Ukraine war live: Kremlin says any decision to use long-range US missiles against Russia would lead to a ‘rise in tension’

Dmitry Peskov warns against increased US involvement in war as EU foreign ministers signal support for Biden lifting ban on using US missiles inside Russia

The foreign minister of the Netherlands, Caspar Veldkamp, has described the decision by the Joe Biden administration that US supplied weapons can be used to strike inside Russia as an “adequate response” to the deployment of North Korean troops by Russia.

The US president will allow Ukraine to use US-made Atacms rockets, which have a range of 190 miles (300km) inside Russia’s Kursk region, where Ukrainian troops have staged an incursion.
