to the house of representatives and to the senate, i think this is beneficial to us, that is, the range of military supplies to ukraine can be expanded and expanded significantly because, as far as i know, the jewish community does not like such cases very much. we will thank yevhen magda for this. communications director, institute of world politics thank you very much, mr. yevgeny, and i wish you a peaceful evening as much as possible. i remind you that an alarm has actually been announced throughout ukraine, rockets have flown in some areas. we will monitor this information well, now i have illustrated yevhena pastkov and will talk about sports during the war yevhena please good evening vasyl i also congratulate all viewers of espresso in the next few minutes we will talk about what is happening in the world of sports, in particular, in ukrainian sports during the russian- ukrainian war, let's talk about football and hockey, let's actually start with football.

ukraine will definitely have its representative in the champions league next season and will represent our country in the elite european football tournament shakhtar donetsk actually became aware of this and it became possible due to the relegation of yesterday's champions league match. champions league semi-final. willy played against liverpool. he stole it again and lost to the martians this time with a score of 2:3 and was eliminated in the semi-finals. currently, liverpool real madrid claim victory in the champions league. and manchester city, all these teams have already qualified for the group stage according to the results of their championships according to the champions league regulations, in which case the champion of the 11th uefa association gets a direct ticket and since scotland has already made it to the next stage due to the fact that the russians were sent to the total football bank, the ticket went to ukraine, that is, the donetsk miner went to

dynamo kyiv, which, by the decision of the clubs of the ukrainian premier league, remained in the second position according to the results of this season, will start performances in the champions league from the second round of qualification and we continue the sports section, the national team of ukraine continues to prepare for the decisive matches of the world cup qualification at the training camp in slovenia, the football training center the union of slovenia is located in an area that is supposed to pacify our football players. it is a very beautiful place and is considered a cultural gem of the country. the national park impresses with the beauty of ponds and coniferous alleys. and actually, of course, we are talking about very good clean air. for now, it is difficult to talk about full-fledged training at the meeting because in the location of our at the moment, there are about 11 players in the national team, but the present players are training conscientiously, and the head coach of the blue and yellow oleksandr

petrakov in his first instruction in slovenian told the meeting that from the first day of training, keep the thought in your head that we want to go to qatar for the world cup. tomorrow , dynamo kyiv players will join the national team. this is the basic team of our national team. training session of the ukrainian national team, and our national team has planned a sparring match with borussia mandlabach on may 11 , and on june 1 it will meet with the scottish national team in the semi-finals of the playoff qualification at the 2022 world cup, the legend of the ukrainian national team is probably the most famous football player of ukraine since independence, the legendary scorer, the former head coach of our team andriy shevchenko will return to the field, the puck will take part in a

charity match, shevchenko has decided to join the world national team, which will hold a charity meeting against the legends of the england national team in support of the unesco foundation i'm back, this game has never been so important - said andriy shevchenko in his address, besides shevchenko, they will take part in the match other famous football players and sportsmen, including kafu harry naville, runners in the ball game, runners in the ball game and other star figures, the charity match between the world team and the legends of the england team will take place on june 12 at the olympic stadium in london, and this match is actually an annual one in 2021, the world team won with a score of 3:0, i will remind you that after ukraine underwent a full-scale invasion by the russian federation, shevchenko joined the active support of our state. sheva openly spoke in the press about russian genocide, what genocide of ukrainians was

committed by the russians and supports our country financially in every way, and now, in conclusion, also about hockey, if you play in russia, you will not play for your national team, this decision was made by the national associations of finland and sweden. they will not call players to the national hockey teams who are not left hal or other russian leagues, the decision is usually related to the full-scale war that russia is waging against ukraine, before this full-scale war, more than 60 finnish and swedish players, most of them left the khl after the russian invasion of ukraine, but some still remained, in particular the finns, yuriy lehtarya, who plays for spartak and miko oleg tonen, who plays for the treasure of the decisions of the national associations of finland and sweden, only one of the aspects of the total isolation of the aggressor country in hockey as you know, the teams

