Australia will provide around 70 million dollars towards 'lethal aid' to the Ukraine - arming fighters with missiles, guns and ammunition. An additional 35 million will be spent on humanitarian assistance - providing food and shelter to people fleeing the conflict. The Prime Minister used his strongest language yet - to deter Australians from joining the fight - labeling it a "suicide mission".
