Britain's Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said the first Challenger 2 battle tanks will arrive in Ukraine "next month", CNN has reported.
Speaking alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Dorset, England, on Wednesday, Sunak said that "the Challenger tanks are going to be on the battlefield", adding that "Ukrainian soldiers are being trained on them as fast as we can".
Britain has pledged to send 14 Challenger 2 tanks to Ukraine. In late January, British Defence Procurement Minister Alex Chalk said the UK was aiming to complete those deliveries by the end of March.
