Ukraine Must 'Unblock' Patriot Missile Delivery, Zelenskyy Says After Deadly Strikes
Zelenskyy said Ukraine received only 24 Patriot interceptors in three months as Russian strikes killed at least four people and injured dozens.
- On Saturday night, Russian drone and missile attacks killed four people in the Dnipropetrovsk region, prompting President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to urge that agreed-upon deliveries of interceptors for Patriot systems be unblocked.
- Zelenskyy stated during an interview last week that Ukraine requires around 350 Patriot interceptors monthly to defend against attacks, yet Kyiv has received only 24 missiles over the past three months.
- Ukraine's air force reported that Russia launched 153 drones and cruise missiles, with 119 intercepted across 15 locations including residential buildings, power plants, and coal mines.
- Special envoy Steve Witkoff recently held peace talks in Oslo and Petersburg, though Russian presidential aide Yuri Ushakov said a potential deal "still needs work" ahead of November meetings in the United Arab Emirates.
- The supply shortage is exacerbated by the ongoing American-Israeli conflict with Iran, as American and allied forces expend significant numbers of interceptors to defend against Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks across the Middle East.
