Rostyslav Tistyk, Member of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine and coordinator of the Support Center for the 125th Separate Brigade of the Territorial Defense Force of Ukraine’s Armed Forces, presented this information during the briefing at Media Center Ukraine.

“Over the first months, we raised about UAH 6.3 million together with our partners to buy thermal imagers, helmets, body armor, and other necessary items, such as clothing, medicines, and some equipment. We also provided a car funded by benefactors. In May, we raised even more – about UAH 7 million,” Rostyslav Tistyk said.

“Our brigade is supplied quite well thanks to quartermasters of Ukraine’s Armed Forces and NGOs, the 125 Charity Fund, and other sources. The units deployed in the active combat area are 100% supplied. Here, we are receiving deliveries and are close to being fully supplied. However, some gaps may happen when getting various supplies, but, for instance, thanks to this Charity Fund, we resolve issues promptly,” Oleksandr Khoroshun explained.
