to learn to fight on this plane, that is, to use its weapons eh i think that when political decisions will be made eh we have an action plan regarding how many pilots the engineering staff should learn to service this equipment and eh p yurii thank you very much mouse let's talk about this the topic i think, yuriy ignas, the speaker of the air force command, serhiy korets, vasyl, we were with you, we will meet with you tomorrow, take care, and now bbc news of ukraine brings to your attention the great war has been going on for 72 days, bbc news from ukraine tells how this day will go down in the history of ukraine and the world, low-level troops are advancing, trying to take the city of popasna in the luhansk region, and azovstal trains are not stopping, moscow is preparing for may 9 , ukrainian intelligence warns that putin may

declare war and mobilize the west of ukraine, where there is a lack of care facilities for children with disabilities who is coming to the aid of the least protected ukrainians russian troops are advancing and trying to take the city of popasna in the luhansk oblast the fighting for azovstal in mariupol is also continuing this is reported the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine in mariupol, the russians are acting to support aviation. there were no offensives in other directions in the donbass, shelling continues, they are also shelling the cities and villages of the mykolaiv and kherson regions, and according to the analysis of the latest events,

the bbc correspondent sarah rainzford, they struck in the middle of the night with what they hit the sirens they are still howling and in the daylight the ruins are clearly visible russia declares its high-precision missiles and purely military purposes it will never admit this but every day more and more lives are being destroyed in ukraine kramatorsk in the east lyudmila tells that the wall collapsed and she was crushed in her own bed , destroyed buildings and in buch, which survived the horrors of russia against ukraine, destroyed businesses, destroyed houses, destroyed lives, and here in buch. even a month after the

russian troops pushed out from here, there are still full of terrible stories about life under occupation, queuing for food, because many people lost everything in this war, a lot was stolen, but she does not say that the russian soldiers stole all her savings, even her granddaughter's jewelry, and she is scared the family was hiding in a cellar in moscow, the russian military is rehearsing the annual parade in honor of the victory of the soviet union in the second world war, while in ukraine their shells are hitting residential buildings and children's playgrounds, and the prime minister of ukraine denys shmyhal is convinced that on may 9, russia has the intention to declare a full-fledged war against ukraine, according to the prime minister, the process is evidenced by the data of western special services, although in kyiv

they are not yet completely sure that this will definitely happen , but they are convinced that in any case they will to fight until the complete victory over the aggressor still really thinks in russia preparations are underway for a parade in which putin will be alone in moscow none of the western leaders will come and in the country of russia it is generally forbidden to call a war a war you can go to prison there for this word russia says that the announcement of a major war and general mobilization in the coming days is nonsense, but here it is worth remembering that only a few days before the start of a full-scale invasion, russian officials also called assumptions about an offensive by western propaganda well, so that it doesn't happen on may 9, this war is unlikely to end in the near future, the analysts are missing, actually, let's add a little analysis just now, then the head of the russia department of the bbc monitoring service, vitaly shevchenko, i am very happy to welcome you to our studio. and here you are

, monitoring the russian media every day do you see signs that er russia is preparing for its own declaration of war and here i want to quote the reuters agency, which writes that putin at this parade can send such a signal to the west about a possible nuclear war, an il-80 plane was spotted at the parade, which is called the doomsday plane, you know such open signs that they are preparing to declare a full-scale war that will replace special operations, i have not seen this, but there is a certain awareness of what to expect for a quick victory in quotation marks in ukraine, this should not be done , conversations are starting about the fact that not only ukraine is at war with us, but all of nato, everything, the whole western world, one of the tv channels in which i

watched today, it talks about proxy, the so-called proxy war and by the west. that is, russia has a much stronger opponent there than against than just ukraine, and i think this can be taken as a sign that they are preparing the russians for some very long protracted project or such a crisis, or maybe they are just preparing for what is happening on may 9 and when everyone expected that there would be some kind of a-ah, well, it was announced that some kind of victory would be announced. there will be no victory, and maybe they are just preparing for it. does russia have anything to offer the viewer to the tv viewer? you know this is a very good question, because when the russian the audience was told last year and at the beginning of this year that we russians would only need a couple of days there and kyiv would be ours, nothing happened that they can say that they captured er volnovakha

