US EditionZelenskyy Says Ukraine Shot Down Shahed Drones in Middle East
Zelenskyy said 228 Ukrainian experts helped partners build air defenses and Ukraine is getting weapons, oil, diesel and some financial support in return.
- On Friday, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy revealed that Ukrainian military personnel shot down Iranian-designed Shahed drones in multiple Middle Eastern countries during active defensive operations.
- Rather than training exercises, the deployment of 228 Ukrainian experts provided active support for building modern air defense systems, utilizing domestically produced interceptor drones.
- In exchange for security assistance, Ukraine receives oil, diesel, weapons, and financial arrangements. "We are helping strengthen their security in exchange for contributions to our country's resilience," the Ukrainian leader said.
- Concerns arise that military support for the 800-mile front line between Russian and Ukrainian armies might be diverted as Washington's focus shifts toward Middle East conflicts.
- Zelenskyy urged U.S. envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner to visit Kyiv for talks, though it remains unclear if discussions will occur there or elsewhere. He also pressed for restored sanctions on Russian oil to prevent Moscow from sustaining its war effort.
