Zelensky's plea for Western backing amid Middle East focus

Ukrainian President Zelensky seeks Western support as attention shifts to the Middle East, urging NATO leaders to go to Israel and support the people amid the Hamas attack. Zelensky's visit to Brussels coincided with a meeting of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group, highlighting the urgency for Kyiv to maintain military support. As international fatigue sets in and the world's focus shifts, Ukraine faces a critical moment in its ongoing conflict with Russia. Concerns arise over potential slowdown of American aid to Ukraine as the United States' attention turns to Israel. Zelensky equates Russia's war crimes in Ukraine with the atrocities committed by Hamas, emphasizing the need for continuous support from Western nations. US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin announces another $200 million military aid package for Ukraine, but resources may dwindle as the conflict in Israel demands more attention and resources.
