US President Donald Trump announced the delivery of Patriot air defence missiles to Ukraine, citing frustration over Vladimir Putin’s continued attacks despite peace talks. Speaking at Joint Base Andrews, Trump said Ukraine “desperately needs” the defence systems and hinted at further military aid, including long-range offensive weapons. Trump criticised Putin for “beautiful talk” while escalating night bombings. A bipartisan US Senate bill proposes severe sanctions on Russia and allies aiding its war, giving Trump new powers. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy welcomed the support. Trump warned further sanctions could follow after a July 3 phone call where Putin signalled plans to intensify attacks. (PC: India Today)
