Quote from Zelenskyy: "Today, a non-public but still strategically important event took place: government officials presented the results of the first year of the Army of Drones. It’s not just a project any more, but a real Ukrainian drone army."

Details: Zelenskyy said there had been a presentation of the various types of Ukrainian drones used for defence, as well as a meeting with manufacturers, designers and donors.

Zelenskyy emphasised that the Army of Drones will increase, as the Armed Forces need all types of drones – from fairly simple Mavic drones to naval and attack drones that are capable of operating at long distances.

"By the way, we often discuss this topic at the Staff meeting, and often with raised voices. But there are results, and this can be seen in the news. There will be more good news involving Ukrainian drones. And this is crucial," the president emphasised.
