The United States last week secretly shipped a new long-range missile system to Ukraine, and Ukrainian forces immediately used the weapons to attack a Russian military airfield in Crimea last Wednesday and Russian troops in the country’s southeast overnight on Tuesday, according to a senior U.S. official.
The United States previously supplied Ukraine with a version of the Army Tactical Missile Systems — known as ATACMS — armed with wide-spreading cluster munitions that can travel 100 miles.
But Ukraine has long coveted the system’s longer-range version, with a range of about 190 miles. That can reach deeper into occupied Ukraine, including Crimea, a hub of Russian air and ground forces, and supply nodes for Moscow’s forces in the country’s southeast.
Overnight Tuesday, Ukraine used the longer-range missiles to strike Russian troops in the port city of Berdiansk on the Sea of Azov, the senior U.S. official said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss operational matters.
I notice the lack of ‘he’s not doing enough’ and ‘he’ll never do enough’ crowd here.
Right here. I’m glad he’s doing this… finally.
Now if only he would stop doing it to Israel.
So, neutral attitude about the whole thing.
It’s like those people who say to look at the economy, like even if it was doing great because of him that doesn’t change that he is sending more and more weapons to Israel
Hello. I’m that crowd.
Are you saying this is enough? Cuz from what I can tell… not even close. Even with the aid package that he almost certainly takes credit for.
Oh. Wait this is part of that, huh.
No, I’m saying it’s something. Every time I engage with one of you you’re decrying everything he’s working on as nothing and attributing that ‘nothing’ to his entire presidency.
Then You’re clearly not paying attention.
The aid package that dropped had a shit load of hands on it. Biden did some lifting, but it was mostly house leadership that did the heavy lifting.
You’re clearly unwilling to give credit everywhere it’s due as if Biden touching something makes it solely his.
