let's go, where, there, come on, chris, on december 17 during a routine inspection of the premises. in one of the places of deployment of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine , general valery zaluzhnyi , elements of equipment for removing information were discovered. eavesdropping devices were installed in the offices intended for the work of the commander-in-chief and the employees of his support apparatus. this is reported by the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. in order to establish the circumstances of the specified event, its consequences and the persons involved in it, the security service of ukraine was notified. sbu opened criminal proceedings.

upon the discovery of a technical device in one of the commander-in-chief's locations, it is opened under article 359, part two of the criminal code of ukraine, illegal acquisition, use of sales or special technical means of obtaining information, provides for a penalty of four to seven years of imprisonment. according to the preliminary data of the special service, the discovered device was not working. any means of accumulating information or means of remote. no audio transmissions detected. this is technical the device will be sent for examination. employees of the sbu carry out all measures prescribed by law to investigate this offense, according to the message of the sbu. the investigation must establish all the circumstances of the attempted illegal wiretapping of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine , general valery zaluzhny, but it is obvious that only those could install a listening device in the room where ukraine's military operations are being discussed. who is trying

to hinder the ukrainian resistance to the enemy through the use of secret information received in confidential conditions. resistance to russian aggression, the course of hostilities, relations with partners, military aid, priorities and challenges for ukraine in 2024, these are the main topics of the press conference of president volodymyr zelensky, which took place on december 19 in kyiv. according to the president... ukraine did not achieve the desired results during the counteroffensive. we wanted to get faster results. from this point of view, unfortunately, we did not achieve the desired results. and this is a fact - said volodymyr zelenskyi. further strategy of ukraine will remain unchanged. the entire territory of the state must be freed from the enemy. as for the tactics, they can change taking into account the experience gained. at the same time , several times the president refused to tell journalists the details of further actions.

referring to their secrecy and the propriety of keeping the plans secret. russia did not achieve any results this year, i am not characterizing the last year, the 22nd, i am talking about the 23rd year, any of these goals, this, by the way, is proven by the fact that the messages of the kremlin have not changed, that in of them, the goals of the svo are unchanging, but the goals were clear, the occupation of our state, and the main thing... then the goal, which they themselves changed in their rhetoric, is the access to the administrative borders of the ukrainian donbas, they did not achieve this goal, therefore there is nothing to talk about defeats, russia did not achieve a single, not a single victory , what three days, two years there , our fighters are well done, people are well done, i am once again grateful to them for that, the president also spoke about weapons, this winter several new patriot air defense systems will protect ukraine, - said volodymyr zelen. answering one of

the questions. he did not say which one the number goes until they are in ukraine, just noted that this is a powerful new package. another piece of news related to drones and artillery: our soldiers will receive domestic drones in their brigades. regarding the production of a million drones next year, we will produce a million, well, we will do everything to make it so, i know that it will be so. as for the artillery, the artillery will increase, the 155 caliber system, unfortunately, it is still very difficult with shots, a very scarce product, the systems are understood, here lines need to be added, and it is very difficult, there is a shortage of gunpowder, etc., many different issues, you need to work on it, you cannot relax, in the conditions of an unstable situation with the provision of further assistance from partners... the development of

your own military industry is more important. the global task facing ukraine is to reduce dependence on western weapons by building the capabilities of its own military-industrial complex. in the osuf-odesa area of ​​responsibility in the kherson direction, our soldiers will continue to occupy positions on the left bank dnipro, conduct a counter-battery fight, inflict fire damage on the rear of the enemy. colonel natalya humanyuk, spokeswoman for the defense forces of the south, also talked about the clashes between the occupying forces on the air of the telethon. their internal discord is very obvious both in radio intercepts and in the general behavior, which we can... observe with the help of aerial reconnaissance, we see that there is no coordination in the enemy's units, - emphasized colonel gumynyuk. in the zone of responsibility of the odesa operational-strategic group of troops in the kherson direction, the defense forces of ukraine are continuing measures to expand

the bridgehead on the left bank of the dnipro river in the kherson region. despite the failure, vorakh did not give up his intention to knock out the ukrainian troops from their positions. last day'. the occupiers made eight assault attacks on the positions of our troops, the enemy received a decent repulse and retreated with losses, ukrainian soldiers are conducting a counter-battery fight, inflicting fire damage on the enemy's rear. given the insufficient amount of ammunition of its own production, the russian occupying forces are forced to use it low- quality artillery and mortar rounds supplied from north korea. due to the unsatisfactory state of these... supplies, there are cases of them breaking right in the barrel of the guns and mortars of the invaders, this leads to the loss of weapons and personnel from the russian invaders. in particular, such cases were recorded in the occupation grouping of the dnipro troops, which is commanded by general teplinsky.

