President Volodymyr Zelenskyy received a briefing from Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi on the front-line situation and announced increased domestic long-range capabilities and allied support.

According to Zelenskyy, Ukraine is set to receive air defense systems from several countries in December. Additional measures to strengthen the air shield are expected in January. Defense Minister Rustem Umerov provided updates on new agreements and the implementation of existing commitments.

"Significant reinforcements are needed in the Donetsk directions... We are working on our own – boosting our production, our Ukrainian defense industry. We will have more long-range capabilities of our own," the president said.

He also expressed gratitude to the United States for a new $725 million weapons package, noting that delivery timelines are accelerating as agreed.
