Ukraine is facing increasing pressure on its air defenses due to heightened Russian attacks and a declining stockpile of interception missiles, especially as it needs around 300 missiles to withstand the winter. Moscow is accelerating the production of ballistic missiles and drones, while Kyiv is seeking to acquire more air defense systems and interceptor missiles, as the "Patriot PAC-3" system is the only one available to it for intercepting ballistic missiles, which is rare globally. At the same time, Kyiv is receiving support from France and Italy to strengthen its defensive capabilities, amid concerns that a shortage of ammunition leaves civilian areas and key infrastructure vulnerable to Russian attacks.
