Kyiv used these long-range missiles to batter Russian helicopters in multiple strikes last year. T South Korean Defense Ministry via Getty ImagesThroughout the war, Ukraine has routinely pressed Washington to provide ATACMS so it could hit high-value Russian targets deep behind enemy lines. Kyiv used the M39 ATACMS variant in those attacks. Regardless of the variant, the arrival of additional ATACMS will likely compel Moscow to change its strategy and tactics. While the statement did not specifically mention ATACMS, it said the package contains "additional ammunition" for the HIMARS, which could include ATACMS.

She also posts TikTok videos about the process. The acrimony could potentially lead to a nationwide prohibition of TikTok, following a Montana statewide ban signed into law last month.

The state's governor, Greg Gianforte, signed a bill last month that will prohibit Google and Apple's app stores from offering the TikTok app, starting in January 2024. The app disputed Montana's claim that TikTok is used for surveillance, saying the state has "nothing to support these allegations."

During that academic year, the most recent for which data is available, the number of American citizens studying in China was down 97% from roughly 12,000 in 2018-19, and even further below the peak of nearly 15,000 a decade ago, according to data from the U.S. State Department and the Institute of International Education, a New York-based nonprofit.
