The USA is giving Ukraine the right to use American long-distance drones against targets within Russia, according to unnamed officials to several media outlets.

The information has not been confirmed by the White House.

Such things are not announced. The drones will speak for themselves. They will definitely do so, said Zelenskyj about the media reports, in his evening speech on Sunday.

The first such attacks may come in the next few days, reports Reuters, citing sources.

Zelenskyj also, although not jokingly, criticized German Chancellor Olaf Scholz for Friday's phone call with the Russian President. Russia attacked Ukraine with over 200 drones and rockets on Sunday, emphasized Zelenskyj.

This is the answer to all those who wanted to achieve something with Putin through discussions, phone calls, hugs, and concessions. Today, this "dove of peace" sent us another wave of "Kinzhal" and "Kalibr" drones. This is his diplomacy.

Time should not be wasted on talking to someone in Moscow, but on really forcing Russia to end the war.
