Russia fired 136 drones at Ukraine, Kyiv's air force, ahead of U.S. President Donald Trump's meeting with NATO head Mark Rutte, where the two are expected to announce a new weapons deal for their besieged partner.

Russia launched four missiles and 136 drones into Ukraine overnight into Monday morning, according to Ukraine's air force, after President Donald Trump said the U.S. would provide Kyiv with more Patriot surface-to-air systems to help defend against Russia's nightly bombardments.

The White House announced earlier this month that it would pause the shipment of certain weapons to Kiev, but changed its stance on Sunday by announcing an agreement where NATO will pay for the weapons sent to Ukraine.