the left bank of kherson oblast remains one of the key areas of advancement of the armed forces of ukraine. no announcements of the progress of the operation allowed to carry out effective actions to unexpected consequences. became the clarification of the low quality of north korean ammunition, information about the supply of which confused the public. now this weapon fights against the aggressor himself. on december 18, the ministry of defense of ukraine presented the agency state operator of the rear, assoc. this structure will launch all rear procurement processes for the armed forces of ukraine, including food, clothing, fuel and lubricants , and body armor. helmet commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine , general valery zaluzhny, during the presentation named the main expectations from the activities of the new agency. the first thing is that we want the concept of armed forces and the concept of corruption to be completely incompatible. the armed forces must

concentrate on the performance of their tasks. not in search of food, not in search of clothes, not in search of means of defense and protection and so on. they should concentrate on the execution of combat tasks. there should not be any manifestations of corruption, the second thing we are waiting for, we are waiting for the support of the minister of defense, absolutely, that we should provide ourselves with everything necessary, and most importantly, that the armed forces of ukraine need, in a timely manner, it is very, very important for us, as the minister of defense of ukraine rustem umyerov noted during the presentation, a new procurement agency... according to international standards and nato principles. the army will receive everything on time, in sufficient quantity and quality. contractors, clear rules and the ability to plan. society will see fair, optimal prices, - said rustem umyerov. as arsen

jumadelov, head of the state operator tilu, pointed out, the main task of the dot is to ensure continuous supply for the armed forces, build confidence in the ministry of defense supply system among key stakeholders and build resilience. an institution that effectively fulfills its duties, while all the work of the dot will be built on the principles of integrity, people-centeredness, professionalism and openness, - he added. ukraine is on the march to improve the system of providing for the armed forces of ukraine, eradication of corruption, transparent relations with suppliers, prompt resolution of the rear needs of the military is a guarantee of their, the military's, effectiveness on battlefield the higher and better their provision, the more motivation. fighters and the best conditions for their struggle. the commander-in-chief of the belgian army, admiral michel hoffmann , suggests that russia may open a second front in the future. we see that russia has switched to a military economy. i think

we have a right to be concerned. the language used by the kremlin and president vladimir putin is always ambiguous. it is not at all excluded that sometime in the future they may open a second front. either in the south, or in moldova, or in the baltic states, - he said admiral hoffman. for the first time in the history of modern germany, the bundeswehr will deploy a brigade on a desert base in lithuania, that is, on the eastern flank of nato and without... directly on the border with russia, the schedule for this deployment was signed by the defense ministers of germany and lithuania, boris pistorius and arvydas anushauskas. according to the plan, german troops will arrive in lithuania gradually, starting in 2024, and the deployment is expected to be completed by 2027 . the core of the german brigade will consist of five battalions, including tank and artillery in general, germany intends to deploy about 5,000 soldiers and civilians to lithuania. their families will join them for a long rotation period. during the signing ceremony, the

german minister of defense called the deployment of troops in lithuania a historic moment and a milestone, stressing that a combat-ready brigade will be created under german leadership. the biggest threat to us is russia's aggressive policy, said the defense minister of lithuania. western partners are getting more and more clear about their intentions dictator putin, who in his wild fantasies sees himself as the master of europe. adequately. the rejection of the predatory ambitions of russia and its leader leads to the fact that the eu countries began to prepare for a possible invasion of the russian federation. from theoretical considerations, eu countries have moved on to concrete matters, strengthening their own military potential and military presence in countries bordering the russian federation. we will win, the program was created by the strategic communications department of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. we

are looking for ten-year-old darynka kharlova from the village fun in the zaporizhzhia region. this settlement has been occupied since the beginning of the full-scale war. but the girl disappeared in june 2023 . and in fact , nothing is known about darina's fate for more than six months. therefore, i really hope that thanks to your concern , the child will be found. please look carefully at the photo and try to remember darinka kharlova's face. if suddenly someone sees the girl or someone knows where she may be now, do not delay and dial a short message from any mobile operator the number of the magnolia children's search service is 11630. calls from any ukrainian mobile operator are free, if you suddenly cannot call, write to the chatbot of the children's search service in telegram. this is just one story of a missing child. in general, since the beginning of the war, we have received almost 3,000

