Denmark will increase its military support for Ukraine by 2.3 billion Danish Crowns ($336.65 million) this year.

That’s according to the Danish defense ministry, Ukrinform reports, citing Reuters.

The donation comes on top of the 5.4 billion the Nordic country had allocated to a fund set up for military donations to Ukraine.

Parliament also agreed to allocate for the fund an additional 23.5 billion crowns between 2025 and 2027.
