The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, what (a) arms and (b) munitions shipments will be offered to Ukraine this winter.

Answered by Luke Pollard

The UK is committed to providing the capabilities Ukraine requires over the winter.

On 7 July 2024, the Defence Secretary announced a new package of support for Ukraine including more ammunition and missiles. This follows the announcement in April that the UK will send our largest-ever package of military equipment which will include more than 1,600 strike and air defence missiles and nearly four million rounds of small arms ammunition to protect Ukraine's citizens, front line, and critical national infrastructure.

The total package of equipment is not released publicly due to operational security.
