Liz Truss will join a virtual gathering of G7 leaders and Volodymyr Zelensky in crisis talks today, where she is set to urge leaders to remain steadfast in their support of Ukraine in the wake of Russia’s malicious revenge attacks.
Ukraine has vowed to strengthen its armed forces after Russia launched its biggest aerial attacks on cities since the start of the war, killing at least 14 people and injuring dozens.
Russian missiles tore through tourist sites, buildings, parks and intersections in a brutal retaliation assault on Monday, forcing thousands to flee to bomb shelters.
Explosions blasted through Kyiv, Lviv, Ternopil and Zhytomyr in western Ukraine, Dnipro and Kremenchuk in the centre, Zaporizhzhia in the south and Kharkiv in the east, Ukrainian officials said.
“We will do everything to strengthen our armed forces,” Mr Zelensky said in his Monday night video address.
“We will make the battlefield more painful for the enemy.”
Of the 84 Russian missiles launched against Ukraine, 43 were shot down, Mr Zelensky said, adding 13 out of 24 Russian drones were also intercepted.

G7 leaders to meet in wake of Putin’s Kyiv bombardment
Today’s G7 meeting will be the first with all leaders since Ukraine’s counter-offensive started to take hold in Ukraine.
Liz Truss is set to urge fellow leaders to stay the course in the meeting, pointing out that Ukraine’s military advances have been made possible thanks to international support.
She will also call for an urgent meeting of NATO leaders, ensuring allies remain united and resolute in their opposition to Putin’s aggression.
“The overwhelming international support for Ukraine’s struggle stands in stark opposition to the isolation of Russia on the international stage,” she is expected to say.
“Their bravery in the face of the most brutal acts of violence has earned the people of Ukraine global admiration.
“Nobody wants peace more than Ukraine. And for our part, we must not waver one iota in our resolve to help them win it.”
Zelensky: We’re counting on Britain to help protect our skies
Ukraine on Monday pleaded with Britain and the West to send air defence systems to Kyiv after Russia warned of more missile strikes following a barrage of deadly attacks on civilians.
Volodymyr Zelensky said after a call with Liz Truss: “We count on Britain’s leadership in consolidating international political and defence support for Ukraine, in particular regarding the protection of our skies.”
He also requested more missile defence weapons when he spoke to France’s Emmanuel Macron, Germany’s Olaf Scholz and Nato’s Jens Stoltenberg.

Russian people turning on Vladimir Putin and his war, UK spy chief says
The Russian people are losing faith in Vladimir Putin’s “war of choice”, the head of GCHQ has said.
It is becoming clear to the Russian people quite how badly Putin has “misjudged the situation,” according to Sir Jeremy Fleming.
The Director of GCHQ, Britain’s cyber security agency, will use a speech in London on Tuesday to highlight the ongoing threats from Russia and China.
He will say Russian forces are now in a “desperate situation” as they seek to prosecute the disastrous war in Ukraine.
