Zelensky gives warning as Russia advances on Ukraine's front line

President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday (April 29) that vital U.S. weapons were starting to arrive in Ukraine in small amounts and that the process needed to move faster.

Zelenskiy told a joint press conference in Kyiv alongside visiting NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg that the situation on the battlefield directly depended on the speed of ammunition supplies to Ukraine.

The Ukrainian leader also singled out the need for supplies of sophisticated Patriot air defence launch systems that Kyiv wants to obtain from its allies to counter Russia's long-range missile and drone strikes.

He said Kyiv had made some progress in obtaining supplies of missiles for the Patriot system, but that it was still working on the question of obtaining new launchers that fire the missiles.
