The city council of the southern Ukrainian city of Mariupol has accused Russian forces of bombing a maternity hospital
US and Polish officials are still discussing possible jet deal, but logistical hurdles remainUS and Polish officials have had a number of conversations since United States officials were caught off guard by, an administration official said, adding that the relationship between the two countries remains strong despite the disagreement.
But at the same time, Tuesday's disagreement underscores the logistical difficulties that have so far prevented Ukraine from securing the jets. And officials indicated that the odds are stacked against finding a solution to provide the jets and that there are no immediate apparent solutions to facilitate the delivery.
There are also a handful of other countries with the jets — including Slovakia, Romania and Bulgaria — and officials are not ruling out talks with those nations as they seek a way forward. One official said that Ukraine's initial request was directed at Poland, plus those three countries, but that Poland was the only country initially willing to entertain a possible jet transfer.
Another official said pressure to get the jets to Ukraine noticeably ramped up after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky pleaded with US lawmakers to facilitate a transfer during a Zoom call on Saturday morning.
