The Ukrainian defenders received cars and attack drones from the Vinnytsia community. The Interregional Humanitarian Coordination Center reported about this on October 25. The soldiers from the 14th Chervona Kalyna Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine and another military unit in Vinnytsia received eight pickup trucks to support mobile AA fire teams.

The 14th Brigade has also received an unmanned aerial vehicle system Pegasus, which consists of three drones. "According to Andrii, the officer of the 14th Chervona Kalyna Brigade, Pegasus are three powerful quadcopters, the effectiveness of which is much higher than conventional FPV drones," the Interregional Humanitarian Coordination Center said. This system has a 14-kilometer strike zone and is capable of carrying loads weighing up to 14 kg, reaching a maximum speed of 120 km, and staying in the air for 45 minutes.
It is also resistant to enemy electronic warfare. "With such characteristics, the Pegasus drone gives our guys the ability to work more effectively on the enemy and carry out remote mining," said the officer of the 14th Chervona Kalyna Brigade.
