As the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine previously reported, first of all, winter equipment is provided to military personnel who are in the combat zone. According to Deputy Minister of Defense Viacheslav Shapovalov, this issue is almost 100% closed.

At the same time, Ukraine receives help from partners, since it is not only about uniforms, but also about generators, tents and other winter equipment, as needed by the military.

Lithuania, Germany and Denmark have already announced the transfer of winter uniforms to Ukraine.

In addition, Ukraine sent a request for help with winter equipment to NATO member states. In particular, equipment has already been promised in the USA, Canada, Sweden and Finland. This regards providing 200,000 soldiers.
