Additionally, the police uncovered 129 enemy sabotage and reconnaissance groups and apprehended over 2,400 people.

Throughout this period, the White Angels police units have safely evacuated almost 10,000 people from hazardous areas, including over 2,200 children.

“Today, the police are responsible for both maintaining domestic security and defending against the enemy on the frontline. The National Police's joint assault brigade, known as Liut [lit. Fury], is a part of the Offensive Guard and is currently deployed in the most dangerous areas of the frontline to protect our freedom,” the ministry said.

Four police officers were awarded the title of Hero of Ukraine for their bravery.