appeals for help in the search. fortunately , the vast majority of children have already been found, but the fate of many remains unknown. this especially applies to temporarily occupied territories, where the work of the police is practically paralyzed, from which it is impossible to leave communication problems. sometimes people who cannot find their own children do not even know what to do or where to turn. if... you suddenly find yourself in a similar situation and don't know how to act, call the short number 11630, or write to the chatbot of the child tracing service in telegram, they will provide you with all the necessary advice. in addition, everyone who sees me now can already help find the missing children. take just a minute of your time and visit the magnolia children's tracing website. you can view it here all photos of the missing. who knows, maybe you yourself... you will recognize someone and eventually help to find them. i also want to remind you that

september 2022 she received a short message from him in viber. it was september, around september 10-13 last year, the 22nd. i remind you that last september the soldiers of the ukrainian armed forces liberated kharkiv oblast from the occupiers, and it was during this period that mrs. elena's son got in touch. of course, the woman was trying to call. wrote him more than one message in response, but all attempts turned out to be useless. the connection with the child mysteriously broke off again , and it is not known where artem kholodny is now. ago. your help is very important. look at the photo again and remember the boy's face. he is a very active boy, fair-haired, with such a lithe physique, by now he is already in the 50th grade, light-eyed, gray-blue eyes, active, kind, good boy. if suddenly someone saw artyom cold, or knows where he might

i will become ukraine. let's counter the information attacks of the russians in the chronicle project. monday, tuesday, thursday at 17:15 on the espresso tv channel. vasyl zima's big broadcast. this is the great ether, my name is vasyl zima, and we are starting two hours of air time, two hours of your time. we will discuss many important topics today. two o'clock, to learn about the war. now we will talk more about the war. serhiy zgurets is with us, but what does the world live on? and now we will talk in more detail about what happened in the world. news time to talk about money for two hours, to be aware of economic wartime. oleksandr morchivka is with us. alexander, congratulations, please. and sports news. review of sporting events by yevhen postukhov. two hours in the company of your favorite presenters. thank you very much, lilina chechenna, for the information about cultural news. presenters who have become like relatives to many. natalka didenko already i am ready to tell us about the weather for the day

, as well as the distinguished guests of the studio. andriy parubiy, people's deputy of ukraine, was also the head of the supreme council. the events of the day in two hours, vasyl zima's big broadcast, a project for smart and caring people, espresso in the evening. see this week in the collaborators program. how do the rashists turn the children of donbas into merciless killers? but who speaks for russian soldiers in the city of happiness. alive and well. greetings, i'm olena kononenko, and this is the collaborator program about traitors who are for they went to serve the rashi occupiers with all their hearts and wallets. spring of 2014. the russian federation unleashed an undeclared war in donbas. sloviansk, kramatorsk, druzhkivka - the first captured ukrainian cities. russian saboteurs on the ground armed

collaborators and accepted them into their ranks. later, these small stormtroopers took control of other cities. donetsk region and luhansk region. after that, the occupiers created fake republics there. on february 21, 2022, putin signed decrees on the recognition of the dpr and lpr, as well as agreements on friendship and cooperation with them and help the decrees stipulate that the russian armed forces will have to ensure the maintenance of peace in this occupied territory. part of donbas has been under occupation for more than 9 years. the policy of propaganda in these regions is so strong that children are taught to hate ukraine, to support russia in every possible way, and to fight to remain part of the russian federation. under such a watchful eye of putin , real fanatics grow up there. and here is one of the creatures of russian education - 20-year-old anastasia bartenova from yenakivo-donetsk region. in 2014 year, when the russians occupied the city, the girl

was only 11 years old. my name is nastya, i am 20 years old and i am a military correspondent. adults over the years. russia, through the education system, made her an obedient russian slave. after finishing school, nastya decided to become a soldier. when the full-scale invasion began on february 24, the correspondent started her own telegram channel, nastyushka on vaynushka, where she publishes publications about how she hates ukrainians. and ukraine, as it rejoices at the death of our soldiers, smiles when it knows that now there will be massive shelling of ukraine. it's night time, i really want to sleep on the street, a real oak tree, but we'll fix it now. the weather in khokhlov today is forecast to be hail. she became the perfect creation of the rashists, who is ready to die for her dictator. so, with the beginning of the great war

