As Ukraine girds for the third year of full-scale war against Russia’s invasion, its leaders find themselves battling on a new front: keeping allies’ attention. Since Hamas militants attacked Israel on Oct. 7, prompting an overwhelming response in the Gaza Strip and beyond, Western attention has shifted to the Middle East. Diplomats and military officials are now even more focused there as the U.S. and U.K. retaliate against attacks on shipping and naval escorts by Houthi rebels allied to Iran.

The Biden administration on Thursday condemned the detention of an American Wall Street Journal reporter in Russia for what Moscow described as espionage, the first such case of an American journalist detained for allegations of spying since the Cold War. President Biden was briefed on the detention of reporter Evan Gershkovich, National Security Council Strategic Coordinator John Kirby told reporters. He reiterated earlier U.S. State Department warnings that Americans are urged to avoid traveling to Russia or to leave immediately.
The U.S., France and Germany have said they will send dozens of armored infantry vehicles to Ukraine, a significant deployment of Western support at a critical juncture in its war against invading Russian forces. President Biden said Thursday that the U.S. would provide Bradley Fighting Vehicles, a tracked vehicle that resembles a tank but with a smaller gun, fulfilling months of requests from Kyiv. The Bradleys are part of a new military-aid package—which officials said they expected to outline formally Friday—that would include other munitions, vehicles and weaponry.
NATO and Russia are moving ahead with major nuclear exercises amid spiraling tensions over the war in Ukraine and hints from Russian President Vladimir Putin that the territory Moscow claims to have annexed could be protected by nuclear arms.
