Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov has signed an urgent telegram to increase the financial security of the military from March 1.

This is reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the official website of the Ministry of Defense.

Salaries of servicemen will increase by 30%. The change in salaries will apply to absolutely all military personnel who have not yet received an increase this year.

"Even last year we undertook the obligation to begin in 2022 to raise the salaries of servicemen. This is only the first step. We are working further. Glory to Ukraine, as well as its defenders and defenders!", - said Reznikov.

The minister's decision provides for the establishment of a monthly bonus and an increase in the allowance for the peculiarities of military service.

If the increase in pay after taking into account all allowances will remain less than 30%, the commanders will be obliged to increase the monthly bonus until the specified growth rate.

Recall that Kharkiv was shelled by cluster missiles - three cadets were wounded.
