Ukrainian army has completely exhausted its stock of ATACMS missiles
The Ukrainian military has used all of the ATACMS missiles that were transferred to the US, the last of which were used up in late January.
Here's What We Know
Ukraine has run out of ATACMs, according to a U.S. official and a Ukrainian lawmaker on the country's defence committee. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to provide details of the military weapons.
The US has provided Ukraine with fewer than 40 ATACMS missiles. Senior Pentagon officials, including Joe Biden's defence secretary, Lloyd Austin, have stressed that the weapons are being supplied in limited quantities because the US and NATO consider other types of weapons more effective for combat operations.
As a reminder, in November 2024, then US President Biden allowed Ukraine to use ATACMS to strike Russian territory. On the night of 19 November, the Ukrainian military used these missiles for the first time to attack Russian targets.
