The USA has halted arms supplies to Ukraine, - Politico
The USA has suspended the supply of some anti-aircraft missiles and other high-precision munitions to Ukraine due to concerns that Pentagon stocks have been significantly depleted, according to reports citing sources.

According to Politico, the suspension of weapons supplies was initiated by Elbridge Colby, head of the U.S. Department of Defense's policy division, after an inventory check.

Official Kyiv has already responded to this information, and the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry summoned the U.S. chargé d'affaires for consultations. Diplomats say that communication with the American side is ongoing to clarify the situation.

At the same time, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense is "clarifying the current factual circumstances of supplies" and urges not to draw premature conclusions.

Updated (20:30): Ukraine is clarifying details with the USA regarding the supply of military aid, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy reported after it became known about the suspension of deliveries of some air defense missiles (PVO) and other high-precision munitions.

Zelenskyy said he heard reports from the defense and foreign ministers of Ukraine. "In particular, regarding relations with the USA. Currently, working levels between Ukraine and the USA are clarifying all details regarding the supply of defense support, including the PVO component. One way or another, we must ensure protection for our people," he said in a video address.
