The United States and its allies were on Monday night engaged in a race against time to get weapons into Ukraine, amid growing concern that Russia may try and cut off the weapons pipeline.
Images of NATO aircraft unloading near the border with the embattled neighbor have been shared widely by political leaders and on social media, and General Mark Milley, the chairman of the joint chief of staff, was on Sunday touring 'secret' airfields to witness the transportation.
The U.S. and its allies have delivered 17,000 anti-tank missiles to Ukraine so far, and two days after the conflict erupted the White House approved a $350 million package of military support. Yet on Monday a senior official told ABC News there are indications Russia may attack one of those supply chains in Poland before it gets to Ukraine.
Vladimir Putin could potentially use air power to stop the flow, ABC reported.
Russian troops and equipment have for months been building on the border with Ukraine, with satellite images showing heavily fortified areas being created, from which to launch long-range artillery.
The supply lines could be attacked from a distance, officials believe.
Volodymyr Zelensky, the Ukrainian president, has repeatedly requested air power assistance in order to destroy these fortified areas.
Ukrainians have seen success in attacking Russian resupply areas, mostly in the north but also among smaller, moving groups.
On Friday, a defense official told reporters the weapons were getting into Ukraine through 'multiple venues,' without elaborating.

Just think. A 40-mile highway of death.
Wait, I thought Russia was getting their ass handed to them in Ukraine. Now they are going to attack Poland?
This could quickly foment WW3. Is this what everyone wants? A nuclear holocaust worldwide?
Further reason for Putin to ‘take direct action’:

Poor Poland will be the sacrificial lamb for this war.
This guy is going to drag us into WWIII.
The Russian terms presented yesterday were perfectly reasonable. He even gets to keep his job. He should accept them.
General Mark Milley, the chairman of the joint chief of staff, was on Sunday touring ‘secret’ airfields to witness the transportation. and making sure all US troops and contractors had their CRT training cards up to date and were using the correct personal pronouns.
No.
Do you want direct NATO involvement? Because that's how you get direct NATO involvement.
100% of the assembled forces are now in Ukraine. It's a target rich environment. How long would those tanks and other military vehicles last if NATO starts bombing them from all sides.
Russia might bomb 100 years into Ukraine. But no way would they bomb in Poland.
FJB got us here.
Two ways to interpret this.
1. They are so strong and confident, they do not worry about directly attacking a NATO country.
2. They are so desperate they feel their only hope is to attack a NATO country.
They really are doing everything they can to gin up WWIII aren’t they?
I mean, Russia is supposedly getting thrashed, yet they’re also going to be shelling a NATO country (which would automatically start a NATO-Russia war)? What kind of idiots are producing this nonsense?
Not sure why this guy is the world leader all of a sudden. The media portrayed him as a great revolutionary leader now they got him making these “powerful, defiant” speeches. That’s why they wanted an actor in power over there.
The western countries are telling him not to do that: "You can wear down the Russians and win this war! You'll be a hero!"
I would interpret as just more psyop propaganda churned out for the proles to consume.
Good God! How stupid can you be.
“A nuclear holocaust worldwide?”
Maybe so. Covid didn’t work.
If you read Twitter, the mighty Azov Battalion (with their Nazi patches now photoshopped off) are getting ready to march on Moscow! And having lost not a single man!
