Parade of new Ukrainian-made equipment held on Kyiv streets, in the sky and on water at dawn
Military equipment, including Ukrainian-made ground robotic systems Termit and Rys PRO and an evacuation vehicle, drove along Khreshchatyk St.
On Monday morning, a parade featuring Ukrainian-made military equipment took place in the streets of Kyiv. The parade, which occurred without prior notice and at dawn on Independence Day, featured several dozen wheeled and tracked vehicles. The route stretched along Khreshchatyk St. in the capital's central district, but no spectators were present.
The footage of the event was broadcast during a ceremony marking the 35th anniversary of Ukrainian Independence, which took place in the afternoon with President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and foreign dignitaries in attendance.
Later that same early morning, a different display of military might unfolded on the Dnipro River. Magura, Sargan, and SeaBaby sea drones navigated a section of the river opposite the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra. Simultaneously, P1-Sun interceptor drones were launched into the sky. The aerial spectacle continued throughout the day, with dozens of drones of various designs - both fixed-wing and manned fighter jets - flying at high altitude over Kyiv.
