Pavlo Konopko, first deputy head of the region's military administration, said this in a post on Facebook, Ukrinform reports.

"At the behest of the head of the regional military administration, Andrii Raykovych, we involved Canadian volunteers in Ukraine's national resistance. We thank the diaspora of Ukrainians in Canada: nine new Toyota pickups are already on their way to Kropyvnytskyi," the post reads.
