Zelensky reiterates his call for more air defences following a deadly Russian attack

# Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky has reiterated his call to allies to provide the military hardware required to down Russian missiles. At least 17 people were killed in Kyiv and surrounding areas yesterday, as Moscow fired more than two dozen ballistic and anti-ship missiles. Russia reportedly fired 115 drones and 24 ballistic missiles, and Kyiv’s depleted air defences did not intercept any of the missiles. Zelensky says partners who are not ready to help more actively with the supply of interceptors right now can help by imposing new sanctions on Moscow.
