US President Joe Biden reportedly authorized Ukraine to strike deep into Russia with American missiles ATACMS, especially in Russia's Kursk region.

▪️ Reuters reports that deep strikes into Russian territory could take place in the coming days.
▪️ The son of Donald Trump called those who gave the authorization "fools."
▪️ Bloomberg writes that this authorization to use long-range weapons against Russia is unlikely to respond to all of Kiev's demands.
▪️ The Pentagon has not commented yet on the information.
▪️ Such strikes would lead to a serious escalation, said Leonid Slutsky, chairman of the State Duma's International Affairs Committee.
▪️ Elon Musk stated that "liberals love war."
▪️ Donald Trump may reconsider this decision, according to the representative of his team.
▪️ Joe Biden is trying to start World War III, according to US Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene.
▪️ The outgoing US president himself has not responded to questions.
