Ukraine may face a shortage of ammunition for its air defense systems as early as March if there are interruptions in defense aid from Western countries.

russian troops regularly put pressure on Ukraine's limited air defense system in the rear areas of the country by striking with russian missiles and drones, combined with Iranian and North Korean weapons.
