The United Kingdom has changed its mind and decided to give Ukraine M270 MLRS, which can hit targets at up to 80 km, stated British Defense Minister Ben Wallace. “These highly effective multiple rocket launchers will allow our Ukrainian friends to better protect themselves from the brutal use of long-range artillery, which Putin’s forces indiscriminately have used to destroy cities,” the minister said. The provision of the M270 systems has been agreed upon with the United States, as they are manufactured by a US company and require formal permission from Washington to transfer to a third party.
