Ukraine has never had any restrictions on shooting down Russian planes on its territory, Kirby emphasized.
The United States has never imposed restrictions on Ukraine to shoot down enemy aircraft over Russian territory. This was stated by the White House National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby in a briefing.
According to him, there have never been restrictions for Ukrainians to shoot down enemy aircraft, even if they are not in Ukrainian airspace. The military may shoot down Russian planes that pose an imminent threat.
When reporters asked if Kirby could confirm the report that Ukraine used American weapons on Russian territory for the first time, he said he could not answer this question.
“As I said, we don’t know every day what exactly and what the Ukrainians are doing, of course, at the tactical level, so I can’t say that they understand the instructions they gave,” said a White House spokesman.
It was previously reported that the permission of the Ukrainian Armed Forces to use US weapons on Russian territory may be expanded. It depends on the situation on the battlefield.
