WASHINGTON, Nov 17 (MENA) – US President Joe Biden has lifted the ban on Ukraine using US weapons to launch attacks inside Russia, Al Hurra news channel reported.

European media quoted a US official as saying the United States has given the green light to use long-range missiles.

The Biden administration had imposed restrictions preventing Ukraine from using weapons supplied by the United States to strike deep inside Russian territory, and the decision to lift this ban represents a major change in US policy in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia.

The US move comes months after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky requested that the Ukrainian army be allowed to use US weapons to strike Russian military targets far from the borders. (MENA)
