Denmark will give Ukraine a new aid package worth EUR 645 million, about USD 720 million, to buy attack drones, munitions and air defence equipment, Infobae reports. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky confirmed the decision after meeting Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Copenhagen.
The money will pay for uncrewed aerial vehicles, including ones made in Ukraine, interceptor drones built to bring down other drones, and munitions for the F-16 fighters Ukraine has received from its allies. Zelensky said the help comes as Russia steps up ballistic missile and drone attacks on Ukraine's energy, water and heating systems.
The two governments also reviewed their drone agreement, which funds weapons and joint production projects. Through it, Denmark has spent USD 100 million this year on Ukrainian drones and other military equipment.
