Weapons from Israel
Israeli Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Sharren Haskel has initiated the transfer of any Russian-made weapons found in Hamas and Hezbollah militants to Ukraine. In turn, Ukrainian Ambassador Yevhen Korniychuk welcomed this and noted that the countries are fighting "the same enemies".
"Weapons made in Russia, which are in the hands of terrorist organizations, prove that Russia supports and encourages Iran, Hezbollah and Hamas and all those who seek to kill Israeli citizens and soldiers," he said.
As is known, since the beginning of the full-scale war in Ukraine, the country's government has refused to supply weapons, so this policy may not change.
It should be recalled that in October, the Israeli army, during ground operations in southern Lebanon, found many Russian-made weapons in the tunnels of the terrorist organization Hezbollah.
And the Polish General explained how the US permission for the Armed Forces of Ukraine to strike distant targets in Russia will change the course of the war in Ukraine.
