In a significant development, Ukraine has received authorization to employ U.S. weapons for striking targets within Russian territory. However, this permission comes with specific limitations, according to sources within U.S. officials speaking to CNN.
The granted permit is described as a "partial lift of the ban," focusing solely on the city of Kharkiv. Under these terms, Ukraine is permitted to utilize Patriot missile systems to target Russian aircraft in the air. However, the use of ATACMS (Army Tactical Missile System) and strikes on parked aircraft are explicitly prohibited.
This decision underscores the nuanced approach taken by the United States in its support for Ukraine, balancing the provision of military assistance with strategic considerations. The focus on Kharkiv, a city of strategic importance near the Ukrainian-Russian border, highlights the targeted nature of this authorization.
