A Russian drone attack on western Ukraine likely targeted a nuclear power plant, President Volodymyr Zelensky says.
Iranian-designed Shahed drones struck the area around the power plant in the western Khmelnytsky region early on Wednesday, he said.
Mr Zelensky said the attack in the Khmelnytsky region showed that Ukraine's air defences needed further support from international partners.
He added that Russian drones and missiles contained components originating from Western companies and countries and the Khmelnytsky strike showed "how dangerous it can be when Russia can bypass international sanctions".
The new aid will include missile defence systems with the aim of creating a "protective shield" around Ukrainian infrastructure, given Russian plans "to use the cold and energy shortages as weapons against the civilian population", he said.
Separately, Ukrainian intelligence claimed on Thursday that a car carrying four members of Russia's FSB security service was blown up in Berdyansk, in the Zaporizhzhia region.
