NATO nations can send jets to Ukraine

 NATO countries can now send military aid in the form of fighter jets to Ukraine after Russia continued to strike in more cities in Ukraine. The US stated that they would help replenish countries if they sent arms to Ukraine. However, Ukraine's President called for a "no fly zone" over Ukraine because Russia said that any aircraft seen would be considered "participation in the armed conflict." Ukraine's President, Voldymyr Zelenskyy is not getting much support on this decision. The US and other allies of Ukraine are currently working on banning Russian imports of oil. Russia has already damaged many Ukraine towns by striking a major gas pipeline through an airstrike which has left Ukrainian citizens without heat and gas. Russian forces have also taken control of the "Zaporizhzhya Power plant" so any changes at the power plant must be approved by the Russian commander at the site.
