As Sabrina Singh puts it, “We’re talking about two very different landscapes and battlefields.”

Deputy Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh commented on the issue of allied assistance in repelling air attacks against Ukraine and Israel.

“We’re talking about two very different landscapes and battlefields,” she said.

“The President (Biden, – ed.) at the very beginning, when Russia invaded Ukraine, ordered that Ukraine be provided with what it needed on the battlefield. They are very successful in using air defense and other capabilities in order to continue to recapture their territory,” she said, Suspilne reports .

She claims that Biden has committed that the United States will not send troops to Ukraine, and that the United States supports it in its efforts to regain its territory.

Asked about the possibility of hitting air targets from Polish or Romanian territory, Singh said:

“That would mean that we are drawn into the war in a different way. And now we feel that Ukraine has been able to successfully defend itself against Russian attacks on its cities, on its population, on its infrastructure. And we will continue to provide them with the support they need to do that.”

Possibility of shooting down air targets by allies

In the event that Russian drones or missiles violate the airspace of NATO member states, the decision to shoot them down is made by national authorities . This was stated by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte after a meeting with President Volodymyr Zelensky

Rutte also stressed that the Alliance’s allies will continue to consult on this situation.
