Ukraine’s digital identity app Diia has been growing despite the turmoil caused by the country’s war with Russia. Around 70 percent of its citizens now have the digital ID, which is used for storing biometric passports, tax IDs and driver’s licenses, accessing public services — and even sharing military intelligence: Users can send the geolocation of enemy tanks through the app.

The figure was shared last Thursday by Australia’s Ambassador of Ukraine to Australia Vasyl Myroshnychenko, trade publication InnovationAus reports.

The app also broke a three-year-record after enrolling more than 26,000 new individual entrepreneurs during September, the Ukrainian Ministry for Innovation, Education, Science and Technology Development announced this month per Ukrinform. Minister Mykhailo Fedorov shared in a post on Telegram that the registration of individual entrepreneurs in Diia is now fully automatic and fast.
