“The exercise is for troops coming from the front line in Bakhmut to meet new recruits to show them how everything works. [armamento novo] it works”.

Commander Kalsa Martsin sums up the importance of the issue this way: “The Russians have an immense amount of old Soviet weapons. They end up throwing a lot of metal at us. We can’t beat them that way. We need quality and precision.”

“We need a lot of weapons and vehicles,” says 57th Brigade sniper Denys.

Training with the most technological and powerful weapons takes place on Ukrainian territory while Kiev continues to seek more support and donations of resources and weapons.
