06:09 – CNN: Biden ready to send long-range missiles to Kiev
The Biden administration is preparing to send more powerful weapons to Ukraine as part of a new package next week. Administration sources report this to CNN. In particular, these would be long-range missile systems, Multiple Launch Rocket System or MLRS, which Volodymyr Zelensky has been asking for for some time. The weapons, manufactured in the United States, can fire a barrage of rockets for hundreds of kilometers, far farther than any other system already in Ukraine, and according to Kiev could be the turning point in their war against Russia. The news comes at a time of great difficulty for Ukrainian troops, subjected to pressing bombings in the Donbass. Another system required by Ukraine is the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System or HIMARS, which is lighter than Mlrs but capable of firing the same type of ammunition. So far Biden had avoided sending these systems for fear that Ukraine could use them to attack inside Russian territory resulting in a reaction from Moscow.

They allow to cover great distances, around 150 kilometers, and of travel along paths inaccessible to other motor vehicles. They can therefore carry out sniping attacks, perhaps by snipers and allow reconnaissance that goes unnoticed (and unheard of). In fact, the electric engine is not only silent but does not emit heat, effectively canceling the thermal detection systems used by the Russians to find motor vehicles.
