Defence Minister Anita Anand today announced Canada would send another 200 armoured vehicles to Ukraine in support of the country’s defence against the Russian invasion.

Anand announced this latest round of military aid to Ukraine, worth $90 million, during a surprise visit to Kyiv on Jan. 18. It comes on the heels of the donation of the American-made surface-to-air missile system Anand announced on Jan. 10 at a cost of around $406 million.
