Special forces landed on the western shore of Crimea, near the settlements of Olenivka and Mayak, in a joint operation with the country’s Navy, according to Ukrainian Defense Intelligence.

    The other poster summarized exactly what I meant. We are generally not supplying them with weapons systems that can strike deep into Russian territory. I believe Moscow is well with range of a Tomahawk, and missile attacks against a civilian-populated city is a genie that’s already out of the bottle.

    I believe the agreement is that the Ukrainians will not use ally-sourced weapon systems inside Russia, and they obviously have to agree. This relegates them to fighting a war of attrition against an enemy that can attack their infrastructure and civilian population at will.
