In September, Russian President Vladimir Putin warned that allowing Kiev to use its Western long-range missiles on Russia would mean NATO's direct participation in a war against the Russian Federation.
Last week, US President Joe Biden apparently authorized Ukraine to strike deep into Russia with American long-range ATACMS missiles, media reported on Sunday.
Ukraine's leader, Volodymyr Zelensky, claimed at a joint press conference with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen that Ukraine has received permission from the West to launch long-range strikes deep into the Russian Federation and said it intends to use ATACMS ballistic missiles.
Overnight on Tuesday, the Ukrainian forces launched six ATACMS missiles at a facility in Russia's Bryansk region. The Russian Armed Forces shot down five missiles and damaged one, the Russian Defense Ministry said.
Kiev's use of ATACMS in the Bryansk region is a signal that the US wants an escalation of the conflict in Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov commented on the escalation.
Take a look at Sputnik's infographic showing the maximum range of ATACMS and GMLRS missiles that could be, and already were, used by Ukraine in strikes on Russian soil.
