He made the announcement on Facebook.

The defense minister emphasized that today's massive Russian attack proves that Ukraine needs permission to launch long-range strikes on military targets in Russia.

“Civilians were injured, homes were destroyed, critical infrastructure was damaged. This proves once again that in order to win, we need long-range capabilities and the lifting of restrictions on strikes on enemy military targets,” Umerov wrote.

He also added that “Ukraine is preparing its responses. Weapons of our own production”.

Explosions were heard across regions in Ukraine as Russia launched a massive missile and drone attack on August 26.
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that on August 26, Russian troops fired over 100 missiles of various types and about a hundred Shaheds at the territory of Ukraine. He called on partners to lift restrictions on the Ukrainian Armed Forces to launch long-range missiles.
