Over 3,200 Ukrainians join army through recruiting center vacancies
More than 3,200 Ukrainians have already joined the Armed Forces through recruiting centers, Defense Ministry spokesperson Dmytro Lazutkin said in an interview with NV on July 26.
The Defense Ministry launched a recruitment project for the
Ukrainian Armed Forces at the end of last year. The ministry notes the interest
of Ukrainians in the project.
“We see that more than 10,000 people applied to recruiting
centers this year alone,” the Defense Ministry spokesman said.
“Currently, more than 3,200 people are being processed at
the territorial recruitment centers or are already learning at training
centers.”
More than 300,000 resumes were processed through online
platforms.
In total, 17,000-18,000 vacancies were posted from various
units of the Defense Forces: The Armed Forces, the National Guard, the SBU
Security Service and the Support Forces.
Vacancies such as UAV operators, as well as mechanics,
drivers, medics, scouts, and IT specialists are in great demand. There is also
a demand for rear positions such as clerks and cooks.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
