Britain will send Ukraine 150,000 more drones to defend itself after dozens managed to cause carnage in Moscow.
The deal worth £750million is funded by the UK’s £2.26 billion Extraordinary Revenue Acceleration (ERA) loan to Ukraine funded by siezed Russian assets.
The package, announced by new Defence Secretary Dan Jarvis, will also deliver more than 350 air defence missiles and radar systems to defend Ukraine from Vladimir Putin’s ‘barbaric attacks’ by the end of the year.
Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves said the funding is helping deliver the ‘vital military equipment Ukraine needs as it defends itself against Russia’s unprovoked war.’
She said: ‘Our support for Ukraine is steadfast. I am proud that we are providing vital support, and we will continue to do all we can to keep pressure on Russia.’
