Kiev can use American weapons against enemy targets located on Russian territory. The official confirmation arrived in the last few hours from the White House. The missile systems and artillery shells supplied by Washington can hit enemy aircraft or vehicles just across the border. The goal is to prevent Moscow from attacking Ukraine without putting its boots on the ground of conflict.

"This permission to use American weapons allows the Ukrainians to return fire against Russian positions directly across the border in the Kharkiv region, as well as in the Sumy region", explained a representative of the Biden administration during a top meeting, according to "Agi" Italian agency.

Furthermore, White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan reported that US-supplied air defense systems could be used against Russian aircraft in Moscow's airspace. Lockheed Martin F-16 "Fighting Falcon" fighter aircraft will soon be deployed on Ukrainian territory.
