The Australian government will provide Ukraine with an additional $100 million in aid for the purchase of military equipment.
This was reported by the Australian Ministry of Defense.
The funds will be allocated under the PURL initiative. After a $50 million contribution in December 2025, the country will transfer two more tranches of $50 million over the next 12 months.
This will bring Australiaʼs total support for Ukraine since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion to over $1.8 billion. Of this amount, over $1.6 billion will be military assistance.
Australia also remains a member of the "Coalition of the Willing", and military countries continue to train Ukrainian military personnel as part of the Kudu training mission.
- PURL is a mechanism created by the US and NATO that allows allies to purchase American weapons for Ukraine through joint contributions. As of the end of December, the partners had already contributed $4.18 billion.
