France to send more mobile artillery to Ukraine: Defense minister

France will send 12 more Caesar truck-mounted howitzers to Ukraine for its fight against Russia, Defense Minister Sebastien Lecornu said Tuesday.
The artillery pieces, adding to 18 already delivered, would be financed from a 200-million-euro ($217-million) fund France set up to fund arms for Kyiv, Lecornu said in a joint Paris press conference with his Ukrainian counterpart Oleksiy Reznikov.
