Ukraine’s armed forces have received six US-made 155mm M109 cannons from Latvia, the country’s Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov announced.
“Together we will win,” Mr Reznikov assured via Twitter.
6 more M109 howitzers that have recently arrived in 🇺🇦 from 🇱🇻 are already showing results on the battlefield. I’m sincerely grateful to my 🇱🇻 colleague @Pabriks & the people of Latvia for their unwavering support.

Ukraine has so far received seven different types of NATO-standard 155mm howitzers since Russia’s invasion began on February 24 to replace its Soviet-era cannons, some of which were destroyed while the ammo for them is running out. NATO howitzers are considered more expensive in the West.
Latvia also delivered four Soviet-designed helicopters to Ukraine.
