The latest attacks underscore why continued Western military aid to Ukraine is vital. Without it, Ukraine would struggle to defend its cities or strike back at Russian logistics. Supporters argue that arming Ukraine is the most effective way to deter further Russian aggression and protect civilians. The missile attack that killed ten people shows the cost of Russian advances. By supplying advanced air defense systems and long-range weapons, allies help Ukraine save lives and keep the war from spreading deeper into Europe. Critics of aid often ignore that Ukraine is fighting for its sovereignty. Providing weapons is not escalation; it is self-defense. The goal is a strong Ukrainian position that could force Russia to negotiate seriously. For now, the war rages on, but backing Ukraine with arms and intelligence remains the best path to a just peace.
