It is noted that this issue was discussed during a visit to Washington by Israeli Defense Ministry Director General Amir Eshel.

During negotiations with US Deputy Secretary of Defense Colin Kahl, he announced Israel's unwillingness to approve the transfer of the Spike ATGM to Ukraine.

Eshel noted Israel's intention to supply Kyiv with non-lethal military equipment only. 

Earlier, the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mark Milley, said that the American side, together with partners, transferred 60,000 anti-tank and 25,000 anti-aircraft systems to the Ukrainian military.
