Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has responded to reports that the U.S. has authorized Ukraine to conduct long-range strikes within Russia. In his evening address, Zelensky emphasized that such actions are not announced publicly and that 'missiles will speak for themselves.' This response comes amid increasing media speculation about Ukraine's military capabilities following President Biden's decision to lift the ban on Ukraine using U.S. missiles for deeper strikes into Russian territory.
