As of today, it is critically important for Ukraine that all partners fulfill their promises regarding the supply of weapons and ammunition., stated Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
"The front. I clearly outlined what Putin plans to do this year. We have sufficient intelligence information. It is critically important for every partner to fulfill their promises regarding the supply of weapons and ammunition, as well as our agreements on joint production," the president said.
Zelenskyy noted that Russian occupiers launch missiles every day, while, according to the head of state, the number of promises of assistance from partners is increasing.
"Every day, Ukrainian soldiers on the front endure the harsh pressure of Russian artillery and guided air bombs. Reality finally needs to start matching words. I thank all the partners who are actually implementing what we agreed upon. We must do everything without wasting time to make our forces stronger," he emphasized.

New mass attack by Russia
Last night, Russian aggressors once again attacked Ukraine with kamikaze drones and various types of missiles. In particular, the occupiers launched Kinzhals. According to reports from the Ukrainian Air Force, the Kinzhals reached the western part of Ukraine.
The enemy targeted the Kharkiv, Lviv, Kyiv, Odesa, Zaporizhzhia regions, and other regions of Ukraine. Russians attacked critical infrastructure objects, damaging the power system. Power outages were introduced in the Kharkiv region.
More details on the consequences of the night attack can be found in the material by RBC-Ukraine.
Air defense for Ukraine
At the end of February, President Zelenskyy stated that the transfer of ten Patriot air defense missile systems to Ukraine would have a profound impact on the situation in the war with Russia.
Earlier, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba noted that the country needs Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems and other air defense systems designed to protect lives.
Additionally, on April 4th, Kuleba announced at a meeting of the Ukraine-NATO Council that Germany would initiate an immediate search for all available Patriot batteries and other air defense systems not only among allies but also globally, to transfer them to Ukraine.
It is worth mentioning that the Ukrainian Foreign Minister also emphasized during the Ukraine-NATO Council meeting at the level of Foreign Ministers in Brussels that the main message would be the provision of air defense systems to Kyiv. Specifically, this includes the Patriot system.
