Quote: "In January, total enemy losses killed and seriously wounded amounted to more than 31.7 thousand personnel, which exceeded the volume of its personnel replenishment.

This is the result of combat work, which significantly reduced the enemy's offensive capabilities. And this is result forged in our training centres.

So, we are working on further improving the quality of training. I heard reports from heads of training centres on implementation of a programme of adapting recruits at training ranges, organisation of air cover for training locations, construction and equipping of shelters.

In addition, we must raise the bar and achieve better indicators regarding the level of instructors and their attitude to their work, as well as equipping of training centres and grounds, safety and social and living conditions.

Therefore, I set a task to strengthen oversight of the condition of training centres and quality of training both in training centres and in brigades".

Details: General noted that as part of oversight it is necessary to continue auditing the quality of basic combined-arms training, which has been regularly conducted since autumn 2025 in training units and combat brigades.
