Ukraine’s Zelenskyy says defenses are holding firm against Russia’s summer push
UKRAINE, JUL 24 – Ukraine has repelled Russian advances in its summer offensive with progress in the northeastern Sumy region, while seeking Western aid including 10 Patriot missile systems, President Zelenskyy said.
- On July 26, 2025, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that despite intensified shelling, Ukrainian troops continue to resist Russia's intensified offensive efforts along sections of the front line this summer.
- The conflict, ongoing since Russia's February 2022 invasion, has strained resources on both sides, with Russia having more manpower and equipment, and Ukraine seeking additional support from Western partners.
- Ukraine is collaborating with global allies to obtain 10 Patriot missile defense systems made in the United States, each valued at over $1 billion, with three units already pledged by Germany and Norway.
- Zelenskyy expressed confidence that Ukraine's parliament will pass a new bill restoring anti-corruption agencies' independence amid ongoing legitimate public protests, though risk remains that the vote scheduled for July 31 could fail and trigger larger demonstrations.
- Despite little hope for direct Russia-Ukraine talks, Kremlin envoys have discussed a potential leaders' summit, and Zelenskyy stressed that unity and societal voice remain critical to Ukraine's war effort and the possibility of ending the conflict.
