there is only one goal: choose your specialty and fill out the questionnaire on the national guard website. we will win together. finding yourself in new circumstances is a challenge that thousands of defenders are overcoming. to help them in this process, the state created a grant program for veterans and their family members, which is implemented by the ministry of economy of ukraine. an application for a veteran's grant is submitted. easy and convenient through action. apply and receive up to uah 1 million to start or develop your own business. we will be there on christmas night. chat thoughts in the family circle. from now on, together with the entire christian world , we celebrate christmas together on december 25.

the only main thing on the air is the we ukraine channel and lyudmila dobrovolska and oleg panyuta are with you. good evening, and today we will talk about these topics. will kyiv receive american aid, the approval of which the white house is so waiting for from congress, what are the chances and should we wait for the package to be unblocked until christmas. russian missiles and spralok drones. we will tell and show the truth and myths about enemy weapons inside the russian ironclad. how do they work? those who protect our sky? the we ukraine channel went on night duty together with the shahhead hunters. our exclusive. at that time, the russians attacked in six directions, and most of all in avdiivskyi. here, ours repelled 35 enemy attacks, with which the muscovites. with artillery and

mortars, with the support of aviation, they are trying to break through the defense of the zso. about 10 settlements are under artillery and mortar fire in the kupinsky direction. the occupiers strike from the sky in the areas of serebryansk forestry in luhansk region and serebryanka in donetsk region, strike aircraft in in the area of ​​the temporary ravine, gulyai pole and kherson are constantly shelled from mortars. operational situation on the fronts. let's see. in these shots , soldiers of the third separate assault brigade , under heavy fire from enemy artillery, repulse russian assaults in the direction of bakhmut. the sounds of cannonade from both sides do not stop. on the outskirts of bakhmut, heavy shooting battles continue, in military terminology at a distance.

there is no stable front line, the constantly changing position of infantry groups operating in an urbanized area is difficult to coordinate them, units of the armed forces do everything to stabilize the front line and clearly, clearly understand where the enemy is. they throw everything they have at the assaults, our positions are heavily bombarded by artillery, but technology is used less now, they are protected. explain the military, instead, they send into battle hordes of infantrymen, who have not been counted in russia for a long time, from 400 to 700 shells can be fired in just one direction, that is, this indicates that they have a sufficient number of shells and artillery, but they are used less still techniques, because they save it, but they bet more precisely on human resources for small assault groups, if only a few weeks ago the russians attacked the qualifiers. the enemy

still does not feel a shortage of people, but the quality of these people is definitely lower, they are no longer so stable under fire, they do not always accept it normally during a shooting battle, that is, we see that people from the other side also deploy, run away from time to time , bloody and heavy battles continue near avdiivka, the russians. continue to advance from three directions in order to break through our line of defense and surround the city, in the promzolna area, in the koksukhim area and in many other places, let's say, where the enemy is trying to throw infantry forward, battles of varying intensity. aviation is actively dropping controlled aerial bombs, the enemy is using artillery and traditionally bets on infantry. the occupiers concentrated up to 40,000 people in the avdiiv direction. composition, they are

absolutely on all flanks, including the frontal attack on avdiivka, i mean, they go at the same time, but they throw these groups so that... to divert attention and technology, let's say , we do not observe ourselves, these killed, destroyed, are lying in the fields, as the institute for the study of war writes, putin gave the order to take an audio recorder for the presidential elections in the russian federation, which will be held in march 2024 , in order to enter the administrative offices of the donetsk region at any price, have such intentions to enter by a certain date. because their commanders are behaving so well, sending these meaty assaults, well, i don't know how to describe it, you can say crazy, these people are trying to hide behind

corpses, in order to somehow survive, they have almost no food, and they are even forced to eat just snow. putin's task after avdiivka is to take kupyansk, the study institute reports. so the assaults on the lyman-kupyansk direction do not stop. the enemy delivered 17 evolutionary strikes to the village of termysela, using 16 kamikaze drones and 477 artillery barrages, they are betting on human assaults, the loss of about 11,000 servicemen in the month of november is only in the direction of the group's responsibility. hortex discussed the situation in the kupyan, lyman, and donetsk directions, as well as in the south, during the commander-in-chief's strike. the task of our state, even now in winter, no matter how difficult it may be, is to show strength and not give the enemy, seize the initiative, prevent them from gaining a foothold. and our

