Latvia will supply Ukraine with armored vehicles purchased from Britain, while the Netherlands reneges on the promised Patriot system.

Latvia will hand over CVR (T) combat reconnaissance tracked armored vehicles purchased from Britain to Ukraine and Lithuania will send M113 armored vehicles, as well as SUVs and spare parts for them. This support will strengthen the Ukrainian army’s demining capabilities, noted the Lithuanian Ministry of Defense.

At the same time, the Ministry of Defense of the Netherlands reported that they would not transfer the Patriot air defense system to Ukraine as promised at the end of May. At the time, the Netherlands’ Ministry of Defense assured Ukraine that the country has the system’s “main components,” and the rest were to be provided by another ally. It was planned to transfer the radar and at least three launchers. However, the Ministry of Defense has reported that “the other party has not fulfilled the previously made commitment.”

The Minister of Defense of Denmark said that Ukraine will receive the second batch of Danish F-16 aircraft by the end of the year. Denmark has officially pledged to supply Kyiv with 19 fighter jets.
