The journalist quoted the Polish official stating that Poland had supplied Ukraine with 10 MiG–29 fighters.
At the same time, Blaszczak did not reveal the details of the delivery of the planes to Ukraine.
For reference:
It should be noted that in mid-March, the President of Poland, Andrzej Duda, announced the transfer of the MiG-29 to Ukraine. It was revealed that an initial batch of aircraft would be delivered at the start of April, though the exact quantity was not specified.
Moreover, Germany allowed Poland to transfer five MIG-29s from the GDR's stocks in April.
