The Mayor of Kyiv, Vitaliy Klitschko, celebrated the New Year 2026 with soldiers at the front, visiting 13 units in the Kharkiv direction and Donbas. During the visit, he delivered 29,270 drones to Ukrainian defenders, as well as other equipment aimed at supporting them in their fight.

Equipment Delivered to the Military

Among the delivered equipment are drones of various models, including:

  • FPV
  • Autel Evo
  • Mavic night and day
  • heavy bombers

In addition to drones, Klitschko delivered:

  • tractors
  • excavators
  • 12 cars (pickups)
  • electronic warfare systems
  • drone detectors
  • radio stations of various types
  • mobile tire fitting station
'Our defenders send greetings to everyone for the New Year! Traditionally, I celebrate it with soldiers at the front. This time I visited a total of 13 units in the Kharkiv direction and Donbas.' Vitaliy Klitschko

He also emphasized that 'as much as we can, we support our defenders. Tired, sleepless, under constant enemy fire, in the frost and snow, far from their families, they heroically fight. For our free future, for our state.'

It should be noted that on December 4, the Kyiv City Council adopted changes to the program 'Support for Kyiv residents - defenders' and approved the capital budget for 2026 at over 106 billion UAH.

This visit by Klitschko highlights the importance of supporting Ukrainian soldiers in difficult times when the country continues to fight for its independence. The equipment delivered, particularly drones, is crucial for modern combat, as it ensures the effectiveness of reconnaissance and strike operations. Additionally, the changes in the support program for defenders indicate the growing attention of local authorities to the needs of the military and their families.
