One of the main points of the war in Ukraine is the military aid provided by the USA, Great Britain and other countries.
At first, deliveries focused on Javelin missiles and smaller munitions – now Ukraine is receiving air defense systems.
And, of course, the HIMARS missile systems that Ukrainian forces are using to devastating effect as they pound Russian lines.
Ukraine’s Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov tells how the request for Stinger missiles was rejected ten months ago. Stingers are portable surface-to-air missiles.
In the tweet, Reznikov shared a video of what he says shows a Russian fighter jet being shot down by a Stinger missile in the Kharkiv region.
Otherwise, Russian missiles today attacked a motorcade with cars in the east of Ukraine, causing casualties and material damage.
