The Ministry of Defense of Lithuania has handed over a new military aid package to Ukraine to improve its logistics and infantry capabilities.

The Ministry reported on this on its website.

In response to a request from Ukraine, Lithuania has transferred an additional military aid package to provide the Ukrainian Defense Forces with equipment.

First of all, counter drone systems were transferred to protect personnel from Russian UAVs.

Lithuania also transferred forklifts used by logistics units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine to load ammunition, spare parts, and other items.

Additionally, folding beds and other equipment needed by the military on the front line were added to this list.

According to the Lithuanian Ministry of Defense, since the beginning of 2024, the country has donated 155 mm ammunition, M577 command post vehicles, M113 armored personnel carriers, counter drone systems, equipment and warm clothing sets for the winter season, and ammunition for the Carl Gustaf rifles to the Ukrainian Defense Forces.

Additionally, RISE-1 remote detonation systems, generators, disassembled spare parts of the L-39ZA Albatros light attack aircraft, forklifts, trailers, folding beds, and more were transferred.

The Ministry of Defense of Lithuania noted that since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, Lithuania has transferred equipment worth €647 million to Ukraine.

Despite this insignificant amount compared to other countries, the country plans to increase the amount to more than €1 billion, thus demonstrating its unwavering support for Ukraine in the war against Russia.

Militarnyi previously reported that Lithuania will allocate €35 million to purchase radars and mine clearance equipment for Ukraine.

In addition, Lithuania plans to supply the Ukrainian Defense Forces with more than 5,000 domestically produced drones by the end of the fall.
