The armed forces of Ukraine have almost run out of AIM-120 and AIM-9 air-to-air missiles for F-16 fighter jets, Vladimir Zelensky’s former press secretary Yulia Mendel said.

"In Ukraine, the missiles F-16s use are almost gone. AIM-120s and AIM-9s are running out. Patriot batteries are also critically short of PAC-3 interceptors needed to stop ballistic missiles," she wrote on the X social network.