of the russian federation and the republic of belarus were eliminated from all measures under the auspices of the hf. and at the world championship, they will be replaced by russia and belarus, and the teams of austria and france will replace them. vasyl this is where i will end the sports column and give you my thank you very much yevhen yevhen pasakov told us about what sport lives during the war well, i will tell a little before we include our military expert in the conversation, i can co-host serhiy zgurts, i will tell about the first er, the first information about the consequences of the rocket fire that the enemy started literally half an hour ago throughout the territory of our country, i already said that an explosion was heard, explosions were heard in the dnipro, and the mayor of the city borys simply wrote filatov also wrote about two explosions that were confirmed in cherkasy. well,

explosions were also heard in kyiv, but they write that the air defense system worked in kyiv. therefore, it is obvious that these missiles did not reach their goal. well, actually, this is all the information on er, so far, on missile attacks now the air alert is actually over the entire territory of our state, except for the kherson region, which is partially occupied by the enemy, and also except for the crimean peninsula, which is occupied by the enemy. anxiety, stay in shelters because i watched a video from the dnipro when the guys are standing there filming and then a powerful explosion is heard and the guys disappear somewhere from the screen with a wild scream. you don’t need to do this, it’s desirable to at least be in some kind of shelter, we’re adding sergey from the wrestler the defense express expert and our colleague in the military summaries of the day serhiu i congratulate you, i congratulate you, we are here for the second day with you here

in the bunker. i say that our alarming studio is working, except that the children are screaming, but you know that the children are crying, children's cries are critical, better than children's cries or explosions so let's get through this story, and the children, let everyone run, let them play, just a little quieter, it will be good, so let's start our conversation, and we'll start talking about uh, about pleasant, yes, about pleasant, about the weapons that our partners give us it is not only the united states of america, but today we will talk about how we really need howitzers from france, the un is called caesar, it is absolutely factual, and today, according to our information , the first self-propelled artillery howitzers of 155 mm caliber, which are manufactured by france , arrived in ukraine the nextr company and these howitzers are considered to be one of the most popular in the world, they are transferred to

ukraine after the french president macron and the french government announced the transfer of these howitzers. the total number of howitzers has not been officially confirmed, but according to preliminary information that appeared from the french medi, it seems about 12 howitzers at the first stage, it is also important that the ukrainian military has already started training to master these weapons, this weapon will primarily be used for counter-battery combat, because it is more powerful, more accurate and faster compared to those samples of weapons that are equipped with the enemy of the russian army, these howitzers called caesar are interesting in that they are equipped with automated control systems, that is, in fact, they can quickly target the target themselves, taking into account their coordinates, the coordinates of the target they are equipped with semi-automatic

e-e charging systems that allow for about six shots per minute and, most importantly, this system has a longer range than before the range of the enemy's artillery, in particular, the enemy today usually uses artillery with a range of up to 20 km, but these howitzers shoot a third farther, and what is more interesting is the individual ammunition of the american excalibur, they generally allow their howitzers to impress targets at a distance of 46 km. this is actually almost three times farther than those samples that the enemy has, and even more interestingly, this excalibur ammunition, which we will also receive from the united states, which can be used in these howitzers, allows you to destroy the target with the first shot, why is this it is important. it turns out that according to statistics, to destroy one separate target, 560 ammunition is needed for

such a case to destroy one machine . excalibur ammunition that can be used with these caesar howitzers is allowed to be fired from the first shot. we hope that these howitzers will appear in the combat zone in the near future and we will really say this is how they will terrorize our aggressors . by the way, excalibur is also called king arthur's little man, so what is that sword that was in the stone, in my opinion, they absolutely pulled the sword out of kamena thank god, and by the way, there was a message from conen with reference to an official in the security of the united states of america. let's talk, thank god they don't, er, don't harm the work, weapons to ukraine, yes,

we need weapons, you can first single out the situation around kharkiv, because what is happening, er, is literally the american edition during er the other day they talked about the fact that we won an important victory, that is, we ensured a significant advance around kharkiv and we advanced 40 km somewhere to the east and freed up a place called the old saltov, but today the leadership of the old saltov himself said that this is true, but the fighting continues in the garden, why is this stare village - the city of stary saltivne , it is extremely important because, in fact, we managed to liberate the city that received the aggressor. it was ruska lozova, it was 20 km to kharkov, and we managed to pull back the border from which the russians shelled kharkiv, now we are talking about 40 km, and in fact the situation is there. so

