Pakistan to send more than 10,000 Grad rockets to Ukraine

Pakistan is sending Ukraine over 10,000 rockets for the Grad multiple-launch rocket systems, Podrobytsi reported on Sunday, referring to The Economic Times.

Earlier this month, Pakistani officials approved the ammunition shipment from the Karachi Port. The rockets will go to Ukraine via the German port of Emden and then through Poland.

Although Pakistan buys oil at reduced prices from Russia amid a deepening economic crisis, the Islamic Republic regularly supplies weapons to Ukraine through third countries.

In January, Pakistan shipped 159 containers of ammunition meant for Ukraine from the Karachi Port to Gdansk Port in Poland. The shipment included 155 mm projectiles, M4A2 propelling bag charges, M82 primers and PDM fuses.
