\The West has pledged to send arms and other necessary supplies to Ukraine as it continues to fight off a Russian invasion ordered by dictator Vladimir Putin. A new report reveals that the arms sent by the West and other European nations have been arriving in a secret location near the border of Ukraine.
AFP reports Friday last week, US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley, who is overseeing the reception of arms and military supplies to Ukraine by 22 donor countries, inspected the runway where an average of 14 wide-body aircraft arrive every day since the invasion. The press was forbidden to take pictures of the location, as well as officials that are inspecting the arms and vehicles being brought into the country.
During the inspection, personnel was preparing 100 Javelin anti-tank missiles for delivery of the border to Ukraine. Men wearing civilian clothes moved the missiles using forklifts, covered in plastic and stacked on pallets.
Military officials told reporters that the missiles were immediately taken to their destinations and did not stay in one place for long. Up to 18 deliveries were made in a day at the site, four out of five each day came from the US. The operation of preparing and sending in arms and the necessary supplies were coordinated between military and civilians, mainly from NATO member countries who have voiced support for Ukraine.
A Pentagon official said Friday last week that the US has so far delivered most of the arms it promised Ukraine back in February, which was able to effectively slow down the Russian offensive.
Many other countries also joined the West in imposing sanctions on Russia for invading Ukraine. New Zealand’s government has introduced legislation that would allow the country to impose its own sanctions on Russia.
New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the sanctions would allow them to target and freeze Russian assets in New Zealand and prevent Russians from moving their money and assets into the country to escape sanctions in Russia. The sanctions will also stop superyachts, yachts, and planes from entering New Zealand’s waters and airspace.
