President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy held a meeting of the Staff of the Supreme Commander-in-Chief, with contracts for producing protection systems for critical infrastructure and logistics among the key issues discussed. The participants also reviewed in detail the needs of Ukrzaliznytsia, gas station networks, and specific critical enterprises that are particularly significant targets for Russian strikes.
“Intelligence provided clear data on where Russia is concentrating most of its terrorist efforts under its approved plans. We have solutions for protection in place. In particular, we will significantly strengthen the electronic warfare capabilities and increase procurement volumes – the contracts have been confirmed. The work of designated mobile fire groups and air defense lines will also be reorganized,” the Head of State said.
The President instructed the Ministry of Finance to allocate additional resources for logistics needs.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked all the partners working with Ukraine to keep railway operations running without interruption. During the Staff meeting, they discussed the challenges and possible joint steps with partners to strengthen logistics security in border areas adjacent to EU countries and Moldova.
A separate report focused on Ukrzaliznytsia’s capacity to repair rolling stock and equipment supplies.
“It's important that partner support for Ukrzaliznytsia continues, and that state-owned banks support it as well. The Government of Ukraine is preparing decisions on backup logistics routes in frontline regions, and algorithms for combining rail and bus routes have been developed,” the Head of State emphasized.
During the meeting, the tasks for protecting designated critical infrastructure facilities were updated. The details are not public
