The first Dassault Mirage 2000 combat aircraft France pledged to donate to Ukraine have arrived in the embattled country, French Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu says. The aircraft, which arrived in Ukraine on Feb. 6, were flown by Ukrainian pilots who have undergone months of training in France...

Though the aircraft won't be enough to turn the tide in Kyiv's favor, they may make it that much harder for Russia to gain any further ground.

PARIS — Ukraine received the first Mirage 2000 fighter jets promised by France on Thursday, French Armed Forces Minister Sébastien Lecornu said, giving the country its second type of Western aircraft in addition to F-16 jets handed over by allies last year.