we can ensure the regrouping of forces and, in general , the number of forces around kharkiv is significant, and the russians must now regroup in order to withdraw forces or from the raisin in this direction or to create an opportunity to give us uh, really, let's say, expel their art units that today threaten kharkiv, uh, and also in other uh, directions, the situation remains stably difficult, it consists in the fact that there are several directions that remain hot, it is first of all this arc from raisin to er donbass and in particular the border and popasna remain the most difficult cities where the enemy is trying at the expense of artillery to simply plow through all the er defensive positions, but in fact there is no advance. and this indicates that may 9 is promised there in any case, the sacred date does not actually lead to any qualitative changes on the front for our aggressor, on the contrary, we receive certain

prerequisites with regard to the supply of military aid to create grounds for carrying out of active counters counteroffensive as it was near kharkiv as reported current news hot so to speak i now want to say that we are trying to call the guest experts who could tell us more about what i will now talk about the destruction of the railway infrastructure in ukraine so far, unfortunately, we have no communication. well, we hope we still have 15 minutes, we will hear from our experts as well. defense express and now here is the information from the dnipro . oleksandr kamyshyn of ukrzaliznytsia says that in the city of dnipro, a railway infrastructure object was fired upon, according to an official, there are no railway workers injured as a result of an enemy missile strike, this is already glad, although we understand very well that the destruction of infrastructure

is also a big lesson for ukraine yesterday, by the way and i will also remind you that there were blows to the wheels in kyiv, the anti -aircraft defense worked. cherkasy, we have this information, although yesterday, when the anti-aircraft missiles flew for the first time in zakarpattia oblast, they also hit the object of the railway infrastructure there, and also damaged many stations in central ukraine, and there were even train delays here, but the question is just as important to the expert. well, it is possible we will also be able to contact him as to how quickly it will be possible to restore it and whether and whether it is safe to say that we can transport the weapons that our partner provides us with e-e in transport, is there necessary necessary transport in principle well, in fact, railway trains remain the most reliable way for us to move heavy equipment, which is arriving more and more, and

we really understand the logic of the schemes to create difficulties with the supply of this equipment. with an assessment on the fronts, because some directions remain strategically important, in particular, let's remember mariupol, where today he once again announced that the city has been liberated, and de facto, our fighters are you are holding the defense and the enemy is already using tanks to storm the outpost, but without success, that is, in fact, even until may 9, the enemy did not manage to take mariupol, that is, there is not a single positive event for the enemy, which speaks of the capabilities of our army and the capabilities of our military in repelling the russian onslaught. things, you know, the enemy is creating this uh information blockade, in addition to the fact that the enemy is creating an information blockade, he even threw the propagandist solovyov to mariupol, i don't

know if he is still sitting there or not came back and he took a tube from a javelin well, wait, there is no more will there is already the main missile, of course, and something he was trying to get along with him, he came up with something there i didn't listen to what he was fishing there, but i saw that he was carrying that tube as if he he took the trophy. it means that he fought in his native country. that is why they are creating an information blockade, but still the information reaches the residents of russia. i don’t know if it demotivates them. obviously, the sbu intercepted the conversation where the fighter is calling, so to speak, to this army. their relatives and they say that they took out several kamaz corpses from near mariupol, they are fighting. imagine that our soldiers have been fighting there for 70 days, and they eat weapons there, not an unlimited amount. they hunted the food that these soldiers ate, but they give heat here, it is interesting to understand, in your opinion, at the expense of what the defenders in

mariupol manage to inflict such effective and um merciless blows, quite quite significant blows at the enemy, he said, er, an interesting thing about the difference there russian soldiers from ukrainians that russian soldiers flee the battlefield at the slightest threat, and ukrainian soldiers to the last choose their tasks on the battlefield even beyond the limits of their capabilities. today, just in the immediate vicinity, the fighters of mariupol demonstrate the ability to fight beyond the limits of human and technical capabilities. i think that it will be, well, a video in the history of how it is possible to defend for so long an object that is not supplied with supplies, water or food . there were very few such cases in history. by the way, i am talking about weapons.

