Following the annexation of Crimea by Russia, only 10 ships remained with the Naval Forces of Ukraine - more than 50 were captured by the Russian occupiers. This fact is largely the reason for launching the project.
All money collected by the “Refitting Netishyn” project will be spent exclusively on materials needed and some tools. By prior arrangement, The People’s Project volunteers and the Council have brought a number of Mykolaiv enterprises on board and all repair and restoration work will be done on a free-of-charge basis (which in turn will be specified in detail within the project reporting).
In addition, the volunteers will give anyone the opportunity to personally observe the repairs as they happen. To do this, the dry dock will have CCTV cameras installed that will broadcast the ship’s repair around-the-clock. This will begin as soon as the ship arrives for repair and reconstruction work at the dock.
Earlier The People’s Project used the money collected to deliver to the crew of Netishyn a system for identifying other vessels, a navigation system, an outboard motor for a service boat and first aid kits. However the ship now, more than ever, needs our help.
Today, in Ukraine there is an acute shortage of military ships. After the annexation of Crimea a considerable number of ships were inherited by the aggressor – the “Kostiantyn Olshansky” transport vessel, the patrol ship “Slavutych,” corvettes, minesweepers, and many others were left to the enemy.
That is why there’s an urgent need to revive all the ships that remain on Ukrainian territory to fully-equip the navy equipment, including the ship Netishyn.
