The theft occurred after the driver reportedly parked the truck in an unguarded public parking lot overnight. The exact location and date of the incident have not been disclosed by officials.
The Bundeswehr confirmed the loss and stated an investigation is underway. The ammunition is described as standard small-arms rounds, not high-explosive material. Police have appealed to the public for information regarding the theft.
