valentyn usovsky is one of those who play football on crutches, the man defended the country as part of the 103rd brigade of territorial defense forces. in january 2023, it was time. under the flint in luhansk region, the left leg had to be amputated. during rehabilitation in lviv , valentina was offered to join the newly formed club. in the beginning, i think it was difficult, but over time, you can even see by your movements and your technique that everything better and better, and the muscles get used to it, and you adapt to working with one leg, so i think, in time, i almost hope. i will not feel discomfort. veterans of the russian-ukrainian war have been training together for 7 months. there are 18 players in the first football team of people who have lost limbs, pokrova lviv-amp. the team consists of 80% of military personnel who defended their

homeland and, having lost their limbs, returned to life and continue to play football. and 20% of gray-haired people who are for... injuries at work due to cancer. veterans before entering the field prostheses are removed: according to the rules, the players are people with amputated legs, they run and hit the ball with the help of elbow crutches, but the goalie is a person without an arm. each training consists of such, with such a sequence, it is clear that the massage therapist and physiotherapist prepare the guys for training, then there is a warm-up, then the main part and... a pause, the end of the training. the veteran team trains twice a week, and newcomers join the club, such as andrii mandryk, a veteran with an amputated leg. so far it is difficult because there is no second leg, it's a little difficult to get used to running correctly on crutches, and i was in pain on my right, and

my right leg was amputated, now i have to learn to do everything with my left. sport is one of the best ways of physical and psychological rehabilitation. says team coach bohdan melnyk, the main thing is to play so as not to harm the rehabilitation. we already played the first round of the polish championship, played three matches, two of which we lost, one was a draw. and now we are preparing for the second round of the polish championship, which will take place from may 11 to 12 in the city of ryasiv. team players hope that soon there will be a national football championship in ukraine among amputee players. by kateryna oliynyk, andriy polikovskyi, espresso tv channel. that's all the news i have for now, see you in less than an hour.

selyamulik atp of our viewers as part of a joint project. to spress and atr together beraber, i gulsa mikhalilova and my colleague mr. andriy yanitskyi work for you in the studio. congratulations, congratulations. well, we continue to talk about crimea, talk about the latest and most relevant news regarding the temporary of the occupied crimean peninsula, and as always we would like to start this bloc with the latest military news and actions from of the armed forces of ukraine on the territory of the temporarily occupied peninsula, and our first guest is mr.

volodymyr zablotskyi, a military and maritime expert, mr. volodymyr, i can hear you, you can hear us, okay, yes, mr. volodymyr, first of all, tell me, please , you recently attended a very interesting conference in bulgaria, what kind of conference was it, what is its significance for our defense complex and for crimea in general. well, i can't say anything about the conference to say, this is probably some kind of mistake, but i can say in general that any conference that is aimed at increasing our defense capability, that accelerates the process of development of events at the front in our favor, and , of course, accelerates the liberation of the temporarily occupied crimea, is so important. a thesis that i can prove, what i am sure of, well, indeed

, the black sea security conference was held in bulgaria, at which we heard a lot of theses and about security in the black sea region, representatives of the countries of the black sea region and countries took part there strategically important for this region, and you know, i have a question here, and can we generally talk... about ensuring security in the waters of the black sea region, if, as long as the black sea fleet of the russian federation exists and the russian regime exists, the russian federation in is it now on the borders of the black sea region? we definitely cannot say, and it will be a mistake if someone convinces us otherwise. as long as there is a black sea fleet in the black sea there is danger for everyone, even. of those countries that do not participate in hostilities, as long as the russian federation exists,

there is a danger for countries that are located beyond the borders of even the black sea, this is, firstly, secondly, we have such a historical example, very attractive, which i believe should be applied after our victory, to deprive the russian federation, if it... remains or that state entity that will exist in its place, the right to have naval forces on the black sea. we still see that russia has greatly lost its power in the black sea and as a result of the actions of the naval forces of ukraine, primarily the armed forces of ukraine, and they even had to change the commander of the black sea fleet, is it clear that the new commander. somehow conducts hostilities in a different way, more effectively than the previous one, and do we

resist this, as you assess, you know, the situation is developing in such a way that nothing changes from the change of commander, and they do it in vain, although, well, it is , it happens with us, yes, please. the fact is that the change of commander in this case is nothing decides and the adversary loses, he has a backlash, he is waging an unjust war, he has the means of this war out of date, he has weapons systems that were prepared for the last war, that is , we are ahead in terms of know-how in the war at sea, and even without a fleet, ukraine, nevertheless, ... the enemy outside the water area, at least the southern and western

water area of ​​the black sea, the consequence of this is the restoration of maritime trade, communication of ukraine with the outside world, and the prerequisites for the liberation of crimea are also created. ugh. well, indeed, we are now seeing how russia is trying its leftovers. of the fleet and, as reported by many russian media and propagandists of the russian media and many other sources, russia is now transferring its ships of the black sea fleet to... ports of novorossiysk and even they concluded an agreement with the occupation authorities of abkhazia. can we say that for us and for the armed forces of ukraine, the ports of novorossiysk and the ports, possible ports of abkhazia are already a legitimate target? obviously, a legitimate target, russian warships, military facilities anywhere, even behind

within the waters of the black sea. we know the latest examples, let's say, almost destruction, but severe damage to a missile ship in the baltic fleet, damage to objects elsewhere, in other regions of russia, that is, far from the theater of hostilities, but if we have such an opportunity, we will destroy the enemy where we can, but do we have such an opportunity, mr. volodymyr, or are these goals achievable for us in the new russia and, well, in the future in... quite achievable, this is not a problem for aerial drones, let's say yes, shock, both for sea and for submarines, the tests of which were recently reported, moreover, now it is only a matter of a political decision, the fact is that after the damage to the tanker sih,

