Musk Calls Biden's Alleged Request for New Aid Package for Ukraine 'Not Ok'

US media reported on Tuesday, citing a document, that Biden had secretly asked Congress for another $24 billion to replenish the Pentagon's reserves for Ukraine. The request could reportedly be considered in December.

Last week, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in a televised speech that Ukraine had fired US-supplied ATACMS missiles and the UK's Storm Shadows at facilities in the Kursk and Bryansk regions. In response, Russia launched a strike against a defense industry facility, the Yuzhmash plant, in Dnepropetrovsk on November 21, using its newest medium-range missile, the Oreshnik.

On Monday, White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby confirmed that Ukraine had been allowed to use US-made ATACMS ballistic missiles to fire at targets in the western Russian region of Kursk.
