During the audit of the property, the Southern Military District of Sweden discovered the disappearance of almost all the equipment stored in the warehouse of the training center in the city of Ystad, which was on the balance sheet of the non-profit organization Försvarsutbildarna Ystad.

As indicated in the Sydsvenskan publication, in the late 1990s, in the context of a significant reduction in the country's armed forces, military property was transferred to such voluntary societies. In exchange, volunteer organizations were supposed to provide assistance, for example, in case of emergencies.

Most of the equipment is gone

- stated in the Southern Military District of Sweden.

This is 7 thousand items. The largest losses include 70 military vehicles, including twin-link all-terrain vehicles, SUVs and patrol boats, as well as 50 electric generators.

In October 2023, the Försvarsutbildarna Ystad organization was accused of transferring several military ambulances to Ukraine. This happened through an excluded member of the society, through a forged signature and without the approval of the Swedish Armed Forces.

However, the volunteer association denies all charges. After the investigation began, it was transformed into a new society, the Fredriksberg Emergency Preparedness Center. His management explained that it consists of selfless people who could not engage in deception, the size of the missing materiel was exaggerated, the keys to the warehouse had to be handed over back in 2023, and it is unknown who was looking after him.

In some cases, military property may have been written off, in others it may have disappeared earlier. But we are ready to discuss it.

- the volunteers noted.
