Ukraine is targeting Russian depots using US-supplied Himars missiles and British long-range MLRS weapons. And Vladimir Putin’s forces are facing extreme ammunition shortages as their warehouses are being destroyed ‘one by one.’  

Ukraine received the first nine M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (Himars) in late June.

Ukraine has been requesting long-range artillery from its allies since they were invaded in February. And the hope is to even up the big imbalance of weapons with Russia. Especially in the Donbas region, Russian forces are taking over town after town. They are primarily bombing civilian targets.

On Friday, US President Joe Biden signed a $400 million weapons package for Ukraine. And that includes four more Himar systems.

Himars missiles strike Russian targets

Ukraine’s strikes against Russian command posts and ammo supplies have increased this month since Ukraine has nine Himars on the battlefield.
