According to Head of State Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukraine, together with its allies, was able to prepare powerful agreements to strengthen air defense against the backdrop of Russian aggression.
Points of attention
- President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasizes the importance of preparing for ongoing attacks by enhancing air defense systems, combat aircraft, and mobile fire groups.
- The agreements aim to provide Ukraine with the necessary resources and support to increase its resilience and diplomatic efforts in the face of escalating threats.
Ukraine's air defense will become even stronger
Volodymyr Zelenskyy drew attention to the fact that last night the aggressor country Russia launched more than 170 drones over Ukraine.
What is important to understand is that at least half of them are "shaheeds."
According to the president, this week the enemy attacked peaceful Ukrainian cities and villages with about 1,000 strike drones, almost 980 guided aerial bombs, and 36 missiles.
And every night requires multi-component protection of the sky — air defense systems, combat aircraft, mobile fire groups, interceptor drones. We are actively working with partners on each component to add protection to Ukraine.

On November 16, Volodymyr Zelenskyy promised to sign a "historic agreement" with France to strengthen Ukrainian aviation.
