In just the first three days of the new year, the Russian army has launched over 300 attack drones and around 20 missiles, including ballistic ones, against Ukrainian cities and villages. A large amount was shot down or neutralized by our forces using electronic warfare means.
However, unfortunately, there have been hits, resulting in casualties and injuries. My condolences to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives.
Additionally, daily strikes continue with Russian guided aerial bombs.
Such Russian terror, which continues with unrelenting intensity, requires both us and all our partners not to reduce efforts in strengthening our air defense shield and all its systemic components—from Patriot systems to mobile fire groups.
We must consistently replenish our stock of missiles for air defense and continuously enhance the capabilities of mobile fire groups. I am grateful to all our partners who are helping.
We are preparing for meetings and negotiations next week to further strengthen our air defense. The schedule for this work has already been preliminarily agreed upon.
@vekstportef Det er visstnok en stor ære å motta pennen som signerer en slik avtale av presidenten. De som har utarbeidet avtalen står gjerne i kø for å få pennen. For meg ser det ut som om Biden er rørt over sin egen gest🤷♀️ Men da må man se hele seansen..
