Washington has partially lifted its ban on Ukraine firing US weapons across the border into Russia, but America is still not supplying Kyiv with its longest-range missiles.
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) said this is giving Moscow a sanctuary, allowing its air force to launch deadly glide bombs without even leaving Russian airspace.
As a low-cost, relatively low-tech stand-off weapons, the glide bombs have done much to transform Russian fortunes on Ukraine’s northern front.

Cheers.
I wonder what targets can reach deep inside Europe from North Africa some "Libyan rebels"…
The Ukrainians would not be operating these systems. Nato troops would be. Welcome to WW3, muppets.
These attacks are symbolic and not strategic, everytime they make these attacks they get pummeled and loose critical infrastructure.
Ukarin is running out of men to fight Thats a major problem
It seems like it's not Ukraine who is fighting there but America. This weapons are all US made. learning how to operate it take months of practice and I still can't believe why it rolls in the front line as soon as it arrives in Ukraine.
Since 2014 Ukraine has been heavily influenced by the US, and since that time only bad things have happened to it. We should not be escalating the situation.
Just stay out of it.
America has not done anything better in the world with their wars. Contrary, they have made the world less stable.
Just FO and maybe fix your own boarder.
The west is making these self impossed red lines to not anger Putin too much but at the expense of Ukrainine lives. Thousands of Ukrainians are dead because of delayed and self imposed restrictions. This is sacrificing Ukranian lives and lands for the safety of the West. As someone from the "West" I find this unacceptable.
That's a big 'if'. The trouble is America keeps messing up. They cross one red line, and then panic and draw another one whilst apologising to Putin and try to convince him they won't cross the new red line. In other words, they allow Ukraine to use its weapons inside Russia, but with lots of caveats attached. Putin sees how hesitant the US is and so keeps rattling his nukes louder and louder. Why give Putin this opportunity? Why allow him to escalate his rhetoric in the first place? America has crapped this up since day one.
Mao to Heath: "Surely it makes sense to let the Russians pour millions of roubles worth of equipment into Vietnam when it isn't going to do them any good…" "The Course of My Life" page 637. Does Mao's disciple think like this…"Let Putin pour billions into Ukraine… it'll benefit China not Russia…" Or "Heads China wins. Tails China wins" The change in circumstances is role reversal. China 10 times more powerful than Russia?
if MIGs didn't work for Ukraine why F16 should do better?
Ukrain needs to stop this bombshell before Russia launch operations discrimination.
A 😢😮😢😮😢😮 bad ＆ nasty 😮😢😮😢😮😢 retired director from General Dynamics, previously worked in San Diego, probably more than 85 yrs old now, is abusing US Gov's monitoring satellite to harass normal US civilians, inside USA & all over the world for his own entertainment & amusement.
These remote sensors of the monitoring satellites are capable of interpreting the words you're thinking in your mind, may be, by air vibration or by scanning the brainwaves from your brain.
The Israeli IDF are using similar satellite technologies to spy on the Hamas leadership hiding deep inside the Gaza Tunnels. IDF once released footage of these videos in much degraded resolution.
This could also have been the way how our intelligence services obtained classified information on Xi Jinping's missile deployment within China.
This retired General Dynamics director could have been the mastermind behind the plane crash killing the Secretary of Commerce Ronald Brown of the Clinton Administration, in the plane crash in 1996 in Croatia.
The United States as we learned and studied in American high school does not exist anymore; it has been destroyed.
United States have been dead. American citizens don't have human rights.
This retired Director of General Dynamics is indeed a national disgrace of the United States.
If this America disgrace wants to harrass any American civilian, he just puts the name of this American into our Gov. blacklist for monitoring, and he can harass this American civilian.
United States must stop this disgrace retired director from General Dynamics.
Our Congress should carry out an investigation into our Gov satellite misuse. I am willing to testify in Congress.
I can give White House my name and let them check if I have been wrongly put onto the blacklist of terrorists for monitoring, just for some retired director from General Dynamics for his personal amusement and entertainment.
I am requesting help here from White House. That's why I'm typing all these.
White House can simply remove my name from the list of terrorists being monitored by the American intelligence services.
I am the victim of abuse of American monitoring satellites.
It's easy to check. White House may check if my name is on the terrorist monitoring list. I am willing to contact White House.
Such hypocrisy.
The Taliban is using American weapons and
you don't seen to call them being used
"with American permission". Drama and lies.
