Israel secretly provides Ukraine with Patriot air defense systems - aviation expert

Aviation expert ,Hennadiy Khazan, announced this on Espreso TV.

“Regarding Israel’s transfer of Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine, I’ll be brief. There is a very respected person — the Israeli ambassador to Ukraine. He said Israel did everything for the Patriots to arrive in Ukraine. I trust this person. I can say that most likely this transfer took place,” Khazan said.

The expert believes that those who have expressed skepticism about Israel’s transfer of Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine should speak publicly once photos of the systems are released.

"I was very surprised by something else. We have Ukrainians who love to comment on everything and have never learned to communicate in the official language in their entire lives in Ukraine. They started saying something about Israel, that nothing had been transferred. I want this person to speak publicly when journalists take photos of these systems. Fortunately, Israel's transfer of Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine did happen," he added.

• On June 10, Israeli Ambassador to Ukraine Michael Brodsky said that the country had previously transferred Patriot air defense systems to Ukraine.
• The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs told Ynet that the country has not transferred air defense systems to Ukraine.
