> Zelensky said Ukraine received an average of 12 Patriot interceptors per month from the U.S. in 2026, while needing to intercept about 150 Russian ballistic missiles monthly. Some European countries have offered missiles from their stockpiles, but transfers require Washington’s approval, and documents await Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s signature.
