The training of Ukrainians has already begun: Volunteers in Lithuania bought 16 Israeli radars for the Armed Forces

Lithuanian media reports that radars were purchased by private initiative. Volunteers managed to negotiate with Israel, who had previously refused to sell such radar. In Lithuania, volunteers from the non -governmental organization "Blue/Yellow" purchased 16 radar systems for the Armed Forces. About it writes the Lithuanian edition of 15min.

According to the head of the organization Yonas Omanas, the Ukrainian military has already arrived in the city of Kaunas, who will be trained to use these radars. He also stated that a charity initiative called "Radar!" She was able to collect 14 million euros. It was for this money that 16 radar made in Israel managed to buy.

However, it is reported that it is difficult to speak about the exact terms of supply, it is expected that all radars will be made within a few months, and the first will come to Ukraine in the near future. Omanas also stressed that if such a purchase was made by the state, it lasted much longer, at least six months.

"It is very important to emphasize that Israel had not sold such technologies to anyone when it comes to Ukraine, but we managed to agree," a non -governmental organization spokesman. Also, according to journalists, the Ukrainian military will learn to use the radar for 4 days. "We started the course on Monday. Theoretical lectures are scheduled for the first two days, and now they go to the audience. In the next two days we will go to field and control over the airspace of Lithuania.

It should be noted that the press service of the Lithuanian Armed Forces on Facebook also confirmed the purchase of radar systems for Ukraine. "Fast training of staff is one of the advantages of this equipment. After exercises, the Ukrainian military will return home, where radars will warn residents and save their lives and maintain critical infrastructure," the message reads.

Recall that in Ukraine they are expected to approve the resolution on the creation of a tribunal over the Russian Federation as early as April. The employee of the VP noted that Kiev is working on a project with international partners, and now all efforts are aimed at increasing punishments for perfect aggression. The journalists of The Washington Post said Ukrainian officials are not sure of the success of the Armed Forces counter -offensive.
