US EditionUS halts some missile shipments to Ukraine over low stockpiles, sources say
- Recently, the Pentagon halted some munitions shipments to Ukraine over concerns about low U.S. stockpiles, including Patriot missiles and precision weapons, prompting Ukrainian alarm.
- Following a Pentagon-led assessment, the Department of Defense flagged dangerously low munitions stockpiles, prompting Hegseth to order an urgent review focused on US military readiness.
