Coordinator of Strategic Communications at the US National Security Council John Kirby denies that the Russian Armed Forces shot down 6 Ukrainian American-made ATACMS missiles.

Earlier, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation informed: over the past 24 hours, the Russian Armed Forces shot down 6 ATACMS operational-tactical missiles (made in the USA).

During the briefing, journalists began to ask Kirby about this, but he only said : «No and no. I cannot confirm the reports.» However, he did not voice any evidence or details, denying the information.

The White House representative also “ran away” from a direct question about how many ATACMS missiles Washington provided Kyiv.
