Six active-duty units of the Defence Intelligence of the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine received an aid package from an anonymous donor in the Netherlands.

According to Ukrinform, the Defence Intelligence reported this on Facebook

The package includes more than 700 Hatsan MKA1919 and MAVKA MKA1919 pump-action shotguns, 130 Holosun Enclosed HS512C-RD and Holosun Paralow HS403B collimator sights, which are not dependent on external lighting or weather conditions, as well as 20,000 rounds of ammunition.

The commander of the Artan Special Action Unit, call sign “Titan”, noted that the provided shotguns are an effective means of countering low-flying enemy UAVs.

“This weapon has become an effective tool in combating aerial threats, especially in close-range engagements. Although the benefactor’s name remains undisclosed, we are sincerely grateful for this gesture of support. In times of full-scale war against Russian aggression, any targeted assistance is an expression of solidarity,” Titan emphasized.

The aid has already been delivered to the fighters of the Defence Intelligence special units Artan, Arei, KRAKEN, Shamanbat, the International Legion, and the Vikings group.