military is doing everything possible. in our section of the front, where our brigade is holding, all positions are in our hands. our soldiers, our defenders for... the defenders steadfastly hold the defense both on avdiivskyi, on marinskyi, and also in the mining direction and actively they are operating in the direction of melitopol, inflicting maximum losses on the enemy, but at what cost, all the boys, bro, i won't crawl, crawl, bald poros, frost! crawl and you will crawl, come on! daryna dobrovolska, we are ukraine, marathon, only news! the occupiers shelled kupyansk, two women were killed and another man was wounded. it was hot during the day in the kherson region, where one person died and three were injured. in beryslav, the occupiers

used a drone to drop explosives. worked at one of the enterprises of kherson, warehouses, cars were on fire there, all the products burned to the ground... russians and residential quarters, a woman was injured, private houses were damaged. 61 billion for military and financial aid, whether kyiv receives them from a joint package of additional funding for ukraine, israel and taiwan, the approval of which the white house is still waiting for from congress. with the beginning of the election campaign in the united states, this question became almost a bargaining chip. a key source of disagreement. between republicans and democrats, which actually inhibits approval aid to ukraine, and there is the issue of protecting the southern border of the united states. so what are the chances of unlocking this pack before christmas? for the third time, despite the existing bipartisan

support of ukraine, the americans could not vote on the aid package. on wednesday , the senate did not find 60 votes to at least procedurally support the bill and proceed to its discussion. we found ourselves hostage to the situation and accordingly we are waiting for agreements within both parties in both houses of congress and accordingly there was a proposal from the democratic senators to start this the process is in the senate, because there are more moderate republicans and more supporters, in particular, the continuation of aid to ukraine from the side of the republic. now they are already looking for a solution both with representatives of the senate and the house of representatives. when and in what form will they vote for a package of aid to ukraine, israel, taiwan and other needs. i urge the president of the united states to pass by christmas. it can't wait. congress must pass additional funding for ukraine before the holiday

break. while congress, republicans in congresses are ready to give putin the biggest gift he could hope for and give up our global leadership, not only in ukraine, but also... outside of it. the stumbling block is not ukraine, internal political strife. republicans refuse to vote on a budget without changes to the united states' immigration policy. why was it mentioned only in the pre-election budget? the question is rather rhetorical, however, without its solution, the republicans will not vote at all. i won't go back to south carolina and try to explain why i helped ukraine, taiwan and israel and did nothing to protect our own border. i will help all our allies, but first we must help ourselves. democrats call it blackmail, not without reason, because in fact it is money for strengthening and building the border. bundled into a single package of nearly $20 billion, along with aid to ukraine, israel and

taiwan, and in addition to funding, republicans are calling for increased vetting of migrants and the resumption of border wall construction, effectively returning to hardline policies trump many republicans have said they want to help ukraine. the only reason they added the border was because a lot of members of their far right pro... have said they want a border, but many of those same members are not going to vote for ukraine no matter what happens there, but the republican leadership has gone well, let's see if they can come to an agreement. is it still possible to find a way out of the impasse? biden said that he is ready for adequate compromises on the border, and the republican leader, who leads the negotiating group heard the signal, the white house is warning again that there is neither time nor money left in the budget direction. aid that the us gives us every month, and now they are not ready to give guarantees whether it will continue. we are unable

to make such a promise to ukraine, given what is happening on the hill. we have a few more weeks and then we will run out of options. if there is no help for a long time, we will potentially have to change the expenses of our budget. this is a last resort if plan b doesn't work. we're working on two ways the first way is to work with european countries, the european union to increase our aid. you saw that germany has doubled its aid to us. on the one hand, on the other hand, we are working to produce as much as possible independently and depend less on our partners, and there is also some progress here. of course i will, if there is a critical situation, then it will be so, i think that other expenditure items will decrease and expenditure items will increase. to the army next year, the deficit of our budget may to make 41 billion, and without american

