Slovakia's new government on November 8 rejected a previously drafted plan to donate rockets and ammunition to Ukraine, following through on a pledge by incoming Prime Minister Robert Fico to halt military aid to Kyiv as it fights a Russian invasion. The aid package included 140 KUB air-defense-system rockets, more than 5,000 pieces of 125 mm cannon ammunition and 4 million rounds of small arms ammunition, according to the deal that had been put forward by the NATO country's caretaker government before it handed over power last month. Fico's government rejected the package at a cabinet meeting.
