In a major press conference, President Zelenskyy announced that Ukraine will receive several new Patriot air defense systems in the winter. These systems will be a major boost to Ukraine’s air defense capabilities and will help to protect the country from russian air attacks.
“I would like to note our partners, the Ukrainian Air Force and my team for what is happening with the strengthening of Ukrainian air defense. This is important, very important. This winter is different. It is also with challenges, unfortunately, with losses, but still less. We are becoming stronger every month. I had a serious trip with my team. Several new Patriot systems will be in Ukraine, to protect our state in the winter. This is a very important result,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