kherson well mariupol is mariupol they destroyed er and that's it well, it's a big victory on russian television, they fired him, cheers, cheers, cheers, but these are not the names of cities and towns that will tell russians something, it's not something that you can then go to red square and say we have achieved our goal. we are going home there. or something like that and i have it causes some concern because there are still more than two days for russia to do something so that it can be shown on its television, but i would like to point out that the kremlin and its television still function separately. yes, and what russian propagandists say, they are completely does not mean that the same thing is happening in putin's head and this is the same thing that we can expect on

monday, may 9, but does putin even have room for maneuver because i have read a lot of analysts that putin fell into his own trap propaganda. maybe he would like to end all this as soon as possible and take a step back, but simply this heated propaganda machine and heated public simply cannot allow him to take that step and any step he takes next only worsens his situation, you know on the one hand i agree with such analysts that he really did not achieve any goals, but on the other hand, his propaganda machine is used to the fact that it will try to present any situation in a way that is positive for itself. there were cases when the pro-propaganda machine literally turned 180° in 24 hours. well, for example, for the attack on ukraine on february 24, until the last they mocked and laughed about it, and then

the morning came and the special operation began. thank you very much. the head of the russia department of the bbc service monitoring vitaly shevchenko was a guest of our studio. in such a difficult situation that i would like to be glad to end the war as soon as possible perhaps, by this example, the american jamestown foundation is convinced that the war has already cost russia 10 to 15% of gdp - these are the estimates of other experts, but this price will only increase, however. how long will the war last, what will make putin stop and what can happen in the coming days and weeks and my colleague tetyana kharchenko spoke to janusz bugajski, a senior researcher of the foundation. it is assumed that on may 9, putin may declare war on the whole of ukraine. do you believe in such a possibility, then there will be no need to declare something like that

which will look like a glorious achievement, so i think he will declare a general mobilization and war, although everyone already knows that this is a war, it will not change anything, most of their reservists are not trained, they will be cannon fodder for the ukrainians, who seem to have already spent all their ammunition killing the russians until in general, russian soldiers are very frightened by the very stories about the killing of russian soldiers and the incompetence of their generals, who are also being killed, i think soon we will see mass attempts to evade the draft in russia in order not to go to fight in ukraine hears a lot about the provision of weapons to ukraine by the united states. but is this weapon enough for counterattacks? ukraine always needs more weapons than it receives. it needs weapons and ammunition, but the weapons that are now arriving in ukraine will allow ukraine not only to defend itself, but also to counterattack

. howitzers tanks - these are heavy weapons as well as drones that will allow to destroy russian air targets. i think that russia will now send even more reservists in russia and there will also be a full-scale mobilization because putin does not want to lose this war i personally don't see how russia can win it but the question is how many more losses can russia inflict and also how many more ukrainian population are they going to destroy this situation will unfold over the next few weeks i won't talk much about ukrainian strategy but what is impressive is the level security on which the ukrainians conduct operations, the ukrainians do not beat themselves in the chest , we do not see any right where they simply take and clearly perform their work, they very quickly adapt to the new types of weapons that are provided to them i know that there is some friction between the old soviet commanders and the new commanders who were trained in the west, but the ukrainian military will become a model

of what the national defense forces should look like in order to fight against invaders, their history will be studied by whole generations to come, ukrainian intelligence claims that they are spreading information among russian soldiers, saying the war will last until september this year putin would like this war to end as soon as possible to announce it in may or september and of any month, frankly speaking, there are many factors that affect it, among them the state of the russian economy, the number of russian losses will also decide the dissatisfaction in russian society, we are already seeing either ukrainian or russian sabotage inside russia itself at military facilities and fuel depots the war will come inside russia and water or another way by september we can see a completely different picture in the russian economy in the public sentiment of the population and also in how fragile russia can become a state, what can be the scenarios

