Russian propagandists are alarmed: Ukraine will strike Russia with F-16s over next three weeks

Kremlin propaganda is increasingly declaring the threat from the Ukrainian Armed Forces' combat aviation, which was recently replenished with American F-16 fighters. Russian propagandist Olga Skabeeva told Russians live on air that, according to publications in Western media, the Pentagon has allowed Ukraine to carry out military strikes using fighters on Russian territory.
Skabeeva quoted a statement by White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby, who said that at the first stage the fighters would reinforce the work of the Ukrainian air defense. However, over the next three weeks the aircraft would be prepared for military sorties and strikes against the Russian Federation . The propagandist also reported that by the end of the year Ukraine will receive several dozen more fighters, the total number of which at the disposal of NATO countries reaches several thousand, which means that "the taboo on endless war has been lifted."
Recall, after more than a year of waiting, F-16s finally fly in the Ukrainian skies. As expected, the F-16s will serve, first of all, to boost Ukraine's sky shield.
The Air Force will likely treasure its first handful – likely no more than 10 – of valuable jets and keep them away from dangerous Russian air defenses.
Their value may grow as the rest of the roughly 80 pledged jets roll in in the coming years, presenting a potential for a broader scope of tasks. The weaponry visible on the two presented F-16s suggests they are likely to be used primarily for air defense purposes. According to The Telegraph, they have already carried out this task in Ukrainian skies.
Even if the other F-16s Ukraine receives are better suited for ground targets, Kyiv will likely be limited by the restrictions on strikes deep within Russian territory.
Washington already said it made no change to its policy after the arrival of F-16s, meaning U.S.-made arms can be used only on Ukrainian territory or just across the Russian border.
While Denmark and the Netherlands indicated that Ukraine would be able to use their F-16s to strike targets inside Russian airspace "as self-defense," many such announcements made by the Western allies in the past have proven hollow. Belgium, in turn, said their F-16s are for use within Ukrainian airspace only.
