They were taken to the army: more than half of volunteers were mobilized in Lviv, who were knocking down the drones of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation

To spread: more than half of the personnel of the volunteer formation of the Lion Battalion are mobilized, and now they are fighting as a part of the defense forces, and for those who are left - now additional load. Two months ago, more than 900 people served in the battalion, of which 500 were called up to the Armed Forces.

To defend the country to the front was all who do not have official reservation or deferral, told in a conversation with "Public Lviv" the commander of the volunteer formation # 2 of the battalion "Lev" Valentin Seredyuk. According to him, the reduction of personnel has led to the fact that it became more difficult to complete the task. "That is why we are now a kind of recruiting civilians who want to be useful and ask them to join our ranks.

One of the urgent problems is air defense, and accordingly guys involved in mobile fire groups understand it. Well, it turns out that the intensity of duty is very dense," From the beginning of a full-scale invasion, the members of the voluntary formation of "Lion" are protected by critical infrastructure objects, conducting tactical medicine for civilians and knocking down hostile drones as part of mobile groups.

At the request of journalists, the General Directorate of Communications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine explained that participation in volunteer formations did not release from mobilization.
