>
<p>The attack came just a couple of days after President Joe Biden authorized Ukraine to use America-made missiles for strikes inside Russia after resisting Ukraine&#8217;s requests to do so for many months.</p>
<p>Some analysts were concerned that the strikes represented an escalation in the war, while others believed that the strikes strengthened Ukraine&#8217;s negotiating position ahead of President-elect Donald Trump coming back into office. Trump has pledged to force a quick end to the war.</p>
<p>The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/19/world/europe/ukraine-russia-atacms-missiles.html">reported</a> that the event that changed Biden&#8217;s mind about Ukraine being able to use the missiles was North Korea sending thousands of soldiers into Ukraine to fight for the Russians.</p>
<p>A Ukrainian official said the strike hit warehouses containing “artillery ammunition, including North Korean ammunition for their systems.”</p>
<p>On the same day as the strike, Russian President Vladimir Putin lowered his country&#8217;s threshold for using nuclear weapons — a move that had been anticipated since at least September when it was first <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/11/19/ukraine-russia-atacms-bryansk/">announced</a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.amiracist.com/?_gl=1*jtghwp*_gcl_au*ODQ1NjYzNTg2LjE3Mjg5MDk3OTE.*_ga*MTc2NzM0NDQ2NS4xNzI4OTA5Nzkx*_ga_CZKR9ZYKJP*MTczMDEyMDgwOS40OS4xLjE3MzAxMjA4MzkuMzAuMC4w" target="_blank" rel="noopener"><strong>MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+</strong></a></p>
<p>The new doctrine <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/11/19/world/europe/putin-russia-nuclear-weapons-missiles.html">states</a>: “Aggression against the Russian Federation and (or) its allies by any nonnuclear state with the participation or support of a nuclear state is considered as their joint attack.”</p>
<p>The White House National Security Council was not surprised by Putin lowering the country&#8217;s threshold for using nuclear weapons, <a href="https://www.yahoo.com/news/ukraine-fires-first-barrage-us-125339630.html">according</a> to Fox News.</p>
<p>&#8220;Observing no changes to Russia’s nuclear posture, we have not seen any reason to adjust our own nuclear posture or doctrine in response to Russia’s statements today,&#8221; an NSC spokesperson said. &#8220;This is more of the same irresponsible rhetoric from Russia, which we have seen for the past two years.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;As we said to Russia weeks ago, Russia’s use of DPRK soldiers in combat operations against Ukraine presents a significant escalation of its war of choice against Ukraine and we warned that the United States would respond,&#8221; the spokesperson added. &#8220;I won’t get into the details of that response today.&#8221;</p>
