Korniychuk said that the timing of the installation of the warning system was not successful, because Ukraine is in a state of war.
Israel will help Ukraine install a warning system for the civilian population about the approach of Russian missiles within four months. This is what Ukrainian Ambassador to Israel Yevhen Korniychuk said in an interview with The Times of Israel.
According to him, the timing of the installation of the warning system was not successful, because Ukraine is in a state of war.
“We have been talking about this publicly for six months. This is not something we are talking about in secret. We promised that we would receive it, but we still haven’t received it,” the ambassador said.
He noted that the initial deployment will be pilot and, at best, will cover an entire city, such as Kyiv.
Remember, according to Korniychuk, later the early warning project will be expanded to other regions.
He also said that Jerusalem would provide Ukraine with $200 million in loan guarantees for the construction of medical and other civilian facilities.
As Israeli politician Zeev Elkin said, the decision to move the warning system has been stalled for the past month and a half, but continues to move forward.
“Our warning system is so precisely designed that it can warn about shelling precisely – when a siren sounds in one area of the city and people should go to the shelters, and in another area people sitting in a cafe. In Ukraine, this will greatly improve the quality of life for people,” he said.
Elkin added that delivery will take three to six months.
“We believe that three months is the maximum and there is an opportunity to do it faster, and we will advance this issue through the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Commission, headed by Yuli Edelstein,” the politician said.
Recall that the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in a press conference on February 24 hinted at improving relations with Israel.
