Ukrainian fighters using Pakistan-made artillery against Russia? Viral video shows projectiles from Pakistan Ordnance Factory

It is notable here that Pakistan's former PM Imran Khan was in Moscow on the day Russia launched the military operation against Ukraine.

The Ukrainian military is reportedly using Pakistan-made artillery against Russian troops. As per reports, 122 mm HR artillery is being used against Russian troops in the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.

An OSINT account named Ukraine weapons tracker had recently shared a video of 122 m HE artilleries under use in Ukraine. He shared that Ukrainian artillerymen were seen using ammunition that was clearly made in Pakistan Ordinance Factory (POF), evident from the distinct British packaging widely used by POF.

He further added that the ammunition was only recently manufactured a few months ago, probably due to the escalation of the conflict.
