US Approves Use of Antipersonnel Land Mines by Ukraine Against Russian Forces

 

 In a significant policy shift, the Biden administration has authorized Ukraine to deploy American-supplied antipersonnel land mines in its ongoing conflict with Russian forces. This decision was announced by U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin during a visit to Laos.

The change comes in response to evolving tactics on the battlefield, with Russian ground troops increasingly leading movements. Secretary Austin emphasized that the land mines provided to Ukraine will be non-persistent, meaning they can be controlled to self-deactivate, reducing long-term risks.

The decision has sparked discussions about the implications for both the battlefield and international relations, as the war in Ukraine continues to escalate.
