Sweden will send its new aid package to Ukraine, featuring new military support worth 4.6 billion Swedish crowns ($443 million).

This was reported by Reuters, citing Swedish Defence Minister Pal Jonson. 

The package will include ammunition for the infantry fighting vehicles previously donated by Sweden and will also cover purchases to potentially enable a future transfer of Gripen fighter jets, although no decision on the transfer has been made yet.

"We want to have the ability to donate Gripens to Ukraine at a possible later stage," Jonson told a news conference.
