Leaked Pentagon papers predict Ukraine air defenses will be exhausted by MAY 23

As the war between Russia and Ukraine rages on, leaked documents have predicted that Ukrainian air defenses could be exhausted next month, leaving Vladimir Putin free to send in fighter jets.

Leaked documents, appearing to be from the Pentagon, have appeared online in recent days, which include classified information and details about Ukrainian resources for their air defenses.

The documents are said to contain details about how Ukraine's S-300 air defense systems could run out of missiles and ammunition as early as May 2 based on the usage at the time the documents were created. The documents also appeared to detail how air defenses protecting Ukrainian troops fighting on the front line could end up being 'completely reduced' by May 23.
