Zelensky announced expectations of new air defense systems from partners in December and January. Germany will hand over the sixth IRIS-T system, as well as Patriot and Gepard launchers.

Ukraine expects air defense systems from several partners in December, because winter is a huge temptation for Russian terrorists. This was stated by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in an evening address, reports UNN.

"Today, the minister of defense of Ukraine returned from business trips abroad. He reported on new agreements and on the implementation of previous ones, especially on air defense. We expect systems from several partners in December, plus there are certain things that can be done in January for our air shield. It is important that it is not implemented without any delay. Winter is a huge temptation for Russian terrorists," Zelensky said.

Recall

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sibiga called on NATO countries to provide an additional 20 air defense systems to protect energy infrastructure in winter.

Germany in December will transfer to Ukraine the sixth IRIS-T System and launchers for Patriot and Gepard. In 2025, it will also supply air defense systems.
