Metinvest Group handed over a batch of drones worth UAH 3 million to the Main Intelligence Directorate (MID). This is stated in the press release of Metinvest.Media.

Aircraft were ordered in the Netherlands. They have a flight range of up to 100 km, they are equipped with a camera with 80x zoom and a thermal imager. Such equipment is made by hand and is resistant to enemy electronic warfare.

By supporting the defense capability of our defenders, we are bringing Ukraine’s inevitable victory closer,” commented CEO and the head of the Metinvest’s project office Olexander Vodoviz.

In total, the Armed Forces of Ukraine received about 500 drones from the company.

The company reported on the presence of 80 turbo stoves, 170 sapper cats for remote demining and 120 mini-tablet stoves. The devices were handed over to the military defending sections of the eastern and southern fronts.
