This resolution condemns Russia's aerial attacks on Ukraine, particularly its use of advanced ballistic missiles supplied by North Korea, which have killed hundreds of civilians and destroyed critical infrastructure since early 2025. The resolution documents specific attacks—including a Palm Sunday strike in Sumy that killed 35 civilians and an April attack on a Kryvyi Rih playground that killed 20 people, including 9 children—and emphasizes how Russia's missiles have destroyed over half of Ukraine's power generation capacity, affecting hospitals, schools, and civilians. The measure calls on the President to provide Ukraine with additional air defense systems from U.S. stockpiles, including PATRIOT systems, NASAMs, and radar-guided missiles, and to approve reexport of defense systems from allied nations. It also expresses support for continued U.S. security assistance to Ukraine including training, intelligence, and advisory support to strengthen Ukraine's negotiating position and defense capacity. This is a non-binding resolution expressing the Senate's position rather than establishing law or appropriating funds.
