Slovakia has signed a contract with the Ukrainian side for the supply of eight Zuzana 2 self-propelled howitzers to counter Russian aggression.
According to Ukrinform, Slovak Defense Minister Jaroslav Nad said this on Twitter.
“Glad to confirm that contract for Zuzana2 howitzers for Ukraine was signed – 8 pieces will be delivered to Ukraine,” he wrote.

Slovak President Zuzana Caputova said in her address to the Verkhovna Rada on May 31 that the Slovak Republic would provide Ukraine with Zuzana 2 self-propelled howitzers.
On February 24, Russia launched a new phase of its war against Ukraine – a full-scale invasion. Russian invaders are shell and bombing cities, towns and villages in Ukraine, torturing and killing civilians. Ukraine’s defense forces are offering fierce resistance to Russian invaders.
