Every day we see in the news the atrocities and war crimes committed by Russian troops in Ukraine under the leadership of Vladimir Putin “Really scary. But we also see the incredible courage of the Ukrainian fighters defending their country in every possible way. A few days ago, The Wall Street Journal quoted a young Ukrainian fighter as saying: “Without the Javelins, it is very difficult to stop the advancing opponent“. This weapon was held by your hands and by the hands of Ukrainian heroes. And it gave a very good result!” said Biden.
The General Staff noted that this quote belongs to the fighter Alexander, who in early March destroyed six units of Russian armored vehicles, including three tanks, in one day with the help of Javelin.
