London to supply Kyiv with additional weapons worth over $280M in 2025

The UK has unveiled a package of £225 million ($286 million) in new military aid to Ukraine for next year, including drones, boats and air defense systems,  reported from AFP.

The move came after the UK's Defence Secretary John Healey visited Kyiv on December 18, holding talks with his Ukrainian counterpart Rustem Umerov and vowing to step up British support to Ukraine in 2025.

Three years since Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered the invasion of Ukraine "the depths of his miscalculation are clearer than ever, as the brave people of Ukraine continue to defy all expectations with their unbreakable spirit," Healey said.

"But they cannot go it alone," Healey added, vowing the UK's support for Kyiv was "ironclad" and Britain would always stand "shoulder to shoulder to ensure Putin cannot win".
