Britain's new Prime Minister Rishi Sunak made his first visit to Kyiv on Saturday, pledging to continue the firm support for Ukraine that was a focus of his predecessors, and providing a new air defence package to help shoot down Russian drones.
"Britain knows what it means to fight for freedom," Sunak said on Twitter: "We are with you all the way."
Sunak said in a statement that Britain would provide a new 50 million pound ($60 million) package that includes anti-aircraft guns and technology such as radar to counter drone attacks. Britain also said it would increase the training it provides to Ukraine's armed forces.&nbsp;"While Ukraine's armed forces succeed in pushing back Russian forces on the ground, civilians are being brutally bombarded from the air," Sunak said in his statement.
"We are today providing new air defence, including anti-aircraft guns, radar and&nbsp;anti-drone equipment, and stepping up humanitarian support for the cold, hard winter ahead."
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy posted a video on Saturday of the two meeting in Kyiv, and he welcomed the continued support from London. "With friends like you by our side, we are confident in our victory.&nbsp;Both of our nations know what it means to stand up for freedom, Zelenskiy tweeted.&nbsp;
Spain sends generators to Ukraine 
Spain said Saturday it had sent 14 new electric generators to war-torn Ukraine, where Russian attacks on energy infrastructure have left many without power or warm water as winter approaches. On Friday "we dispatched a new package of 14 generators in view of what is proving to be a very harsh and difficult winter in Ukraine", foreign minister Jose Manuel Albares said. Kyiv on Friday appealed to European allies for support, saying nearly half of Ukraine's energy infrastructure had been disabled and needed repair.&nbsp;
