Ukraine to receive six advanced radars from Lithuania
Lithuania will deliver six Amber-1800 radars to Ukraine, German Defense Ministry announced on May 17.
German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius commended
Lithuania's firm support for Ukraine in its struggle against Russian
aggression. He noted that Lithuania is exceptional in how much military aid it
provides to Ukraine, relative to the size of the Lithuanian economy.
“Lithuania achieves an unusually high level [of assistance to
Ukraine],” said Pistorius.
The minister added that Lithuania and Germany are
cooperating to help bolster Ukraine’s air defenses as Russian air strikes
become more frequent and devastating. The accompanying sale of six Amber-1800
radar systems is Lithuania's contribution to saving lives in Ukraine. The
radars are developed and manufactured by Lithuanian company LitakTak.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
