President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said that at a time of heightened risk, the Patriot system needs additional missiles from Ukraine’s partners to protect the country from Russian attacks.

According to RBC-Ukraine materials, the Zelensky statement is based on the claim that Russia has a larger number of missile systems than Ukraine, and that the difference is 570 to 524.

Crimea needs to be protected from missile attacks, Zelensky said, as Russia has launched missiles against Ukraine and continues to do so. He also warned that the situation is extremely dangerous, noting that the Russian side is using missile systems and that it is important to send Patriot missiles to Ukraine.

According to RBC-Ukraine materials, it is also stated that in the next 2 years, the Russian Federation’s combined missile stockpile will increase, with 570 missiles in total, while Ukraine’s Patriot interceptors are 524.

It is also claimed that, on average, one interceptor is not enough to stop a single Iskander-M and Zircon missile, and that this is why Ukraine needs more Patriot interceptors. The materials also state that Ukrainian air defense systems are being developed to counter these missile threats.

Ukrinform also reports that the president said that the Russian side has a larger number of missiles than Ukraine has Patriot interceptors, which could lead to a situation where the missiles would not be stopped.
