UK to provide Ukraine with new batch of equipment, shells for Challenger tanks

As part of a new package of military assistance to Kyiv, London will send regular batches of weapons and ammunition to Ukraine, reads a statement of the British Prime Minister's Office, reported from TASS.

Thus, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will receive more than 70 combat and auxiliary vehicles, including combat tracked reconnaissance vehicles. It is indicated that the vehicles of the British army will be transferred to Kyiv for the transport of ammunition and equipment, the evacuation of wounded soldiers and the restoration of damaged funds. This is critical for the Ukrainian counter-offensive.

Kyiv will also be additionally provided with thousands of additional shells for the British Challenger 2 tanks already in Ukraine. In addition, 50 million pounds ($65 million) will be allocated to repair previously delivered damaged British military equipment.
