US President Biden has promised with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelenskyy to provide the country with advanced air systems after Russia initiated missiles attack on various cities of Ukraine.
Biden stated this in a phone call with Zelenskyy ahead of an emergency meeting of the G7 to discuss support for Ukraine and how to hold Russia “accountable” for the attacks, which killed at least 14 people.

According to the White House, Biden also told Zelenskyy the US and its allies would continue imposing costs on Russia, and providing Ukraine with security, economic, and humanitarian assistance.
Russia’s defence ministry said it had targeted “military command and communication facilities and energy infrastructure” in Monday’s attacks, but Ukraine accused Moscow of indiscriminately hitting civilian areas.
