The US is considering Ukraine's request for long-range Tomahawk missiles, with President Trump making the final decision. Ukraine seeks these missiles to strike major Russian cities, aiming to weaken Russia's military industry and end the war. While Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov downplayed the potential impact, US officials have indicated authorization for deep strikes into Russia. This shift in US tone follows President Trump's recent statement that Ukraine can reclaim all its territory. Meanwhile, Ukraine also urgently seeks Patriot air defense systems to counter escalating Russian drone and missile attacks.
