Europe Deploys Its Artillery Due To Conflict In The Middle East
Europe has moved from statements to steel. In a dramatic show of force, several European nations are rushing heavy artillery and rocket systems toward the eastern Mediterranean as the conflict in the Middle East threatens to spiral out of control, defence officials say.
Long convoys of self‑propelled howitzers, HIMARS‑class rocket launchers and air‑defence batteries have been filmed rolling through ports and rail hubs in Italy, Greece and Cyprus, headed for hastily established “forward fire zones” designed to protect European bases, airfields and key sea lanes.
