According to the newspaper, the APU is forced to find a "creative way out of the situation"

NEW YORK, July 19. /tass/. The Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) expressed dissatisfaction with the fact that Western countries did not provide Kiev with a sufficient number of fighters or air defense systems. This was reported on Tuesday by The Wall Street Journal.

The publication cites the opinion of the commander of the AFU unit fighting near Artemivsk, Yuri Ulshin, who pointed out that Western countries "made a serious mistake" by supplying Ukraine with tanks and armored vehicles, but not providing Kiev with a sufficient number of fighters and air defense systems to protect equipment.

"It's like giving a bicycle without pedals," the publication quotes the words of the military. - Thanks a lot for the bike, but..."

According to the newspaper, the Ukrainian military are forced to find a "creative way out of the situation." "Recently at night they climbed a slag heap to install a camera connected to a Starlink Internet terminal powered by a generator. The camera provides a transmission that can help them detect Russian planes at a distance," the newspaper writes.

Starlink is a satellite Internet service of Elon Musk's SpaceX company. It consists of mass-produced small satellites in low Earth orbit that interact with ground-based transceivers.
