0

The total volume of things that citizens can take with them to BZVP is limited to 50 liters, the Drone Force recruiting center emphasized.

It is better not to take a warm blanket, for example, because it simply will not fit in a backpack.

When Ukrainians enter a training center for basic military training (BZVP), they can be sure that they will be given basic equipment at the training ground in the military unit. At the same time, they should bring personal hygiene items, metal utensils, and other small items that will make their stay more comfortable. Ihor Ryzhankov, a representative of the Drone Force Recruiting Center of the Land Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, spoke about the things that should be prepared for BZVP in a video on the Facebook page.

The post explains that all citizens, both mobilized and volunteers, must undergo basic military training in training centers when joining the army. Most of what is needed for service in the army is issued by the state. At the same time, there are things that are worth bringing with you. However, it is important to remember that they must fit into a backpack with a volume of 40-50 liters. On the other hand, you should not rush into purchasing ammunition, for example, a plate carrier. Already during the BZVP, a person will understand what is more convenient for him personally, Drone Force emphasized.

“All the basic basic ammunition and basic weapons, everything is issued. But the little things, the ones I listed above, will make your passage through the BZVP more comfortable,” — the words of recruiter Igor Ryzhankov in the video.
