Russia's guided bomb barrage leaves Ukraine's skies vulnerable

Russian forces use over 3,000 guided aerial bombs monthly to strike Ukraine, and the country lacks air defence systems to defend against them, said Volodymyr Zelensky.

Ukrainian president in Madrid at a joint conference said that the most pressing issue today is that Russia deploys over 3,000 guided bombs each month targeting civilians. He highlighted that Ukraine anticipates that number could rise to 3,500 next month.

Zelensky emphasized that Ukraine does not have enough air defence systems and missiles to repel these attacks.

In his opinion, Ukraine needs at least seven additional Patriot air defence systems, two of which would be allocated exclusively for Kharkiv.

The Ukrainian president stated that pressure must be put on Western partners to obtain such a large amount of weaponry.
