Spain to send new military aid package to Ukraine
Ukraine will receive a new military aid package from Spain, including air defence systems, the Ukrainian foreign minister Dmytro Kuleba has said.

In a statement on Twitter, Mr Kuleba said he had assured Spain's foreign minister Jos Manuel Albares that Ukraine would "always remember that Spain stood with us during the most difficult time" following the new aid package.

It comes after the US said it would provide $275 million in additional military assistance to Ukraine, including arms, munitions and equipment.

Last week, US secretary of state Antony Blinken said: "We are also working to provide Ukraine with the air defence capabilities it needs with the two initial US -provided NASAMS ready for delivery to Ukraine next month and we are working with allies and partners to enable delivery of their own air defence systems to Ukraine."
