the territorial defense forces of izyum are heroically defending themselves, preventing the occupiers from advancing, but unfortunately, we also have losses, which i mentioned, including on my facebook page, our soldiers are heroically fighting this horde because the russian occupiers have accumulated about 25 battalions of their tactical groups in izyum and this entire armada is being pushed in the direction of the donetsk region. but for three weeks now, they have been held back by our soldiers. donetsk region, because it is fiercely pursued. we believe in our army and help all of them as we can. please tell me

, uh, there is also information about the fact that the residents of the city of izyum uh, that is, as far as i understand , this is not from among our armed forces uh people who also help create sabotage groups in order to facilitate the activities of the armed forces of ukraine, and we already have a precedent for the destruction of at least such a specific number of russian soldiers, tell us a little more. what can you do? the first fact of such an organized and armed national resistance of local residents against the russian occupiers, a group of izyum residents performed one of the tasks of the armed forces of ukraine while

in a temporarily occupied city and took up the fight with the russian occupiers . viktor bielsky of the izyum city council, who heroically defended the departure of his comrades from the battlefield, but unfortunately an enemy bullet caught up with him and he died heroically the city authorities, for their part, have already spoken with his relatives, expressed words of support and assured that the memory of viktor bielsky and his courageous feat will be worthy of immortality in our city after ryzyum is released, and his family can count on help

from the city authorities in every way maksym wanted to ask you about the situation with the accumulation of russian troops. information that they have collected an additional 500 units of equipment there and the deployment of a possible russian offensive in the direction of the new dmitrivka andriiivskaya great komishuvakh, we are now observing in izyum the gathering of the entire group of russian occupiers, which until then was stationed in the north of our country in the kyiv chernihiv and sumy regions, and we are also observing that they are transferring their group from the far east , that is, if at the beginning of the military aggression of the occupiers in izyum as well equipment was marked with this

swastika letter z, now in the city armored vehicles are already marked with all the symbols of the latin alphabet, as i have already mentioned, the enemy has accumulated approximately 25 battalion-tactical groups and together with other auxiliary units, in total there are twenty thousand of them now in izyum, they are really trying to break through in the direction of the city of sloviansk and move through the settlements that you just mentioned, but they have been doing this for almost three weeks and still have not of real success, that is, as i have already mentioned, they cannot even reach the administrative border between the kharkiv and donetsk regions, they are now in various plantings, ravines and fields of the raisin region where our armed

forces restrain them and constantly do not let them rest and advance deep into ukrainian territory. khrestina and i raised the topic of the land of lizev gunner so much that we would like to believe that part of the self-propelled guns has already reached izyum in the direction of do you now feel any drastic improvement in the situation in particular regarding the provision of heavy artillery to our soldiers now in izyum to deter the russian occupiers, our armed forces use all available means, all types of weapons that are currently only possible to use, so that they go very fiercely no even for a few minutes so that there were no cannonades

and explosions of aviation artillery or rocket attacks were not heard, talk about uh, some types of weapons that ukraine received as part of the agreement with its european american partners, you understand that i cannot, this is a military secret but really in in the izyum direction, our military is using all available methods in order to restrain the enemy. please tell me , is there an awareness that a certain part of the civilians still, er, remained in the city of izyum and in the suburbs of this current hot spot, what does the life of these people look like? now, what percentage of these people remains in particular, and can it be said that there are those left who, first of all, have no way

to go? and secondly, those desperate people who are ready to resist, even partisans you may be in izyum now, the humanitarian situation is simply catastrophic, first of all, explosions are still ringing in the city, there has not been a single day when the city was quiet, the occupiers continue to bomb the city and fight with the armed territorial defense forces of izyum forces of ukraine, according to our data, there are about 10-15,000 local residents in the city, despite all the proposals of the government of ukraine, the leadership of the kharkiv military administration, the city government, volunteers, even the occupiers refuse to provide any humanitarian corridors for the delivery of even the most elementary food, water and medicine, which is extremely

lacking in there are simply no more of them left in the city, and they also do not give the opportunity to evacuate women, children, the elderly, and those who cannot receive any medical services, because all the hospitals were destroyed by the russian occupiers . it seems to me that the enemies are holding the civilian residents of izyum as hostages. they are in captivity and behind their backs, using them as human shields, they are hiding from the armed forces of ukraine. mobile connection internet but some manage to call and tell about the situation it is really terrible people are waiting impatiently for the liberation of the raisin and it does

