“Javelins in Kyiv! A new cargo of security aid – launchers and missiles – with a total weight of about 80 tons. We expect the arrival of the 4th from the big flock of birds soon. Thanks to our strategic partner!” Minister of Defense of Ukraine Oleksii Reznikov posted on Twitter.

The first and the second cargoes were delivered on January 22 and January 23, respectively, within the framework of a $200 million package approved by President Biden in December 2021.
