Patriot Missile Defense System from Romania Arrives in Ukraine
The Patriot anti-missile defense system provided by NATO member Romania has arrived in Ukraine, the representatives of both countries admitted.
“I thank every country that helps us with air defense. A special thanks to Romania for the ‘Patriot’ systems. Together, we can achieve even greater efficiency, we can put an end to Russian terror by jointly taking down ‘Shaheds’ and missiles,” said Zelenskyy in his evening address on October 2.
At the beginning of September, Romania approved the transfer of a Patriot air-defense battery to Ukraine.
Previously, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the need for at least seven such systems to effectively shield Ukraine’s major cities.
