    Afaik they only allowed Ukraine to do that when Russia started “I can hit you but you can’t hit back because I’m in Russia” tactics. Afaik Ukraine can only strike Russia under certain strict conditions.

      With western provided weapons. They have been performing deep strike with home grown drone/cruise missile systems. They are getting better fast.

        Yeah, in a year they will have their own home grown capability. Untill then the current generation of drones is performing adequate. Once they integrate hard and software that allow the drone to finish the mission on its own in the terminal phase, it will be even more painful.

        Cracking towers are good stand out targets.
