Australia will provide an extra $100 million to Ukraine for critical military equipment under a new support package as Russia's war drags on.
Australia's ambassador to NATO, former defence force chief Angus Campbell, made the Albanese government's commitment at the Ukraine Defence Contact Group meeting in Brussels overnight.
This brings the nation's overall support for Ukraine to more than $1.8 billion, including more than $1.6 billion in military assistance since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion in 2022.
In December 2025, the government committed a $50 million contribution to the Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List.
This meant Australia and New Zealand became the first non-NATO contributors to the initiative.
NATO is co-ordinating the purchase of critical defence equipment from the US by other allies.
