good morning, dear friends, glad to see you on the espresso tv channel. klesya vakulyuk , we are working in this studio for you today, fortunately we have a morning without alarms and requests, although an air alert is now announced in kharkiv oblast, i just opened the map, so please, friends, those who are in kharkiv oblast, do not neglect the announcement of an air alert, after all , you yourself know very well what needs to be done, well, we are now starting our roll call in... the country, various cities, occupied and ukrainian under ukrainian rule, we will ask now how things are there, and

we will start with the occupied severo-donetsk, we will find out what the city is like and what the russians are doing there now, is oleksandr steryuk in touch with us, please let me know if he is, mr. oleksandr, good morning, good morning, who... news from severo-donetsk, what is happening in the city, or is nothing happening at all? well, the city continues to survive, the occupation authorities continue to restore it, it is possible to simply repair it and make news material out of it, campaigning activities have also intensified, they go around the villages, register people, prepare for the so-called elections they show their propaganda videos

about how people believe, how people changed their minds, that is , the propaganda machine is working at full speed, i don’t know, people believe and change their minds, i read in the news that in north donetsk, people are without heating , most of the city is cinema. december, and even a woman from tsyarod, i understand, she runs a blog, it’s good that she runs it, because that’s how we have some testimonies of ordinary people from the city, well, she is like that, you know, she told her impressions, we can listen, actually her the impression of living in apartments without heating and without light, and all that, but the most interesting thing, i will now tell you what is happening on saturday. at night they turned off the lights, i’m waiting for 10 in the morning, just

imagine, the house is cooling down, there’s just no heat at all, there’s no heat at all, there’s no light and everything is cold around, it’s really hard to find words, then at 10 they turned it on, then at 12 they turned it off again, but at least i warmed up a little during these 2 hours, because you know, first of all, i have a child. in my room, and i'm this night, it's not only that i have a temperature, i'm running around looking for them, god forbid opened up, because under the blanket, of course, it was warm, but a little bit opened up, everything around just seems to me, you know, the refrigerator is generally very heavy, very difficult, but we got the christmas tree, we certainly didn’t decorate it yet, we hung it in the hall only lights, but still there is no light, now there is no light either, now again under the blankets. in a sweater, because the apartment cools down very quickly, but there is no light

, there is no heat, that's all, the only salvation is of course to heat water, pour it into a bottle, water is good, that's how it is, that's how yes, and then she says that there is not even anyone to complain about everything that is happening, and that's how they are freezing, who can't, because the city is oversaturated with military personnel, star workers who have arrived and are trying to quickly use those funds, which were allegedly allocated for restoration, and as for... basic living conditions, well no, despite all the promises, the city is actually freezing, neither the sanitary situation nor the situation with basic communal services has improved, given the lack of heating, people are heated by electricity, there is not enough power, accordingly, electricity is turned off,

water disappears, heat disappears, more or less. if acceptable, living conditions are acceptable in those old purpose-built buildings with gas heating, but this percentage is, well, much less than those suitable living quarters that remained in high-rise buildings and were heated centrally, so the living conditions are quite difficult, the same applies not only to utilities, it also applies to... drugs and medical care, er, well, what can i say, in principle , the city is a phantom city, after three or four o’clock there is no one in the city anymore, it is practically empty, there are no people to work either, since not a single industrial enterprise has been launched, with the exception of

some production lines expropriated by the occupation authorities. , where they somehow miraculously survived and... and allegedly resumed work, but this is an extremely artificial tv plot, and in general, speaking, i understand that there is a curfew in the entire territory of the luhansk region, but i see that with on the 31st and at eight o'clock number including the curfew will be lifted so that people can celebrate the new. here is christmas according to the moscow calendar, or is it? well, i was just watching that on the 22nd they were opening, they were opening the christmas tree in luhansk and people, well, there are really a lot of people there, the whole square is full, that is, the city lives a life of its own,

it is imperceptible that they were summoned just there under the guns automatic machines, well, you know, eh... maybe, since there are more or less signs of civilization there, given the rather long time of occupation of the capital luhansk oblasts, severodonetsk, rubizhne , lysychansk, well, currently they are in a slightly opposite state, yes, a christmas tree was put up in severodonetsk, too, but they put it up, they removed the plot, and it stands, unbounded, as they say, in general, it’s a new year, you, me i understand that it is currently being used as the main holiday for local residents, for russian propaganda, and a lot of things are happening, that is , a new christmas tree is brought somewhere from russia, santa claus from ustyug opens it, i don’t know where it is, but i

i understand that some russian city, governor kurgan region brings a gift to a girl from krasnodon. schoolchildren from the village of yelimbetovo send gifts to their peers from the so-called lpr. the tyumen region handed over 10,000 new year's gifts. next, irkutsk participants of the threads of good campaign knit for the children of kirovsk. kirovsk is what, is it luhansk? whether this is such a settlement, i simply do not know for sure. warm things, minister of ovska. can you hear us, mr. oleksandr, we lost a bit of communication, the last phrase was inaudible, and what buryats are written in the bored language greetings to the people of kirov , the people of kirov, the people of luhansk or whatever, they interpret everything in their own way, they bring them to the territory of the luhansk region in severo-donetsk, people there choose

