Ukraine to get US land mines for use against Russian forces: Reports

US President Joe Biden has approved providing antipersonnel land mines to Ukraine in what has been seen as another policy reversal on weapons provided to Kyiv by the outgoing United States administration, according to reports. The US expects Ukraine to use the land mines in its own territory, though it has committed not to use them in areas populated with civilians, a US official told the Reuters news agency on Wednesday. Meanwhile, The United States embassy in Kyiv says it has received “specific information of a potential significant air attack” today, prompting it to shutter its doors.
