US Assistance for Ukraine's Energy Infrastructure Amid Russian Attacks
Russia's strikes on Ukraine's energy infrastructure led Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to seek United States assistance for protecting the country's electricity and gas networks.
Tomahawk cruise missiles can target 1,945 known Russian military objects, expanding Ukraine's ability to strike deeper into Russian territory.
Moscow warned that the United States supply of Tomahawk missiles would be a serious escalation.
Dmitry Peskov, Kremlin spokesman, said tensions are escalating from all sides.
A Ukrainian delegation led by Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko is in the United States for preliminary talks ahead of the October 17 meeting.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will meet defense and energy companies and members of the United States Congress.
