Germany will supply Ukraine with two Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems after an agreement with the United States. This was announced on August 1 by German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius.

"Germany will be able to transfer launchers to Ukraine, and then additional components of the Patriot system," the Reuters news agency quoted him as saying.

It is noted that the German side will supply weapons to Kiev in the near future. At the same time, additional system components will be transferred over the next few months. In addition, Berlin will receive new Patriot complexes from Washington as a priority.

On July 26, The Washington Post reported that Germany had already transferred three Patriot complexes to Ukraine and was negotiating new supplies.

On July 19, it was reported about the US decision to reorient the supply of Patriot air defense systems to the allies so that they reach Ukraine faster. It was noted that this step highlights the difficulties in supplying Kiev with American air defense systems, as well as other Western weapons, since defense production lines are having a hard time coping with the requests of the Ukrainian authorities.

All important news is on the Izvestia channel in the MAX messenger.
