U.S. Authorizes Ukrainian Cross-Border Weapons Use Against Russia

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced that the United States has approved the use of U.S. weapons by Ukraine for cross-border attacks inside Russia. The authorization comes after requests from Kyiv amidst ongoing Russian assaults on Kharkiv. President Joe Biden has given his approval for this strategic move.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Friday said that the United States approved the use of U.S. weapons by Ukraine across the border inside Russia after Kyiv asked for authorization over the past few weeks amid Russia's attacks on Kharkiv.

Blinken, speaking to reporters in the Czech Republic following a meeting of NATO foreign ministers, said U.S. President Joe Biden had approved the move.
