Mumbai: The Netherlands will provide 200 Stinger air defence rockets to Ukraine, the Dutch government said in a letter to Parliament on Saturday.
“Along with our allies, the Defence Ministry aims to deliver these goods as quickly as possible,” the letter read.
It also said it would move Dutch embassy staff from the western Ukrainian city of Lviv to Jaroslav across the Polish border due to deteriorating security.
Based on requests from Ukraine “the Netherlands will provide 200 Stinger air defence rockets,” the letter said.
The missiles are in addition to other equipment already promised by the Netherlands earlier this month, including rifles, ammunition, radar systems and mine-detecting robots.
