Great Britain will provide the Ukrainian Armed Forces with cold-weather sleeping kits and heated tents.

The British Defense Minister Ben Wallace announced this in London, Ukrinform reports.

"Given the fast approach of winter, this equipment will allow the Armed Forces of Ukraine to operate effectively over the next few months. Together with the training program and the provision of lethal aid, this demonstrates our commitment to ensuring that the average Ukrainian soldier is well trained and well equipped, has the best chance to fight and determines his own future,” Wallace noted.
