Syrsky reported on work to obtain a modern air defense system to intercept russian Oreshnik missiles. Negotiations with allies are underway and Ukraine's own air defense system is being developed.

Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi said that Ukraine is working on obtaining a modern air defense system capable of intercepting russian Oreshnik missiles. He said this in an interview with journalist Andriy Tsapliyenko, UNN reports.

"Oreshnik is a threat. At the moment, only a few air defense systems can intercept it. We don't have such systems, but we must do everything we can to get them

- Syrsky said.

According to him, this is what motivates the Ukrainian defense industry to create its own air defense.

This should be not just an anti-air system, but an anti-missile system. This encourages us to negotiate with our allies to get such a system... The work is underway, and I hope that we will get the desired result in the near future

- The Commander-in-Chief said.
