"From the air defense": the General Staff responded to rumors about departure to the front of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces

In this regard, the General Staff of the Armed Forces stressed that this information is unreliable and incorrect. The newspaper journalists refer to the words "officers of the Armed Forces" who allegedly reported that the deficit of soldiers on the front line is so acute that some of the air defense specialists are sent to infantry units, although they do not have appropriate training. This inevitably affects the efficiency of Ukrainian air defense.

In addition, the authors of the material, "according to sources" continued, the commanders are sent to the advanced disagreement, or as their punishment. Such practice can lead to the fact that air forces can disclose important information by capturing the Russians. The Ukrainian military leadership immediately responded to the publication. The General Staff emphasized that the statement about "turning the air defense into infantry" is unreliable.

Such decisions affect exclusively servicemen not related to the implementation of tasks to protect the Ukrainian sky. "For the purpose of qualitative completion of personnel of military units, which are formed and restored combat capacity, determined by the number of servicemen from the departments of the Air Force of the Armed Forces is really re-assigned to positions, in accordance with their military accounting specialties," the army said.

It was added that professional air defense professionals responsible for the protection of the Ukrainian sky do not apply. These are the staff of the Roth security, the rear mobile fire groups and some servicemen whose current employment is not related to combat tasks. "The situation on the line of combat collision is difficult, and now the main thing is to keep the front.

To fulfill this priority task and aim to transfer to the combat units of some servicemen of the rear units," - said in the General Staff. The military leadership of Ukraine at first noted that the number of enemy air goals has not decreased, and the air defense of the Armed Forces of the Armed Forces continues to fulfill its tasks qualitatively.
