The situation with the mobilized men and their equipment is rapidly improving. Regional authorities are getting involved, activists and concerned individuals are taking part. There is a response from civil society.

This reaction very uplifting indeed.
But unfortunately, when there is a shortage of personal body armor, even products that objectively do not have the proper level of quality are being purchased.

Mobilized men from Crimea and Sevastopol were issued a Modul-Monolit "bulletproof vests" and Kolpak-20 protective helmets. To understand what these are,we suggest watching a review where these products get shot through.
π»In brief: the "bulletproof vest" can be fully penetrated by a standard 5.45 caliber steel-core bullet and absolutely does not offer the claimed level of protection.
A hit from a pistol on the "protective helmet" will cause one's head to burst.

We would like to believe that those who made the decision to supply our comrades with these products were misled by the suppliers and the situation will be rectified.
Update: the situation is not so clear.
