Ukraine highly appreciates Germany's contribution to strengthening the Ukrainian air defence system, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said.
"I thank Olaf Scholz for the decision to provide Ukraine with a battery of Patriot anti-aircraft missiles," Zelenskyy said on Twitter.
The president added that taking into account the IRIS-T air defence system previously transferred to Ukraine, as well as Gepard anti-aircraft tanks, Germany makes a decisive contribution to the interception of Russian missiles.
