Spain decided to transfer six launchers for Hawk anti-aircraft missile systems to Ukraine following negotiations between Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez and President Vladimir Zelensky. This was reported by the press service of the Spanish government, writes La Moncloa.

During the negotiations, the heads of Ukraine and Spain discussed the current situation at the front, in connection with which Sanchez offered Zelensky new air defense and anti-drone systems, as well as appropriate training for Ukrainian soldiers and mine clearance equipment.

“As a result of today’s negotiations with President Zelensky, the Spanish government will provide Ukraine with six Hawk launchers to combat possible Russian bombing of civilian targets and critical infrastructure, as well as to protect the new grain corridor,” the statement said.

  1. Spain had already delivered Hawks last year. There were rumours that the system wasn’t working. At least there had never been any reports about its usage. Have those problems been solved now?

    • Hadn’t heard that, but hopefully fixed by now if they had an issue.🤔 I don’t see Ukraine wanting more if it hadn’t been resolved.
