Sweden's Aid to Ukraine: Supplies Dwindling

Published: 2024-05-31

Sweden's latest and largest aid package to Ukraine reveals the depletion of its military stockpiles.

The package includes two advanced radar reconnaissance planes, armoured vehicles, and artillery shells, but no Gripen fighter jets, which Ukraine has been requesting.

The absence of Gripen jets is due to logistical challenges and the ongoing integration of F-16 jets into Ukraine's air force.

The dwindling supplies highlight the West's struggle to keep up with Russia's advances and Ukraine's increasing need for immediate military support.
