Two wars, one price: US uses up Patriot interceptors in Iran conflict and can no longer supply Ukraine
The Ukrainian capital of Kiev was hammered with missile fire last night. But the real story isn’t just in the resulting damage but the reason they couldn’t do anything about it. Russia launched a massive barrage of ballistic and hypersonic missiles against the Ukrainian capital. Fires erupted across Kiev in warehouses, logistics hubs, and industrial facilities. Ukraine didn’t fire even one interceptor, not one, because they have run out of Patriot interceptors. America Now anchor Ben Swann discusses the story with Ben Freeman, author of ‘The Trillion Dollar War Machine’. Plus, a deadly plane crash in New Mexico is raising new questions about whether military technology may have played a role – America Now’s Jalyssa Dugrot reports the details. And, is this real? The European Union is no longer granting new temporary protection to most draft-age Ukrainian men who can’t prove they legally left Ukraine or have fulfilled their military obligations. The manpower shortage has become so severe, Ukraine wants to forcibly import back men who made it out of the country alive.
