    Pentagon: Ukraine will use anti-personnel mines provided by the US only on its own territory

    The Pentagon has confirmed the provision of anti-personnel mines to Ukraine for use exclusively on its own territory. The decision was made due to a change in the tactics of Russian troops on the battlefield.

    The US Department of Defense assured that the Ukrainian Defense Forces will use the anti-personnel mines provided by Washington only on their own territory. This was announced at a briefing by Deputy Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh, UNN reports.

    The Ukrainians have given us their assurances that they are going to use them only in Ukraine… We offer different types of mines. I'm just not going to go into further details

    – Singh said.

    The Pentagon deputy spokeswoman added that the reason why the US is providing anti-personnel mines to Ukraine is that "the battlefield and the fight has changed" in the context of Russia's ongoing war against Ukraine, and Washington is responding in terms of providing assistance to the Ukrainian armed forces.

    Russia has changed its tactics. So they are not conducting (offensives – ed.) with their mechanized forces,

    – Singh said.
