Portuguese Defense Minister Elena Carreras said that Kyiv received 14 MS-113 armored personnel carriers, as well as equipment, ammunition and weapons provided by the armed forces of Portugal. “So far, we have transported 315 tons of military equipment, including personal protective equipment, ammunition and weapons, as well as medical and medical supplies, vehicles and parades,” Carreras was quoted as saying by Diario de Notícias.

US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin announced that the United States will send four additional HIMARS systems as part of the next aid package to Ukraine. Last month, US President Joe Biden announced a new military aid package for Ukraine, including HIMARS light mobile rocket launchers. “With additional funding for Ukraine, which Congress has overwhelmingly approved with bipartisan support, the United States can continue to supply Ukraine with more weapons,” he said.
