Russia has vowed an appropriate response if Ukraine uses US long-range missiles to strike its territory.
The Kremlin warns Kyiv's use of such missiles would mark an escalation in the conflict, hours after US officials said Joe Biden has given the green light.
Mr. Biden told leaders at the G20 summit in Brazil the US strongly supports Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.
The Ukrainian President has said the missiles will speak for themselves.
The US will reportedly allow Ukraine to use the missiles to hold onto the small chunk of Russian territory it occupies in Kursk, reportedly making the decision after the Kremlin allowed North Korean troops to fight there.
Meanwhile at least 10 people have been killed after a missile was shot down and fell on residential buildings in Odesa, following a weekend of widespread Russian attacks.
