ukrenergo officials reported that the emergency crews were only involved in the elimination of local consequences, and the power system was working in a balanced manner all the time, so it was possible to fully restore the current within a few hours after the shelling. the ukrainian energy industry is once again passing the test of strength, although the latest attack caused damage to energy facilities in the kyiv region. the damage is not critical, the power system remains balanced, there is a power deficit. not observed, schedules of planned outages do not apply. electricity supply in kyiv region has been restored for all families. verification of bookings from mobilization. the ministry of energy instructed the energy companies to conduct an inspection of conscripted workers. such a decision was taken after detection of fraud in cherkasy oblenergo. there , a man was appointed to the position of deputy chief of the central instrumentation service.

accounting, but the employee, allegedly, working remotely from april to december, did not perform his duties, while receiving wages and deferment from mobilization polish farmers are planning to resume the blockade of the sheghini medical checkpoint, the local media reported. according to the protesters, they did not receive written confirmation of their demands. it is about increasing subsidies for producers. corn is given additional money for liquidity loans and the preservation of the amount of agricultural tax next year, although the polish government has said that it has made concessions to farmers and is fulfilling all their requests. 15 years in prison with confiscation of property. shevchenkivskiy district court of kyiv imposed punishment on the former head of the kativna isolation denys kulikovsky , nicknamed the executioner. kulikovsky is accused.

in torture and abuse of captured ukrainian military and civilians. since 2019, he moved to kyiv and secretly lived in the capital until he came into the field of law enforcement. it is very important for me that this sentence exists in some form, and the detention of kolukovskyi in particular was extremely resonant, i think the whole society knows that he was in kyiv for two years, that is also important for me as a lawyer after all, he has already been brought to justice and the sentence is already in place. in the russian city of belgorod, it was reported that the anti-aircraft defense was successful, but for some reason , all shopping centers were closed for two days. eyewitnesses reported that powerful explosions rang out in the city at night. according to the information of the local authorities , belhorod was allegedly attacked by six missiles

of the operational-tactical missile complex "potka". in and vilkha rocket salvo fire system. as always, everything was shot down. in russian zheleznogorsk , 100,000 people were left without electricity and heating, it happened allegedly after an air attack by the armed forces of ukraine - governor roman starovoit said. according to him, water transportation was organized to the city. meanwhile, russian telegram channels write that the machine-building plant, vagon mash, shops, gas stations and atms have stopped working in zheleznogorsk. now the ukrainian side. did not comment on the information. additional sanctions were introduced by the council of the european union against russia's largest diamond company and its ceo. the organization published the relevant decision on its website. therefore, on the alros company accounts for more than 90% of all

russian diamond mining. therefore, the ban on their import should deprive the refiya of a significant source of income. let me remind you that from the beginning of this. 2018, a complete ban on the import of natural or synthetic diamonds from russia, as well as diamond jewelry, is in effect in the eu. war for ukrainian history. russian terrorists attacked the lviv region on the night of january 1. a fire broke out in the university where stepan bandera studied, as well as in the museum of the chief commander of the upa, general roman shukhevych. the historical object is destroyed, but some... the exhibits were saved. see details in our material. the occupiers are still afraid of the leaders of the ukrainian national opera, which is why they attack our historical monuments. january 1 marked the 115th anniversary of the birth of stepan bandera, and at dawn the russians attacked

the university in dublyany, lviv region, where the un leader studied. the roof of the main building, in front of which one of the first memorials is installed, was damaged due to the fall of the wreckage of the drones. in providnikov, at the same time the russians attacked shahed and the museum of the opa commander-in-chief roman shukhevich in bilogorshchi, also on the outskirts of lviv. the fire burned the building almost to the ground, and with it shukhevych's personal belongings, including furniture, a table, chairs, an armchair, a piano, fortunately none of the people were injured. the originals of things of that time, the originals of things used by the patron himself. the museum, well, the hero of the museum is a person, a person who is at the epicenter of the museum's view, then, unfortunately, it will not be possible to restore this. the last headquarters of the chief commander of the upa was located in this building of the museum. it is an important historical object in the two-story house there was a hiding place

