Ukraine has received 18 Bohdana self-propelled howitzers, funded by Denmark, marking the first EU-financed purchase of Ukrainian-made military equipment. The deal, announced by Danish Defense Minister Troels Lund Poulsen, reflects deepening NATO-aligned defense cooperation during the ongoing war with Russia. The Bohdana is a highly mobile, NATO-standard 155 mm artillery system capable of rapid firing and retreating, with a range of 35 miles. Denmark’s financial support for Ukrainian arms manufacturing is part of a broader commitment, including $115 million for defense equipment. Ukraine’s ongoing military operations have slowed Russian offensives and further enhanced its defensive capabilities with the help of international partnerships.
