Defence Minister Richard Marles has unveiled another $100 million in Australian funding and supplies for Ukraine, as Kyiv pleads for greater international support in its resistance against Russian forces, APA reports citing ABC News.
$50 million will fund short-range air defence systems, while $30 million is being spent on drones for the Ukrainian military and another $15 million on equipment including helmets, inflatable boats, boots, fire masks and electricity generators.
Mr Marles made the announcement during a quick visit to Ukraine, where he met with the country's Prime Minister Denys Shmyal and Deputy Defence Minister Ivan Havryliuk.
