US ships uranium ammunition to Ukraine
- According to the U.S. Secretary, depleted uranium munitions are heavier than conventional and "very effective" artillery shelters.
The United States sends depleted uranium munitions to Ukraine. They will be tank explosives and, according to US Secretary Antony Blink, they are heavier than conventional and "very effective" artillery against armour.
It will be the first time that the US has sent uranium weapons to Ukraine. The shipment has been discussed in the Pentagon because of the contamination produced by the ammo. Some senior US military officials say they have no radioactive risks, but Russia does not believe it. Sergei Riabkov, Deputy Foreign Minister of Russia, has defined U.S. dispatch as "criminal action." "Washington's disregard for the environmental consequences is reflected in the use of such munitions in the fighting territories."
