Weapons for Ukraine – what is known
As UNIAN reported earlier, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz confirmed the continued support of Ukraine with arms supplies. During a speech in the Bundestag in early March, he said that in the coming weeks Ukraine would receive Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns and the IRIS-T air defense system.
Recall that in November 2022, it was reported that Germany supplied Ukraine with 30 Gepard anti-aircraft guns. And in February of this year, it became known that Germany was transferring two more Gepard anti-aircraft guns and 6,000 anti-aircraft ammunition to these guns to Ukraine.
