“Everyone believes that (Russian missiles) are running out. But there is no need to jump to conclusions. Russia will do everything possible to get as many weapons as possible in the war against Ukraine,” Ignat said, according to Ukrinform.

According to the military spokesman, Russia now sees the need to respond to some of its high military commanders, who have complained about a lack of weapons, and it is likely that for this “it will look to third countries to buy both projectiles and drones”. .

In this sense, Ignat has appealed to the Ukrainian military authorities not to relax and to continue guaranteeing the country’s territorial defense, acquiring anti-aircraft systems and repelling drone attacks.
