Ukraine has used most of received American ATACMS missiles - CNN

The Armed Forces of Ukraine have used almost all ATACMS missiles transferred by the U.S.

This is reported by CNN.

In particular, the publication claims that according to the information of an anonymous American official, the U.S. has transferred several hundred ATACMS missile systems to Ukraine, and most of them have already been used. He also noted that the United States has a limited number of these complexes that it can provide to Ukraine without harming its own military readiness. Using ATACMS to strike deep into russia could deplete Ukrainian reserves that could be used in other parts of the campaign, such as Crimea.

According to a CNN source, the Ukrainians believe that there are weapons production facilities within ATACMS range that could become important military targets.

As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, on September 6, the head of the German Ministry of Defense, Boris Pistorius, stated that Germany has not changed its position regarding strikes deep into the territory of the aggressor country of the russian federation with weapons transferred to Ukraine.

On September 6, the Pentagon announced another reason for the ban on the use of American weapons by Ukraine for long-range strikes deep into the territory of the aggressor country of russia.

The White House has said that ATACMS will not be able to hit russian warplanes because they are based outside the range of these missiles.

According to the media, the United Kingdom has been waiting for more than a month for the decision of the United States to give permission to Ukraine to hit russian territory with Storm Shadow missiles.