Propaganda.
BACK TO THE UNIPOLAR
That’s when they felt comfortable. They were in control and no one could doubt it. They had the history, the culture, the wealth… and they had the power. The unipolar power.
Imagine their dismay, after all those centuries of history, culture, wealth and near unlimited power… it all began to slip away. Bit by bit, here and there… like a photograph receding back in time, reversing its development. In shock they watched as the picture of their status, their preeminence, glory even, and above all, supreme dominance, began to fade. They must have felt they might soon disappear themselves…
The elites who have ruled our world from generation to generation didn’t take at all kindly to the loss of the great many perks they had enjoyed for so long. Great powers draw more power to them just as money tends to make money. You can squeeze the other guy out if he becomes any kind of danger to those perks of yours.
Your weapons are many, from your police, your military and of course, your media. Combine those with the political power you wield through the networks across all others you have built, nurtured and strengthened down the years, add the entitlement you feel you have to threaten, bribe and otherwise manipulate. Aren’t you the rightful rulers of the world? You are the ‘good guys’, aren’t you? Any who might reduce your status must be the ‘bad guys’, right?
What a come down it must have been then, just as you had brought down the rival power of the Soviet Union and were glorying in being not just unipolar power in the West, but unipolar power now of the entire globe… that it all began to go horribly wrong. This couldn’t be, right? To have this supremely wondrous moment you had worked so hard toward for fifty plus years suddenly wrenched away from you only a few years after this momentous achievement. This was surely devastating.
Those you consider your remarkably lowlife inferiors, were rising fast and the glorious moment was spoiled for you. All those dreams of total, global, hegemony with all that tremendous power, influence and dignity, not to mention the still heightened status or all those additional perks that beckoned just a hand’s reach away. All slip sliding away…
It simply couldn’t be. It was unthinkable. This could not be allowed to stand.
And then September 11th 2001 dawned. The ‘Pearl Harbour Moment’ had arrived to save the day. Now you had an eminently good reason to hit back hard, to weaken the foes that sought to bring you down, and while you were at it, eliminate the big guys that had nothing to do with 9/11 at the same time. Glory beckoned once more. Where there was previously the slough of despond now there was new hope.
Like a shining white crusader knight you would slay every single dragon and save every princess… and assume your rightful place as emperors of the world.
It all seemed so doable. Besides, there really wasn't any alternative. It HAD to be done. And you commanded the most powerful military the world had ever seen. What COULDN’T you do? You were up for this and you had everyone behind you cheering you on. What could be better? Simply make a list of all those men, women, groups and nations who were trying to escape your power and smite every last one of them.
Afghanistan
Iraq
Libya
Syria
Iran
Sudan
Yemen
Nicaragua
Venezuela
Cuba
Russia
China
And any in-between.
Who was going to stop you? In the western elite minds of the time the answer was no one.
It was decided there and then and the impulse is with us still. There is no other game in town. There is plan B. There is no reverse gear, no questioning of the goal, no doubt and no forgiveness for anyone seen to doubt. The faint of heart and all the Doubting Thomases were to be ousted from every corridor of power anywhere.
Only warriors were required now, burners of bridges, never builders. And of course zealots to the cause. All else was anathema and all else would be cauterized, surgically removed leaving only the hardened core dedicated forever to the cause.
We see the dedication every day that dawns. And we see the massive intolerance for those who deign to think, believe or state anything not corresponding to the “right” narratives, “right” agendas and the supreme mission The supreme mission to eliminate all opposition, to destroy all platforms that support that opposition and create the conditions where no possible opposition could ever again arise. Then they would have achieved their goal. They would feel safe and secure once more.
All would be well once more in their lofty world where their “ benign” control could be exerted without any sign of that irritating and dangerous thing, opposition. They would be back where they always “should” have been, in control, guiding the world on its path, ready always to smite any enemy that was foolish enough to raise its head. Back in power. Back to how things "should" be.
BACK TO THE UNIPOLAR
You can find me as AEARNUR on Substack.
So it is fine for Russia to supply nuke to terrorists so they can strike America.
Richtig so, hier wird eine Pufferzone aufgebaut !
You can guarantee that if this happens there will be retaliation. Watch and see .
Russia are using other countries weapons to hit Ukraine so Ukraine should be able to use other countries too. If you go by Putin's words of escalation then Ukraine can go to war with the countries supplying Russia 🤷🏼♂️
