Many reports provided by Russian state media or Kremlin officials are likely untrue. Such reports may be part of the Russian Federation's information warfare.
At the end of May, President Joe Biden instructed his team to provide Ukraine with the ability to use weapons supplied by the United States for counterfire purposes in Kharkiv so Ukraine could respond to Russian forces attacking or preparing to attack.
The permission for attacks only covered a small area near the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv, where heavy fighting occurred. However, the President of Ukraine wants the missiles to also reach deep into Russia to defeat the enemy.
Anton Gerashchenko commented that Skabeyeva "looks very unhappy." He added that this should indeed be the case - Ukraine should be able to strike deep into Russia. "This will impact the war significantly," he stated.
