Latvia has prepared the largest batch of drones from local manufacturers to be sent to Ukraine.
This was reported by Latvian Defence Minister Andris Spruds on the X network, the Gaze informed.
According to him, Latvia is preparing to transfer a batch of 1400 drones to Ukraine.
‘The largest batch from Latvian manufacturers – 1400 drones – is ready to be shipped to Ukraine. This completes the Ministry of Defence’s purchase of more than 2,700 drones from the Latvian industry for Ukraine,’ Spruds said.
He added that in total, Latvia has provided Ukraine with 3,000 combat drones of various types and characteristics as part of the Drone Coalition.
‘Together with Latvian companies, we will continue to provide support until Ukraine’s victory,’ the Latvian defence minister said.
As The Gaze previously reported, last week Spruds announced the transfer of about 500 Latvian-made drones to Ukraine.
Before that, it became known that Latvia and Germany had agreed to jointly purchase drones to support Ukraine.
Earlier, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba said that Latvia would work with Ukraine to increase the production of drones as part of a ‘drone coalition’.
