Defence Ministry declassifies Czech military aid to Ukraine worth 6.7 billion crowns

Since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Czechia has provided Kyiv with military aid worth CZK 6.75 billion, Defence Minister Jana Černochová told the Czech Press Agency on Wednesday. The aid includes 62 tanks, 131 infantry fighting vehicles, 26 chemical reconnaissance vehicles, 16 complete special air defence vehicles, 47 cars, 13 howitzers and 12 rocket launchers, and 4.2 million rounds of ammunition. All material donated from the Czech Army's warehouses has always been approved by the government in a classified mode for security reasons. However, the cabinet has now declassified the list at the defence minister’s suggestion.
