The people of Ukraine are continuing to fight for their nation's existence. Ukrainians have been aided in their struggle as the United States and its allies have flooded the nation with weapons to counter the Russian military.
"In less than a week, the United States and NATO have pushed more than 17,000 antitank weapons, including Javelin missiles, over the borders of Poland and Romania, unloading them from giant military cargo planes so they can make the trip by land to Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital, and other major cities," The New York Times reported on Sunday.
Just last week, the U.S. Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark Milley made a trip to an undisclosed airfield near the Ukrainian border that has become a hub for shipping weapons, a senior Defense Department official told CNN. Milley was able to see firsthand the multinational effort to get weapons into Ukraine amid Russia's unprovoked invasion.
