Reminder
A bill to strengthen sanctions against Russia, which the U.S. Senate supported by an overwhelming majority last month, has faced resistance in the House of Representatives and may remain without a vote until the November 3 midterm elections.
UNN also reported that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is considering the possibility of carrying out more powerful ballistic missile strikes on Kyiv, including with tactical nuclear weapons.
