KYIV, Sept 1 (Reuters) - At least 47 people, including five children, were injured on Sunday after Russian missiles struck a shopping mall and events complex in Ukraine’s northeastern city of Kharkiv, officials said.
Earlier in the day, Russia said Kyiv had launched one of the biggest drone attacks against it since the full-scale war began, targeting power plants and an oil refinery, while Moscow’s forces made further gains towards a key town in eastern Ukraine.
The Kharkiv attack prompted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to renew calls on allies to allow Kyiv to fire Western-supplied missiles deeper into enemy territory and reduce the military threat posed by Russia.
Yeah, I guess I just assumed he didn’t want to piss anyone off so they would still send him aid
Also… those things are hella expensive. Drones are a way cheaper option and Ukraine is basically on a shoestring budget, compared to Russia. I don’t even know if Ukraine has the capability of making their own missiles at this point, but they can still manufacture drones. Especially the ones for kamikaze missions, since they just have to be good enough to get there.
So you think they need additional help with targeting or getting through defenses? I’m confused as to how this relates to needing permission
