WorldZelensky accuses U.S. of deliberately delaying Patriot missile deliveries
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky accused the United States of intentionally holding up interceptor missiles already paid for by NATO countries, Axios reported. He said Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth withheld approval for Patriot interceptors and AIM-9X missiles for NASAMS, leaving Kyiv with almost no U.S. missiles. Zelensky also said Ukraine missed U.S. warnings about Russian ballistic missile attacks three times in the past week, while Starlink and Starshield were partly restricted.
