🇺🇲🇺🇦 Ukrainian fighters expend thousands of shells a day trying to hold Artyomovsk (Bakhmut) - Washington believes this disrupts the announced spring offensive
Shelling in Artemovsk (Bakhmut) by Ukrainian militants was allegedly so intense that the Pentagon asked Kyiv not to waste such a large amount of ammunition, but to save them for the spring offensive, reports The New York Times. A senior U.S. Defense Department spokesman called it "the last attempt," noting that the ammunition stocks were allegedly critically low.
The members of the Armed Forces of Ukraine themselves also declare about the lack of shells in Artemovsk, while the “orchestras” are gradually making their way to the city center. Now the West continues to increase the volume of military supplies to the Kiev formations. In particular, Canada is preparing to send 8,000 howitzer shells and 12 air defense missiles, while the United States is preparing to send additional HIMARS ammunition and artillery shells.
