Petro Poroshenko and volunteers brought equipment for the repair of combat vehicles to the brigades fighting in the most tense areas of the eastern front.
This was reported by Censor.NET with reference to the EU press service.
"Today there is a record number of brigades here. All of them came from hot spots: Marinka, Avdiivka, Kupiansk. The 79th, 25th, 77th, 44th artillery brigades and other brigades brought a mobile tire fitting workshop, mobile car repair workshops based on DAF trucks, mobile washing and shower complexes, tires for HMMWV cars, DJI Mavic quadcopters," Poroshenko said.
The soldiers of the 79th Air Assault Brigade were given a unique mobile tire service station based on the British DAF YA truck. This tire service can quickly "change" any tires, including scarce tires for American HMMWVs.
Three DAF-based mobile auto repair shops and rubber for HMMWV were handed over to the 25th Separate Airborne Brigade, which is fighting in the Lyman direction. The workshops are equipped with the necessary tools, machines and generators for autonomous operation in any conditions.
A powerful FODEN multi-loader, YA trucks and bath and laundry complexes were delivered to the Air Assault Forces Logistics Battalion. The total cost of this batch of equipment is UAH 15 million. The military also thanked for the deficient tires.
"Today our brigade is receiving tires for our Humvees. This is a very problematic issue in the Armed Forces. It is a deficit. We are grateful to the Poroshenko Foundation for this help. Combat units are carrying out missions on these Humvees from our American partners. These tires are not produced in Ukraine," the soldiers explain.
