The latest on Russia’s war in Ukraine

What we know:

President Vladimir Putin has escalated his threats to countries that allow Ukraine to use their weapons to target Russian territory. He said Moscow was entitled to strike military targets belonging to those countries. Ukraine fired at Russia this week with missiles made in the US, UK and France.

• Putin’s warning came after Russia struck the Ukrainian city of Dnipro with a new medium-range ballistic missile that carried multiple warheads. Experts said it was likely the first time such a weapon was used in combat. Russia will keep testing the new missile, Putin said Friday.
• Moscow is believed to have given North Korea air-defense equipment and anti-air missiles in return for Pyongyang sending troops to fight alongside Russian soldiers, according to South Korea’s national security adviser. Ukrainian officials have reportedly seen North Korean military members in the southern city of Mariupol and the eastern region of Kharkiv.
