Oleksii Reznikov, the Minister of Defence of Ukraine, has said that Ukrainian gunners are using high-precision Western weapons meticulously, HIMARS in particular.

Quote: "Our gunners use HIMARS very precisely - like a surgeon with a scalpel. And you can even see this in the photos of some bridge crossings where [the shells - ed.] are very accurately placed in the area of ​​the seams of the bridge connections.

There was a report from our colleagues, basically confirming our information, but they also had it thanks to satellite observation: the number of destroyed orc (Russian army) ammunition depots and the number of command posts. We are talking about fifty sites in terms of ammunition storage locations alone.

Which accordingly cuts off their supply chains and deprives them of the ability to conduct active combat operations, preventing them from raining a large number of shells and shots down on our Armed Forces."

Details: Reznikov added that Western partners have already seen that Ukrainian defenders work professionally and efficiently, "targets are chosen very intelligently and are hit effectively."

This increases their level of trust and readiness to provide further assistance, the minister added.
