Ukraine and nine Western allies announced a new Anti-Ballistic Missile Coalition in Paris on Monday to counter escalating Russian ballistic missile strikes. The partners will back Ukraine's Project Freyja missile defense system as battlefield momentum shifts and shortages expose Europe to increased danger.

This integrated defense effort aims to fill critical gaps in European protection as the war enters its fifth year.

Russia-Ukraine War

The Russia-Ukraine War has intensified into a massive long-range energy and drone war, with Ukraine systematically striking oil refineries, depots, and shadow fleet tankers across 12 Russian regions, including deep targets like Omsk (2,700km away), triggering a nationwide fuel crisis that has forced export bans and rationing in over 90% of Russian regions.
