Denmark, Norway team up to donate shells, fuzes to Ukraine
Norway and Denmark will donate 8,000 artillery rounds to Ukraine. Norway donates the shells, while Denmark donates the associated fuzes, propellant bags and primer cartridges.
"Ukraine has a significant need for artillery ammunition. Norway will contribute where we can. It is important for both Europe's and Norway's security that Ukraine succeeds in standing up to Russia's attack. Norway has contributed heavily to Ukraine through 2022, and will continue its support in the years to come," said Norska Defence Minister Bjørn Arild Gram, according to Oslo's government.
- The Ukrainians still have a great and urgent need for ammunition for their fight for freedom against Russia. Denmark, together with other EU and NATO countries, is in the process of accommodating several different military contributions. Our cooperation with Norway is an important example of this, says Acting Minister of Defense in Denmark, Troels Lund Poulsen.
The rounds are standard NATO 155 mm artillery ammunition and will supplement the Danish donation of 19 Caesar self-propelled howitzers.
The artillery shells are delivered from the Norwegian Armed forces’ stock.
