Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Thursday that weapons deliveries to Ukraine have decreased since fighting erupted between Israel and Hamas last month. Specifically, Zelensky said supplies of 155mm artillery shells, which are widely used by Ukraine on the frontlines, have declined. He attributed the drop to countries prioritizing their own stockpiles during conflicts. Despite the decreased arms support recently, Zelensky praised efforts in the U.S. to increase production. The news comes as fighting in Ukraine has ground to a stalemate after nearly a year of war with Russia. Both sides have struggled to maintain artillery stockpiles during the drawn-out conflict.
