New weapons supplies to expand destruction range of Russian military targets – military expert Riabykh

He said this on Espreso TV. 

“The parade of announcements of new batches of weapons for Ukraine continues. Amid a record package worth EUR 2.7 billion from Germany and new batches of armored personnel carriers, wheeled tanks and other equipment from France, the news from the UK is interesting,” noted Riabykh.

According to the military expert, the new batches of weapons should strengthen the Ukrainian Armed Forces' strike capabilities.

“The new weapons will expand the range of destruction of enemy military targets and disrupt enemy logistics as part of the tasks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces' spring and summer offensive campaign. The UK, following Germany and France, has announced that attention will be paid to providing air defense for Ukraine,” Riabykh said.
