Recent reports indicate that Ukraine has utilized US-provided missiles to target a Russian weapons arsenal, marking the first instance of such a cross-border strike. According to sources, President Joe Biden sanctioned the use of powerful long-range American ATACMS missile systems, granting Kyiv the authority to strike inside Russia.
The decision to deploy the Army Tactical Missile Systems (ATACMS) within Russian territory had been deliberated for several months among American officials. While some expressed concerns about potentially escalating the conflict, others were apprehensive about depleting the stockpiles of these advanced weapons.
