Some context. Four days ago it was confirmed that Iran provided Russia with ballistic missiles. Meanwhile McCaul reported that Blinken told him three days ago that Ukraine will receive permission to use ATACMS missiles on Russian bases. I think it is very likely this is the reason permission is finally being granted.

And in other news, Biden has sent Congress the long-awaited Ukraine strategy report, as mandated by the April Supplemental.

I don't speak Pharsi but if I did I might send the Iranian leader a message of thanks. A few Iranian ballistic missiles cannot damage Ukraine as much as the US has done by preventing weapons being used to strike inside Russia at the origin of attacks against Ukraine.

That is a good move in the right direction. The first targets should be missile, UAV, gliding bomb and artillery shell production facilities and any facility providing required materials to those facilities. Russian firepower superiority has to be reduced at all costs.
