the express will have a lot more interesting things. there are eight in ukraine. and for your attention the news release on the espresso tv channel. in the studio of iryna koval. greetings to all viewers. 38 years of the tragedy at the chernobyl nuclear power plant. it still remains the largest man-made disaster in human history. millions of lives were saved thanks to the courage and heroism of disaster responders. on the occasion of memorial day, president volodymyr zelenskyi visited the city of slavutych, which was built for the evacuated personnel of the chernobyl nuclear power plant and was damaged during. to each and every one who

retained the courage and devotion to the defense of life that saved us all in 1986, and which helped ukraine in the spring of 22, slavutych did not submit to the occupiers, showed... his character, fought, defended himself, and we, we all saw you right here on this square, and saw the heroism of those of our people who, under the conditions of russian occupation, worked in shifts, precisely at the station, and all this helped our entire state to stop the unfolding of the catastrophe brought by the russian army.

the evacuation of the capital's hospitals is connected with the threats of the head of the kgb to belarus, ivan tertelya at a meeting of the all-belarusian assembly , he declared that he would counter terrorists from ukraine. let me remind you that urgent evacuation of people is being carried out in two medical facilities in kyiv. the occupiers are spreading information that ukrainian servicemen are in medical facilities. the kyiv city state administration notes that all this information is a lie. and provocation by the russians. dog experts found two missing children in chernihiv region. this was reported in the state emergency service . an eight-year-old girl and an 11-year-old the boy went cycling in the evening and disappeared. already on the day , the four-legged helper of the rescuers found the children. they got lost 4 km from the house. fortunately, the children returned to their parents unharmed.

ukrainian intelligence destroyed a russian k-32 helicopter in moscow. the attack took place at night at the ostafyevo airfield. the airport is operated jointly with gazprom avia, which is part of gazprom's structure, gur added. in general, the destroyed helicopter was used in the interests of the moscow aviation center, in particular for support operations of the occupying army. without any changes. the government extended the preferential price for electricity for the population. it will be 2 hryvnias 64 kopecks per kilowatt, prime minister denys shmehal said. according to him, the regulations on imposing special duties on electricity market participants will be extended until may 31. for more than two years, prices for gas, water and heat remained unchanged. this month, we are in favor of... a tv resolution

that maintains a preferential price for gas for heat and hot water providers for the population until the end of the summer. also this week the state oil and gas company extended the concessional gas price for the population, it will still be 7.96 kopecks per bunch of blue fuel. president of poland andrzej duda and president of lithuania gitanas nauseda visited the venue of joint military exercises on the suwalki corridor. more than 15,000 servicemen are participating in the exercises called the brave griffin. the suwal corridor is an area in poland that lies between belarus and russian kaliningrad and is of strategic importance, as its capture by russia would isolate the baltic states from the rest of nato. let me remind you that andrzej duda summoned prime minister donald tusk on may 1 for negotiations regarding the placement of nuclear weapons in poland. the mill of russian propaganda

has turned, and naturally, in such cases, there are always threats from their side. but the threats only seem to indicate that the idea is real. is a significant deterrent and naturally makes russian politicians nervous. it is russia that is moving its nuclear weapons to belarus today, so i have no doubt that the reaction of nato countries is necessary. we need an adequate answer, and therefore i i believe that the entire nato space should be reliably protected by nuclear weapons, and therefore i believe that the nuclear exchange program should be extended to the countries of nato's eastern flank. if beijing doesn't solve the problem, it will. washington. this is how us secretary of state anthony blinken commented on china's support for the russian federation after talks with chinese leader xi jinping. blinken called on the people's republic of china to refrain from helping russia in the war against ukraine. according to him , beijing supplies moscow with dual

purpose goods, which makes the country the largest a supplier for the defense and industrial base of the russian federation. therefore, the american government does not rule out the expansion of sanctions against china, if this continues in the future. china has demonstrated in the past that it can exert positive influence when it comes to russia and ukraine. more than a year ago, we were concerned that the russian federation was considering the possible use of nuclear weapons. i believe china's voice was important, at least at the time, and helped to dissuade russia from such a possible course of action. the ministry of defense has made significant progress in this matter. fight against corruption, such conclusions were announced by the anti-corruption council, which has been working under the ministry for a year. in particular, during this period, it held more than 40 meetings, several specialized commissions were created, which were responsible for a specific direction. during the year, 15 people, including journalists, volunteers,

representatives of public organizations, influenced the procurement of the ministry of defense and helped bring unscrupulous suppliers to justice. there was not only a reaction to this, if the supervision of how the ministry worked for this short time, but it was also professional advice and, most importantly , operational advice, it is very important, that is, i always ask my team what product we give to society, i believe that the first convocation of the public anti-corruption council fulfilled its mission, we are from... as for myself, i can say that i am not 100% satisfied with the results, but the fact that we pushed the ministry forward, well, it is obvious, and even the minister himself said that he himself realized that we are all very different, because everyone in principle, the council member had the opportunity to talk with the minister and, as they say,