help, problems may begin, but not immediately in january. regarding the financial part, it is not critical at all. the ministry of finance has a margin of safety. in fact, we have another quarter, at least, when we won't know at all whether american aid is coming or not. it will be felt somewhere closer to the end of the first half of 2024. before the joint production of weapons in the usa , a separate conference was held and a memorandum on cooperation was signed between kyiv and the manufacturers, because own production is a necessity, so that in the future, ukraine did not depend either on supplies or on partners. olena chernyakova, we are ukraine marathon, the only news. reconnaissance drones with spare parts, four additional aristi air defense systems, anti-tank weapons, border patrol cars, 100,000 first-aid kits and medical supplies. automatic grenade launchers and many other goodies were included in the new aid package

announced by germany. let me remind you that during an unannounced visit to kyiv, the head of the german ministry of defense, boris pistorius, announced a military support package worth 1.3 billion euro, and chancellor olaf scholz said that berlin should be ready to do even more for ukraine when other countries support kyiv. weaken i want to clarify, borders in europe no longer move by force, and this is exactly what putin questioned. therefore, i want to say very clearly, we continue to support ukraine in its defense. the transcarpathian regional territorial center of completion considers it legal to serve summonses in sports halls and reminds of the criminal responsibility for evading and obstructing them. turns out, this week social networks are full of messages about the delivery of summonses to visitors and coaches in

uzhgorod, kyiv, lviv, dnipro, and other cities of the country. this does not mean that a person should immediately go to the front. first, there should be an update of data, a medical examination, training. the recruitment centers emphasize that a number of military specialties do not involve direct participation in hostilities at all, but they are indispensable for the army. a list of such specialties is available on the armed forces website. forces of ukraine. let me remind you that the employees of one of the recreation complexes in transcarpathia, after the visit there, the heads of the regional tsc submitted a statement to the law enforcement agencies about the military exceeding their powers and tasks. to visitors and workers of the complex of bodily injuries, according to their statement, people armed with machine guns drove all visitors out of the sauna of the treatment rooms. rockets and drones from washing machines. such messages appear more and more frequently in the mass media regarding

russian weapons. they say, muscovites use it for the production of their technological weapons. electronics with household appliances, is it true, and how can we counter the enemy iron? our vlad palivoda spoke with a military man who researches the captured and defaced weapons of the occupiers, and he is ready to tell what is actually hidden inside the enemy's missiles, drones and artillery, the truth and myths about the latest russian weapons, let's watch while they show off. have we figured out what russian technology actually consists of? all this is completed with russian equipment, which the armed forces of ukraine captured or captured

battlefield our military is carefully studying how rockets, drones, tanks, and artillery work. and you and i now have a unique opportunity to examine them in detail. the captain of the armed forces of ukraine, andriy rudyk, shows us enemy military equipment. access to the place where these trophies are kept is limited, so we bring samples to our studio. andriy represents a military structure that studies what is inside the so-called newest weapons of the occupiers. here we can see various components of electronics, russian trophy weapons and military equipment. andriy microcircuit with cruise missile kh101 is only one of the components of the so-called baguette of the electronic computing machine. what is this component for? it carries out electronic calculations, calculates them and directly transmits them to the on-board computer, for checking, for example, with the coordinates that are set in the rocket and so on, that is, everything related to calculations, this

thing answers. the microcircuit itself with russian marking, inscriptions in cyrillic, but still under construction. foreign-made chips, says the military. there are no russian chips here. they definitely try to replace them there in a certain way, to find out something for themselves there, to establish certain supply channels. but in general, if we are talking about the basic configuration of this missile, i am talking about the kha-101, again, the chips here are mostly of foreign origin. the situation is similar with drones, the main chips for calculation and navigation of information donation, which are in the fsb. checked and most of the important chips here are again foreign-made. when we talk about specific chips that are responsible for encrypting information, here such a chip, here such a chip, they are of foreign origin. and although the russians try to hide the origin of these parts, our military has learned to distinguish them. first, we look at the marking of the chip itself. there, what dates, what serial numbers and so

on, often even companies can be indicated, there can be indicated, again, other different ones. look there soldering. there are cases when the russians also use household chips - says the military, but emphasizes the expression: the weapon is made from washing machines, it should be taken more carefully. people used to think there from the washing machine, screw everything there in its original form into the rocket, well , maybe you will think that it will replace you, well, this rocket will either simply not take off according to those coordinates, or it will explode on the spot, because the task will be there is distorted, russians use foreign technology in almost all equipment, optical devices, navigation and guidance systems, but the russians try to get such details from different parts of the world, mostly by smuggling, - says a military expert. something is produced at some enterprise, well, for example, there in to the united states, they cannot not sell at all, they produce what to sell inside the country and abroad, well

