Ukraine Holds Ground Against Russian Advances but Struggles With Ballistic Missiles
Ukraine has effectively stalled Russian ground advances by disrupting logistics, but its air defenses remain vulnerable to ballistic missiles. President Zelenskyy describes these missiles as Moscow's 'final argument,' noting that Russia produces 120 per month, double the U.S. output of Patriot interceptors. Despite battlefield gains and long-range strikes deep into Russia, Ukraine struggles to counter ballistic missiles, which it intercepts at only 27%.
