Details
The Biden administration has approved Ukraine's use of U.S. anti-personnel mines to slow down the russian offensive on the battlefield. This was the second major change in US policy in the last week, following the authorization of Ukraine to use longer-range US-made missiles to strike targets in russia.
US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin explained that the decision to supply anti-personnel mines was dictated by the change in the tactics of the russian army.
russian ground troops control the movement on the battlefield, are more protected in armored vehicles, so Ukraine needs things that can help slow down these efforts on the part of the russians

The Pentagon announced the 70th tranche of military aid to Ukraine worth $275 million. The package includes ammunition for HIMARS, artillery, anti-tank systems, UAVs, and other equipment.
