CinC Syrskyi: Eight military units lose right to conduct basic combat training independently

Eight military units have lost the right to independently conduct basic general military training (BGMT).

Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi announced this on Facebook, according to Ukrinform.

“Attitude toward people is what fundamentally distinguishes us from the Russian aggressor. We value and protect our personnel, which is why high-quality training of service members remains one of our top priorities,” Syrskyi said.

According to the Commander-in-Chief, “it is precisely through professionalism, high-quality training, and asymmetric solutions that we maintain an advantage over an enemy with greater human resources.”

The Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to improve the BGMT program in line with the realities of the modern battlefield. In particular, the curriculum now includes practical training for group operations aimed at detecting and destroying small unmanned aerial systems, including quadcopters and FPV drones.