ask for their blood on those issues. and i want to remind you about our assembly, means of communication and security, the intelligence units of the third regiment of special operations forces are needed. soldiers fight for the independence of our country in difficult battles on the eastern front, give us the opportunity to live, work and study. our goal is uah 720,000, with your help we have already made a prepayment, and we have to collect less than uah 300,000. so let's not delay, the war continues and the help of each of us is important. you can now see all the details on the screen. that was the news for... time we will see you at 19 o'clock, you can read more on our website espresso tv, a brief summary of the main things in our social networks and watch us on youtube, and literally in a few minutes you will meet my colleague antin borkovsky, who will start

created a narrow passage deep into ukrainian territory to enter the town of ocherettene, located approximately... 15 km north of avdiyivka. well, this is extremely serious signal, but in any case we are waiting for additional official messages from our ukrainian general staff. now i will join mykola dovbnia, a member of the druzhkiv city council, to our marathon. glory to ukraine, mr. mykola. glory to the heroes, congratulations to the viewers of espresso. good evening. well, i just voiced. information from british analysts, yes, in particular, it relates to the fighting in the audivian direction, i would ask you now to share your official, unofficial information, everything related to the front line in this aspect. dear mr. anton, the fact is that what the british

intelligence says, we feel with our own ears. unfortunately, those cannonades and artillery shells, which...were just a week ago, distant, so powerful, now have a completely different appearance, we hear not only the exits of our artillerymen, but we can already hear how the enemy shells are flying nearby, that is, we shudder land, that is , promotion is obviously there, you know, i talk to the residents of the city, and sometimes you hear such words, we don't want to open cards anymore. state, therefore that it spoils the mood so much, it is so difficult to expect that not today, but tomorrow, the enemy will be at such a distance that he will reach our city. the fact is that if earlier these roars and explosions were coming only from chastivyar, now the right is more right, well, if i am in the city of druzhkivka, a little

to the right, it is avdiivka, pokrovsk, there, we know that... . broke through the front and took over the line a little and did not break through, mr. mykolo, i would like to clarify, as if they did not break through, well, as if they did not break through, yes, let's just say that i, as a resident of druzhkivka, now absolutely clearly hear the rumbling from two sides from the time of the ravine and from the side of the queues, ugh, and what concerns the time ravine, describe, please, what you hear in... directly and figuratively, i mean, when we talk about the cannonade and what the residents, civilians, your acquaintances who may be in the area of ​​this city are saying, the thing is, i have friends who work in the administration military, and they move to the chasivar, to siversk, which is a little to the left of chasivyar, the entry of the civilian

population into siversk is already prohibited, only the military can enter, and there, too, the situation is extremely difficult, regarding the times of the yar, the times... the yar is being erased little by little from the face of the map, the maps of our ukraine, the situation is extremely difficult, extremely difficult, just this delay in ammunition, delay in voting, so what we have been waiting for, now we have waited, the congress, there has voted, everything is fine, the guys are short of shells, short of drones, it has to be given here immediately, so that our others the cities that surround time, kostyantynivka, druzhkivka... kramatorsk, slovyansk, did not turn into what you are showing now. the fact is that kostiantynka already looks a little like the city you are showing now, time, a beautiful place, like, the city in which it was.

of the operational-strategic grouping of khortets troops. so, in particular, i quote his spokesman nazar voloshyn. the direct speech of khortytsy's spokesman. the enemy is concentrating its efforts to break through our defenses to the west of the bakhma and access to the siverskyi donetsk-donbass canal, to seize settlement of chasiv yar, creation of conditions there for further advancement to the kramatorsk agglomeration. the enemy is trying to take chasiv yar into an operational environment. spokesman voloshyn emphasized that the russian occupiers have not had any success in the past seven days. direct language, i quote: they are trying at all costs to take the village of ivanivski

and the outskirts of bohdanivka in order to enter the temporal ravine, they are actively storming these two settlements in order to capture them in a pincer during the time of the yar, they are trying, trying to align the line of defense and the line of combat collision, the russian the occupiers additionally unsuccessfully storm andriivka and klishchiivka in the klishchii district. an increase in the number of enemy troops was noticed, most of the assaults were in the chasoyariv direction, in particular near beilohorivka. mr. mykola, well, i just published official information from the spokesman of the operational-strategic grouping of the khortyts troops. i would ask you to supplement, perhaps with your own considerations? i don't know what day or what time it was given. this information, but from what i hear with my own ear, i repeat that kananada from chasivyar, cannonade from the kostiantynka side, these are

the locations of kryshchivka, ivanivskoe, it is approaching, unfortunately, what we hear turns into a continuous hum. if you remember the films about the second world war, the great patriotic war was then called, then you remember how the katyushas worked continuously, that this hall. this is what is happening now here in donetsk region near kostyantynka, continuously, continuously, tornadoes bombard klishchivka, andriivka, chasivyar and all this reaches kostyantynivka, so i will not comment on the location of our armed forces forces, because there is no such operational information, but that there was hell, that's for sure. how active is the enemy, the enemy uses aviation, in particular guided air bombs. yes, the connection was interrupted, mykola dovbnya, deputy of the druzhkiv city council, is in touch with us. live, he analyzed the current

