Leopard 2 tanks are among a new batch of military and humanitarian equipment en route from Spain to Ukraine, the Spanish defense ministry said Monday, APA reports citing CNN.
In a statement, the ministry said the shipment had departed from the port of Santander and was expected to be delivered to Ukraine's military in early August.
The shipment includes 4 Leopard 2A4 tanks, 10 M-113 armored personnel carriers, 10 cargo trucks, 1 armored multi-purpose vehicle, and 5 ambulances, including 2 that are armored.
Spain has already sent six Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine, as part of a pledge to send a total of 10 such vehicles. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said in July that Madrid will provide four more Leopard 2 tanks to Kyiv. A portable field hospital with surgical capacity arrived in Ukraine on Sunday, according to Spain's defense ministry.
