The Minister of Defense wrote about this on Facebook following the results of the past eleven days of heroic resistance.

“I will not comment on the supply of weapons and ammunition – this is a delicate moment. Let the enemy be in for a surprise. Know that there is significant progress,” the minister stressed.

Among other things, according to him, over the past three days, more than 50 thousand helmets and bulletproof vests have already been delivered, are going to Ukraine or contracted.

“We are ‘intercepting’ uniforms already made for the armies of NATO countries from suppliers. Let our defenders be dressed in different clothes. The main thing is to make it convenient to beat the enemy,” the minister added.

“We are working on obtaining assistance in the field of air defense and missile defense from partners. But confidence in the inevitability of our victory is added not by uttered promises, but by the Ukrainian Air Force,” Reznikov stressed.

Recall that on February 24, early in the morning, Russian troops broke into Ukraine. Later,  the Verkhovna Rada supported the introduction of martial law in the Ukrainian state . 

The enemy fired at military facilities, and then used various weapons and aircraft against peaceful settlements, Kyiv, Kharkov and Mariupol were attacked more than once.

According to the Pentagon, Russia has already deployed 95% of the forces and assets concentrated near the borders of Ukraine before the invasion.
