As Ukraine enters its 632nd day of war, the Ukrainian president is concerned about his army’s shell resources which seem to be diminishing visibly. Faced with a Russian army which is accumulating missiles for winter attacks, Ukraine is seeing its supplies of shells fall dangerously due to the war between Israel and Hamas.
“In the Middle East, what do you think they started buying first? 155 caliber (shells). Our supplies have diminished“, he said.
Israel, which benefits from military support from the United States, has been relentlessly bombing the Gaza Strip since Hamas fighters massacred hundreds of civilians during an unprecedented assault in early October.
In the whole world “now the warehouses are empty or there is a legal minimum that this or that particular state cannot give you“, he explained. “And it’s not enough“.
This problem is all the more serious because on the other side of the front line, Russian forces are stockpiling missiles in anticipation of massive attacks against Ukrainian infrastructure this winter, added the Ukrainian president.
“I think they’re stockpiling (missiles), but they don’t have many more missiles than before. Otherwise they would have already started bombing“, he indicated.
His country expects further attacks on its energy network, like last winter, when millions of Ukrainians were left without heat or electricity in freezing temperatures.
Faced with this danger, Western countries, which have supported the Ukrainian military effort since the first days of the Russian invasion, are multiplying reassuring declarations, even if voices are sometimes raised to demand a reduction in this support.
