The new aid came after the US, UK, France and Germany imposed further sanctions on Iran for supplying Russia with ballistic missiles for use in Ukraine.

The UK would provide $780m in aid to Ukraine to support the country's "humanitarian, energy and stabilisation needs". US will offer a further $700m in assistance.
