Background:
Earlier, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy again called on Ukraine's partners to increase assistance with air defence equipment, including Patriot systems.
Strengthening Ukraine's air defence was one of the key topics of conversations that Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba had during his trip to the NATO ministerial meeting in Brussels last week.
As the NATO secretary general said on Thursday, some NATO allies have already pledged to look for air defence systems for Ukraine.
The US Secretary of State took immediate action after Ukraine's request for additional Patriots.
