Germany pledges more missiles and shells for Ukraine
Germany pledged additional air-defense missiles, drones and ammunition for Ukraine, including urgent Patriot PAC-2 rounds drawn from national stocks. Berlin also committed more air-to-air missiles, while Germany and Britain plan to procure tens of thousands of long-range artillery rounds for Ukrainian forces. The package responds to sustained Russian strikes and anticipated pressure on energy infrastructure during winter. Exact Patriot quantities and delivery timing were not disclosed, and replacing donated stocks will require continued production and responsible allied coordination among participating European governments and defense companies.
