South Korea will allocate $2.3B in aid to Ukraine, Lithuania has sent armored personnel carriers and drones, and Estonia has found another million shells.

Seoul will provide Kyiv with a medium- and long-term $2.3B aid package starting this year and will also offer $12M to rehabilitate wounded Ukrainian soldiers through the NATO Trust Fund for Aid to Ukraine.

Meanwhile, Lithuania handed over M577 armored personnel carriers to the Armed Forces of Ukraine on April 5. In addition, Vilnus plans to purchase 3,000 Lithuanian FPV drones worth €2M and then transfer them to the Ukrainian military, said Prime Minister Ingrida Šimonyte. She hopes that these drones will arrive at the front this year.

Meanwhile, Belgium, which has provided Ukraine with €1B in aid since the start of the war, is considering continuing its support.

Estonia will purchase a million shells and missiles for €2-3 billion if the allies provide funds. In total, the initiatives of the EU, Britain, Estonia, and the Czech Republic will allow 2 to 2.5 million shells to be sent to Ukraine this year.
