NZ to send Hercules plane to help Ukraine war effort

From Checkpoint, 5:41 pm on 11 April 2022

In its biggest deployment to Europe since the early 1990s, New Zealand will send an Air Force Hercules and a 50 crew to assist with Ukraine's war efforts.

They'll leave for Europe on Wednesday, but Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says neither the plane nor the crew will enter Ukraine, as they'll be working with an international co-ordination centre being run out of Germany.
