The media learned about the preservation of only a quarter of the Patriot missile stocks in the United States.

The United States has only about 25% of the anti-missile systems for the Patriot anti-aircraft missile system (SAM) after stocks in the Middle East have been completely depleted in recent months. This was reported on July 8 by The Guardian newspaper.

"Stocks of Patriot missiles have decreased so much that it has caused concern in the Pentagon, as this could jeopardize potential US military operations," the publication says.

As the newspaper pointed out, citing sources, the decision taken last month was largely based on data from the Pentagon's global ammunition tracking system, which will determine their minimum level for the implementation of plans for possible operations of the US armed forces.
