Germany's military assistance to Ukraine

In February, General Carsten Breuer, the Inspector General of the German Armed Forces, promised Ukrainian Armed Forces Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi short-term support for Ukraine of over 100 million euros.

A day later, the German government updated the list of military aid delivered to Ukraine. Berlin handed over dozens of new drones to Kyiv.

And recently, Germany announced a new military aid package for Ukraine. It is worth 500 million euros.
