The war between Russia and Ukraine is going to be more dangerous now. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has got the go-ahead to attack Crimea. The Biden administration has accepted Ukraine’s demand for military assistance to attack Crimea. America has given consent to Ukraine to use HIMARS and MLRS. Till now Ukraine was attacking Crimea with drones or was targeting Crimea bridge or Russian military bases through Sabotage. But now he will attack with HIMARS and MLRS.

War continues for 11 months
Let us inform that America has also included Himars in the military aid package given to Ukraine. The war between the two countries is going on for the last 11 months. If any country has helped Ukraine the most in this war, it is America. From the beginning of the war, America had started providing military and economic assistance to Ukraine.
Till now America has provided hundreds of dollars in aid to Ukraine. The war between the two countries started on 24 February 2022, which is still going on. Neither Putin is ready to back down nor Zelensky is ready to accept defeat in this war. In such a situation, it is difficult to say how long this war will last.
