The UK is to supply air defence missiles to Ukraine capable of shooting down Russian cruise missiles, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace has confirmed.
It comes alongside £10 million in funding for Nato’s Comprehensive Assistance Package for Ukraine, intended to provide winter clothes, shelters, generators, fuel trucks and ambulances for the Ukrainian army.
The General Assembly approved the resolution with 143 in favour and five against, but 35 nations abstained, including China, India, South Africa and Pakistan, despite a major US diplomatic effort.
