Zelenskiy criticises lack of air defence equipment after Chernihiv attack and says west should do more
Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskiy blamed Russia for the attack on Chernihiv but also said the west should do more to help defend Ukraine’s skies, reports Agence France-Presse (AFP).
“This would not have happened if Ukraine had received sufficient air defence equipment and if the world’s determination to resist Russian terror had been sufficient,” he said in a social media post on X.
“The Ukrainian determination is sufficient. There must be equally sufficient determination from our partners and, as a result, sufficient support,” added Zelenskiy.
