NEWS STORY : Poland Sends Four Fighter Aircraft to Ukraine

STORY

The Polish Government has confirmed that it is sending four Soviet-era MiG-29s military aircraft to help Ukraine defend themselves from Russian military attack. The Polish President, Andrzej Duda, said that the aircraft were approaching the end of their life but they were still in full working order. He indicated that more fighter jets might be sent from Poland and the decision may also encourage other nations to send military aircraft to Ukraine. The UK has ruled out any immediate transfer of fighter jets, but said that it may reconsider this decision in the future.
