Major General Christian Freudding announced that Germany will deliver the first long-range missiles to Ukraine by the end of July, funded through a German-Ukrainian production project. The statement, reported by various sources including posts found on X, indicates that these missiles, designed for deep strikes, will enhance Ukraine’s military capabilities. The announcement follows a memorandum signed in May 2025, detailing the joint production efforts, with Germany providing financial support for the initiative.

Germany has not disclosed the exact number of missiles or their specific range, but the move is part of a broader effort involving over 30 flights conducted in 2024 for similar weapon systems. The Bundeswehr’s official website also highlighted the Übung Grand Crossings 2025 exercises, starting June 23, which included practicing troop transfers across rivers, signaling NATO’s coordinated military activities.
