Zelenskiy says Ukraine making 60 per cent of its arms
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said that approximately 60 percent of the weapons used by the Ukrainian army were produced in the country and already exceeded a target that he had already set two months ago.
Zelenskiy, “During this war, Ukraine, approximately 60 percent of the weapons we have, weapons in the hands of our soldiers reached the point where Ukraine was made.” He said.
“And these are strong weapons with many advanced features.”
Zelenskiy and other officials emphasized that Ukraine has increased local weapons production as a key element in providing future defense.
At his address, he also pointed out a common project to produce weapons in Denmark.
In July, the President called on the reorganized government to take measures to increase the production of weapons in Ukraine more than 50 percent.
Later, Ukrainian -made weapons made up about 50 percent of those used in the front and other operations, and that the 1991 Soviet administration was higher than other times since independence.
Ukraine focused on drone production and providing air defenses against Russia’s intense drone and missile attacks against Ukrainian cities.
Authorities also emphasized the development of intercept drones as an effective and economical way to deal with Russian air strikes.
Authorities in the Belgorod region of Russia said on Saturday, three people were killed in the Ukrainian drone attacks.
The attacks occurred in four different places that were not far from the Ukrainian border written by Russian Governor Vyacheslav Gladkov on the telegram.
A bus and a minibus and another man’s drivers were reportedly killed in separate attacks.
The other two people were injured.
Ukraine air defense systems said that they pushed the herds of Russian drones through Kyiv late on Saturday.
The Ukrainian army warned that war drones approached Kherson from the Black Sea to the southern city of Kherson, and called the city residents – and the capital – shelter.
Warnings were also given in Dnipropetrovsk and Zaporizhzhia regions.
Military manager Ivan Fedorov reported that a kindergarten and a residential building were shot in Zaporizhzhia, and a woman had a minimum wound on her head.
The heavy struggle continues on the front fronts of Ukraine, where the armed forces said that the Russian army has changed their tactics.
A Ukrainian unit responsible for the challenging ruins of Pokrovsk said that a recently deployed Russian sailor’s unit is trying to penetrate deeply in small groups and aims to approach the positions of Ukraine artillery and drone controllers.
Russian troops reportedly tried to break Ukrainian defense lines and to establish themselves in new positions.
With the increase in the use of tanks and armored vehicles, the Russian army is trying to completely surround the city and its defenders.
“According to the current information, Russia plans to deploy its troops for a ‘decisive breakthrough’ in the Donetsk region.” He said.
