The #US will provide #Ukraine with antipersonnel land mines to blunt the advance of #Russian troops, an official familiar with the decision said, the latest effort by the #Biden administration to bolster support for #Kyiv ahead of President-elect Donald #Trump inauguration. #politics

The mines the US will send to Ukraine are “non-persistent,” becoming inert after a pre-set period that can last from a few hours to two weeks, according to the person, who was granted anonymity to discuss the policy.

The decision, reported earlier by the Washington Post, came about after President Joe Biden dropped his long-standing opposition to long-range strikes on #Russia with the American-made #Army Tactical Missile Systems, known as ATACMS. Washington’s shift on missile strikes came about after North #Korean troops arrived to support Russian forces on the battlefield.
