Germany will supply Ukraine with 1,000 anti-tank weapons and 500 Stinger surface-to-air missiles from Bundeswehr stocks so it can defend itself against Russia, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said on Saturday. FRANCE 24's International Affairs Editor Armen Georgian tells us more.
Ukrainian armed forces test-fire NLAWs, (Next generation Light Anti-tank Weapon) delivered by the British amid tensions with Russia. The missiles are fired as part of military exercises on snow covered planes and the commander of the training department says that once training is complete "operators will receive these weapons and will be deployed to the task area". Meanwhile, President Vladimir Putin maintains French that the West is ignoring Moscow's security concerns over Ukraine.
In a narrow backyard at the outskirts of Lviv, Western Ukraine, 36-year-old Taras and his friends are making use of every piece of scrap metal they can lay their hands on for a higher purpose: to build homemade anti-tank obstacles which might eventually stop a Russian military advance. "We started doing this when the war started, literally on the first day", Taras explains.
Russia has decided to lift a self-imposed ban on supplying advanced S-300 anti-aircraft missiles to Iran.
