Press reveals what Germany secretly handed over to Ukraine
Germany has secretly supplied the Armed Forces of Ukraine with a large batch of weapons, Merkur.de reported.
“In late June and early July, almost secretly and without any disclosure, Berlin sent Ukraine another batch of military aid for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. This aid package also included 39 tanks from the reserves of the German military industry and the armed forces,” the article revealed.
As journalists pointed out, in addition to assault armored vehicles and artillery shells, Germany also delivered two Biber bridge-laying vehicles, two additional Dachs engineering tanks, one Bergepanzer 2 evacuation tank and four additional Wisent 1 mine-clearing tanks.
Observers also noted the transfer of HIMARS multiple launch rocket systems, which the German army is not equipped with.
In early June 2024, President Vladimir Putin said that Moscow could respond asymmetrically to the supply of long-range weapons to Ukraine. According to him, Russia would consider transferring its weapons to areas from which it could launch strikes against sensitive entities in countries supplying weapons to Kiev.
