I held a conference call on the consequences of the Russian strike and recovery after the attacks. In tonight’s strike, there were 36 missiles approaching their targets along a ballistic trajectory. Only four missiles were successfully neutralized. Unfortunately, there remains a significant shortage of interceptors for Patriot systems, and the United States can above all help overcome it. At all levels, we are looking for ways to accelerate deliveries and convey the necessary signals to the American side so that they give Ukraine the ability to protect lives

There were detailed reports on the challenges facing Kyiv.
