Small Arms Survey 186d ago

On 10 December 2025, the Small Arms Survey and the Center for Security Studies 'CENSS' held an event for the launch of a new report titled 'Weapons Compass: Proliferation and Control of Arms and Ammunition in Wartime Ukraine' The Report analyses small arms proliferation and control efforts in Ukraine since the Russian full-scale invasion in February 2022. Using a mixed-methods approach, a team of Ukrainian and international researchers collected and analysed data from multiple sources to triangulate the findings. The Report also outlines policy observations for the Ukrainian government and its partners, from immediate priorities during wartime to medium-term supportive efforts and long-term structural reforms. The event featured presentations by the report’s authors, followed by a discussion with Ukrainian practitioners on the policy implications of the key findings.