we have time because, unfortunately, the guest does not get in touch. well, it is possible now that the air alarm is possible. the husband is also in ukraine. we do not know, so we will take this time to discuss several important things that should have been discussed but there was no time. well, first of all, about weapons germany can also transfer cobra radar systems to ukraine. i don't know what they look like, but i understand that radar systems are needed for countermeasures precisely because the enemy is jamming our communications, and why are there radars to detect enemy targets, that is, the cobra system is in principle, a counter-battery radar that allows you to detect the enemy's positions at a considerable distance is not related to communication, as it is, this is precisely to ensure the effective operation of artillery, but a very important point that you mentioned with the previous guest about israel israel in fact, it is an extremely powerful partner of ukraine, it was before the war, and now, conditionally speaking, this rhetoric of lavrov can really open

the way for us to cooperate with israel. i will give a few examples. today, germany is trying to buy israel has anti-missile systems that it will install for you and for itself in order to defend against enemy missiles of the russian federation. i think that if we follow such israeli developments , it would also be very useful for us. in addition, israel has f-15 planes that are actually modernized and in even in the format of e-e lend-lease, these planes could be transferred to ukraine. in addition, today we use israeli military radio stations, and this is also a direction that is quite interesting and important, and a whole complex of unmanned systems, including strike complexes literally a month ago we appealed to israel to buy their shock and destruction ammunition, then we were refused but now i think that israeli ammunition can destroy the russians on our land, let's talk more about such a thing . once i say that even though bulgaria does not help

us with weapons now in any way, but bulgaria, by the decision of the parliament, undertakes such an obligation to repair ukrainian military equipment, this is also really important because we perfectly understand that now in these conditions in which we are not not always here the meat is really bulgaria is our essential partner because we receive a large part of soviet-made ammunition of soviet calibers from bulgaria or through bulgaria. so it is not really not quite true that we we will receive help from bulgaria for the warsaw pact, so -called bulgaria and czechoslovakia, when slovakia and the czech republic are now slovakia and the czech republic, and poland and hungary are there, hungary is certainly not helping. now let's talk about one more important thing, it is possible the announcement is the official declaration of war in ukraine by putin. as the president and supreme commander of the armed forces of the russian federation, mass mobilization is also involved. i listened to some experts and it is said that putin can now mobilize up to 17 million people. well, the same

experts, in particular, such a person well, i listened to russian experts who do not support this aggression , in particular, nevzorov showed that 17 million can be mobilized with what to wear them, what to feed them, and what they should go to, most importantly where in fact, my assessment of the field is also that putin is not really ready to announce a general mobilization because they do not recognize that they have sacrifices for the war, their war is going on without victims and how many thousands they recognized the announcement of a general mobilization requires completely different approaches and i think that they will now go according to the option, let's say yes , of mobilization, where there will be the desire of individuals and you for military service, in particular, people from lymphonized regions, there are cossacks, that is, those people who, in fact, have no other option, which let's just say go after the heroics before the first battle. and from the point of view of the possibility of ensuring

mobilization, let me remind you that the equipment they already use is actually taken from the warehouses already old . the number of ground and landing troops, in particular, we have 280,000 ground troops and 50,000 landing troops. that is, only a part of them are combat units, and of these 25%, we have basically disabled any mobilization by such cossacks or lymphonized people will in no way affect the increase in the inability of the russian army. the question is that we now have to wage war technologically, that is, use new weapons to crush the enemy on the approaches to our officers and soldiers, use the capabilities of long-range fire, and those are the solutions that today us well, for now there is no work soon well, indeed, here is the information that in enemy publications they write that

let's hit the bridges, which means to block the direction of weapons from the right bank to the left bank dnipro i think so well, i think that these are hundreds of mustaches and it is unlikely that putin would have enough capabilities and weapons and, in principle, accuracy in order to destroy the entire infrastructure that can be used to transport weapons from the right bank the dnipro is absolutely to the left. yes, we talked about russian missiles in such detail yesterday. we didn’t have time to hit the bags there, but relatively speaking, we are talking about the remains of hundreds of missiles, hundreds. exhausted, now they will use the soviet remnants of missiles there. the point at which the incompetent ones actually performed only the tasks you mentioned, and the use of aviation also rests on limitation of capabilities in terms of range or the limited number of missiles that are still