, the girl joined the army of the russian federation. just the other day, i entered the service in the ussr, so now i am officially a soldier in the communications department, the thought entered my head that i want to take revenge for these dead people. for the past six months, i have been doing everything to help the army and, at the same time, to to get there armed forces. colleagues the shop gave the girl a name bow for her bright image, long nails, eyelash extensions and hair styling. the beauty brought, but the brain did not add. blind obedience and devotion to russia, which nastya demonstrates, is difficult to fake. it is clear from her social networks that ukraine is her enemy number one, which must be destroyed. because the khakhlovs have a distinguishing feature of shelling, they shell the same place twice, and with periodicity. nastya can often be seen in propaganda videos on tv channels the kremlin, films are made about it, they say

, look, a ukrainian child who grew up became a patriot of russia, and bantik herself is happy to actively conduct information and propaganda activities in social networks. and this is the duty of everyone, not only men, but also every person. unfortunately, russia continues to actively use it. his dirty propaganda involving minors. it is hard to imagine how many people like anastasia rashists have already raised and continue to do so. hundreds of our people are exposed every day at the behest of the kremlin children who are illegally transported to the territory of russia in order to artificially instill in them love for the soviet union through propaganda, and the red star and the bunker grandfather will fully pay for their crimes. collaborators in places of happiness had to change their shoes several times. for the control of this city nine years ago , fierce battles were fought between our defenders and the terrorists of the so-called luhansk people's republic, until in the autumn of the same year, happiness

was finally under the control of ukraine. despite constant shelling from the self-proclaimed lpr, the city did not surrender continued to live. this was the case until february 24, 2022 , when it was not captured again by the russian army. depending on who controls the city, that's why local traitors sing their praises. for example, shchaholkova antonina anatoliivna, the duplicitous headmistress of school number 56 in the city of shchastya. in the 14th year, she told the ukrainian media about what it was like to teach a lesson under shelling 5 km from luhansk. and now he is telling russian propagandists about the years of ukrainian nationalism. tomorrow the educational process is suspended, we agreed on this issue with the regional department, and the educational process has been suspended due to the shelling of schools. shchogolkova gave interviews to the ukrainian media, told how important it is not to remove ukrainian symbols and to involve children in learning ukrainian. love

for ukraine, as it turned out, was bad, for two, and when in february 2022 the city came under fire from the russian army, and later was occupied, the school principal was not lost. shvydenka quickly forgot her native ukrainian language, changed her shoes and is already on russian television pouring out how the staff of the school at... definitely suffered, so is the head. now it accepts humanitarian aid from the russian federation. we thank stroya for restoring the infrastructure and telling the students of the school a completely different story

of the heroic city of happiness. under the leadership of the director shchogolkova, other collaborators shined. our next cousin works in the same school number 56. this is lyubov ivanivna korshik, born in 1959. until february 24 , she was a teacher of junior classes at school number 56, but she had no views about... ukrainians. according to the locals, since the 14th year was a supporter of the russian peace, so after the occupation of happiness , she stopped hiding her true views, started thanking the russian soldiers and asked them to return alive from the so-called svo. soldiers, we are so worried about the events that are happening in our country now. we believe in our victory, that you will return alive and healthy. we pray for you, the understanding of all warriors. about your victory, so that people understand who our real enemy is, we pray for your health, soul salvation, her

daughter is famous in ukraine. happiness, and her mother remained, and as we see, despite the horrors of the war started by russia, lyubov korshik supports the russian boys, i want to say, you hope in vain, your little soldiers will return to you in black garbage bags, and no prayers will help. and finally, i will tell you about the flea from luhansk region. you didn't hear me. this is the case when the surname fully describes the nature of a person. kateryna blokha, born in 1994 from the city of svatove, luhansk region , worked as a saleswoman in a store until february 24, when the city was captured, the social status of the girl

was... for the love of everything russian they allowed her to work in the cultural center. now this zaprodanka in a t-shirt with the russian flag entertains the arshi audience and sings about how cool it is to be an orc. in addition to howls, plokha distinguished herself by handing out propaganda newspapers at the illegal referendum, thanking the russian army for her liberation. i feel that soon the flea will jump from our armed forces somewhere to bolot, but even there the parasites should not feel safe, so it is better to surrender and serve 10 years in a ukrainian prison, you will be healthier. it was the program collaborators and i, olena kononenko.
