Norway has decided to donate F-16 combat aircraft to Ukraine, Norwegian broadcaster TV2 reported on Thursday, citing unnamed sources.

It did not say how many jets Norway would provide.

The Norwegian foreign ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

If confirmed, Norway would become the third nation after the Netherlands and Denmark to announce donations of F-16 jets to Ukraine.
