Berlin: On June 1, Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that Germany would supply Ukraine with the IRIS-T air defense system. The decision was made following pleas from both Kyiv and German opposition parties for heavy weapons deliveries. Scholz also said Germany had been “delivering continuously since the beginning of the war”, pointing to more than 15 million rounds of ammunition, 100,000 grenades, and over 5,000 anti-tank mines sent to Ukraine since Russia invaded it.
