Russia-Ukraine War Latest News: Zelenskyy working ‘urgently’ to improve defence of Kyiv
Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his government are urgently working to “rectify the situation” in Kyiv.
The Ukrainian capital has been a repeated target of Russia in recent months, with ballistic missiles and jet-powered drones consistently finding their targets, killing dozens.

This comes during a shortage of air defence supplies and reported threats from the US to halt intelligence sharing.
Today this was put into focus once more, when ballistic missiles hit the city, with sirens only sounding after the impact. Zelenskyy said they had received no early warning from allies about the attack.
Zelenskyy said that ahead of what is feared to be a tough winter for Ukraine, they were preparing “resilience plans” for cities and regions across the country.
The Ukrainian leader admitted: “As of mid-October, virtually across the entire country – even in border and frontline regions – the implementation of resilience plans is further advanced than in Kyiv. And Kyiv residents certainly feel it – when even isolated hits by ‘shaheds’ cause electricity and water outages across large parts of the capital.”
