️🇺🇦🇨🇦. Ukrainian Ministry of Defense:
Defense Minister Yevgeny Hamra spoke with Canada's Minister of National Defense David McGuinty about air defense, F-16 support and deep strike capabilities.
Hamra thanked Canada for its contribution of PAC-3 missiles for Patriot systems through the JUMPSTART mechanism, which strengthens Ukraine's defense against Russian ballistic missile strikes.
The ministers also discussed how to speed up the next delivery of 20 mm anti-aircraft ammunition. Hamra called it a critical resource, because F-16s destroy most aircraft-powered drones.
Thanks, Canada!
