Ukraine Weapons Use: Zelenskyy Calls for Lifting Curbs on Military Targets in Russia

Ukraine Weapons Use and Western Support

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has renewed pleas for Kyiv’s western allies to lift restrictions on his forces’ use of weapons against military targets in Russia. As Moscow unleashed devastating air strikes on Ukraine, Zelenskyy urged that to gain an upper hand and dictate the terms of a just end to the ongoing conflict, Ukraine needs to strike deep behind enemy lines.

The Urgency of Long-Range Capabilities

Zelenskyy emphasized reliance on western allies for arms and ammunition, particularly those striking long-range targets. Despite this, partners have shown hesitation. Recent discussions involve specific targets in Russia that Ukraine wishes to strike with US Atacms and other missiles.

Consequences of Limited Weapon Use

• Ukrainian forces risk losing ground if restrictions remain.
• Critical infrastructure continues to be targeted by Russian airstrikes.
• The ongoing struggle highlights the urgent need for more effective military support from allies to combat these threats.

As air strikes intensify and infrastructure is compromised, Zelenskyy’s call is stronger than ever — the need to lift restrictions on weapon use to protect Ukraine and restore peace. The current military dynamics signify the high stakes at play in this ongoing conflict.
