President Vladimir Putin hailed what could be the last NATO summit before Trump with “a slap in the face” for the alliance.
One of the worst missile attacks of the war in Ukraine occurred Monday, where 41 people were killed and at least 190 were injured, and the country’s largest children’s hospital,in Kyiv, was bombarded, leaving medical staff and sick children trapped under the rubble. There were images of emergency workers rushing to provide life-saving medical treatment to small children and bodies scattered throughout the site of the attack.
Kyiv’s air defense system has managed to protect the capital city from many attacks, but a resident named Anastasiia Orlova told The Daily Beast, “Last year, our air defense in Kyiv was stronger; not many missiles made it to Kyiv. Now, we are lacking air defense. While in the European Union and U.S. there are hundreds of Patriot air defense systems just gathering dust in warehouses or standing on military bases unused. The place that really needs them now Ukraine, gets just a minimum amount.
Although new aid is expected, a Ukrainian soldier serving on the Donbas front, who asked to be referred to as “Eddie,” said that he does not know if the proposed aid will truly help Ukraine. The new air defense aid is said to be “future proof” for Ukraine, but Eddie told The Daily Beast: “We hope those are not empty words. I hope it will help to avoid things like yesterday with few clinics and hospitals, including children’s hospital yesterday.
