Editors focused on Ukraine's desperate shortage of anti-ballistic missile interceptors and the West's failure to respond. The day began with reports of a massive drone attack on Russia's Yaroslavl oil refinery, but attention quickly shifted to the aftermath of the previous day's ballistic massacre in Kyiv, which killed 17. Zelensky urged allies to release interceptors, while Foreign Minister Sybiha stated Ukraine was 'fighting for every missile.' By afternoon, UNIAN and NYT reported that Western allies had ignored Kyiv's urgent request for anti-aircraft missiles. Concurrently, SBU drones struck two Russian patrol ships in Kerch, and Zelensky ordered a special sanctions operation against Russia's military-industrial complex. The EU introduced new rules for Ukrainian men of conscription age, and an Antonov aircraft attacked in Leipzig was revealed to be carrying ammunition.
