German defence minister: allies to deliver Ukraine 3 more HIMARS

German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius said on Thursday Ukraine's Western allies would deliver it three more High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS) to help it fight Russia's invasion.

"They come from U.S. armed forces' stocks and will be paid by us," he said after meeting with U.S. counterpart Lloyd Austin in Washington.

HIMARS is a missile launcher mounted on a truck that can fire multiple guided missiles in quick succession. Missiles supplied to Ukraine have a range of up to 50 miles (80 km).
