## Key points

- Zelensky wants Europe to accelerate Patriot missile deliveries.
- Russian strikes killed four in Dnipro and injured 22.
- Ukraine and Russia also reported casualties from overnight attacks.

## Summary

Volodymyr Zelensky has called on European allies to speed up deliveries of Patriot interceptor missiles after Russian strikes killed four people in Ukraine’s Dnipro region. He said the attacks also wounded 22 people there, including an 11-year-old girl, and caused damage across nine regions.

Zelensky said Russia launched around 1,600 guided bombs, 48 missiles and nearly 2,300 attack drones in the past week. Russia claimed it struck a vessel carrying Ukrainian military supplies and facilities in Kharkiv, but the claim could not be independently verified; images showed firefighters at a damaged shopping centre. Ukrainian drones killed two people and injured 13 in Russia’s Belgorod, while local authorities reported further casualties near Shebekino. A shortage of US-supplied Patriot missiles has prompted Britain and other European countries to work on alternative air defence arrangements.
