Metinvest donated drones and night vision devices with special helmets worth UAH 10 million to the military, Metinvest-Media reported.

Ukrainian Ground Forces received from Metinvest more than 60 drones and 50 night vision devices with helmets that are mounted under a thermal imager. According to the military, this is not the first aid from the company.

“We are grateful for the aid we have received. This will help us to provide “air eyes” to our units on the battlefield. It is very important that our enemy does not rest at night. And this equipment with the ability to fight at night is very important for our guys on the front line,” said Ruslan Sukhov, an officer of the Department of Operation of Aviation Systems of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukeaine.

According to Oleh Matvienko, an adviser to the head of the Kyiv Military Administration, the supply of drones, turnstiles and protective equipment from Metinvest is expected soon.

Earlier GMK Center reported that Metinvest has allocated UAH 1.18 billion to help Ukraine since the beginning of the Russian invasion. The company provides humanitarian support, food, medicines: ammunition, vehicles and other necessary items to the Armed Forces and the Territorial Defense.