situation on the front line. well, while mr. mykola joins us again, i would like to address you with another request. in particular, there is a request to help our fighters. espresso tv channel, together with various volunteer organizations, closed no...no one collection in support of the armed forces of ukraine. this time, i would like to ask you to join the collection of ammunition for the 65th separate mechanized brigade. she serves in the zaporozhye direction, we have a request from the defenders for specific types of ammunition, and they are very much looking forward to help in the near future. the battles are ongoing, the battles are extremely difficult, things must be there, including ammo. resources must be modern and high-quality and meet the needs, so we believe that with joint efforts it will be possible to close this collection

quite quickly, quickly, the goal is the size of the collection 100,000 hryvnias, the amount is actually not large, this is how the guest came back to us, mr. mykola, how do you hear, i want to, i hear you well, such a connection with... we understand, yes, the front line, the internet disappears, the water disappears, gas and light disappear, but our faith in victory does not disappear. see guided aerial bombs and the enemy's use of aviation. as for aviation, i want to say that in the 22nd and 23rd years, our aviation was constantly working over druzhkivka, over our cities, we saw how our airships worked out, and we could, the enemy also flew in, by the way, and this we saw. lately, i don't see anything flying over drushkivka, i don't hear anything flying over drushkivka, whether it's the pppo, the russian one is working, it doesn't work, as for the cities where it is located.

to the right of us, there, yes, there are successful examples of how we got out of the vicinity of ocheretino, thanks to our aviation, uh, well, let’s hope that not only our aviation works, but also the aviation that we have been talking about for a year and a half there is a continuous conversation, and which should have been given a year and a half ago, because democracy will lose, it must be recognized that democracy in the world loses, the enemy, the totalitarian regime, putin wins everything because he is advancing, and as long as there are eyes, incomprehensible, considerations, give, not give, how much to give, we will have people die, we will have children die, we will lose our territories , we will be pushed to some negotiations, to give up this or that, i am appealing through your program to the world leaders, to the american leaders, let's go,

help must come to us. everyone, every minute is whose life, the life of people who live in a democratic country, who love democracy, who love the principles and foundations of civilization, and not the horde that is rolling in on us to take our land. mr. mykola, i would like to clarify, if we are talking about the battles in the direction we were talking about, yes, in particular we are talking about bahmud and chasiv yar, about this direction, where in your... opinion the most difficult situation is now, without a doubt the most difficult situation in the direction zavtiivky on pokrovsk, because chasivyar, torytsk, look, torytsk has been standing since the 14th year, the top has not advanced either by one meter, as was the demarcation line in the 14th year between the so-called ldpr and ukraine, the so -called lehner, so it remained, the fact is that here is the donetsk ridge, here are mountains, here there

is... to build defenses, and from avdiyvka to pokrovsk, there are fields, that line of defense that should have been built, what, two, three, four lines of defense should have been, they were probably not enough to hold the enemy who was advancing, advancing, and look at the map , they are advancing on pokrovsk, they just want to cut kostyantynivka, pokrovsk route, and why take the conglomeration, this kramatorsk, sloviansk and druzhkivka, when you can refine it, i think, this is such a direction... the fiercest battles are now taking place near ocheretyn in the avdiivka-pokrovsk direction. mr. mykola, i would like to immediately clarify what could be caused by the enemy's blocking of this pokrovskaya highway or taking it under close fire control. the fact is that last year this track, this track was undergoing major repairs. it has been rebuilt, it is very beautiful, modern, with

thick asphalt covering, and this track will now be used, well, if the enemy arrives, i hope that this will not happen, it will be used to quickly transfer weapons, armored vehicles, the enemy, in fact, it should be done by our , that is, the strategic importance of the road, any asphalted road, especially of such quality is unlikely, because it will not rain today or tomorrow, it is impossible to drive off the asphalt with chernodz. any car and tanks are tied and anything, but the asphalt is made of high quality, it is a strategic vein through which it will be used, well, through which the armed forces will be asked, let's see, i hope that our state, i hope that the conclusions from the situation are still in order will be done by everyone, and what happened should be considered as soon as possible, at any level, operational,

command. headquarters, and it is impossible to lead to such things that guys die, get into situations where there is no ammunition, fuel, and so on, well, this is already a conversation of the top management, i think, our general staff, about which is now going on, by the way, the conversation, and i wished that there would be no more such mistakes, thank you, mr. mykola, thank you for this honest, albeit extremely dramatic conversation, mykola dovbnya, deputy of the druzhkivska city council... was with us at communication, well, fresh information, the battles are extremely difficult, and now i would like to quote a message from the spokesman of the operational-strategic grouping of khortyts troops, nazar voloshin. therefore, the enemy is concentrating its efforts to break through our defenses, west of bakhmut, access to the siverskyi donetsk-donbas channel, possession settlement of chasiv yar, creation of conditions there for the future.
