"Greece and Spain are holding stocks of Patriot interceptor missiles that are nearing their expiry dates and could bolster Ukraine’s air defenses.

Spain and Greece have some of the largest stocks of interceptor missiles in Europe, which Ukraine urgently needs to defend against Russian attacks ahead of winter. President Volodymyr Zelensky has said that Ukraine needs between 300 and 360 such missiles to repel Russian attacks over the winter.
