Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy today, on August 10th, held a closed conversation with representatives of the military leadership of the United Kingdom, according to the president's video statement.

"Today I also had a conversation with representative of the UK military leadership - a confidential conversation. But an effective one," Zelenskyy told.

He also mentioned that Ukraine was preparing more defense packages for soldiers and additional protective systems for the entire Ukrainian society, particularly concerning air defense systems.

Currently, Ukraine possesses two Patriot air defense systems. One was provided by the United States, and the other was jointly delivered by Germany and the Netherlands.

Yesterday, on August 9th, Germany reported the transfer of two more Patriot launcher systems to Ukraine.

The President stated that, for effective defense against Russian attacks, Ukraine requires 50 Patriot batteries.
