Ucraina primește de trei ori mai puține rachete de apărare aeriană decât în 2025, avertizează Zelenski

Ukraine has received only one-third of the air defense missiles from allies in 2026 compared to last year, according to President Zelensky. This reduction is not temporary and has persisted throughout the first half of the year. The lack of Patriot missiles, crucial for intercepting Russian ballistic missiles, has become increasingly evident as Russia intensifies its attacks on Kyiv. Ukrainian forces have struggled to intercept incoming missiles, with recent attacks highlighting the vulnerability. Analysts suggest targeting Russian launchers before they can be used as a potential solution.
