Last week, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky declared his intention to double Ukraine's air defense capacity over the summer and stated that his country required at least seven additional Patriot systems to safeguard itself. NATO members recently announced that five additional Patriot systems had been delivered to Ukraine, along with other strategic air defense systems.

"We are grateful to Belgium and Norway for committing to provide further aircraft, and to the other members of the Air Force Capability Coalition for their support," the statement reads.

Additional aid announcements from world leaders are expected to be made during the 75th NATO summit this week, per Reuters.
