Biden condemns Russia's massive missile strike on Ukraine

Biden called the attack outrageous and noted that it "serves as yet another reminder of the urgency and importance of supporting the Ukrainian people in their defense against Russian aggression."

He expressed his support for Ukraine and reminded that earlier this year, at his direction, "the United States began prioritizing air defense exports, so they go to Ukraine first."

"The Department of Defense has delivered hundreds of additional air defense missiles to Ukraine as a consequence of this decision, and further deliveries are underway. For months, my Administration has been working to help Ukraine increase the resilience of its energy grid in preparation for the winter, and the Department of Defense continues to surge other critical capabilities to Ukraine, including artillery, rockets, and armored vehicles," the statement from the White House reads.

Biden also emphasized that "Russia continues to underestimate the bravery, resilience, and determination of the Ukrainian people." He added, "The United States stands with more than 50 countries in support of Ukraine and its fight for freedom."
