Canada is sending four combat-ready battle tanks to Ukraine “in the coming weeks,” Defence Minister Anita Anand announced Thursday.
As CTV News first reported, in addition to the initial four Leopard 2 tanks, Canada is considering sending more tanks at a later date.
Anand, announcing this latest shipment of military aid to Ukraine, said that Canada will also be deploying “a number” of Canadian Armed Forces members to train Ukrainian soldiers with the skills they will need to operate this equipment.
