West Jerusalem’s potential transfer of US-made Patriot sysytems to Kiev could backfire, Moscow’s ambassador to the UN has said

The US, Israel, and Ukraine are in discussions to deliver up to eight old Israeli Patriot systems to Kiev

“The weapons, whoever they are sent by… to Ukraine, will eventually be destroyed, just like other Western and US weapons. That is obvious,”

Throughout the conflict between Moscow and Kiev, Israel has only provided humanitarian aid to Ukraine, refraining from sending any weapons. A year ago, the Jewish state rejected a demand by Vladimir Zelensky for Israeli Iron Dome air defense systems.

Russia has repeatedly warned that foreign weapons being sent to Kiev will not prevent Moscow from achieving its military goals, and will merely prolong the fighting and increase the risk of a direct confrontation between Russia and NATO.
