Ukraine urgently needs help: Zelensky has recognized a deficit of missiles for air defense

The adviser to the chairman of the OP Mikhail Podolyak said that in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation a new tactic - the enemy attacks the power plant at a time of a dozen rockets. He stressed that the air defense system is "overloaded". On April 11, Bild analyst Julian Ryopke suggested that missiles for Patrioot and Iris-T have ended in Ukraine. This information for The Guardian was commented on April 13 by the adviser to the Presidential Office Mikhail Podolyak.

Podolyak explained that Russia has changed the tactics of firing of energy. Now the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation attack "up to 10-12 rockets at the same time". "The system is overloaded. We need to see if we can support the system work, whether we need additional air defense systems, especially against ultrasonic ballistic missiles, and whether we can restore destroyed objects," he explained.

The adviser said that Ukraine is urgently seeking assistance from partners to better withstand threat. He assured that Patriot and Iris-T missiles were not over, but they are critical. "They are exactly in the shortage," Podolyak emphasized. He also complained about the lack of condemnation of massive shelling of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation by the event. "The Russians have completely destroyed one of Europe's largest TPPs.

But we do not see any resolutions of the Security Council in the UN or any other such statements," the adviser said. Earlier, information on missiles for Patriot and Iris-T was commented in the air forces. On April 12, a spokesman for the command Ilya Yevlash urged Ukrainians not to panic and stressed that the air defense forces show "quite good result".
