Report in Ukraine: Russia plans massive missile attack - possibly tonight

Amid Trump's threats against Iran, Ukraine is bracing for a massive Russian missile attack that could occur tonight. Zelensky assessed the likelihood as high, based on intelligence sources. Yesterday he met with Trump at the White House and requested commitments to strengthen air defense, including a license to produce Patriot missiles in Ukraine.

Alongside Trump's threats to strike Iran tonight, Ukraine is preparing for a possible attack from Russia. According to reports that have intensified in the past day, Moscow has prepared a large-scale and powerful missile attack against Ukraine, which according to assessments may occur as early as tonight. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky assessed that the attack is expected to happen even tonight and noted: "We know from intelligence sources and our partners that the Russians prepared for a massive attack several days ago, and tonight there is a high probability that the attack will be carried out." Zelensky added that the safety of civilians depends on the willingness of allied nations to provide interceptors. Against this backdrop, Zelensky arrived at the White House yesterday for a meeting with President Donald Trump, aiming to secure commitments to strengthen Kyiv's missile defense systems. During the talks, Zelensky requested a license to produce Patriot missiles in Ukraine. He further claimed that Iran is a full partner in Russian aggression against Ukraine, a claim that also led to the Ukrainian attack on an Iranian cargo ship in the Caspian Sea.