at the entrance to the attic. it was from it that roman shukhevich entered the last battle with units of the soviet mgb. the most valuable thing obviously in this museum is the very building of this museum. considering the fact that this is the very building where the last battle took place on march 5, 1950, in which roman shukhevych died, it has been preserved since those years, from the 50s, and sometime after the revival of ukraine's independence , they began to talk about the fact that a museum should be created there. six hundred of the most valuable exhibits of the shukhevych museum are still at the beginning of a full-scale invasion by the russians, the employees of the institution took them to a safe place, but they were not able to evacuate everything. strictly speaking, the term "survived" means that it is standing , you understand, that is, that it is standing, that it has not collapsed, but everything is collapsed, you just know, a little bit of walls strives, and still surrenders, and the bust of roman shukhevych, works of uktor

chereshniovskyi, this is what we can talk about for now, everything else obviously burned down, the museum of general khorunjoup, roman shukhevych will be rebuilt. the mayor assured this andriy sadovy of lviv. the most important thing is our memory of our heroes, of all those who at different times fought for the freedom of ukraine, and it cannot leave us. no one will take it, unless, of course, we neglect it ourselves. at 5 p.m., wait for the next news release. read more on our website "espresso tv, follow us on social networks and watch on youtube. next are my colleagues antin borkovskii and marta oliyarnyk". the espresso information marathon continues its work, and actually at the beginning of this hour, we suggest you watch it, our colleagues

have prepared operational information about changes on the front line, which took place on the line of fire in the last days of 2023, well, in the first days of this year, let's watch together. map of combat operations for the period of december 27, january 3, the russians are conducting a review of the counteroffensive of the armed forces, but for... they know record losses. during the last week of the 23rd year, the occupiers advanced on all areas of the front, especially focusing on those territories where the armed forces had success in the summer, that is, bakhmut and robotine. the rate of destruction of the russians increased significantly. because the whole of december the raids were carried out in meat assaults, he became a record holder for the destruction of enemy manpower and equipment. thus, almost 30,000 occupiers were eliminated in a month, which is the largest number since the beginning of the war. another absolute. ford is the destruction of the 931st unit of automotive equipment and another 140 units of various special equipment.

419 tanks, although not an absolute record, but the second results since the beginning of the 22nd year. 715 destroyed combat armored vehicles complement well the picture of elimination of enemy wheeled vehicles. revision of the results of the counteroffensive in the tokmat direction russian paratroopers increased the pressure on our soldiers, who stopped the offensive on robotinsky. and went on the defensive. the occupiers managed to push back our troops from the once lost first line of defense to the west and north of vervovoy. also, the armed forces had to retreat from the areas east of novoprokopivka and west of robotyny. the occupiers continue to advance on the robot, trying to reoccupy the village. at the same time, they attack to the north of kopany, creating a threat to the rear of our troops on this bridgehead. thus the enemy focused on complete elimination. the results of the zes counteroffensive in the tokmat direction. in case of success, they will probably take over

the de-occupied territory in the direction of berdyansk. in the meantime, the zso managed to expand the zone of its control by several square kilometers near kamianskyi, in the direction of melitopol. next, the russians braked in the vicinity of donetsk and avdiivka. our soldiers managed to stop the rapid advance of the rashists near novomykhaivka and won. despite the fact that novomykhaivka was in a semi-surrounding area. its defense will enable the armed forces to prepare new defensive redoubts in order to restrain the advance of ugledar mines, which the enemy is actively planning for the second year in a row. despite the actual loss of maryanka, the russians do not manage, as they claimed, to break through to kurakhovo with a marching step. currently, they are stuck in the ruins of the destroyed city and in futile attempts to advance on georgiivka. the occupiers suffered the greatest losses near avdiivka, which they have been trying to surround for the third month. and still no way. their main attacks are concentrated to the north of the city, where the rashists are trying to move away from

railway embankment near the villages of stepove and berdychi. despite certain local successes of the enemy in this direction, the armed forces of ukraine carry out regular counterattacks and again push the russians back to the railway, and mostly simply eliminate them when they try to escape. the village of spv has moved into a gray zone, which no one controls, but the rashists cannot fight against it either, because they come under crossfire on... our defenders. on the southern flank, the russians managed to advance several hundred meters north of vodyanyi. meanwhile, along with the attacks, the enemy tries to regroup his units, probably the rashists will change their tactics. the battle for bahmud and the times of yar. as at the end of the 22nd year, in december the occupiers activated their offensive in the bakhmut direction. the main targets are the villages of ivanivske, bohdanivka and klishchivka. success in these areas will allow them to get close. to the fortified district in chasovoy yar, the situation is currently the most difficult in the bohdanivka district, the derashists were able to break through to

the northern outskirts of the village, but fighting continues here with variable success. a separate 11th brigade of paratroopers was assigned to take ivanovske by storm. so far, they haven't had one in a week no advance, the situation in klishchiivka is similar, where the armed forces of ukraine occupied the dominant heights and regularly repel waves and waves of the russian onslaught. however, their offensive continues, and the situation. is consistently heavy. missile terrorism has failed. in 5 days, the terrorist country launched more than 350 drones and missiles over ukraine. our anti-aircraft defense shot down 159 cruise missiles and 173 shaheds. the rashists did not achieve any strategic goal, instead , their reserves at this rate will be enough for two or three more massive shellings. for example, at the end of december, russia was able to accumulate approx 230 kha-101.5555 missiles, 152 of which it has already launched over ukraine. about

