Absolutely dangerous and insane if this truly happens. Come on, @POTUS . Ukrainian kids are dying in their homes, others are shivering in bomb shelters & metro stops, while Ukrainian leadership and advocates beg for more weapons and ATACMS to defend their communities from attack.

US might scrap, at large expense to itself, ATACMS missiles that have reached expiry but could still be used by Ukraine to hit back at Russia. Lunacy.

Painful read, but it's important to share and show the range and horror of Russian crimes against civilians. Look what happens when Ukrainians fall under 🇷🇺 control. The elderly, vulnerable, and disabled are preyed upon + abused. Another reason why Ukraine can't stop fighting.

US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan ( @JakeSullivan46 ) made a surprise visit to Kyiv today. He said $300 million of ammo, air defense & other critical supplies needed for Ukraine’s army is being rushed here “as we speak.” Nothing on long-range ATACMS for now. No big news.
