"We are strengthening our defenders at the expense of the communities of the region, in particular Beryslav, Novokakhovka, Holoprystan, Kalanchak and Lazurnia," the official said.

According to Prokudin, the cost of the transferred UAVs amounted to more than one million hryvnias.

Earlier, the Marine Corps, which defends Kherson region, received more than a hundred FPV drones andMavic. The Beryslav, Myrnenska, Ivanivska, Skadovska, and Kalanchakska communities allocated more than one and a half million hryvnias for this support.

The Estonian government has also recently supported the proposal of Defense Minister Hanno Pevkur to send another package of military aid to Ukraine. Pevkur noted that it will soon be 1,000 days since Ukraine began the fight for its freedom against Russian aggression. He emphasized that Ukraine continues to need the support of both Estonia and the international community to defend its independence.

The new package includes naval uniforms, surveillance devices, sights, ballistic protection equipment, and various types of ammunition. According to the minister, the aid was formed from the reserves of the Estonian Defense Forces, taking into account the needs of Ukraine and without prejudice to Estonia's defense capabilities.

In addition, South Korea is talking about providing weapons to Ukraine. Bloomberg reported that the circumstances surrounding Trump's victory in the U.S. election may prompt South Korea to reconsider sending weapons directly to Ukraine. The government ofPresident Yun Seok-yeol has to take into account the position of the newly elected US president to decide whether to change its long-standing policy of refusing to provide lethal aid to Kyiv. South Korea is also examining how Donald Trump's approach to the war will affect support for Ukraine from a number of countries.
