"Rheinmetall has received an order from the German government to supply Ukraine with around 100,000 rounds of 120mm mortar ammunition. The order, worth a figure in the lower-three-digit million-euro range, forms part of a recent. €400 million military aid package for the Ukrainian armed forces. Delivery is due to begin shortly and extend over the next two years," the statement read. The arms manufacturer said that it had reinforced its production after its recent takeover of Spanish company Expal. Rheinmetall added that its ammunition "can assure favourable outcomes even during operations in difficult terrain and urban environments." Western allies began providing financial assistance to Kiev and pouring weapons and ammunition into Ukraine shortly after Russia launched its military operation in the country in February 2022, with the amount of money allocated for financial, humanitarian and military support to Ukraine exceeding $150 billion.Russia has repeatedly slammed the US and its allies over their continued arms deliveries to the Kiev regime, pointing to the danger they pose in escalating the crisis and facilitating weapons smuggling. Additionaly, the foreign military aid is regarded as a legitimate military target.
