Pentagon Considers Diverting Ukraine Military Aid To The Middle East by Pakute(op): 9:20pm On Mar 26
• Weapons that could be redirected from Ukraine include air defense interceptor missiles, ordered through a NATO program.

The Pentagon is considering whether to divert weapons intended for Ukraine to the Middle East as the war in Iran depletes some of the U.S. military’s most critical munitions, according to three people familiar with the matter.

The weapons that could be redirected include air defence interceptor missiles purchased through a Nato initiative launched last year, under which partner countries buy US arms for Kyiv, the report said.

The consideration comes as US operations in the region intensify.

Admiral Brad Cooper, the Central Command chief leading US forces in the Middle East, on Wednesday said the US had hit over 10,000 targets inside Iran and was on track to limit Iran's ability to project power outside its borders.

A Pentagon spokesperson told the newspaper that the Defence Department would "ensure that US forces and those of our allies and partners have what they need to fight and win".

The Pentagon, the US State Department and Nato did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment.

The self acclaimed greatest country in the world now rationing military hardwares.

Only Iran can do this!

Even after going to Asia to decommission defense systems, they still thought of rationing military aids!

When I say US $1 Trillion defense budget is a money laundering venture, some minions be thinking it’s a diss.

With the way it’s going, the US might still end up borrowing guns and boots.

okay we've heard you.

But is that why your greatest army about to enlist kids as low as the age of 12 into their army?

A 12 year old is capable of catching bodies if properly trained.

The IRGC is determined to make sure one US soldier does not go back home alive and why they need those numbers.

12 year old will have a better handling and combat flexibility than a 35 year old.

It is a move in right direction!

After diverting the missiles defense systems in South Korea to the middle east, Iran destroyed all of them. Now, it Ukraine's turn to get burnt at a time Putin is lurking around like a roaring lion.
Zelensky has been crying Trump had told him that he could not guarantee their security if he does not give up the control of Donbass to Russia. Ukraine has been neglected since the start of the middle east war and it's about getting even worse.
Unfortunately, those cheering on both Trump and Nentayahu are based off on social media deceits Trump is throwing at them through his handle. While the US are not only bleeding in both military personnels and weapons but also bleeding financially. These weapons are worth billions of dollars.
Isreal too are crying to UNICEF to rescue it from Iran. I was one of those who overrated the US but I see clearly now.

-Kiss the truth!

Re: Pentagon Considers Diverting Ukraine Military Aid To The Middle East by omoredia: 9:36am On Mar 27
Good. So let Europe send aid to Ukraine since dey dont want to help out in the middle east. Simple
Re: Pentagon Considers Diverting Ukraine Military Aid To The Middle East by pansophist(m): 9:36am On Mar 27
If the Pentagon is considering, better believe that it is a done deal.

Before it was considering lifting sanctions on Iran, a country it is currently at war with, and few days later, they did. Then they consider to lift sanctions on Russian oil imports, then few days later, they did.

Now, Ukraine has become a burden than a strategic tool to defeat Russia, now it has to go.

America don't have a choice. They can't afford to fund two major wars at the same time. And without outside funding, Russia will defeat Ukraine in 24 hours.

This is why I hate Zelensky, his country on it's own doesn't have the might or capacity to fight Russia, yet he will be making mouth.

USA and Israel that refused to adopt UN resolution, of recognition slave trade as a grave crime, are the real terrorists

Even USA politicians attested that USA and Israel are behind alqaeda, ISIS, Bokoharam etc but you this 80% stupid Nigerian Christians will always support evil a long as it is against Islam

This time USA and Israel will fall