the resistance does not go to any moments of cooperation with the russian occupiers, they believe that the suit will soon be released. dialogues, in particular, with those who are not only on the ground, but with those who escaped from the currently occupied territories of our country, i would like to note that, most likely, at least two helicopters allegedly collided in the saratov region of the russian federation. this is reported by tas , according to preliminary data, the second army of the world was learning to fly, but something went in a completely different direction, as they

say, there is no less important news from ukraine. so there will be no water in lysychansk until the end of the war. this was reported the head of the luhansk military administration, serhiy gaidai, to whom the head of the lysichan administration reported. therefore, repairs are impossible without water, as well as rubizhne, popasna , severodonetsk. said mr. gaidai to evacuate by all possible methods, and we hope that those who manage to evacuate will take advantage of these opportunities. today, we know at least about uh, there are already medicines for literally several dozen people who get out practically from front-line territories or from towns that are now are under attack, let me remind you that the most difficult situation is now in the luhansk and donetsk regions.

volodymyr molchanov, a political scientist, mr. volodymyr, is in touch with us now. i would like to note that he was evacuated from congratulations to kherson glory to ukraine glory to the heroes so we understand that the situation in the kherson region is radically different from the neighboring, i don't know , mykolaiv and odesa regions. the whole region is actually under the control of the russian occupiers. we understand that the main blow was directed not only from the south but also from the north, so well and the main attention of our fellow citizens was focused on the events that took place in chernihiv oblast from sumy oblast and kyiv oblast. i would like to ask you to remember what was the strangest thing at the beginning of the war. the advance of the russian interventionists from the occupied crimea. of course, it was not that it was a pity

and a surprise, but simply a disaster, that in half a day, in fact, they not only passed perekop and chongar, but also captured all the crossings across the dnipro, after that as a matter of fact, i kept them there for a few days at a certain distance from the antoniv bridge, they left the whole city to them and retreated to mykolaiv. i will not comment on the operational plans now. this all these days in in kherson itself, we have seen absolutely such sloppy attitudes on the part of the authorities, er, refusal to organize the defense immediately, evacuation on the night of february 20, er, 24 , evacuation of the sbu, evacuation of the police leadership,

disappearance of the administrative administration. well, that is why i am not surprised that the right bank of the kherson region that its configuration is not very acceptable for defense precisely because of the administrative borders of the regions, but it turned out that it was occupied primarily along the borders of the kherson region. strimuusov what kind of person is he for those who are aware of the domestic political life on the spot in the kherson region, in particular, how did he stand out, because now, as i understand it, he was installed by the occupiers, talk about it, so the deputy regulator means, well, first of all, it is more correct to call him not kirill, but kirill pramyaousev,

because he has always had a pronounced russian identity, he is a native of the donetsk region, he appears to be from holmensk under the village of goymenski, and at the same time, even during the yanukovych regime, he arranged so-called russian runs with with the imperial tricolor, that is, not russia, not even with the modern russian flag, but with the black-yellow-white of the times of the russian empire, he always campaigned for the so -called brotherhood of nations, and this position was, let's say, carried over even after the revolution of dignity , despite the fact that nothing prevented him from being among his own strangers in, namely, with the kherson sbu and the kherson police, where he had good cover from certain, let's say, hooliganism from attacks from

various performances that he arranged to detail the situation in the law enforcement agencies of the kherson region on the eve of the russian intervention of the corresponding occupation, we understand that the streams of garbage are all this, it is only a manifestation of a certain certain situation. so what happened there and how big and powerful the russian fifth column was, it was not visible from the outside anywhere, that is, we did not have of course that sbu employees or police officers who would have worked for the open occupiers, but we all know it in open sources that on the border of ukraine and romania, colonel shibanov was detained on february 26. it seems that his last name is

