The Australian government has decided to donate 14 hard-hulled combat boats worth $1 million each to Ukraine.
This aid package, totalling $14 million in US currency, is intended to "enhance Ukraine's maritime and coastal security and provide fast and highly manoeuvrable assets for its military".
The statement claims that the government of Anthony Albanese "remains committed to supporting Ukraine in its response to Russia's illegal invasion". In total, since the beginning of the Russian aggression, Australia has provided our country with $1.5 billion in assistance, of which $1.3 billion was military equipment.
