Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi held a meeting on the status and readiness of the Armed Forces’ reserves, during which special attention was given to strengthening the defense of the state border in the northern direction.
“To increase the effectiveness of border defense, a decision was made to form new unmanned systems units. They will be equipped with the necessary weapons, equipment, and other resources to carry out their assigned tasks. At the same time, we continue to expand the capabilities of the units already operating in this area,” Syrskyi wrote.
The meeting also reviewed the status of the Territorial Defense Forces brigades.
“We made a fundamental decision to significantly expand the drone component within their structure. This will substantially enhance the units’ capabilities in reconnaissance, striking enemy targets, and protecting their designated areas of responsibility,” Syrskyi noted.