their own housing, there are a huge list, like all the regions of the russian federation, have to do something for the occupied luhansk region , that is, there are some gifts, greetings , etc. maybe, well, but it seems that all these benefits from all the residents of russia do not reach severodonetsk, because i read that in severodonetsk... the city is strengthened with some decorations, the city palace of culture, with those decorations that are left over from neglect, yes so to speak, from the ukrainian authorities, well actually. they use what they know, what survived the bombings in the shelters, and they use that, trying to show it as a great good that the townspeople

did not see, well, in fact, they create what they know how to constantly create, a permanent kind of complete fake. well, thank you very much for the conversation, oleksandr stryuk was with us, the head of the severodonetsk city military civil administration, by the way, i think that if the curfew has now been canceled for a whole week... day, then it is, it is a super time for to carry out various partisan actions of sabotage, that is, at night you can walk like clockwork, we got married under grandfather , but in donetsk it was not canceled, no, no, they did, but in luhansk, in luhansk, i am waiting for news that 150 santa clauses with m16 assault rifles were seen in the building of this occupation administration. well, something like that. by the way, i like this video about santa clauses and snow maidens. lesya litvynova,

a volunteer, was caught yesterday. well, now the defender found this video, and she says: now i know how to explain to my children that santa claus and the snow maidens have disappeared to where. well, this is for those ukrainians who , for example, say, well, what if santa claus and snow maiden used to come to our children, how are we supposed to take away this fairy tale from their childhood, what should we do? so, after yesterday's shelling, uh, i understand that it is after that, eh, although i think that this one has no connection to the russian shelling. the snow maiden sends greetings to the ukrainians, who still miss her terribly. i think that after this video, your sadness will be lifted like a hand, if not removed, then. there's something wrong with you, let's see, happy new year,

lol, that's it, such a greeting for the new year, lol, the moscow snow maiden, the moscow snow maiden gives us, so, dear friends, draw conclusions, we are now going on a short break, then we return and let's ask about how nikopol lives, a city that is constantly under russian shelling, a city that the russians chose for themselves as a point in the dnipropetrovsk region, which they simply systematically destroy, stay with us, turn on well - that's when everything is as you want, click and you are in the world of cartoons, click and around the universe of cinema, then on the good o... what is necessary! megogo, turn on hundreds of channels, thousands of movies and sports. events, events that are happening

well, dear friends, we are back on the air, lesya vokulyuk, andriy saichuk, we will continue our marathon and, from yesterday, they say, yesterday, i wanted to show you, in fact, that in luhansk, what the opening of the christmas tree looked like, i don't remember i don't know where she brought it from, from which region, but it is now established there that the christmas tree is there in kherson, in kherson, i say, my god, phew, the kherson region , i mean yunichesk, and they are bringing another christmas tree from st. petersburg, this is a christmas tree in occupied luhansk, in fact , people have gathered like this last year, and everyone is taking pictures there, and santa claus came from ustyug , there's a word snigurenko, i don't remember if it was the same one with the machine gun that you showed, well, she also probably said hello to the khokhlas, well, gentlemen, okay, okay, you remembered everything,

well, well, ah. .. we are moving on. dmytro bychkov is with us as the head of the nikopol district council. mr. dmytro, good morning. good morning. how the nikopol community lives. and do you also have the mood to put a christmas tree there? i think that people always decide on their own in such matters. and, of course, children continue to live in the territory of the nikopol district, and parents usually give such joy, but this joy takes place in houses and... apartments, there are no such christmas trees in the city centers, of course there is no such thing today. unfortunately, the enemy continues to terrorize the nikopol district. yesterday, during the attack on the city of nikopol, three people were injured in margantse and marivska communities. unfortunately, a 23-year-old boy died during the shelling of the city of nikopol the day before yesterday. the kingdom of heaven belongs to him and we accept it, we express our condolences

to him. who lost their child at such a young age, that is why, unfortunately, the enemy continues to terrorize the nikopol region, continuing to fire at the enterprise, many buildings, houses, terrorizing the civilian population of our city and district. mr. dmitry, how about you, how can you explain what the russians are doing with nikopol, what is their purpose, it is simply, simply to take a quiet life. in the residents of nikopol and the district, i think that what they did yesterday across the country, when they hit the streets in the country's largest cities in order to simply eat up new year's holidays, certain moods, just to make the appropriate terror, in fact they do it in nikopol and the area , they do it constantly every day in order to just terrorize the population,

because when that drone flies... and falls down the central street, when it crashes into a high-rise building, of course, it's there for sure there are no critical infrastructure or military facilities , i.e. it is just terror for people to leave, for people to be psychologically worried, and we are of course that the people who live in this constant shelling, they constantly think about it. there are consequences, people die, are injured, houses , houses, are damaged, so of course this terror, it is like that, and this is probably the main goal, the coastal areas of nikopol are the part of the city that probably suffers the most, and here are the people who remain there to live, they say that there is probably no house that has not been destroyed by the russians.
