The White House will announce this week thatUkraineCBS News correspondent Ed O'Keefe will purchase an advanced medium- to long-range ground-based aerial missile defense system for Washington. is. It was expected that more shells and radar systems would also be promised to respond to urgent requests from Ukrainian leaders.
Mr. Biden and his fellow G7 leaders, who met in Germany on Monday, have a new appeal from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, who was virtually supposed to address them from Kieu. Was likely to be heard. He said in his daily video address on Sunday night that Ukraine immediately neededmilitary, financial and humanitarian assistanceto counter Russia's aggression. Told to.
As CBS News correspondent Ramy Inocencio reported from the Ukrainian capital, Russia is relatively a few weeks in Kieu aslaunches a volley of long-range missiles in the city. Crushed calmEarly Sunday morning. It was a clear manifestation of the Kremlin's power when Western leaders gathered in Germany to strengthen military and financial support for Ukraine.
Kieu Mayor Vitali Klitschko said Russian missiles attacked at least two homes, and Zelenskyy said Sunday. He said he was 37 years old in his speech that night. A man was killed and his 7-year-old daughter and his wife (Russian national) were injured.
Mr Biden, who arrived in Germany for the G7, called the attack "barbaric."
Zelensky ridiculed the Russian army in a speech, stating that he "bravely defeated the kindergarten and apartment buildings," praising his defenders and "Europe" to the US and European allies. I warned that it was not "the future of Europe". Just Ukraine was decided.
"The G7 leaders gathered in Germany today for the summit have enough power to thwart Russia's attacks on Ukraine and Europe as a whole," Zelensky said. "But that is only possible if we receive everything we need within a reasonable time frame. Weapons, financial assistance and sanctions against Russia. There is no substitute for this war."
Ukraine "If they are not just observers, they really need to be our partners, we need to act more efficiently," said the leader of the West of Ukraine.
Innosensio said one of the missiles that attacked Kyiv over the weekend collided with the roof of a previously attacked apartment building two months ago. He said Russian troops could be targeting Soviet-era weapons factories across the street, but rockets instead attacked residential buildings.
Zelenskyy said some of the missiles launched by Russian troops were shot down on Sunday morning. But in a few weeks the first strike against Kieu helped him make a claim for a more modern air defense system from the international community.
Such advanced weapons have already begun to arrive. A video appeared over the weekend, and the destroyed military truck is believed to be one of the first Russian targets to be attacked by multiple US-supplied launch-guided rocket systems known as HIMARS.
They arrived in Ukraine just a few days ago, but it was too late to save the eastern city of Severodonetsk.
The main city of Donbus, the industrial center of eastern Ukraine,crashed on Saturday by Russian invaders., the Ukrainian army was ordered to withdraw.
Russia has slowly solidified its dominance over Donbus as a whole. With the collapse of Severodonetsk, the two regions that make up Donbus, Luhansk and Donetsk, have only one major city under Ukrainian control.
Lysychans'k sits across the Siverskyi Donets from Russia's now-owned Siverskyi Donets, which has been decimated.
As Innosensio reports, the collapse of the first two cities has hit Ukraine both territory and morale in the fifth month of the war. Zelensky and his military commander help them get from their Western partners to meet in Germany this week if they have the hope of seizing Lysychansik.
