Ukraine Claims 50 Russian Ammunition Depots Destroyed by HIMARS

Ukraine Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov claimed Monday that US-supplied HIMARS rocket systems had destroyed 50 Russian ammunition depots since their deployment last month.

The US has sent 12 HIMARS or High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems to Ukraine, capable of striking with greater range and precision than any other Ukrainian artillery system.

The Lockheed Martin system fires six GPS-guided GMLRS munitions in quick succession over 80 kilometers (50 miles).
