It has been roughly a year since the conflict between Russia and Ukraine began. Meanwhile, one of the most immediate consequences of the Ukraine crisis has been strained relations between Russia and the Zionist regime, which have had detrimental effects on Israel, especially its air strikes against positions in Syria. Tel Aviv, under US coercion, has adopted a hostile position against Moscow, denouncing Russia's military activities in Ukraine and supplying the Ukrainian regime with weapons to use in their fight against Russia.
The New York Times reports that the United States Department of Defense is removing a large cache of American munitions stored in Israel that were used in different conflicts in the Middle East. The Pentagon has allegedly decided to provide Ukraine with these weapons and ammunition.
"The United States has transferred a part of its arsenal from Israel to Ukraine," the Zionist regime's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated in an interview with CNN.
On a recent visit to Ukraine, Israeli Foreign Minister Eli Cohen met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and offered assistance and suggestions for the country's military revitalization.
"I reiterated to Zelensky Israel's unwavering support for Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity," Eli Cohen stated on his Twitter account. "I assured Zelensky that Israel would boost its help and participate in the post-war reconstruction of Ukraine," Cohen said.
During a meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart, Dmytro Kulba, the Zionist regime's Minister of Foreign Affairs stated, "Israel supports the Ukrainian peace initiative at the United Nations, which will be presented in the coming days, and provides $200 million for medical and infrastructure projects." Tel Aviv also intends to help Ukraine develop a sophisticated early warning system against aerial strikes.
The Russian Foreign Ministry has already expressed concern about escalating tensions with Israel's intention to ship military weapons to Ukraine.
In answer to a reporter's question on Israel's offer of military assistance to Ukraine, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova remarked at a news conference in Moscow that such a step would increase tensions between Moscow and Tel Aviv.
Zakharova added, "Any country that provides weaponry [to Ukraine] must realise that we would consider these weapons legitimate targets for the Russian military." "Our view is quite obvious," she continued. Everyone has to realise that trying to ship more or new weapons to Ukraine would only make the situation worse.
