KYIV, Ukraine (AP) \u2014 Ukraine fired six American-supplied longer-range missiles at Russia\u2019s Bryansk region, Moscow said Tuesday, in what would be Kyiv\u2019s first use of the weapons inside Russia in 1,000 days of war<\/a><\/span>.
The reported use of the Army Tactical Missile System, known as ATACMS<\/a><\/span>, came as Russian President Vladimir Putin formally lowered the threshold<\/a><\/span> for using nuclear weapons, opening the door to a potential nuclear response by Moscow to even a conventional attack by any nation supported by a nuclear power. That could include Ukrainian attacks backed by the U.S.
A Telegram channel affiliated with the Ukrainian military posted a video Tuesday that it says shows U.S.-supplied ATACMS missiles being fired from an undisclosed location in Ukraine. The Associated Press could not independently verify the date and location the video was filmed.
The developments marked a worrying new escalation in the conflict that has repeatedly ratcheted up international tensions. U.S. officials recently expressed dismay at Russia\u2019s deployment of North Korean troops<\/a><\/span> to help it fight Ukraine, while Moscow seethed<\/a><\/span> when Washington eased restrictions<\/a><\/span> on the ATACMS in recent days.<\/p>\n

The 1,000-day mark has magnified scrutiny of how the war is unfolding and how it might end, amid signs that a turning point may be coming with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump entering the White House in about two months\u2019 time. Trump has pledged to swiftly end the war and has criticized the amount the U.S. has spent on supporting Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Neither Russia nor Ukraine can sustain the war for a long time, analysts say, though Russia is able to keep going for longer due to its vaster resources.
Ukraine\u2019s forces are under severe Russian pressure on the battlefield at places on the about 1,000-kilometer (600-mile) front line where its army is stretched thin<\/a><\/span>. Ukrainian civilians, meanwhile, have repeatedly been clobbered<\/a><\/span> by Russian drones and missiles.
On Tuesday, Ukraine claimed it hit a military weapons depot in Russia\u2019s Bryansk region in the middle of the night, though it didn\u2019t specify what weapons it used. The Ukrainian General Staff said that multiple explosions and detonations were heard in the targeted area, around Karachev.
AP correspondent Charles de Ledesma has more on Vladimir Putin\u2019s doctrine of nuclear deterrence.
Asked at a news conference if Ukraine had struck the Bryansk region ammunition depot with ATACMS, Ukraine\u2019s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy declined to provide any details. However, he said, \u201cUkraine has long-range capabilities, including domestically produced long-range drones\u2026 and now we have ATACMS as well.\u201d.
In a statement carried by Russian news agencies, the Russian Defense Ministry said the military shot down five ATACMS<\/a><\/span> missiles and damaged one more. The fragments fell on the territory of an unspecified military facility, the ministry said. The falling debris sparked a fire, but didn\u2019t cause any damage or casualties, it said.
Neither side\u2019s claims could be independently verified.
Karachev is roughly 115 kilometers (70 miles) from the Russia-Ukraine border. Ukraine in the course of the war has been able to reach much deeper into the vast country — but with drones rather than missiles. For instance, Russian officials have reported intercepting Ukrainian drones over Moscow, which is about 500 kilometers (310 miles) from the border and most recently Izhevsk, a city about 1,450 kilometers (900 miles) from the frontier.
Earlier on Tuesday, Ukrainian officials reported a third Russian strike in as many days on a residential area in Ukraine killed at least 12 people, including a child.
The strike by a Shahed drone in the northern Sumy region late Monday hit a dormitory of an educational facility in the town of Hlukhiv and wounded 11 others, including two children, authorities said, adding that more people could be trapped under the rubble.
On Sunday, a Russian ballistic missile with cluster munitions struck a residential area of Sumy in northern Ukraine, killing 11 people and wounding 84 others. On Monday, a Russian missile barrage sparked apartment fires in the southern port of Odesa, killing at least 10 people and wounding 43.
Zelenskyy said that the series of aerial strikes proved that Putin wasn\u2019t interested in ending the war.
\u201cEach new attack by Russia only confirms Putin\u2019s true intentions. He wants the war to continue. Talks about peace are not interesting to him. We must force Russia to a just peace by force,\u201d Zelenskyy said.
Zelenskyy told European Union lawmakers in a speech via video link that Russia has deployed about 11,000 North Korean troops along Ukraine\u2019s borders and that the number could swell to 100,000.
He appeared in person at the Ukrainian parliament, where he presented what he called a \u201cresilience plan\u201d to dig in against the relentless Russian onslaught. He said he expects pivotal moments to occur in the war next year.
The plan outlines new approaches to army management, including the creation of a military ombudsman position and a new system of handling military contracts.
There are no plans to lower the mobilization age from the current 25, even though Ukraine is short-handed on the front line, especially in infantry.
Ukraine urgently needs to tackle its manpower difficulties on the front, but it can use the longer-range missiles in the meantime to slow the tempo of Russia\u2019s recent advances, said Jack Watling, an analyst at the Royal United Services Institute, a London think tank.
\u201cUkraine\u2019s partners can do little to change the character of the fighting on the line of contact, but by targeting capabilities that are currently giving Russia a battlefield advantage, time can be bought,\u201d Watling wrote Tuesday.
Next year, Zelenskyy said, Ukraine plans to produce at least 30,000 long-range drones and aims to manufacture 3,000 long-range missiles, reducing its dependence on Western military support.
A fuller version of the plan will be presented next month, he said.
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said Western countries are debating further help for Ukraine \u2014 \u201cmore aid, more money we have to make available to them, particularly now that the North Koreans have come on board,\u201d he said in Brussels.
Meanwhile, European Parliament President Roberta Metsola led a special plenary session on Ukraine marking \u201cone thousand days of terror, suffering and unimaginable loss. One thousand days of courage, resilience and unbreakable spirits.\u201d
\u201cYour people are an inspiration to all who value freedom around the world,\u201d she told Zelenskyy.
