Biden Flips Policy, Will Send Mines to Ukraine

With two months left to go in his presidency, President Biden has made another policy change to help Ukraine as Russian troops advance. Defense secretary Lloyd Austin said Wednesday that the administration has agreed to supply Ukraine with anti-personnel land mines, the reports. Austin said the policy change is a response to Russia's changing tactics.

He said Russian ground troops, not armored personnel carriers, are leading the advance and there is "a need for things that can help slow down that effort on the part of the Russians," the reports. Austin said the mines would not be used in heavily populated areas..
