Photo: Reuters Archive.The United States has given its approval for the Netherlands to deliver F-16s to Ukraine, the Dutch defence minister said, in a major gain for Kiev even though the fighter jets won’t have an immediate impact on the almost 18-month war.
He said Ukrainian"sabotage groups" had managed to hide out on the outskirts of the Russian-controlled town of Kozachi Lageri, near the Dnipro river, but that they were later"cleared out" by Moscow's forces. “On August 18, at about 04:00 Moscow time , the Kiev regime launched another terrorist attack using an unmanned aerial vehicle against objects located in Moscow and the Moscow region,” the Defence Ministry said in a statement.
"Today at 22:55 , the armed forces of Ukraine made an unsuccessful attempt to attack the ships of the Black Sea Fleet with an unmanned sea boat," the ministry said in a statement. "There can only be one threat: aggression against our country. If aggression begins even on the part of Ukraine, on the part of Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, we will respond instantly with everything that we have," Russian state news agency TASS cited Lukashenko as saying in an interview with Ukrainian journalist Diana Panchenko posted on her YouTube channel.
