Ukraine has decided to invest 8 billion hryvnias in the development of the military sphere, in particular, in the production of drones and strengthening the Armed Forces of the country. Defense Minister Denys Shmyhal announced this on Telegram. According to Shmyhal, certain units have already demonstrated high efficiency in the use of drones, so significant funds are allocated for their needs.
