London is considering supplying anti-aircraft missiles to Ukraine

Britain is considering Thales supplying anti-aircraft missiles to Ukraine to help it defend itself against the Russian invasion, Defense Secretary Ben Wallace said, adding that the technology falls within the definition of defense weapons.

“It’s vital … Ukraine to maintain its ability to suppress Russian air strikes,” Wallace told the House of Commons.

“In response to Ukraine’s demands, the government has decided to investigate the supply of high-speed STARSstreak portable anti-aircraft missiles. We believe that this system will remain within the definition of defensive weapons, but will allow Ukrainian forces to better defend their air space “, he added.
