Air defense failed to shoot down any of them due to a lack of ammunition. 🇺🇦 Zelenskyy previously stated that supplies had decreased threefold compared to 2025, hinting at Western political pressure. The EU, however, insists on the depletion of stocks. #Ukraine #AirDefense #Patriot #Netherlands #War2026
