This is reported Reuters.

Troops began training this month in armored patrol vehicles donated by Britain, Johnson’s spokesman said.

The UK is providing Ukraine with 120 armored patrol vehicles, including the Mastiff, which can be used as a reconnaissance or patrol vehicle.

The spokesman said the country, together with its allies, is providing Ukrainian soldiers with new types of equipment that they may not have used before.

“It makes sense that they have the necessary training to make the best use of it,” the spokesman said.

From the start of the war, the UK provided Ukraine with anti-ship, anti-aircraft and light anti-tank weapons, which proved useful for use by mobile Ukrainian fighters against Russian armor.

The US military is also training Ukrainian troops in the use of howitzer artillery, while the UK is training Ukrainians in Poland in the use of anti-aircraft guns.