190 calibers remain. however, terrorists did not launch more than 20 of them at the same time. and this winter they hardly use them at all , the reasons are unknown, because despite the escape of missile carriers from crimea to novorossiysk, they can launch this type of missile from there, but they do not do it en masse, maybe some unforeseen problems have arisen, the enemy is more predictable and unpredictable problems, we win every day, death to enemies. well, thanks to my colleagues, it's been prepared extremely important operational information, of course from the open. sources, well, we are now picking up the information and analytical baton and will talk in particular about the affairs of our military, in particular it is about our defense complex and the corresponding ammunition that we can get now from our partners. oleg katkov , a military expert, editor-in-chief of defense express, is in touch with us. glory to ukraine, mr. editor, congratulations. thank you for the invitation. well,

look, let's go straight away, so that we don't nurture the illusion, here is the bundestag after the destructive attacks the call of the russian federation... not to delay and transfer taurus long-range missiles to ukraine. so, on the other hand, information came from the spokesman of the shebeshteit government. therefore, the federal republic of germany did not supply ukraine with any taurus missiles, so there is currently no news regarding the adoption of a relevant decision. stefan gebeshreit announced this, and they all condemn the actions of the russian army, but for some reason the taurus did not increase. well, there is no word at all. mr. editor, what is being done, the fact is that there are almost none of them in itself infidels, that is why it is quite difficult to give what they themselves almost do not have, and almost do not have, this is about the fact that, again, with reference to the representative of the defense committee of the bundestag, who as early as the spring of the 23rd of last year, said that there were 600 tauris

, there were about 150 left, not because they shot all the rest of them somewhere, but because they were not serviced, well... here it is a common question, when that taurus always rises, which in fact has been for a long time turned into more of an element of a certain there, well, all of them in particular statements regarding the transfer of tauris, in general, they are usually simply generated by politicians of other parties to which scholz does not belong, well, in particular, the last statement there, if i am not mistaken, this is roman, she is a member of the green party, of course, she goes to the collection, but quite often, in particular, criticism of scholz is relatively aid to ukraine is an element of flight. the showdown of germany itself, and objectively germany can and wants to hand over the taurus, but there is nothing, because when it comes to 150 missiles, all of them, absolutely all of germany's missiles, which have a long range, when we are talking about 500 km, all 150 missiles for the whole of germany, how many of them the country can transfer, well, in order to, well, let's say this, well, not

fall to zero, well, let there be 10%, 15 taurus missiles. in order to adapt them to the wing of the su-24m, it will take at least several months, that is, in my opinion , it is only possible to simply say to the germans: well , you can't do it with the taurus, well, no problem, let's get the money, mdb deutchland, that's all well, yes, finally, let her buy stormshadow missiles there through her, which are produced by this same mdba, i.e. taurus just long ago turned into an element of political showdowns in germany itself and... you can call for a very long time, but you still have nothing to convey. mr. oleg, today there was information that norway is transferring the 2f-16 for the training of ukrainian pilots, actually it is about the training of ukrainian pilots in denmark, but we know that you and your colleagues have already analyzed this information and say that the deadlines directly talks about the scale of the program

and you say that it is not even about months, but maybe even about... but i would here still, i wanted you to explain to our viewers what these words of yours mean, because if you think at first glance, it means that we will be waiting for years for the f-16, but let's explain everything yourself, so the fact is that we will objectively wait with our hands not at 16, because they will gradually find, and precisely for the implementation of this program, because well, it is actually positive that there is no reason at all for the aspect of these f2 f6. in the two-person version, i am transferred to norway to denmark, where the ukrainian courses are held fighters, specialists, pilots, technicians, and all planes, as the norwegian publication writes, will be... directly in denmark no earlier than the spring, maybe even in the summer, that is , it is not a matter of short-term, of strengthening for the purpose of doing something there and to be counted, no

