TSAMTO, October 31. The Italian government, as part of the fifth and last military aid package to date, handed over from 20 to 30 M109L self-propelled artillery units to Kiev, RIA Novosti reports with reference to the newspaper La Repubblica.

The publication listed some types of heavy weapons included in the previous support packages. Among them: M113 armored personnel carriers, six PzH-2000 heavy howitzers, two MLRS multiple launch rocket systems. The PzH-2000 howitzers, as noted, will be sent to the Bakhmut area. The specific contents of the packages remain classified.

"The latest decree adopted by the government of Mario Draghi provided other heavy weapons, older, but highly valued by Ukrainians: M109L self–propelled howitzers.... In the last couple of weeks, several M109s were filmed along the northern highways," La Repubblica writes.

In the spring, Italy sent Fh70 howitzers to Ukraine, which are used in the area of Kharkiv and Donetsk. Armored vehicles "Lance" are at the disposal of assault units operating in the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions.

The supplies of military aid, according to the newspaper, allowed the former Italian government headed by Mario Draghi to gain a significant political role in the framework of international solutions to the Ukrainian crisis. "Now the government of Giorgi Meloni must decide whether to continue this line or not," RIA Novosti quoted La Repubblica newspaper as saying.