of this war, i think that this war will last for a few more months, i do not believe that it will last for years, but its intensity will increase in the next few weeks, as the desperation of the russians will increase, and the ukrainians will become more and more self-confident, considering how large the russian forces are they were able to restrain and suppress in the long term, ukraine will emerge from all this as a much more organized, independent and self-confident country that will be ready to accept nato respect that ukraine has gained during this time is incredibly large in the usa and in the pain of european countries. ukraine will also receive very strong economic support for the reconstruction of the country. how do you see the future of mariupol ? mariupol is razed to the ground, it looks like grozny after the second chechen war. grozny was rebuilt. mariupol will also be rebuilt. now , together with our colleagues here in washington, we are very actively pushing the idea that russian state assets that

were frozen in the west should now be used to rebuild the ukrainian infrastructure, the state of russia is destroying ukraine and it must also rebuild it, it is not only about the money of russian oligarchs, it is only a small part, we are talking about approximately 300 billion dollars of russian state assets to which we have access in the west and which should be used for the reconstruction of ukraine, as i and said all cities will be rebuilt, although the main trauma will be the moment when the horrors committed by mariupol will be revealed, mass burials of mariupol residents will bring terrible pain, we will see the consequences of mass war crimes on a huge scale, mariupol will go through a huge, huge trauma, but in the end this city will be rebuilt, it will be a rebuilt ukrainian city, and many people from all over will want to come to it to pay their respects to those who

died in it, showed reports that in azovstal during the armistice, the russians crashed a car who was supposed to evacuate civilians from the territory of the plant, there is a dead person, there are injuries, the ukrainian military says that the russians continue to violate the agreements, but they do not comply with safety guarantees during evacuation of the civilian population, those who manage to escape go mainly to zaporizhzhia, but not all of them manage to reach a safe area . there is still no information about some of the people . war for security and even the un and the red cross, which accompany civilians on this path, cannot protect ukrainians from interrogations and checks by russians about

the course of the evacuation from mariupol we talked with the ukrainian halyna odnorog and my colleague zhanna bezpidchuk spoke to her about how our ukrainian side is currently fulfilling all the norms, as they say on the side of russia, completely, all the geese must be empty, they must be empty, there must be no humanitarian worker and her that is, all the conditions set by the russians, you understand, the ukrainian side fully fulfills them, the people who guarantee them, they traveled for more than two days here from mariupol to zaporizhzhia, 220 km, that is, it is clear that they were not taken filtering, then we jumped, then they decided to

find out who is who, and then one part was released and the other part was detained, this is called those people who did not pass the filtering, that is, i understand that these will be our prisoners who will then go to the exchange, this is my such, my such assumption what does it mean for civilians who are being evacuated from azovstal to go through the filtering required of them by the russian military, our people who were there were afraid of this filtering, that is, the data i know. today, 150 e-e six people were taken out of azovstal in two days therefore, of them, 98 people went to the epicenter in zaporizhzhia, a certain number got to the hospital

right away because they were wounded there, but as far as i know, 32 men after filtering did not reach us in ukraine, you understand. now we are finding out how many were in hospitals and this that is the information that neither the un nor the red cross want to divulge, because we understand that the people who were in azovstal are people who are for ukraine, who help the military , there are also the wives and children of our military, you understand, the people themselves say, yes, we went to filtering and then they disappeared somewhere they disappeared they are not with us they are not with us they did not go with us 32 of our people were detained your daughter was saved for some time

also in one of the bean warehouses forever could you tell about your family's experience how did you survive it i don't even really know what is scarier or it would be there or when i am here and she goes out for a few minutes to climb the mountain and find a bell under shelling because there every 15 minutes mom says four or five planes fly in and bomb for 15-10 minutes and then she finds some time yielded to me. her first questions were, mom , the sky will be closed to us. i say no, daughter, they won’t close it. there’s

