The United States is accused by Russia of leading a 'war gang' with its plans to deliver F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken confirmed that a first batch of F-16s is already being transferred from Denmark and the Netherlands and will be operational in Ukraine by summer.

Plans to deliver F-16 fighter jets to Ukraine show that the United States is leading a 'war gang' fighting Russia, the state-run TASS news agency quoted Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova as saying on Wednesday.
