Jean-Pierre was answering a journalist’s question about “a series of explosions at an air base in Crimea” and whether the US considers Crimea a legitimate target for the Armed Forces, to which the Pentagon has provided weapons.
“As you know, we support Ukraine’s efforts to protect its sovereignty and its territorial integrity, as we have said many times. The struggle continues in the east and southwest of the country, and is far from over. We warned that it could be a long and protracted war . We will continue to ensure that Ukraine can resist Russia’s unprovoked aggression, and this is in the center of our attention… We will continue to support Ukraine in their struggle for their freedom, in their struggle for their sovereignty against a brutal attack by Russia,” she said she.
Addition
On August 9, explosions rang out in the temporarily occupied Crimea, near the village of Novofedorivka, Saksky district.
Later, the occupiers confirmed this information and declared an emergency at the airfield. Traffic jams immediately appeared on the road from Novofedorivka to Saky, and eyewitnesses noticed “fast cars”.
