WASHINGTON—President Biden has for the first time authorized Ukrainian forces to use Western-made long-range weapons to strike inside Russia, allowing Kyiv to better defend itself against Russia, according to U.

Not for the first time, Poland scrambled fighter jets as missiles headed for western Ukraine. And in the capital, Kyiv, fragments from intercepted missiles and drones fell in several places, but there were no reports of injuries.

The attack came as fears are mounting about Moscow’s intentions to devastate Ukraine’s energy capacity before winter.
