Poland and Slovakia Will Send Fighter Jets to Ukraine
-----------------------------------------------------

Polish President Andrzej Duda said Thursday his government will ship
four Soviet-era Mi G fighter jets to Ukraine, becoming the first nation
since Russia's invasion to meet Ukraine's request to deliver warplanes.
Following that announcement, Slovakia's government said it would
transfer 13 Mi G fighters to Ukraine. Finland, the Netherlands and other
NATO members are considering similar transfers.