, there is a corresponding program that provides for the transfer , in fact, of not the first 18 only announced f-16s to ukraine, which was reported by the prime minister of the netherlands quite recently, but that these aircraft will be transferred gradually from the donor countries, which replace them with r-35 and in particular. for example, belgium, it is also a donor country and will transfer f-16, but they have already announced that not before the 25th year, that is , there will be the first in the 25th year only a few machines, so now in fact this f-16 coalition - it is not only to help defeat the enemy , not to help the armed forces of ukraine in this, it is also to ensure the renewal of the air force even after the victory, that is why such steps are taken, by the way, the local publication gave its assessment regarding the number of f16 that can receive ukraine, and it is indicated there, well, bye hundreds of aircraft, that is, it is objectively much

more, and most likely it is simply a basis for the fact that absolutely all f16s that are in the declared donor countries will be transferred, and therefore it must be understood that this is a fairly significant number of machines for which it is necessary to prepare a large number of pilots and ground personnel, and therefore again... the transfer of 17 to ukraine is not a short-term task, not a short-term program, it is generally one of the largest weapons programs for ukraine in principle. well, yes, a long program, unfortunately, although we understand what else last year, we critically needed the same f-16s, in particular, during the implementation of a counteroffensive, well, because to implement a counteroffensive, which our american or european partners hoped for so much, without aviation, well, it is extraordinary. a complicated story , but coming back to the facts, mr. editor , if we talk, for example, about analyzing the latest massive raids by the russian

space forces, yes, that is, russian missiles and plus the drone system, we are constantly trying, you know, to make this dry summary, that is, they are more than a hundred units released during the day, yes , that is, we understand that maybe it’s not the top bar, maybe... they just can’t do it anymore, they wanted to hear your version of what we should expect in the near future, well, because the enemy has demonstrated that they have something , so to speak, in particular, when we talk about calibers and daggers, yes, direct in the fact that the last two attacks, which were and became the center of which, in particular, kyiv, because it flew around kyiv, as, for example, kyivskyi reported city ​​military administration, 60 only rabbit rockets, out of 70 that were launched that is, it was kyiv that became the main target of such strikes and it became a second strike, and this strike was combined, that is, in fact , first shaheds fly at night, most likely

they are used, among other things , to detect air defense positions, after that the attack is carried out with cruise missiles, which is already being hit with ballistic missiles or daggers, because , well, in particular, in the last report from the command of the air forces, from the high command of the armed forces of ukraine. in addition to daggers, where tens of them were shot down, more appeared in the fact that the enemy launched, in general , more than 10 ballistic missiles over ukraine, it could be either iskander m, or it could be s-300 and s-400 missiles. it is also important to note here that the enemy, despite the fact that he sent to sea 20 ships that could launch 20 cruise missiles of the caliber of sea-based bases, launched only three, all three were shot down, and were not used... tu-22m3, i.e. there was such unconfirmed information that it was also allegedly in the air, but it was not officially confirmed, and in the end there was no launch k-22 missiles, so the question of what

to prepare for, considering everything, just such combined attacks, which are stretched over time, because well, for example, if we take a message from the command of the air forces, then the first shaheds began to shoot down under in kyiv, around three o'clock in the morning, at 6-7 o'clock, they fought off cruise missiles somewhere around the same time, somewhere at 7-8 o'clock, daggers and possibly other ballistic missiles began to work, one must prepare for such scenarios , it is impossible to say exactly how much time can pass between two attacks , because it is possible to recall only the previous year, when usually once a week the enemy delivered a powerful strike with cruise missiles, launching 70-80 of them there. igraket at a time, the next day, literally, the next day launched about 50% of the previous amount, ah, so the only thing that needs

to be understood is that the wolf, when for... uses missile weapons, especially when we are talking about such missiles as anti -aircraft missiles dos-300 and s-400, then the goal is exclusively terror, because when they said, for example, that kharkiv is being bombarded with such missiles, then there is no they choose a specific target, they just hit their city, well, the city itself for the task of such terrorist attacks and terror of the civilian population directly, thank you, unfortunately, we have limited time, oleg katko, military expert, editor-in-chief of defense express . was in touch with us, now we will take a short break, and after that we will talk about the important sino-taiwanese relations, well, in principle, the chinese position at the geopolitical level, so stay with us, wait a few minutes and we will be back, there are discounts on fkalor 20% in pharmacies plantain, memory and savings. tired of heavy and bulky forks,
