yeah, we've just heard this the snippet from the russian t. v talk show her where a guest admitted basically that they, i, irena, and it has never been any doubt about them being iranian, despite the fact that they have the scripture on them where the name is inscribed is to really and is, is russian. but they look exactly like these well known iranian drones and they have the same components. but russia doesn't admitted for one thing because iran doesn't admitted. and iran, of course, it doesn't want to draw up any kind of revenge on itself. but also because it's an embarrassment for the russian defense industry, these drones are not incredibly sophisticated. they are effective. yes, because they are relatively new means of warfare, and ukraine is not prepared for them. but the components are pretty much commercial parts, commercial gps systems,
8:05 am
et cetera. and russia wasn't able to manufacture anything like that or develop anything like that by itself. so it's, it's, of course, an embarrassment that they have to, to, to iran. that makes it sound like the russians are running out of weapons. and ammunition mathias give us the latest from the frontline. we're hearing about explosions in a hack if that's right, hockey, was it again? i'm of course, when this capital key of is it, it, sir, makes it much faster to the news and, and, and draws much more attention by these cities like hard give mc alive are the ones that are had frequently, systematically, they are close to the frontline. so russia has a wider range of weapons they can use against them, and that's why hard give is really a city that is a suffering a lot. it's very close to the russian borders, so it can be hit directly from russian territory with her rockets. for example, that don't need to fly over a long range and that are harder to intercept because they're in the air much shorter. in the meantime,

what is ukraine's plan to get through the winter with so many people turning off the power or being left in the dark where there are schemes to save energy? am. there are many concerns, of course, that this a bombing campaign against a power stations will continue. there are also concerns that a dam in the southern part of the occupied territories actually, where the fighting is going on might be blown up by the russians. zelinski has said that the russians had mind the dam. we don't have any information, but this is one source of power. and it's also of course, a danger for the people living a downstream m a. so there are many concerns at the moment. are you friends trying to balance out these dangers by power cuts, for example, we have people have been asked to consume less power and out. and it's, it's been announced that in order to take measure off,
8:07 am
the grid or power might be cut at some point in some parts of the country or the city for a certain period of time. they're saying no longer than 4 hours in a row. and then are shifting from one area to the other. so pressure on the grid is very high, and the ukraine might need additional sources of power generators. maybe maybe power inputs, but that's something to be figured out. yet mathias will this all mean millions more refugees as ukrainians find somewhere else to, to survive. basically that seems to be the planner of the russians to quote, create more chaos also to western countries where these refugees turn dense, openly discussed on ration tv that are out of for diseases might a be the consequence of the bombings if, for example, the sewage systems are also not functioning anymore, and they're,
