OTTAWA — The federal government is earmarking $3 million for production of drones in Ukraine in support of Kyiv’s fight against Russia’s invasion.
Defence Minister Bill Blair says the financial assistance is being made in collaboration with the United Kingdom.
Speaking with a group of defence leaders, Blair also announced $13 million for the Czech Republic’s effort to provide ammunition to Ukraine.

He said the first wave of armoured vehicles as well as 10 tactical boats promised to Ukraine should be delivered this summer.
