Poland to Hand over Thousands of Machine Guns and Millions of Rounds to Ukraine

Poland will send thousands of rifles and millions of rounds to Ukraine.

As Mariusz Kamiński, the Minister of Internal Affairs of Poland, announced on Twitter, following a meeting with his Ukrainian counterpart, Ihor Klymenko, Poland will continue backing Ukraine and begin supplying weapons to the Ukrainian Ministry of Internal Affairs' combat units.

Od początku wojny wspieramy Ukrainę i będziemy to robić dalej. Rozpoczynamy dostawę broni dla walczących formacji ukraińskiego MSW. To tysiące karabinów maszynowych i miliony sztuk amunicji, które pozwolą efektywnie walczyć obrońcom wolności Ukrainy i Europy. pic.twitter.com/IEAfrjsH7g

"These are thousands of machine guns and millions of rounds that will enable defenders of Ukraine's and Europe's freedom to fight effectively," Kamiński stated.

Commenting to Polsat, he added that the situation on the front line is very tense as a counteroffensive is ongoing. These battles could have a significant scale. The Polish minister also promised medical assistance to wounded Ukrainian soldiers in Poland.

"We have a sanitary train at our disposal to transport wounded troops from Lviv. We will also build and support field hospitals," pointed out Kamiński.

Previously, the German federal government was preparing long-term support for Ukraine, including artillery rounds.
