The Pentagon also commented on Russia's statement. U.S. Defense Department spokesman Todd Breasseale said that the words of the head of the Russian agency "are obviously false again." The Pentagon spokesman also stressed that Ukrainians use HIMARS missile systems with remarkable accuracy and effectiveness.