last year, when the vdk olniygorskyi gornyak was damaged, it was ... just a few hours later, the tanker sikh, which was in the queue to prevent the passage of the kerch strait, was damaged, but our western partners, well , warned that it should not be done, because it is oil exports and so on, after that ukraine moved to strikes on oil infrastructure on the mainland, i.e. where there is no threat of oil spills and environmental threats. environment, well , let's see, i think that as the need arises, we have surface, underwater, air, ground, missile and so on means, we can clearly see this on the example of the last strike on dzhanka, ugh, well, indeed, this week, as a result of the attack on the military airfield in the temporarily occupied crimea dzhanko and

the destruction of the launcher of the radio anti-missile air defense systems. tion system, as well as affected russian ones planes, this has already been confirmed and stated by the representative of the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense of ukraine andriy yusov, and here you know, the question arises, what new challenges arise for the armed forces of ukraine after the destruction of certain objects at the dzhankoy airfield, i.e. who and what can to be next, well, for example, the kerch bridge, how do you assess the prospects of defeating the kerch bridge? the bridge will be destroyed, there are means for this, the only thing is that its destruction must somehow be coordinated with what our troops on land, that is, its destruction should be part of the plan to liberate crimea, that is , a strike, then logistics are interrupted from the sea and from this bridge, then there is an assault on the peninsula or

the expulsion of the enemy, coercion. to leave it , the peninsula is temporarily occupied and so on, that is, these are interconnected parts of one chain that must be coordinated somewhere in time, and it seems that russia understands that the bridge will be destroyed, because it is building a railway road at an alarming rate already across the land for delivery ammunition for their occupation forces troops, and if even the bridge is destroyed, then after... these servants of russia will not stop, does this destruction of the kerch bridge have such a great military significance, or is it more about some kind of symbolism, well, symbolism is present in the war, because information the component always exists in parallel with the physical destruction of something or someone, it is difficult to say here, but

it is necessary to do both, moreover, if... they build this branch from rostov, there are two such bridges, two sections through kalmius and through another there is a little river there further, which can be destroyed, and it is not yet a fact that this branch will work, uh, we are talking about the rostov, melitopol, berdyansk branch, the one that is currently being built by russian railways, well, this is the one that they are building now with accelerated topics . as you say, yes, yes, ah, and one more news that we would like to talk to you about is very important, but it is published by reuters, with reference to four. his interlocutors and writes to reuters that ukraine has not begun to conclude agreements on safe navigation in the black sea. ukraine unexpectedly refused

concluding an agreement with russia and turkey on safe navigation in the black sea, when this agreement was almost reached. well, it is logical that ukraine will not sign any agreement with the russian federation, and ukraine, like no one else, understands and sees. in my experience, any agreement signed by russia is not worth a penny, and we saw it in the budapest memorandum, and we saw it during this agreement and the agreement on the joint use of the sea of ​​azov and so on, but still maybe there are alternatives some security and cooperation measures that can be proposed, for example with turkey, which is for us. a strategically important state , well, at least in the waters of the black sea , i personally do not particularly believe in this and do not consider it necessary to discuss it, because it is not a fact

that such negotiations did not take place, that is, in fact, we do not need them either, ukraine controls the region sufficiently for to restore shipping up to the pre-war level and no new grain agreements or any other agreements with... russia are impossible, we don't need them, yes, you are right, i found news about the head of the black sea fleet novy. british intelligence reports that, following his appointment, russia's black sea fleet is showing the least activity since the start of the full-scale invasion. so, mr. volodymyr, you were absolutely right that the name of the head of the black sea fleet means little. but what does he influence, the very picture on the battlefield is such that he cannot do anything, well, although he hides these ships away from ukrainian

drones, and this is also confirmed by british intelligence, which writes that portnovosisky already modernized to support ships from the temporarily occupied crimean peninsula, but at the same time, russia is now actively trying to mobilize citizens of ukraine who live on the territory of the occupied... peninsula to join the ranks of the armed forces of the russian federation, and indeed during this time we have seen a lot of things that russia has opened against crimeans against citizens of ukraine on the territory of occupied crimea who did not want to join the ranks of the russian federation. here's how you evaluate this news and what to do for citizens of ukraine who simply don't want to go to olaff. how simple they are forces, well, i cannot disagree with the fact that this is happening, that this is a fact, this is another

crime of the so-called russian federation, and this crime is again directed against ukraine, against its ethnic group, without regard to the fact that these are the crimean tatars, these are ethnic ukrainians or even russians, they... do this both in crimea and in other occupied territories and try to solve their problems in this way at the expense of other peoples, including the occupied, to counter this, there is such a program, which was introduced by the main intelligence management, in including in crimea, which is aimed at... we will know how to refuse this, even when there are conscripts, so- called by force, drafted into the army

of the occupiers, how to get in touch with representatives of ukraine, and there will be , let's say, detailed instruction on what to do and how to act in order to survive, let's say, stay alive and return home. well, as i understand it, the conscription of citizens disloyal to russia, citizens disloyal to russia into the russian army, is actually an opportunity for ukrainian intelligence to get their eyes inside the russian army and people who after all, they could not refuse her service, but they have some pro-ukrainian views, they can contact ukrainian intelligence and report useful information for ukraine and thus bring the liberation of crimea closer. we thank you. thank you very much, mr. volodymyr,
