The military command of Ukraine is working to ensure that preparation for participation in combat operations lasts a total of two months.
This was reported by the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), Oleksandr Syrskyi, on his Telegram channel.
"According to the decisions I have made, we already have the first groups of military personnel who completed basic general military training (BGMT) in 1.5 months — instead of the previous 30-day training," Syrskyi stated.
According to the Commander-in-Chief of the AFU, the further training course for newcomers in the military unit is set for 5-14 days, but in the current conditions of intense combat operations, this requirement is not always adhered to. In this regard, during the annual summary meeting, he emphasized the need to ensure a full 14-day adaptation period for recruits in the brigades.
"Commanders must prepare soldiers as thoroughly as possible for the challenges of modern warfare to keep them safe in combat," he added.
In particular, during the meeting, Syrskyi outlined tasks aimed at improving the quality of training and its enhancement.
