The Ministry of Defense and the NGO DeepStateUA have signed a Memorandum of Cooperation. The goal is to ensure data exchange to strengthen the Armed Forces of Ukraine with up-to-date information.
This was reported by the Ministry of Defense's press service.
DeepStateUA is an analytical project that provides information on the course of the Russian-Ukrainian war through an interactive online map of hostilities.
DeepStateMap.Live allows tracking changes in the front line and the course of military actions and contains markings regarding the status of various territories: occupied, liberated, recently liberated, or gray areas.
"The Ministry of Defense is interested in using the best practices of IT projects to increase the defense capability of the state. Cooperation with DeepStateUA will allow for the rapid and efficient accumulation and processing of the necessary data on the course of military actions," said Katerina Chernogorenko, Deputy Minister of Defense.
As Roman Pogorily, co-founder of the DeepStateUA project, pointed out, various services and military personnel are currently using the project's map in their work. "Together with the Ministry of Defense, we will be able to work more effectively for our common victory," he added.
