Permission for long-range strikes against Russia: a military man explains how it will change the course of the war

Once Ukraine receives permission to strike Russia with long-range weapons, we will become more dangerous, more effective in countering the enemy, and I believe we will use this opportunity to its fullest extent.

Brigadier General Ihor Skybyuk, Commander of the Air Assault Forces and Hero of Ukraine, shared this in an interview with TSN.

"300 kilometers - this is sufficient to some extent. The operational structure of the enemy and our operational tasks will align with this range. It will significantly complicate their logistics, the deployment of bases, tactical strike aviation, and army aviation. It will also hinder the deployment of their reserves and command posts. All of these will fall within our reach. Their infrastructure and facilities cannot be located farther than necessary for their operations, meaning everything will fall within the 300-kilometer zone," the military man said.

According to him, this development could mean a significant reduction in the number of guided aerial bomb strikes on populated areas, including Sumy, Kharkiv and frontline zones.

"I hope so. We will influence this capability of theirs," Ihor Skybyuk concluded.
