Minister of Defense of the Netherlands Ruben Brekelmans on Thursday announced the supply of three Patriot air defense missile systems to Ukraine.

"The Ukrainians are facing a harsh winter because... air raids continue. That's why we delivered three Patriot air defense systems to them," the minister wrote on the X social network, without specifying when these deliveries were made.

In October, Brekelmans reported that Amsterdam had delivered the first batch of F-16 fighters promised to Ukraine. In November, it became known that the Netherlands had transferred the remaining two F-16 fighters from a batch of 18 units to Romania, which Ukrainian pilots will use for training.
