Quick Glance: US Sending New Patriot Missiles to Ukraine
- As part of a massive $6 billion additional aid package, the U.S. will provide Ukraine with additional Patriot missiles for its air defense systems, announced Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin on Friday.
- Discussing the need for Patriots, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy participated in the Ukraine Defense Contact Group meeting on Friday morning, where about 50 countries virtually gathered in a Pentagon-led session.
- Included in the new funding, the largest tranche of USAI aid sent so far, are the High Mobility Artillery Rocket System (HIMARS) as well as Switchblade and Puma drones, counter-drone systems, and artillery.
- Months of deadlock among bitterly divided members of Congress over the funding led to House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., having to form a bipartisan coalition to pass the bill.

Quick Glance: The Fall of Bakhmut Doesn't Mean Russia Has Changed the Tide of War — Pentagon Chief
- Its demise would not necessarily imply that Moscow's military efforts had regained momentum.
- "I think it's more of a symbolic value than it is strategic and operational value," Austin tells Reuters, adding that he cannot predict whether or not Russian forces will take Bakhmut.
- "The fall of Bakhmut won't necessarily mean that the Russians have changed the tide of this fight," Austin added.
- On March 4, British intelligence reported that Ukrainian forces defending Bakhmut are under increasing pressure (Ukr) from Russian forces, with intense fighting taking place in the city and its environs.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strike Damages Iranian Air Defense System Without Detection, Officials Say
- An Israeli airstrike on Iran on Friday damaged an air defense system, according to Western and Iranian officials, and appeared calculated to deliver a message that Israel could bypass Iran’s defensive systems undetected and paralyze them.
- The strike damaged a defensive battery near Natanz, a city in central Iran that is critical to the country’s nuclear weapons program, according to the officials.
- The relatively limited scope of Israel’s strike and the muted response from Iranian officials, however, seem to have eased tensions.
- It was confirmed that Israel had deployed aerial drones and at least one missile fired from a warplane, as stated by three Western and two Iranian officials.