the head of the anti-terrorist center is now in the sbu in the kherson region for high treason, because his president zelensky recently deprived him of the rank of brigadier general, and at the same time, it is strange that there are no personnel decisions at all, there is no reaction to the fact that there was complete inactivity of the regional administration with not only the establishment of defenses, well, let's say that the first two or three days it was a shock and they couldn't organize themselves, so they were simply evacuated to the kropyvnytskyi regional security service and that was the end of it, but then it's been more than a month pokrovskoye village, halfway between mykolaiv and kherson, was vacated, after that there were more

vacated villages from the kryvyi rih side, even the former district center of novovorontsov was vacated, and one whole and two halves of other territorial communities, also in the kryvyi rih direction , at the same time, what our regional administration did is parcels in the liberated community of kotsyubyn, uh, all none. let's put it this way, what the people of kherson are waiting for, especially the people of kherson in the station of the residents of this region, especially those that the occupiers managed to destroy local self-government is the residents of the kakhov community, the residents of the geniche community are waiting for the state to take over the financing of local budgets, the financing of communal enterprises , the maintenance of these communal enterprises, because the occupiers actually seized the entire budget process and all communal enterprises, and now for small

taxes, there are some in the region of 100 dollars per month forced to work for themselves, well, it’s actually for food to work for themselves, m.m. workers of communal enterprises, that is, those who give out water are taken away trash cleans the streets and now they are also trying to force those teachers who did not leave the territory and did not evacuate to work for themselves, mr. volodymyr, in order to be aware of the evacuation in general. well, let's say the age suitable for service, in particular, even if they try to evacuate together with their families and children, saying that soon they will be used for good the occupiers say that we will disguise

ourselves and soon go to fight for us, are you aware of such cases or are they already systematic, you know well, yes, there were such cases, they were not systematic, you know what is systematic now is a complete refusal to leave the opportunity, it has been three days already the situation before that is uh, they have also been constant for three years, not the same as delays and refusals and reversals uh, and practically already several thousand cars that accumulate in places of possible exit do not have such an opportunity, there is no such opportunity by the way, open up, they are trying to do that. i will note where these cars accumulate at roadblocks and where they are artificially received by the occupiers. they motivate very often in such and such private conversations among themselves. covering a civilian is a human shield is an understandable

tactic, it is also of course understandable that they do not want men of draft age, conditionally speaking yes, for them to leave because some of them will be taken by the armed forces, then some of them will be drafted and of course they they don't want to release extra soldiers against them once again, but i doubt that they have any real plans to use the residents of the donetsk and luhansk regions that were occupied 8 years ago, as they are now, because our brains are not brainwashed and they if they really want to mobilize, then they get enemies who will simply shoot at them directly immediately, therefore there is rather a danger that they will be used as a labor resource of unpaid labor to dig

trenches or even be deported to russia from here together with with food, what are they now, the russian command and the russian regions, except for crimea , have planned just here to rob everything they can and take it to russia, thank you, thank you, mr. volodymyr. molchanov is a political scientist who managed to evacuate directly from kherson, and we have good news, very hopeful and promising. a resolution was unanimously adopted that should begin the political process of creating a special tribunal for russia. the ukrainian delegation fought for every vote and in the end, despite the strong opposition of individual colleagues from different countries, it was still possible to adopt this unceasingly historic

resolution, so write our deputies who actually fought for this history yevheniya kravchuk, people's deputy of ukraine, now in touch with us, yevheniya , we congratulate you. war criminals were not brought in handcuffs under machine guns to the tribunals, so to speak. but the main thing is that you managed to do it. and we would like to procedurally ask you how it all looked, who was the most stubborn and tried to spit in our ukrainian resolution borscht, so to speak . - first of all, i want to explain what this means to almost everyone. congratulations to ukraine, the council of europe, and actually the parliamentary assembly of the council of europe became the first international organization to add its official documents to the resolution recommendation

to create such an international tribunal today, we had a discussion about this, and a similar tribunal was also presented. it was the nuremberg tribunal, and something to a lesser extent was for the former republics that were part of the former yugoslavia. that is, it is not a separate one , there is no, there is no creation of some new court, this is a temporary mechanism created by different countries, for example, member states of the council of europe can do it, as we recommended today in the resolution, and, well, some period there, how long will it take, they investigate yes they can to issue a warrant for the arrest of high-ranking officials in russia, regardless of the internal legislation , and finally bring them to justice, this is actually the first such step and our international lawyers in various ministries

