Australia ramps up military support to Ukraine

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. That story by Krishani Dhanji, Shuba Krishnan, Ben Lewis, Pablo Vinales and Arianna Lucente for SBS News, produced by Praba Maheswaran for SBS Tamil.
