The ministry has not specified what weapons it sent, however according to unofficial reports it was ammunition, small arms, heavy equipment, including Dana self-propelled howitzers, RM-70 Grad salvo rocket launchers, Soviet-made T-72 tanks and infantry fighting vehicles.

Defense Ministry spokesperson Jana Zechmeisterová confirmed that the Czech Republic is now negotiating with Germany on cooperation regarding military assistance to Ukraine.
