Finland will send three tanks to Ukraine

Finland has announced a $169 million aid package for Ukraine which will include three Leopard 2 tanks.

The Finnish Defense Ministry said the tanks are equipped with mine-clearing equipment and the assistance program includes training in their use and maintenance.

Earlier, Spain announced that it would send six Leopard 2A4 tanks to Ukraine.

The German-made tanks are part of a wave of tanks sent to Ukraine after Ukrainian authorities asked them to counter Russian forces more effectively.

Germany initially refused to allow deliveries for fear of an escalation of the conflict, but now Berlin is telling the allies they can send their tanks to Ukraine.
