Kyiv opens forum in bid to produce more arms

KYIV: Ukraine hosted on Friday an international defense industry conference as part of its effort to ramp up production of weapons inside the country to repel Russia's invasion and reduce dependence on foreign arms deliveries.

The event marked a new development in support of Kyiv, with the previous focus being on the delivery of weapons, repair of damaged equipment and military training of Ukrainian soldiers.
