Quote: "The first M270 MLRS have arrived! They will be good company for HIMARS on the battlefield."

Details: Reznikov thanked his partners and noted that there will be no mercy for the occupiers.

Background: At the beginning of June, Britain announced the provision of M270 MLRS to Ukraine, which can hit targets at a distance of up to 80 km. 

On 29 June, the Royal Norwegian Ministry of Defence promised to facilitate Ukraine’s acquisition of additional multiple rocket launcher systems from Britain by providing the British with three replacement systems.
