France to send more mobile artillery to Ukraine: Defence minister
4 个月前
PARIS: France will send 12 more Caesar truck-mounted howitzers to Ukraine for its fight against Russian invaders, Defence Minister Sebastien Lecornu said Tuesday (Jan 31).
The artillery pieces, adding to 18 already delivered, would be financed from a 200-million-euro (US$217 million) fund France set up to fund arms for Kyiv, Lecornu said in a joint Paris press conference with his Ukrainian counterpart Oleksiy Reznikov.
Alongside other Western-supplied mobile cannons like the German Panzerhaubitze 2000, the Caesar was credited last year with helping Ukraine strike targets deep behind Russian lines, undermining Moscow's offensive.
