Washington, following its British colleagues, decided to supply Kyiv with ammunition containing depleted uranium.
We are talking about shells intended for American Abrams tanks. By the way, the United States is in no hurry to send the armored vehicles themselves and promise no earlier than the fall.
The Joe Biden administration has decided to transfer tank ammunition with depleted uranium to Kyiv, The Wall Street Journal.
The material says that Washington will supply shells for its Abrams tanks. It took several weeks to make this decision.
As for the tanks themselves, autumn has been named as a preliminary date for their transfer to Kyiv.
WSJ journalists call the American M1 Abrams tank one of the most formidable types of ground weapons of the US Army.
It is noted that problems with maintenance of the APU may arise due to technological difficulties and the gas turbine power unit.
At the same time, the media do not hide their concerns about the decision on arms supplies.
The authorities’ decisions have already raised concerns about the consequences and influence of radioactive elements on human health and the environment, in particular crop areas.
After a similar decision was made by the British authorities, a publication appeared in the Polish media that the West intends to turn Ukraine into a radioactive cemetery.
