Episode Details

Kyiv endured another brutal missile barrage overnight — the third in under a week — as Russia escalates with high-speed ballistic strikes that Ukraine’s defenses, critically short on U.S.-made interceptors, struggle to stop. With the NATO summit underway and Zelenskiy set to meet Trump, the demand for these vital interceptors is front and center — as Trump hints at a swift resolution, Russia shows no sign of retreat. The human toll is stark: one woman killed, two injured in Kyiv, fires erupting in storage and buildings; Kharkiv also suffered, with homes, a church damaged, and two dead in a residential strike. Since the start of the month, Ukraine’s defenses have intercepted just four of 54 ballistic missiles — a grim statistic underscoring the urgent need for advanced air defense systems as diplomacy unfolds amid relentless aerial attacks.
