What payments do military personnel receive and what rewards are provided for them during martial law and why soldiers in the same brigade or battalion can receive significantly different payments. Defense Minister Oleksiy Reznikov explained the reasons in a video message to the defenders and defenders of Ukraine.

For fighters directly involved in hostilities, an additional remuneration is provided, which is determined at the rate of 100 thousand hryvnia per month. Or about 3000 UAH. in a day.

Based on combat orders and instructions issued by the military command of various structures of the defense forces, statistics are created on the number of days that a soldier spent in battle and performed combat missions..

“Payments are divided into two parts, because the amount of the monthly allowance is known. It's almost the same every month. And the amount of additional remuneration based on the results of the month, the financial services of the units should be calculated on the basis of combat orders. The more days a soldier spends in combat, the more additional reward he will receive.. This amount can vary significantly every month,” Reznikov said..

He added that it should be understood that individual units of a particular brigade may be in battle.. While others are at the point of permanent deployment, undergoing coordination or performing other non-combat tasks.

Therefore, within the same brigade or even battalion, the amount of payments can vary significantly. It all depends on combat orders.

The Minister also promised that the next such appeal would be regarding monetary allowances and payments to the wounded.. And also about payments to the families of our dead soldiers.
