Zelensky Holds Meeting With Commanders On Lyman Front
"In the Lyman sector, I held a coordination meeting with corps, brigade, and battalion commanders. There were reports on decisions regarding defense procurement at the brigade level, first and foremost the procurement of pickup trucks. We also discussed strengthening the Unmanned Systems Forces, increasing funding for drones, simplifying procurement, increasing authorized strength, as well as replenishing and training personnel. There is a need for long-range artillery. We coordinated this issue with the military. We also agreed that commanders would prepare proposals on pay for warriors serving on the front line," Zelensky said following the meeting.
The President separately spoke with corps commanders about the situation on the front lines in the east and south of the country, the development of drone and counter-drone technologies, and new methods of warfare. They also discussed the return of service members who had gone absent without leave (AWOL), the recruitment of foreign nationals, and logistics.