expected such first class from us in order to continue to sit with countries, so with governments, and there is political will to speak, there are 46 countries that are part of the parliamentary council of europe voted during the period for the creation of such a tribunal, well , they recommend to the rapporteur and the corresponding committee recommended that it be done in strasbourg, because here there is yes, there is a tsitsik commission, there are many internationals there, but it doesn't have to be in strasbourg , of course, it's my personal opinion. and they liked the tribunal very much. this one held the meeting of the tribunal. nürdberg is a city with a beautiful tradition, and we understand that, taking into account what the russian occupation authorities are doing, the place of the tribunal would be right there. well, in any case, time will tell. to be certain

not that in history or not only there is a certain city that is erased from the face of the earth, but also as a symbol of justice, because it is about justice and being exclusive, what was happening on the sidelines of ms. yevgenia, what was in the pendants , some would walk around like that say representatives of the russian federation in order to somehow disrupt this vote in colors, now it is much, much calmer because there is no russia. the far-right party. there they are in libya, and they are right. well, it is not hidden. it seems to me that these are the same parties that today, for example, did not support the bundestag in giving heavy weapons to ukraine,

but anyway, this decision was made. therefore, now they have buried their heads a little but this does not mean that it is all over because, for example, we are also fighting to recall the russians who work with the secretaries in the council of europe because they occupied them here. well, there are more than a hundred in high positions and just from the middle, too, well, they can do harm russia in fact, i threw in a lot of money and a lot of effort so that these tentacles were attracted to such and such people who work there somewhere simply in the secretarial committees, so it is very important. to transfer to ukraine under sanctions, this is also very important for them, because the decision to transfer to any country funds that are from the sale

of property or simply frozen assets that belonged to russians that are under sanctions to oligarchs that are under sanctions is a political and legal decision there is no such simple, ready-made legal solution . but in order to strengthen this political component and tilt the schalke scales in this way, we wrote it down in the resolution. euros, yachts, houses, and so on, there were even calls to open up their villas so that our temporary settlers could live there, well, of course, this is a great initiative, but let's not forget that these are the first steps, let's say in this direction, we hope that they will be crowned good luck mrs. yevhenii well, while talking with the deputies from other countries, you mentioned in mariupol that our defenders and

their wives who are writing down the appeals are now coming from the basements in mariupol, are addressing world leaders and, let's say, representatives of the civilized world, in particular, politicians, remark that something is needed to do with this situation with this story, since it is now at an absolute dead end. is he currently talking at all about any ways out of mariupol, both civilians and wounded, military and captured russians which are now at a standstill, what do your colleagues from other countries offer, uh, you know the problem is that evil always plays by the rules, and good always has certain limitations, and uh, um, here. therefore, this situation is at a dead end, because everyone these leaders are calling putin, they want to talk to him like a normal person, but he is an abnormal person, and that is why it all ends in nothing. well, there are certain hopes , and we had a separate meeting yesterday with the turkish

delegation . convince at least to take over the sea by ships, if it was proposed to take away the civilians, take away the wounded, and well, i must give credit that well, the turks, even though, you know, they are trying to get mikherdogan to call putin and herself to normal relations with ukraine here as well everyone there knows about the bairakters and they are also proud of it that their chancellors help in the war but the less well, perhaps this way will work but again, returning to this tribunal, this must also be understood and we also explain to our partners that and in fact, the nuremberg tribunal is took place after germany signed the capitulation, and then they sat all these war criminals, war criminals, and the defendants sat on the bench after the surrender. by the way, we also said at the debate that

propagandists should also sit there, all these scabies and nightingales not in their whites on lake como. and on this bench defendants, because they actually throw fire every day, so gasoline is poured in order to cause even more hatred towards ukrainians, even more cruelty towards ukrainians, so it doesn’t matter that all these legal processes of international law are there reparations, all of this should be launched, the war must be won, it is senju, first on the topic. thank you , ms. yevgenia, for working in the parliamentary assembly and for analyzing the situation live on the espresso tv channel. issues of humanitarian and information policy, a member of the ukrainian parliamentary delegation in paria worked with us, they will be presented by our colleague anna eva melnyk, we pass the floor to you, dear
