Lithuania has announced a new military aid package that includes electronic warfare systems, ammunition, and drones.
The Lithuanian Ministry of National Defence announced this.
A shipment of weapons arrived in Ukraine on July 11. It includes ammunition for 5.56×45 mm rifles, anti-drone rifles, and military auxiliary equipment, including folding beds.
The ministry said that Lithuania had provided Ukraine with military assistance worth about €641 million. This year, assistance worth about €115 million has already been provided.
Throughout this time, the country donated 155 mm ammunition, M577 command post carriers, M113 armored personnel carriers, counter-drone systems, grenade launchers, and ammunition for infantry weapons, as well as other equipment and ammunition.
In particular, last month, a new batch of tracked armored vehicles arrived in the country to strengthen the Ukrainian Defense Forces’ demining capabilities.
At the end of June, Ukraine signed a security agreement with Lithuania, according to which Lithuania will seek to provide Ukraine with annual security and defense support worth 0.25% of GDP.
Lithuania will provide Ukraine with security assistance and modern military equipment in the land, air, maritime, space, and cyber-electromagnetic spheres.
Some of the Agreement’s provisions set out joint counteraction to hybrid threats and nuclear risks, strengthen the protection of critical infrastructure and promote cooperation in the field of intelligence.
In addition, Lithuania will potentially resume a military training mission in Ukraine. Also, it was reported in late June that Lithuania would help reform Ukrainian military education.
