Got flagged.

Anyway this supposed permission seems hollow. No launches since yesterday. Zelenskyy 'Missiles Will Speak For Themselves' suggests not all is as it seems. Wouldnt be the first time US said something to the press while doing complete opposite behind closed doors - Poland Mig29 transfer was simultaneously being "negotiated"

and "untannable"

>Undersecretary of State Toria Nuland, testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, just said this statement was not pre-consulted with the U.S. Seems to have come as a bit of a surprise."

Meanwhile "8 people killed, 18 wounded, including a child as result of Russian ballistic missile strike in Odesa" today :|
