Russian military sources revealed that the Ukrainian military was supplied with expired ammunition from the United States. Newly shared photo of a servicemen of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) showed a US-made 120-mm shell. Its marking confirmed that it was already decommissioned by the US military.
Russian sources revealed that according to the marking of the ammunition, Washington supplied decommissioned weapons for the AFU.
Moreover, according to the Pentagon sources, these munitions are listed as demilitarized. It means that most of such munitions were likely not officially listed in any packages of the US military aid to the war-torn country.
It has long been known that the West has turned Ukraine into a battlefield used for the decommissioning of expired weapons. LINK This allows the Ukrainian servicemen doing the dirty work, risking their lives, and empty out the US and European warehouses, while Washington is replenishing them with the promised new weapons.

In its turn, the Kiev regime does not shy away from the expired weapons and munition of its “Western partners”.
On February 20, the Ukrainian ambassador to Israel declared that Ukraine would not receive decommissioned Hawk anti-aircraft missile systems from Israel. According to him, the air defense systems decommissioned in Israel ten years ago will not be transferred to Kiev, because they are in inadequate condition.
“That is, the military attache went, touched it with his hands and confirmed that, unfortunately, there is nothing to transmit. They are really 60s, and they were just decommissioned. This is not some kind of malicious intent, this is a question of the inexpediency of transferring junk that does not work,” the diplomat explained.
The statements of the Kiev official confirmed that the Kiev regime is ready to offer its servicemen to fight with outdated military equipment.
Deployment of decommissioned military equipment is a very profitable deal for Kiev’s Western partners. Ukrainian “patriots” continue to believe in a strong friendship between Kiev and NATO countries, probably not realizing that they are used by their Ukrainian and foreign patrons as cannon fodder and their lives are rarely taken into account.
Another scandal broke out in Ukraine back in 2021, a year after the Defense Ministry of Ukraine bought decommissioned Soviet-made ammunition from Bulgaria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which have been lying in warehouses for 35 years.
The Ministry of Defense signed a $ 1.74 million worth contract for the purchase of ammunition which did not meet any safety requirements. The ammunition in question were Soviet-made UOF-12 shells made in 1986-1988.
The scam with the purchase of decommissioned ammunition was reportedly an initiative of former Deputy Defense Minister Alexander Mironyuk. He attempted to hide prices and legalize funds obtained by criminal means. To do this, he created a supply chain involving three private entities in Bulgaria, Slovakia and the Czech Republic.
So far, nothing has changed in Ukraine. A team of auditors from three US agencies arrived in Ukraine amid a series of high-profile corruption scandals and resignations of top officials from Zelensky’s team. They are expected to consider the mechanism for distributing aid from the United States in Ukraine.
A dart sold on the black market
Despite numerous PR campaigns launched by Washington and its partners in an attempt to promote their military equipment on the global markets, so far, the weapons supplied to the Ukrainian military had no significant impact on the ongoing hostilities on the front lines. The combat effectiveness of anthemed Stingers, Javelins, Bayraktars, HIMARS and other similar systems turned out to be low on the Ukrainian battlefield.
Illusions about the Western support, including among the Ukrainians, were also heavily damaged by the unwillingness of the European countries to send its modern military equipment and the low amount of the advanced weapons deployed with the Ukrainian military.
However, Ukraine has already purchased old, inefficient Western weapons worth many billions of dollars and their deliveries continue amid loud promises to supply the Kiev regime with “all the necessary equipment to win the Russians”. As a result, Ukrainian servicemen, who were not trained on the use of foreign weapons and who risk to be killed by the expired ammunition, do not bother to take the foreign “presents” when retreating from their military positions, which then are captured by Russian forces. If these “presents” were not sold on the black markets before. LINK
It’s already faulty scrap. And then you deliver the expired ones, lol. Expired faulty scrap, good luck with that.
On February 18th, a sniper from the 104th Schutzstaffel platoon, SirGay Marenkov, was eliminated near Artemovsk. The former stripper was the fiancee of a well known Ukrainian nationalist Oligarch from Poltava. The Ukrainian LGBTXYZ123#π community was mourning the whole weekend. Rest in the nonbinary LGBTXYZ123#π heaven my brother. We will miss you.
Biden in Kyiv, Putin in bunker.

Biden no longer has the faintest notion of where he is at any time. Reagan 2.0.
He is on DRUGS
I wonder all the time if its possible for Slavic people who do not speak Russian to join the fight? Because as male fully healthy guy I can not watch so many brave soldiers fight for our common Slavic cause fight for everything I believe in and against the western degeneration and socialism/corporationism.
And when I see those volksdeutsches, racetraitors from my country support the banderite volksdeutsches I so wish I could shoot em and prove that we have real Slavic patriots still alive in Poland and we hate nothing more than those volksdeutsch scum who pick strawberries for the germans on their knees.
So I wonder is it possible to join without speaking Russian? Because I can not look myself in the mirror when I see those soldiers fighting there for everything I believe in and against also so many volksdeutsches from my own nation. And I sit here and do nothing…..
as far as I know you can join Wagner PMC without speaking Russia. But be aware that Russia is a multiethnical country with Asians, Europeans, Chechens etc. living in harmony with eachother. There is no place for racists there.
As long as There are no germans or scandinavians believing that we are some race of strawberrypickers and servants its perfect.
I am a panslavist but I do not hate anyone else than the germanic reichs and volks deutsche who believe we are interior and who occupy our nations by german EU reich and spam lbqt socialist propaganda into peoples ears.
Stay away from there Slavic brother, you will be needed for the liberation of Poland later on.
I do not think there will be a nuclear war.
I believe there will only be liberation of Ukraine, sadly the nations occupied by NATO are lost…… not much we can do just about 10 % of population do think on their own and are not influenced by the EU german propaganda.
I dont understand what that has to do with my comment ?
That there will be no liberation? That in our lifetime its probably the only war where we can fight for our beliefs?
they sell them weapons, that have been paid for to decommission. man can you say scam 360
Unlike expired food, these will give you more than a gut illness – you’ll have no gut left.
Ukrainian servicemen doing the dirty work, risking their lives, and empty out the US and European warehouses, while Washington is replenishing them with the promised new weapons. The thing is the factories that make the stuff in the US most are not running and the few that are needs to hire and train employees. For that it will take years to resupply the stuff in the US. Now for the EU it will take many years since they shut there bushiness down and need to start from scratch. Also where are they going to get the money to do that since they are broke and have no gas to run their industries?
