In the Belgorod, Bryansk and Kursk regions, Bars detachments are being created as part of the Russian Armed Forces. This was announced today by the Deputy Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, Colonel-General Yunus-Bek Yevkurov.

Yevkurov checked the progress of the formation of the volunteer detachment "Bars-Kursk" during a trip to the troops of the Moscow Military District.

"We are creating Bars detachments in all three border regions (Belgorod, Bryansk and Kursk), we have named them Bars-Kursk, Bars-Belgorod and Bars-Bryansk. The main task of these detachments is to assist the Governor's operational headquarters and through the CTO to solve the problems that are currently arising, including with weapons in hand and without weapons. These are issues related to the evacuation of the population, assistance in firefighting. If with weapons, then this is the protection of important communications, life-supporting facilities. The preparation itself, what I have just seen, in principle, requires further development, taking into account the fact that a lot of time is devoted to shooting, and there should be other things, including specific ones. To do this, some educational facilities need to be completed," Yevkurov said.

The units that are being formed as part of the Russian Armed Forces will also, together with law enforcement agencies, perform tasks of protecting and defending civilian infrastructure facilities, combating drones and maintaining public order under the conditions of a counter-terrorism operation. Now, according to Yevkurov, intensive training and training of personnel of volunteer detachments is underway.

Today Yevkurov met with the acting Governor of the Kursk region Alexei Smirnov. They discussed the issues of providing and training volunteers for the detachment, and also signed an agreement between the Ministry of Defense and the regional administration on cooperation in the order of manning this detachment, its provision and use.

"We are glad that there is an active movement for liberation. All regional assistance is provided and will be provided. The tasks of creating the "Bars" detachments are being solved. There are quite a large number of people who want to protect their home, help the Rosgvardiya, the police," Alexei Smirnov said, in turn.

Prior to that, Yevkurov visited Bryansk, where he also checked the training of volunteers of the Bars-Bryansk unit, according to the Ministry of Defense.
