Yes, it does, just like Russia considers it a provocation too far to strike Ukraine's warmaking industry. Because that industry is located in NATO countries.
Also, Ukraine striking Russia would erode international support for it, and be a fantastic domestic propaganda opportunity for Russia.
There is no situation in which doing so would be to Ukraine's advantage. It can only win the war by destroying Russia's will to fight, it cannot win it by destroying it's means to fight.

- vasac 4y agoNATO can beat Russia, but because Russia can hurt NATO feelings with nuclear strike NATO choose to sit on their asses and leave Ukraine to fight.

Ukraine has been striking inside Russia proper since at least April. Ukraine has every right to strike back at Russia, at Russian military installations inside Russia.
