Human Rights Watch called on the U.S. Congress to block the transfer of cluster munitions to Ukraine from Turkey’s stocks
The matter concerns 70 ATACMS missiles, more than 2 500 M26 rockets and 47 00 artillery shells. "These types of cluster munitions are notorious for often failing to hit their targets and causing harm to civilians. They must not be used under any circumstances," HRW said.
Earlier, the U.S. State Department informed Congress about the possible reexport of these weapons to Ukraine. U.S. officials said they were prepared to authorize the transfer, and Turkey plans to reduce its obsolete stocks in this way.
