The Biden administration has granted Ukraine permission to strike certain areas inside Russia with U.S.-provided weapons, according to a report by Ukrayinska Pravda, citing foreign media sources.
The report, as quoted by Xinhua news agency on Thursday, states that Washington has allowed Kiev to use these weapons for counter-fire purposes exclusively against targets near Russia’s border with Ukraine’s eastern Kharkiv region.
This decision comes in response to deteriorating conditions for Ukraine on the battlefield, with Russia making advances and strengthening its position in the Kharkiv region. However, the U.S. policy on long-range strikes remains unchanged, and Ukraine has not been authorized to use American weapons for attacks deep within Russian territory.
