President Zelensky has described as unacceptable the West’s hesitation in providing military aid to Ukraine after the Russian airstrike on Kharkiv. A new anti-aircraft system could fundamentally change the situation. He expressed his gratitude to countries looking for ways to help Ukraine.
“It is completely unacceptable that so many countries in the world are still thinking about how to fight terror, when all it takes is a few political decisions.” Stronger air defense for Kharkiv and the region of the same name, as well as the Sumy region and the southern regions is an “absolutely urgent need”.
To better protect its cities against Russian attacks, Ukraine demands more anti-aircraft systems, such as the American Patriot type, almost every day. A billion-dollar aid package for Ukraine has been stuck in the US Congress for several months.
“Disgusting Russian tactics”
The president recalled that one person was killed in a Russian drone strike on a residential area on Thursday; When rescuers arrived, a second airstrike took place. Three emergency workers died. “This is a disgusting Russian tactic,” Zelensky said.
In his video address, Zelensky also said the situation on the ground was stabilizing. It was possible to prevent the occupiers from making further advances. “Given the ammunition shortage and significant delays in deliveries, these results are really good.”
Zelensky also said that Ukraine is becoming stronger in the production of drones and electronic warfare tools. A missile program is also being developed to strengthen the military operations of the armed forces in this area.
Attacks on healthcare workers
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), there have been numerous attacks on health workers in ambulances and other health transport in recent months during the war in Ukraine. Many emergency teams come under fire on their way to a mission or at their base.
“This is a terrifying pattern”
According to the WHO, 68 attacks on healthcare institutions were counted in the first quarter, including twelve attacks on emergency services. Four helpers were injured and two were killed. “This is a frightening pattern,” said Emanuele Bruni, WHO incident manager in Ukraine. In the months of January and March, almost one attack per day took place, often using heavy weapons.
