Germany announces what military equipment it will provide to Ukraine

Germany still has not provided Ukraine with modern tanks, but continues to send other types of weapons, including, in particular, self-propelled howitzers.

Quote: "More self-propelled howitzers have been transferred to Ukraine. We are talking about 24 units. Six or seven Gepard self-propelled anti-aircraft guns will also be provided."

Details: The representative of the Bundestag noted that she personally advocates transferring modern Leopard and Marder tanks to Ukraine, but the government still has not supported this initiative.

According to Strack-Zimmerman, providing them now is really necessary and she no longer "sees any reason not to do it."

Background: Germany has given Ukraine new commitments to supply weapons to counter the full-scale Russian invasion.
