Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak announced Thursday the decision to supply Kiev with a new batch of 10 Leopard 2 tanks. 

"We have transferred another 10 Leopard 2A4 tanks to Ukraine," Blaszczak told journalists, noting that other NATO member-states will soon send their tanks to Ukraine, including eight tanks from Canada, eight from Norway, and six from Spain. 

This adds up to a recent batch of four Leopard 2 tanks that Poland sent to Ukraine in late February.

On February 24, Blaszczak announced that Poland was the first European country to deliver the first four Polish Leopard 2 A4 tanks to Ukraine.
