In the ATACMS reach area, only 16% of the Russian Federation: the United States restricted the Armed Forces - ISW

According to analysts, the US policy still protects the vast majority of operational and deep rear of Russia. Changing the policy of US Presidential Administration Joe Baiden, which allowed Ukraine to use US weapons to strike some Russian military facilities in the Russian Federation, reduced the area where Russian troops and armored vehicles can only hide by 16%. About it writes "Institute of War Study" in the summary of June 9.

84% of the territories that could be within the radius of Ukrainian missiles atacms are still protected from them. The US restrictions are, in fact, created a large -scale shelter - the territory is theoretically within the reach of US weapons, but it is forbidden to strike US weapons on Ukrainian forces. In areas close to the border, Russian team points are located, there is logistics and a rear for Russian military operations in Ukraine.

"The US policy is still protecting the vast majority of the operational and deep rear of Russia," American analysts say. Permission to make restricted blows to the Russian Federation, which the United States gave Ukraine in May 2024, cut off only 16% of the possible territory for punches of American weapons: in this relatively small area of ​​the Armed Forces could strike the managed ammunition of Himars (GMLRS) in Belgorod, Kursk and Bryansk areas.

At the same time, according to analysts, it is far from clear whether the Ukrainian forces can fire these areas. High -ranking persons from the US leadership reported that Ukraine can strike the Russian Federation for counter -backer fire and in areas geographically tied to Kharkiv region. Recall that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation try to take in the tick times ravine, carry out infantry attacks and tank storms.
