"There is no magic pill, no panacea for the armed forces of the Kyiv regime. They should be aware of it. After the emergence of those planes, their number will drop, they will be shot down and destroyed. Those supplies certainly won’t have any significant impact on the dynamics of the battlefield developments."

STORYLINE:
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Thursday that the delivery of F-16s to Ukraine "won’t have any significant impact" on the battlefield.

“There is no magic pill, no panacea for the armed forces of the Kyiv regime,” he said in a conference call with reporters.

“After the emergence of those planes, their number will drop, they will be shot down and destroyed."

The American-made F-16 is an iconic fighter jet that’s been the front-line combat plane of choice for the NATO alliance and numerous air forces around the world for 50 years.

Western countries have pledged F-16s to Kyiv, and some have arrived in Ukraine, officials in Washington and Ukraine confirmed to The Associated Press.
