The effectiveness of Ukrainian air defense systems has decreased from 90% to 30% – The Times

Ukrainian air defense systems have become significantly less effective at intercepting Russian missiles. This was reported by the British newspaper The Times.

 

“Ukraine’s air defense systems are struggling to cope with the Russian military’s attacks,” according to The Times.

According to the publication, Ukraine’s air defense success rate has dropped from 90% to 30%, due to the increased intensity of Russian strikes. The Ukrainian forces are unable to effectively defend against these attacks due to a shortage of missiles.

Earlier, German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius announced that the EU was willing to finance the supply of Patriot missile systems to Ukraine, but faced a shortage of available systems.
