Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky urged for significant reinforcements along the 1,000-kilometer frontline in eastern Ukraine as Russian forces continue to make gains. With Russia claiming control over new villages in the Donetsk and Zaporizhia regions, Zelensky emphasized the urgent need for timely military support from Western allies. He highlighted the importance of enhancing Ukraine’s long-range capabilities, partly through domestic arms production, especially as the U.S. announces a new military aid package worth $725 million amidst concerns over future support under newly elected President Donald Trump.
