Train loaded with chain howitzers in Udine train station: This is how Italy is arming Ukraine.
A long convoy of self-propelled guns was filmed at the train station in the north-eastern Italian border town of Udine on Friday. A freight train loaded with about twenty M109Ls passed the astonished commuters at low speed.
The cargo is part of Italian military aid to Ukraine, part of which is already on the front lines. The weapons were promised by the previous government under Mario Draghi and overtaken with US funds.
The Minister for Relations with the Parliament of Italy Luca Ciriani confirmed to the Rai News 24 news channel that a batch of tank artillery units were on their way to Ukraine.
A total of 60 M109L self-propelled guns have been already sent or will be sent to Ukraine, according to La Repubblica's sources.
