The Australian government has announced that it will gift 20 Bushmaster military vehicles to Ukraine, with the first three leaving Australia on April 8.
“We are responding to President Zelensky’s request for additional support. On top of military assistance and humanitarian aid Australia is already providing, we will be sending Bushmasters to help Ukrainians defend their nation. The first three are leaving today,” Australian Defence Minister Peter Dutton said on Twitter on April 8.
