The US plans to transfer dozens of missiles for the Patriot air defense systems from Israel to Ukraine. This week, US aircraft transported about 90 interceptor missiles from Israel to Poland, from which they will be sent to Ukraine. In April 2023, Israel decommissioned its Patriot systems as the country switched to domestic air defense sytems.
In addition, the Italian parliament finally supported the provision of military assistance to Ukraine through the end of 2025. Earlier, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni reported that Italy would increase military aid to Ukraine to €1.7B in 2025.
Croatia is preparing a new 12th package of military assistance for the Armed Forces of Ukraine, which will be approved on January 30.
The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine has launched licensed production of modern FPV drones through a state-owned enterprise. A private developer has granted the Ministry of Defense a license to produce the UAVs.