, they bought some country, well, any place in latin america, so there are no sanctions, what, what not... they will sell, they sold, then she resold somewhere in africa, and from africa there to iran, including, and then she got to russia, well, for example, it is extremely difficult to trace such supply schemes, says the expert, but perhaps for this we need the help of western partners, to words in the usa stole a network organized in belgium of companies supplying military goods to the russian federation, in particular, sanctions were imposed against a network of companies engaged in the procurement of electronics for the russian army. vladyslav palivoda, we are ukraine, marathon, united. we will show how our soldiers shoot down russian missiles and combat drones a little later. together with the hunters , they went on night duty. our colleague lyudmila gavryliuk. you will see such footage for the first time. this is our exclusive. wait. well, when we

argue that at +18-20° in our homes we are freezing, it would be worth remembering at this moment, it is obvious what the temperature is in shantsy at this moment. of course, our fighters are able to arrange comfort almost everywhere, but the main word here is "almost". because... the ability to do this is not everywhere and not always, so how do the armed forces feel with the onset of cold weather? about the daily life and life of our soldiers in the winter trenches? lyudmila gavrylyuk. i used to run with these, with loads, got it? three kilogram. a generation in heavy mud, in a cold dugout, these are the realities of life on the front lines. this is avdiivka, one of the hottest destinations. fighters of the 47th separate mechanized brigade are fighting here, they say the biggest one they had now.

and such difficult conditions along the entire front line, now there is not a single warm and safe place in the positions. on the street. it's cold, it's snowing, it's raining, it's freezing , it's very humid, it's very difficult to sit in the trenches , everything is very difficult, but despite all this, we stand and will continue to stand. even in winter , drones are needed on the front lines, say the military. the boys are now fighting in the direction of bakhmut, gathering for mavik. the goal is half a million hryvnias. you can see the data right now on the screen. thanks to your support. thanks to your faith in us, believe in the armed forces, help us, help with donations, help with anything, every help is very important. and in

such extremely difficult conditions , the wounded are now being evacuated, cars are often loaded in wet ground. come on, come on, come on, come on. winter is now creeping along the entire front line, the military says that after the rain, the trenches are full of water, in the evening it all freezes, is covered with ice, where there is an opportunity to build a dugout , of course, it is being built, and if there is no such opportunity, of course, what about in the evening the temperature drops, the temperature drops to the minus, accordingly, the infantrymen change on duty, because, of course, you should not light a fire at the front, because

it immediately unmasks you and the enemy can fire at you there or simply throw artillery with mortars. in such cold conditions it is almost impossible to keep warm, a fighter with the call sign demon serves in the capital's air defense, and he says that even the special defense does not keep warm, especially on night shifts. in the ground the plate in the armor freezes so that even if you have 10 jackets under the armor, it works like a refrigerator, i.e. it is impossible to warm up, that is, you will freeze in any case, fighting and advancing in such conditions is also another test, in addition to the constant cold, you have to repel enemy attacks. of course, such weather conditions are not very effective for artillery, for example, enemy artillery. the impact of enemy artillery shelling, as it happened, it happened , that is, from 500 to 600 shellings in just one day, for ukrainian soldiers, of course, it is difficult,

but they all understand that if it is not their job, if not to protect against them, then this influx can advance further, but still at the front they are waiting for frost, because it is on frozen ground that heavy machinery can drive, say the military, and then we will be able to move forward. ludomila havryliuk, ukraine, marathon, single news. due to the degrammatization and flooding of the tunnels of the blue branch of the kyiv metro, the prime minister convenes a meeting of the state commission on technological and environmental safety and emergency situations. they must find out the danger of the destruction of the capital's underground and how to prevent it. a video of how the water went to kolia has already been posted on the network. so far, six stations from libidska will work to terymki. only as a shelter, and in order to stabilize city traffic, the routes of ground transport have been changed. from the last massive missile attack on dnipropetrovsk region.
