The British defense chief is expected to urge Ukraine’s Western partners at the meeting to launch a “50-day drive” to get Kyiv the weapons it needs to fight Russia’s bigger army.

The major aerial attack in the capital killed two people and wounded 15, including a 12-year-old, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said.

Russia unleashed one of its largest aerial assaults on Ukraine in recent months, hours before Britain and Germany chaired a meeting Monday to discuss President Trump’s plans for NATO allies to provide Ukraine with weapons.