firing at our cities today, so they write that in dnipro eh well, there they write a little obscene with absinthe eh vocabulary, so i will say absinthe vocabulary and i will say so clearly in literary language that the situation in dnipro is very difficult after this strike, which hit the enemy in the city, well, they already indicate here where he aimed, but i will not talk about it, there will be official information from the regional military administration of the dnipropetrovsk region. let them tell what the enemy hit there . one more thing to say is that this is a rampage that is happening for the second day in a row when the enemy well, yesterday there were 50 airstrikes on the territory of ukraine, today there is another massive shelling, they are firing all the missiles they have there, they have three ships in the black sea that are armed caliber winged missiles, too. i understand. they are hitting our territory. it's obvious, but this shows that the enemy is panickingly afraid of these weapons on the eastern front and on the southern front. yes, we

understand what we are saying that russia is like a big country in terms of size, but let's remember that the gdp of this country will be only 2% of the gdp of europe and the united states, the economic potential ratio remains only this aggression and the waving of a nuclear baton, which is what putin is trying to talk about again, so i think that we you just need to gather courage to endure and, hoping for the help of the united states of europe, create all the prerequisites for the destruction of russia in the format as it exists today. by the way, interesting information, er, this is the same grain that the russians stole . 400,000 tons of grain is actually a lot if we collect it somewhere 40 cents per hectare, well, imagine how much grain it is. if you count like that, we won't count now, because i'm not this little guy who very easily counted in the head of the hero of dead souls. therefore, it would take some time, but you can imagine that it is huge the number of more, yes, um, a ship was spotted, a

russian ship, a sailor, late or late night, well , i don’t know what kind of sailors are there to load grain, 20,000 tons of ukrainian grain stolen from us. imagine 27,000, that’s, well, it’s almost 10% of all that i don't know what they stole and this grain was going to the port of alexandria in egypt. well, they say that russia tried to sell grain stolen in ukraine to egypt . moreover, egypt itself produces a lot of grain there. it is a country that harvests crops twice a year. at least near the nile they have them there very fertile fields, well, along the nile, but the question is that it is a dog, you have to guess, you have to steal it and already drive it somewhere to sell it, well, it’s not better than being surprised by the fact that we have a washing machine in every building in the village, that there is a heating boiler, what about they never even guessed, that is, in fact, we are talking about the fact that we are dealing with a country of orcs

that has not risen either civilizationally or mentally to the level that can be considered a real civilization, let's say, so, well, now i was playing how much time do we have until in order to put a full stop, well, literally two more minutes, we have witnesses, i understand, and i also want to say , you know, the enemy, no matter how bad he is, but still, in conversations among himself, he recognizes the high efficiency of our army, well, - first, the enemies admit that ukrainian soldiers and fighters really shoot better with small arms, this is just a fact. and they also say that very much as they say means that the ukrainian artillery works well because there was experience , we drew conclusions, we brought down the number of artillery brigades, we increased the number of exercises and we will literally say yes, before the whole second phase of active operations, all our brigades went through well, well, well, complex training

, and in fact, it was enough to contribute to the fact that we destroyed the enemy. now we are getting new artillery there from germany, the united states, but we see with france, we started our conversation, we will get new radars which allow us to identify the enemy's positions and i think that we have well, we haven't yet been able to increase this potential and i thought that we have such an opportunity , the question is that our troops should somehow protect the personnel because ours is exactly gold value and used the advantage of weapons in order to destroy the enemy in distant positions, this is exactly what we demand when choosing certain images. what types of weapons do we want to receive from the united states? tomorrow , er, you will see rest from 12 years with mr. serhiy, but we will not rest from you, we will prepare for friday, on friday we will tell you what will happen there, we have such a day off during this war, that's why i will say again

take care, don't ignore the air alert, please, it's important. well, we have again, uh, summary strikes on the dnipro in cherkassy and zaporizhzhia, and there was a stopover of an enemy cruise missile over kiev. well, what are we going to do? - in any case, take care of yourself and consume good information that gives us both the opportunity to win and the opportunity to simply survive or make the right decisions serhiy zgurets - expert defect express vasyl winter now bbc news ukraine 70 days of resistance of ukrainians in velika war 8 from ukraine tells the most important thing about this day on azovstal again fierce battles with ukrainian defenders lost communication russians use tanks artillery ships and aviation ukrainian troops in popu
