Slovakia has delivered the remaining nine of the 13 Soviet-era MiG-29 fighter jets that it promised to Ukraine.
Russia vowed to destroy all jets donated after Poland and Slovakia, backed by equipment and finance from the U.S. announced deliveries.
The UK will replenish stocks of any country that sends Russian or Soviet-era fighter jets to Ukraine, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said.
Poland is willing to send Ukraine fighter jets if the United States leads a broader coalition of countries to do the same, the country’s Prime Minister has said.
Poland has made its fleet of MIG-29 jets available “immediately and free of charge”, despite calling the move “fake news” just two days ago.
