Syrskyi notes that shortly before Easter, in the course of his work, he met and listened to a number of Ukrainian commanders, key brigade headquarters officials and heads of different services on the front, and made all the necessary decisions on the ground to support combat operations and replenish stocks of military equipment and ammunition.
The general stressed that only by staying ahead of the Russians in the use of hightech weapons, increasing the number and quality of robotic platforms and remotely operated modules, and adopting the use of artificial intelligence will the defence forces be able to effectively destroy Russian forces that have a numerical advantage.
