US has transferred over 1 million rounds of ammunition which were seized from Iran, to Ukrainian armed forces, the countryβs Central Command has confirmed in an official statement.
Skyβs US correspondent Mark Stone explains why this move is βsymbolically significantβ for the US as Iran has been supplying Russia with weapons but warns the wider story is that US funding for Ukraine is currently on hold.

good move from the US πππ
Sending stolen equipment because theres nothing left but look at the cheerleaders go! π
That's just a treat. That's not much. Let's send more. Open up the 24 billion that we promised.
It is over.
The US is not 'on hold' with it's Ukrainian funding. As a reputable news source this disinformation (or stupidity) astounds me. The legislative branch cannot approve additional funds without a new separate bill or budget being passed. There is bilateral support in congress for funding of Ukraine, so this isn't even a big deal, but the military and the executive branch have LOTS of capacity for ongoing support even without an additional bill being passed until congress sorts out the US budget. -50 points Sky News
1 million rounds is absolutely nothing
Kahit trillion yan ubos yan lahat
Russias 3 day βspecial military operationβ is still going on? Wow
"Seized" or "stolen"? Might possibly delay the inevitable for a couple of days.
fabulous for those profiteering from war :thumb:
That will be gone very fast.
It went from Abrams tanks, to 1 million bullets.
The money and supplies for Ukraine is running out and all The European countries are looking at the US corporation/government to see if their going to keep supplying Ukraine because if not they will stop to.
So is the US corporation/ government ready to bankroll Ukraine for its needs and rob the American peopleβs money from the public purse yes or no
Fake news again
Let's prolong the war, it's good for business. We don't care if this causes more casualties and more deaths. Our only goal is to weaken Russia as we can. We know Ukraine can't win.
THIS MOVE EFFECTIVELY propels IRAN into a world class arms producer making world class military tools
They need the rounds , judging by the way some of the troops are spraying and praying.
Good , Sky news should give Ukraine their big nose anchor
We know that when there's danger the Mighty Mouse is there… On the land, on the sea or in the air. The War of the Mighty Mouse vs The Bear!
Good
Ukraine fighting without ammo, manpower and weapons… nice future, 1M bullets make a huge difference against largest and most advanced army in world π poor guys, better to just continue with begging, as usual, without fight.
More dead Ukrainians ….. I guess till the last one
The humanitarian thing to do is for the West to stop sending Ukraine the means to continue and unwinnable war which they are catastrophically losing.
the British and American Passport needs to be made the same ASAP
1 million rounds may seem a lot however it will only last for 4-5 days, and if we in the West already have a problem providing ammo for Ukraine's current situation it means we will be facing real danger in a future conflict…
Why is this news? Thatβs one days ammunition for Ukraine
2 weeks worth
Fluk the USA!!..πππ
That is rediculous! A frontline combat soldier use up atleast 100 rounds a day, meaning one single division of active combat soldiers will use up that million rounds in a day! How can this be any big deal or even worth be mentioned? If it was howitzer grenades, it would be significant!
Man its obvious who's on the side of order and justice, law of love…
They might wake up.
Someone save them from themselves? Evil only dies..
Is built that way .
That won't go very far with the amount of wastage. It's the matter of who runs out first.
Here to laugh at all the video game Generals in the comments. ππ€‘
Lets all clap our hands and join in and " give war a chance" …
We need to send more money and weapons to ukraine. Continue this fight. Ukraine first!
Stop wavying your flag around like youve captured something ukarine. Hannging it on some abandon buildings, a broken down truck, somewhere in the dark. I have never seen any other army do what your doing. Pathetic π
Why are Ukraine still trying to push forward they are dying for nothing now basically.
We Always have 2 do everything!!
πΊπ²
Yaaaay!!!!!!!π
if those gives support to ukraine will stop, there will never ever be peace on earth. Russia will continue to conquer any country he wants.
The U.S. is so desperate it's giving Ukraine ammunition it stole from Iran. That's rich.
Thats what america doing. Selling their weapons to other countries and make them fight. This world is not understanding this fact. America's economy depends on their weapon sale.
Hurry up
Shovels
More bullets sold in Texas on weekly basis
