Zelensky announced this on Telegram, according to Ukrinform.

"We are working as hard as possible with all partners who can assist with the supply of interceptor missiles to protect against such insane Russian strikes targeting life, people, and civilian facilities. Today, I spoke with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte about the overall situation," he said.

According to Zelensky, the NATO chief is well informed about the threats Ukraine faces.

The two also coordinated efforts regarding countries that have the necessary missiles and the capacity to help.

"It is important to cut through all red tape and make the necessary political decisions. Literally every day, people's lives here in Ukraine depend on the resolve of our partners in Europe and the United States," Zelensky said.

He thanked Ukraine's partners for their willingness to explore every possible option and work with Kyiv to secure the urgently needed deliveries.

Zelensky earlier stressed that the immediate priorities are partners' decisions to provide Ukraine with anti-ballistic interceptor missiles and to impose additional sanctions on the Russian Federation.
