< Ukraine currently does not have systems to intercept the Russian ballistic missile "Oreshnik", but work continues on obtaining them and creating its own.
This was stated by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrsky in an interview with military correspondent Andrey Tsaplienko. He emphasized that the Oreshnik is a threat and currently only a few air defense systems can intercept it. Ukraine does not yet have such systems for shooting down this missile. “But we must do everything to ensure that they appear,” Syrsky said.
According to him, the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and industry are considering various ways to combat or reduce the effectiveness of these weapons. We are talking about creating “our own air defense system, which would be not just an air defense system, but also an anti-missile system.”

The President of the National Olympic Committee (NOC) Vadim Gutzeit, in a conversation with a correspondent of Lb.ua, suggested the reasons for Ilya Kovtun's decision to change his sports citizenship..
“I am, frankly speaking, upset because this is absolutely unacceptable to me. There are many athletes who also train abroad, live abroad, but do not think at all about changing their citizenship. When athletes change citizenship, this is not taken very well in life. And during a war, I think this is a very bad act. I do not want to say anything rude, what I feel inside. At such a time, only support from Ukraine is needed, and not fleeing from Ukraine,” Gutzeit said.
According to him, the NOC and the Ministry of Youth and Sports tried to refuse Kovtun and Gorbachev from changing citizenship, offering them the best conditions, but the athlete and coach did not change their minds.
