“The U.S. has cleared the way for the Netherlands to deliver F-16 jets to Ukraine, Dutch authorities said Friday, a potentially significant boost to Ukraine in the medium term as it seeks to expel Russian troops from its territory,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“So far, Ukraine has received none of the supersonic F-16s, cutting-edge jet fighters that can engage in air-to-air combat and conduct air-to-ground strikes.”
New York Times: “Ukraine’s counteroffensive, which began two months ago, has a chance of prevailing without the fighter jets, experts say, but it is likely to be far more difficult.”
