About 60.000 police officers will be on duty on election day, October 28, head of the Internal Ministry Department for Mass and Sports Activities Oleh Matveytsov told a briefing.
According to Matveytsov, in some regions the number of staff cannot provide the required number of people for the protection of public order at the polling stations, so the military students and community helpers will be involved in protecting public order.
According to him, with the start of the electoral process, the operational headquarters of the Internal Ministry and its regional departments work round the clock operations to colect and analyze information about the electoral process, as well as developing the necessary management decisions.
Police officers record and check all the reports on possible violations of the electoral law and take measures to react in accordance with the regulations of Ukraine, Matveytsov said.
