A British defense website has broadcast a video showing heavy movement of British military aircraft carrying military aid from the United Kingdom to Ukraine between last Monday and Wednesday.
This comes at a time when Western countries are accelerating their efforts to provide Ukraine with many weapons and equipment in anticipation of a possible invasion from Russia, which in the past few months has deployed tens of thousands of its soldiers near the border with Ukraine.
Here's a time-lapse of all of the United Kingdom to #Ukraine weapons airlift flights from the morning of the 17th of January to this very minute on the 19th of January 2022. The UK has no intention of letting Ukraine fall.

The video was produced with time-acceleration technology and shows the passage of all British military aid transport flights via a single itinerary to and from Ukraine.
For the third day in a row, British military transport aircraft are delivering thousands of anti-tank weapons to the Ukrainian authorities, in order to confront the Russian military build-up near the eastern Ukrainian border, a report by the UK Defense Journal said on Wednesday.
British aid is transported via C-17 military transport aircraft.
And British Defense Minister Ben Wallace said last Monday before his country's parliament that London is providing Ukraine with a new security system to help it strengthen its defense capabilities in the face of threatening behavior from Russia.
"We have taken a decision to provide Ukraine with light defensive anti-armor weapons systems," Ben Wallace said, stressing that "they are not strategic weapons and do not pose any threat to Russia. They are for use in self-defense."
