The Ministry of Digital Transformation will restrict military access to gambling using a special mechanism.
This was reported by the press service of the department.
“We continue our systematic fight against gambling addiction. Our goal is to protect military personnel and families from the risks and consequences of gaming addiction,” the report says.
Thus, the Ministry of Digital Affairs, together with the Ministry of Defense, is preparing a mechanism that will block military access to gambling for the period of martial law.
The ministry explained that upon login, the system will check the user against the register of persons with restricted access to gambling and the register of military personnel.
It is emphasized that there will be no data leak. The organizer will not be able to see the status of the military member, as the system will only transmit the fact of the restriction.
“The gambling market regulator — the state agency PlayCity — is responsible for implementing the mechanism,” the department added.
It was previously reported that every day Ukrainians spend about 400 million hryvnias on gambling .
