Ukraine’s Interior Minister Ihor Klymenko has announced that 90% of the personnel of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine and the National Police of Ukraine have been booked.
“10% of the SES employees have a choice to be mobilized to the Armed Forces of Ukraine, the National Guard or the State Border Guard Service. 10% of police officers who are subject to mobilization can join the “Rage” brigade or the three additional combat brigades of the National Police of Ukraine,” Klymenko wrote on Telegram on Friday.
He also noted that according to a resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, the number of conscripted employees of the State Emergency Service and the National Police who are subject to reservation may exceed 50% by a separate decision of the Minister of Defense, made on the basis of a substantiated request from the Minister of the Interior. In this regard, an agreed decision was made to reserve 90% of the personnel of the SES and the National Police.
“As for the rescuers, our position is that the employees of the rapid response units (firefighters, sappers, rescuers, chemists, engineers, etc.) should be booked in full.
This decision will not affect the efficiency and effectiveness of the SES,” Klymenko said.

French President Emmanuel Macron has announced the delivery of the first series of Mirage 2000 aircraft to Ukraine, the start of training for pilots and mechanics of these aircraft, as well as a full training course for the personnel of one military brigade.
“We are announcing the delivery of the first series of Mirage 2000 aircraft and the start of training for attack pilots and mechanics to maintain these aircraft. We have decided that France will fully equip and train the personnel of a full brigade as part of the efforts to regenerate the Ukrainian forces,” Macron said during a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Paris on Friday evening.
In addition, he noted that “all the equipment that was transferred (to Ukraine – IF-U), in particular, Scalp missiles, A2SM surface-to-air bombs, is what helped to change the situation in Ukraine on the battlefield.”
Macron also announced a project to organize the production of ammunition in Ukraine with the participation of a French company.
Later, at a press conference, answering media questions about the number of Mirage 2000 aircraft that France would be providing to Ukraine, Macron said: “I will not give you a number, nor partners, nor a figure, just to be effective.”
The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has supported a resolution that will allow employees to be booked through the Diia mobile app, said Mykhailo Fedorov, Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.
“Now, to book an employee, you need to submit applications in paper form, collect signatures and wait for weeks for the result. “Diia will change this. The process will be fast, transparent, and without a human factor, and the result will be in an hour,” Fedorov wrote on Telegram on Friday evening.
According to him, “we will tentatively launch the service in early July.” The minister also said that at the first stage, critical enterprises and companies working for the needs of the defense forces will be able to book their employees online.
“If a business or government agency is eligible for booking, the manager will submit lists of employees through the Diia portal and electronically sign the application.
Next, Diia will automatically check the registers to see if the person is officially employed and if there is any data about him or her in Oberiz. If everything is okay, the employee is booked. The whole process will take an hour. The manager will receive a response about the employee’s booking in the Diia portal, and the person’s information will be updated in Reserve+. If they want to receive a paper confirmation, they will also have this option. And both formats are equally valid. If the reservation is denied, the manager will receive a response in his or her account on the Diia portal,” said Fedorov.
On Friday evening, the government’s website published Resolution No. 650 “Some issues of booking conscripts during martial law” of June 5, which instructs the Ministry of Digital Transformation, the Ministry of Defense, and the Ministry of Justice to ensure electronic information interaction between the Unified State Web Portal of Electronic Services within a month, the Unified State Register of Conscripts, Persons Liable for Military Service and Reservists, and the Unified State Register of Legal Entities and Individuals of Public Organizations (EDRPOU) in real time to ensure effective interaction with them in real time.
In addition, the Pension Fund of Ukraine and the Ministry of Defense must ensure electronic information interaction between the register of insured persons of the State Register of Compulsory State Social Insurance and the Unified State Register of Conscripts, Persons Liable for Military Service and Reservists regarding employees of enterprises, institutions and organizations aged 17 to 60 years and their positions applying for reservation in real time to make reservations in electronic form within one month.
The Pension Fund must also ensure that this information is received electronically through its e-services web portal from state agencies, local governments, enterprises, institutions and organizations within a month.
