U.K. Pledges ‘Hundreds’ of Long Range Air Defense Missiles to Ukraine
The United Kingdom will send “hundreds” of both air defense missiles and long-range attack drones to Ukraine as Kyiv bolsters its military aid in preparation for a long-expected counteroffensive.
The U.K. will furnish Ukraine with air defense missiles and unmanned aerial systems, including military drones with a range of more than 200 kilometers, or 125 miles, London said on Monday.
This coincided with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arriving in the U.K. after a flying visit to several European countries, meeting British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak at the U.K. leader’s country estate, Chequers.
During his brief European tour, several of Ukraine’s Western allies, including France and Germany, promised Ukraine fresh military aid packages ahead of Kyiv’s planned counteroffensive.
