"NATO Allies Step Up Support for Ukraine with Fighter Jet Supplies"

TL;DR Summary
Poland has announced that it will provide Ukraine with a dozen MiG-29 fighter jets, making it the first NATO member to fulfill Kyiv's requests for warplanes to defend itself against the Russian invasion. Warsaw will hand over four of the Soviet-made warplanes "within the next few days," President Andrzej Duda said, and the rest needed servicing but would be supplied later. The move has been praised by the White House as a sovereign decision, but it stressed that it would have no bearing on President Biden's decision not to provide U.S. F-16s to Ukraine.
