"She never loses the camera angle though! Had that happened to me there is no way I'd have carried on walking and filming. The camera would be a wonky blur as I panicked wondering whether to run home or find immediate shelter."

Washington has become by far the largest supplier of arms to Ukraine since Russia launched the invasion on February 24, with more than $16.8 billion in military assistance provided since that date.

But US stockpiles of some equipment are "reaching the minimum levels needed for war plans and training," and restocking to pre-invasion levels could take years, Mark Cancian of the Center for Strategic and International Studies wrote in a recent analysis.
