Lithuania to transfer a crowdfunded Bayraktar drone to Ukraine on Wednesday
SIAULIAI AIR BASE, Lithuania, July 6 (Reuters) - The Lithuanian government is set to transfer a Bayraktar TB2 combat drone, which was originally paid for by Lithuanian citizens via crowdfunding, to Ukraine on Wednesday evening, Lithuanian Defence Minister Arvydas Anusauskas said.
Lithuanians raised almost 6 million euros for the drone in May, largely in small donations, following which its Turkish maker, Baykar, decided to donate it instead.
