A wing for an aircraft, including a main wing, a slat, and a connection assembly for movably connecting the slat to the main wing, such that the slat is movable between a retracted position and at least one extended position. The connection assembly includes a first connection element and a second connection element, both movably mounted to the main wing and mounted to the slat, wherein the second connection element is spaced apart from the first connection element in a wing span direction. The wing further includes a drive unit provided at the main wing and connected to the slat for initiating movement of the slat. An object, to prevent skew cases of the slat, is achieved in that the connection assembly includes a rotatable sync shaft rotatably engaging both the first connection element and the second connection element for sync movement of the first and second connection elements.
