The Estonian Defense Ministry wrote this on Twitter.

According to the report, Estonia, in cooperation with Ireland, will donate a military hospital to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Ukraine will also receive:

  • medical equipment;
  • demining equipment;
  • anti-drone equipment.

The Estonian Defense Ministry emphasizes that it will continue to support Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression.

How else does Estonia help Ukraine?

Since the beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion, Estonia has been providing financial and military assistance to Ukraine and hosting refugees.

In January 2023, Estonia allocated a record package of heavy weapons, including howitzers, anti-tank weapons, and shells. The total amount of assistance is over EUR 113 million.

After the invading Russian forces blew up the Kakhovka hydroelectric power plant, Tallinn promptly provided Ukraine with assistance in eliminating the consequences of the man-made disaster. Equipment worth EUR 457,000 was sent.

On June 17, the Estonian government became the first in Europe to approve the principles of using Russian assets frozen in the country to support Ukraine.
