Ukraine Receives First Batch Of US-Made F-16 Jets, Zelensky Says Pilots “Already Using Them”

Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky has confirmed that Kiev has received a batch of F-16 fighter jets from its Western allies without specifying how many. “F-16’s are in Ukraine. We did it. (Ukrainian pilots) have already begun to use them in our country’s interests,” he wrote on his Telegram channel. Zelensky also posted a video of him speaking to Ukrainian pilots with an F-16 jet seen behind him. The Economist reported that Ukraine has received 10 F-16 fighters from Western countries and by the end of the year the number will increase to 20. Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that supplying new weapons to Kyiv, including F-16s, wouldn’t change the situation at the front but would prolong the conflict.

  1. I am so sick of this guy, and all the money Dems giving them, and our arsenal shame on these liberal law makers. While Genocide is happening in Palestine no help.

  2. What can you gain do even you get the whole 🌍 world? We live temporary..this world will pass away…lets do in LOVE let them live in their own life ❤️✌️🙏😇✌️♥️

  3. The national markings of the F-16s are carefully obscured. They are most likely from Belgium. No UAF decals have appeared and the tail shown is from a Su-24.
    Careful examination is the footage is worth noting. It is most likely green screened.
    The routine air 'policing game' has nothing to do with the F-16s so why conflate unrelated and unremarkable material?
    You make it even more ridiculous by mentioning former attacks on bases from long ago.

  4. I'm going to bet that those f-16's will go the way the Abrams went…Ukrainians will say they are junk and uneasy to handle and that Russian made weapons are better

  5. Yet another game changer like the Abrams, Leopards and Challengers that won't change anything. The hunt is on, as for the Abrams a cash prize has been promised to Russian soldiers who destroy the F16s

  6. How much money has that douchebag soaked the american taxpayers for, nobody ever fights a war on someone elses dime, we need real leadership in america Trump 2024🇺🇸first

  7. Big Brothers Russian angry his small brother ukraine Russian, what's the problem what's problem they making friends to NATO Western, Jealous there is no love anymore only WAR is the way of true strength power of justice,fair some less leader politician while for people are not?

  8. stop NATO aggressively surrounding Russia- the best self defence if you are tight in the corner surrounded by enemy is forward attack. normal military rule. it was provoked. breaching of Minks peace agreements ignited that

  9. Yada, yada, yada F-16 this and yada, yada, yada F-16 that. Good grief !!! Ukraine has lost the GD war….give it up and throw that bum Zelinsky and his boys out of Ukraine.

  10. The Americans are mad. They are imposing war to Europe. Europe needs to.understand that once Russia starts attacking them , America will not come to their aid as they have done on many occassions. They need to take wise decisions and de – escalate the situation. There was no need for Ukraine to join NATO. Americans have dragged Ukraine into the war, and the war supporting corporates are making huge profits from this.

  11. Sure like it would make a difference in this war. Remember when they tries to fool the world “Tanks would push back Russia” but it was the opposite, Russia took more land from Ukraine.

    Thank you Zelenksi for Nothing.

  12. I live in Poland and most of the Ukraineans here have the same behaviour as Zelensky ,demanding all the time benefits and other stuff ,never learn english and act as if they own the land lolz 😂😂I think it s time for this ppl to go back under the rock where they were born, peace from Romania

  13. More painful to Russia 😅

    Russian knows how capable
    F-16 it is it is more superiority than su30 and su-35
    WHEN IT COMES OF SKY
    NO ONE CAN BEAT USA
    RUSSIA AND CHINA KNOWS IT 😊
