Several European countries decided Saturday to send weapons and ammunition to Ukraine as Russia continues a military operation in that country.

Cernochova said on her social media account that the Czech Republic would send machine guns, sniper rifles and ammunition.

She also noted that the equipment would be sent to a location designated by Ukrainians.

The Netherlands will send 50 German-made anti-tank weapons, according to a statement by its Defense Ministry.

Belgium’s premier Alexander De Croo said his country would respond to Ukraine’s request for military assistance by sending military equipment, 2,000 automatic rifles and 3,800 tons of fuel.
