Ok then, resolved. Because just this morning I heard in the news, the reporter used "heading to" , which I thought was wrong, that's why I wanted to confirm it.And so the correct usage is heading for. Thanks!

Ciao!

It is not wrong to use ' to '. It depends on the context.

In this sentence, the use of ' to ' give a sense of going from one place to the other. It is a matter of which one is appropriate, it is not wrong to use ' for ' I believe.
