Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu said that any NATO vehicle coming to Ukraine with weapons or equipment for Ukrainian forces will be considered a legitimate target to be destroyed, APA reports citing Sputnik.

"The United States and its NATO allies continue to pump weapons to Ukraine. I can confirm that any transport from the North Atlantic alliance that arrives in the country with weapons or materiel for the Ukrainian armed forces will be considered by us as a legitimate target for destruction," Shoigu said on Wednesday.

According to him, during the course of the special operation, the Russian servicemen have "shown courage and bravery, honourably fulfilling their military duty, and ensuring the safety of the civil population of Donbas."
