Antony Blinken Confirms F-16s for Ukraine at NATO Summit

Russia Intensifies Attacks Amidst NATO Talks

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced at the NATO Summit that the first F-16 fighter jets will be provided to Ukraine. This comes amidst intensified Russian attacks following surprise incursions across the border on Friday.

The F-16s are part of a broader effort to support Ukraine's southern axis, where Russia seeks to defend the occupied regions of Kherson and Zaporizhzhia against Ukrainian counteroffensives.
