In just three days of fighting in the Middle East, more than 800 Patriot missiles were used — more than Ukraine has received throughout the entire Russian full-scale invasion, President Volodymyr Zelensky said during a press briefing on March 5.
The statement comes as tensions continue to escalate in the Middle East after the U.S., in a joint operation with Israel, carried out strikes on several Iranian cities on Feb. 28 that killed Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei.
“Ukraine has never had this many missiles to repel attacks. More than 800 have been used over the past three days alone,” Zelensky said.
Trump is compromised. He’s straight up being blackmailed into this. Epstein had cameras planted all over his properties and vehicles. With his ties to Isreal and the way Trump is behaving shows he’s not in charge. Bb is our president and Putin is vp
Guess that plan didn’t work out, huh?
Absolutely shameful that the US started a pointless war, without congressional approval, then burned through a known limited resource that could have been gone to protect lives as protection from unjustified aggression. Instead, some chucklefuck decided to BE the aggressor and waste these protecting bases from retaliation that wasn’t coming until he stirred up the shit.
This helps out two groups: the military industrial complex and the Russians. Makes more sense than the current shit going on.
Just call it a special military operation lol.

Following the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, relations took a downturn during Yair Lapid’s tenure as Prime Minister of Israel.[3][4] Relations improved after Netanyahu’s return as Prime Minister, although cooler than they were before the invasion.[5] Unlike many Western countries, Israel has maintained relations with the Kremlin, refused to impose sanctions against Russia, and rejected calls to send military aid to Ukraine.[6] Relations became strained during the Gaza war.[7] However, Russia did not send any military aid to Iran during the Iran-Israel war.[8] The Russian language is the third-most widely spoken first language in Israel after Hebrew and Arabic; Israel has the third-largest number of Russian speakers outside of the post-Soviet states and the highest as a proportion of the total population; in 2017 it was estimated that 1.5 million Israelis could speak Russian, which would amount to 17.25% of Israel’s population.[9][10] Over 100,000 Israeli citizens live in Russia,[11] with 80,000 of them living in Moscow,[12] while hundreds of thousands of Russian citizens live in Israel.[9]
I know I feel less safe knowing the a lot of arsenal is spent.
If it helps, they were never meant to protect the US homeland. Logistically there is too much coastline and not enough batteries. You have the same amount of protection as you did before.
It seems clear to me that the world powers are letting Ukraine drag on to see how the tech and strategies develop, to learn as much as possible. If they just give Ukraine everything they need to stop Russia, they’ll miss out on all the data and experience that Ukraine is sharing.
Maybe Ukraine should have invaded Iran then!
