Quote: "The fourth brother in the Long Hand [i.e. long-range] family, an LRU from France has arrived in Ukraine! The Ukrainian army is now even more powerful in terms of deterring and destroying the enemy. That is a visible result of friendship between Presidents Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Emmanuel Macron. Thank you to Sébastien Lecornu [Minister of the Armed Forces of France – ed.], the government and the people of France!"

For reference: LRU (Lance Roquette Unitaire) is a French modification of the U.S.-made M270 MLRS. There’s also a German modification of this weapon called MARS II (Mittleres Artillerieraketensystem) and an Italian one, the MLRS-I (MLRS Improved).
