Britain has pledged to provide 10,000 drones to support Ukraine in its conflict with Russia, as announced by the Defense Secretary during a visit to Kyiv. This commitment includes an investment of 125 million pounds in addition to the 200 million pounds previously allocated for drones. The arsenal will consist of various types of drones, including 1,000 one-way attack drones and models designed for targeting ships.
The Defense Secretary highlighted the effectiveness of Ukraine's Armed Forces in utilizing weapons donated by the U.K., noting that nearly 30% of Russia's Black Sea Fleet has been incapacitated as a result. Recent reports indicate that Ukrainian sea drones successfully sank another Russian warship in the Black Sea, further weakening Moscow's naval capabilities.
