US has resumed military supplies to Ukraine, Zelensky says11 hours ago Share Save Mallory Moench BBC News Reporting from London Paul Adams Diplomatic Correspondent Reporting from Ukraine Share SaveGetty ImagesThe US has resumed military supplies to Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelensky has said, after Washington halted some shipments of critical arms last week. In the wake of these attacks, Zelensky requested 10 Patriot systems. Patriot batteries detect and intercept oncoming missiles and are regarded as one of the world's best air defence systems. The latest deal announced by Trump will see Nato buy Patriot systems from the US and then distribute them to Ukraine. This helps explain why Western countries that operate Patriot systems have been reluctant to part with them.
