Patriot systems and Stinger missiles have been added to the list of weapons that the United States has stopped supplying to Ukraine, according to NBC News, citing sources in the Pentagon and Congress.
“The weapons that have been delayed [for delivery – ed.] include dozens of Patriot interceptors, <…> thousands of 155-millimeter high-explosive shell rounds, more than 100 Hellfire missiles, more than 250 GMLRS precision-guided missile systems, as well as dozens of Stinger surface-to-air missiles, AIM air-to-air missiles, and grenade launchers,” the publication says.
The suspension of supplies was confirmed by White House spokesperson Anna Kelly, who noted that this decision was necessary to prioritize U.S. interests.
Earlier, the Canadian government announced its decision to allocate over $25 million for the supply of military equipment and supplies to Ukraine.
