British Defense Secretary John Healey also confirmed the government's commitment to increase and accelerate military support to Ukraine.
Today, he also assured that hundreds of additional air defense missiles, tens of thousands of additional artillery ammunition and armored vehicles will be delivered to Ukraine by the end of the year.
Russia's indiscriminate attacks on Ukraine's population and infrastructure, often far behind the front lines, underscore the urgent need to continue to strengthen our support for Ukraine.
