Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal announced this during the government meeting on Tuesday, April 5.
«Today we are adding another 5.6 billion hryvnias. Of these, 1.1 billion hryvnias are for the construction of fortifications in Donetsk region, over 1 billion hryvnias for Zaporizhzhia region, 1.5 billion hryvnias for Sumy region, and 300 and 400 million hryvnias for Mykolaiv region and Kherson region, respectively,» said Denys Shmyhal.
We will remind you that work on the construction of fortification defense lines is carried out virtually continuously, but the biggest problem now is enemy drones. It is noted that the defense lines are arranged by both military and civilian workers.
What about the mobilization in Mykolaiv Oblast?
As you know, during the full-scale war, 33,000 residents of the Mykolaiv Oblast were mobilized into the ranks of the Armed Forces.
The head of the Mykolaiv regional military administration, Vitalii Kim, expressed his belief in the need for mobilization after personal communication with the military, who are currently defending the state. The head of the RMA also added that money should not be the main motivation for protecting the state.
In response to this, Oksana Kaliuzhna, a member of the Mykolaiv Regional Council, reacted negatively to the regional leadership's statement regarding mobilization, comparing the issuing of summonses to evasioners to catching dogs.
