KYIV—Russian missiles, artillery, and drones hammered targets in eastern and southern Ukraine, the Ukrainian General Staff said, as global economic powers pledged to beef up Kyiv’s military capabilities with a focus on air defense.
The Group of Seven (G-7) promised to “meet Ukraine’s urgent requirements” after President Volodymyr Zelenskyy appealed for modern tanks, artillery, and long-range weapons to counter Russia’s invasion.
Zelenskiy also urged G7 leaders gathered at a virtual meeting to support his idea of convening a special Global Peace Summit dedicated to bringing peace to his country.
The summit would be focused on the implementation of Kyiv’s 10-point peace plan that insists on, among other things, Russia’s withdrawal of all its troops from Ukraine and no territorial concessions on Kyiv’s part…. Source
