Spain will provide Ukraine with a batch of Leopard tanks and missiles for Patriot air defense systems as part of a new military aid package.
According to RBC-Ukraine, this was announced by Ukrainian Defense Minister Rustem Umerov on his Facebook page.
According to Umerov, on the evening of Wednesday, May 22, he had a telephone conversation with his Spanish counterpart, Margarita Robles.
In particular, he thanked for the new military aid package, which included:
- missiles for Patriot air defense systems;
- a batch of Leopard tanks;
- 155 mm artillery shells;
- anti-drone systems and other weapons.
“I emphasized that we need more air defense systems to be more effective in countering the enemy. This allows Ukrainian defenders to counteract the aircraft and guided bombs that Russians use to destroy our cities and villages,” Umerov wrote.
