We have had such results only since the beginning of this year!

Units of the National Guard of Ukraine continue to effectively perform combat missions in key frontline areas.

"Today, NGU units continue to perform combat missions along the entire frontline. Our units are repelling Russian attacks in the north of Kharkiv region, in the Kupiansk, Lyman, Siversk, Kramatorsk, Toretsk, Pokrovsk, Novopavlivka, Orikhivsk directions, as well as on the southern borders. They are performing tasks to reinforce and cover sections of the state border, as well as counter-sabotage actions and special operations," he said.

Pivnenko emphasises that the operational and special purpose brigades, company and battalion tactical groups are effectively destroying enemy forces and equipment while holding their positions.

Since the beginning of 2025, units of the National Guard of Ukraine have been destroyed along the entire contact line:

  • 597 tanks;
  • 903 units of armoured vehicles;
  • 3,282 units of enemy vehicles.

Particular attention is focused on countering enemy aerial reconnaissance. Guards units have already destroyed 923 "Orlan", "Zala" and "Supercam" drones using FPV drones.

An important component of our combat effectiveness was the reinforcement of our brigades with 155 mm self-propelled artillery: "DITA", "Zuzana" and Ukrainian "Bohdana". Interaction with aerial reconnaissance allows us to target the enemy's logistics, his command posts, and concentrations of personnel and equipment.

"We continue to build up our capabilities in the use of unmanned systems. In particular, we are developing the use of fibre-optic drones, expanding the use of strike UAVs such as Heavy Shot, Nemesis and FPV drones of various modifications, which directly affects the dynamics of destruction of enemy equipment, firepower and artillery systems," the statement said.

According to Pivnenko, as a result, only in 2025 were destroyed:

  • 433 fuel and lubricant warehouses;
  • 2864 artillery systems;
  • 60 MLRS;
  • 31 SAMs.

"The National Guard of Ukraine continues to be a powerful element of the state's defence system, holding the line and accurately striking the enemy forces in critical areas of the frontline," the Commander summed up.
