Chairman of the Kharkov Regional State Administration Igor Baluta told reporters about this today in Slavyansk.
According to him, teams will be created from among the volunteers and trained about 100 grenade launcher groups and 20 groups of shooters from man-portable anti-aircraft missile systems.
He stated that the first selection for the groups took place on September 7 on Freedom Square in Kharkov at the initiative of the public and with the support of the regional state administration: people got acquainted with Kalashnikov assault rifles and Makarov pistols.
