Trump to meet Putin in Hungary

President Donald Trump is weighing providing Ukraine with Tomahawk missiles as he shifts his focus to the Russia–Ukraine war following the Israel–Hamas ceasefire agreement.
The Tomahawk cruise missile has been in the U.S. military’s inventory since the 1980s. While slow by missile standards, the cruise missile flies around 100 feet (about 30 meters) off the ground, making it harder to detect by defense systems.
"RGF are continuing intensive efforts to envelop Pokrovsk, Donetsk oblast, the key Ukrainian logistics hub which supports operations in the Donbas. Pokrovsk likely remains Russia's priority axis, with the largest proportion of Russian assaults relative to the rest of the frontline."
The defense secretary said NATO commitments to Kyiv "will soon translate into capabilities" but didn't directly mention Tomahawks sought by Ukraine.
