In total, Vasyl Baidak raised 11,386,056 hryvnias for Ukrainian intelligence.
Eight million hryvnias from these funds will be used to purchase Magura V5 strike sea drones, the rest - to support the special forces of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
The purchase of strike drones will be carried out by the Diana Podolanchuk Charity Foundation, which constantly helps military intelligence officers and is a co-organizer of the collection for the 'Maguras'. Intelligence officers noted that thanks to the sea drones, 18 Russian ships were successfully hit, nine of them were destroyed.
