Britain said on Monday it would provide a further 375 million US Dollars, or 3.9 billion AED, more in military aid to Ukraine, that’s on top of around 250 million US Dollars of assistance so far.
Britain has sent Ukraine more than 5,000 anti-tank missiles and five air defence systems as well as other munitions and explosives since Russia's “special operation” on Feb. 24, which has destroyed cities and left thousands of people dead or injured.
Russia says it’s to disarm the country and rid it of anti-Russian nationalism fomented by the West.
While Britain has provided significant military aid, it has so far accepted relatively few of the more than 5 million Ukrainians who have fled their country.
