Slovakia will transfer eight Zazana 2 self-propelled howitzers to Ukraine. The transfer will be carried out under a commercial contract signed by a state-owned manufacturer.
Reuters quoted the Slovak Ministry of Defense as saying.
The Susana 2 howitzers are a modernized version using 155-mm shells and an effective range of 40 kilometers or 50 kilometers, depending on the ammunition.
On May 31, President of Slovakia Zuzana Čaputová visited Ukraine. She met with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal and visited Borodyanka and Irpin, which were destroyed by the russian army.
