Kyiv • UNN
Kyiv RMA handed over 4 mini-excavators to the 72nd Brigade to equip their defensive positions. The company also provided the military with 50 FPV drones, a vehicle, and allocated UAH 32 million for electronic warfare, communications, and drones.
The Kyiv region handed over equipment for the construction of fortifications and drones to the defenders. This was reported by the head of the Kyiv RMA Ruslan Kravchenko, UNN reports.
"Recently, together with the community of Brovary, we handed over 4 mini-excavators to the defenders of the 72nd Brigade named after Chorny Zaporizhzhya. They were purchased at the expense of the city budget. The defenders from our sponsored brigade are fighting the Russian occupier in one of the hottest spots. The need for special equipment is extremely high. It allows us to quickly equip defensive positions and build fortifications. The equipment is modern and maneuverable - I have seen it personally," said the head of the Kyiv RMA.
Several of these mini-excavators are already helping the soldiers of the 72nd Brigade. They were purchased by a responsible business - VIDI and Stolychnyi Market. Another 9 mini-excavators will soon be handed over by the community of Vyshneve.
"Earlier, we allocated UAH 32 million from the regional budget for the soldiers of this brigade to purchase electronic warfare systems, communications equipment and drones of various types," added the head of the Kyiv RMA.
The community of Brovary also donated 50 FPV drones to the 136th Battalion of the TRO. A car for the Special Forces soldiers.
Kravchenko thanked the communities and responsible businesses for their continued support of the military.
"I am grateful to our military who are defending the country and giving a worthy rebuff to the Russian occupier!" said the head of the Kyiv RMA.
