The German government sent the Ukrainian military several tens of thousands of 40 mm rounds.

The German government’s website says that the new package includes 26,880 of these rounds. A total of 134,592 40mm ammunition have already been transferred.

This ammunition is intended for automatic grenade launchers that Western allies are providing to Ukraine.

The new package includes ammunition for small arms.

Germany is also strengthening logistics. Ukraine received 32 Zetros trucks, new MAN HX 81 truck tractor trains, and four vehicles for Ukrainian border guards.

Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks has delivered 188 highly off-road-capable Zetros trucks to the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense.

According to the company’s press release, trucks with a capacity of up to 476 horsepower are needed by the Ukrainian army for military support and logistics tasks.

In addition, Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks is providing the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense with extensive services relating to these vehicles.

Even before the delivery of the Zetros, drivers completed training courses and deployments with the new cab-behind-engine vehicles.

The funds for the procurement came from the German government’s support initiative, which is jointly overseen and implemented by the German Foreign Office and the German Ministry of Defense.

The new package also includes one Biber bridge-laying tank, which carries and deploys the bridge for crossing rivers, anti-tank ditches, and other obstacles.
