Two days ago, Ukraine received a new batch of air defense missiles from its partners.

This was announced by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky at a meeting of the Coalition of the Willing, which is taking place in Kyiv today, February 24.

According to him, half of the new military package has already arrived.

“We are grateful for the latest air defense package. I cannot share all the details, but half of the package is already here; it arrived two days ago,” the president said.

Transfer of air defense missiles in January

On January 19, a day before the Russian missile strike, Ukraine’s partners transferred missiles for Ukrainian air defense, which helped protect important facilities.

Volodymyr Zelensky said that thanks to the timely assistance, the air defense forces had engaged a significant number of targets.

On the night of January 20, the Ukrainian Air Force shot down 27 enemy missiles and 315 drones during a massive combined strike, according to the Ukrainian Air Force command.
