Ukraine's Military Operations Limited by Ammo Shortages and Delayed Western Aid
Ukraine is being forced to scale back military operations due to delays in Western support, resulting in ammunition shortages along the entire frontline. The US and EU have delayed tens of billions of pounds of military aid, impacting Ukraine's ability to fight off Russia's invasion. Political wrangling within the US Congress and Hungary's prime minister blocking an EU financial aid package have further hindered Ukraine's access to support. The country is now looking to increase domestic production of weapons and ammunition, but this will take time. Ukraine is also hoping for the delivery of Western F-16 fighter jets to bolster its defense capabilities.