nothing . mom, help will come to us. do you hear from your daughter? my heart just broke. i said that i will crawl to the court as i please, but i am not there today. there is a reward for me there, and they say to me, gala, you will only go to the first checkpoint. you will not be taken prisoner just there. there's a drink for you arrange and you won't be able to help. and no daughter and no one, and that's why i started meeting everyone from mariupol who was leaving from the first day. president zelenskyi said that the destruction of ukrainian military and civilians on the territory of azovstal will put an end to the negotiations with russia, he said, thanks to the efforts of red ukraine the cross and the united nations finally managed to find a format for the evacuation of peaceful people from the blocked plant,

and he spoke at the british institute chat house and also said that the blockade of mariupol by the russians by the military is a deliberate step, a manifestation of hatred and terrorism, and since the beginning of the great war, ukrainian children with disabilities have been in real trouble, they need not only protection, but also daily care, a human rights organization that takes care of the rights of people with disabilities conducted its own investigation and discovered the facts of improper treatment of wards of orphanages - boarding schools, bbc correspondents went to one of these institutions in the west of ukraine, they brought pupils from a home from donbas there, but their guardians escaped who is saving the teenagers now report dan johnson i warn you that some footage from his material may shock you, you have never heard a war like this. anna's teeth grinding is a manifestation of the

hidden trauma of ukrainian children with disabilities. these children are the most vulnerable and at the same time the least visible victims of war. they are irritated, disoriented and upset. they simply survive these children. sent to a place not suitable for their stay. you are sure that you will be able to provide the children with proper care. the director of the boarding school could not believe that the guardians of these children ran away and left them i was ready for them to come and tell me. this child is like this. the whole child is like this. this child is an epileptic, all except you

are wet. and then left their guardians, went to germany, took them there for treatment of children with less complex manifestations of disability, the girl has frequent seizures, viktoria, 14, together with her, the same teenage girls the nurse tells what not used to working with patients and with a similar group of disabilities, the woman believes that these children cannot adequately assess the situation, she asks what level of intelligence we are talking about. specialists in the protection of the rights of people with disabilities fix the conditions of stay. if they are in a safe place, their condition will deteriorate over time. because here they do not receive any stimulation or rehabilitation. in my opinion, this harms the lives of these children even more, and they were so limited long before the start of the war. and outside the walls of the children's home, there is no such future for them houses of remnants last year, the manager says that

one of the pupils sings for us on the internet, there is not enough staff, so the older pupils help take care of the children, but those who arrived from the east have special needs , activists of the organization for the protection of the rights of people with disabilities have recorded similar conditions in three other neighboring institutions we didn't pay too much attention to the war and now they just lie in cribs in beds tied up neglected it's very dangerous these children pay too high a price for the war those the conditions contradict any international practice in terms of what kind of care should be provided to these girls and on the other hand the staff of the institution is trying to do everything possible in the current circumstances, we were told that oksana does not speak due to developmental disabilities and galina manages to establish contact oksana notices our microphone there is a

ray of hope that all is not lost oksana you are taking away my work there is an urgent need to direct as much international support as possible for these children or love and family care but at the time when so many ukrainians are fleeing from the war, the similar pain of loss will accompany thousands more people, and those who fled abroad from the war are beginning to return to ukraine in recent weeks, according to the government, about one million people have already returned, and in recent days, the number of people entering the country exceeds the number of those who are going is one of the first to return residents of the kyiv region of those areas that were occupied by the russians in the first days of the war, the russians have been defeated and will be forced to retreat in the meantime, the lives of the freed territories are still far from normal

bbc correspondents have returned from makarov makarov is a small town 10,000 people live here, but for the russians it was on an important road to kyiv, so the city was at the epicenter of the battles for the capital, a month has passed since the attackers left here, but the full scale of the consequences is becoming felt only now ivan worked at this factory for the production of uniforms for 32 years, this is all that remained of his business after he was shot at three times, of course there was a second home. well, of course, what can be done to find out when you know you will know that you have burned down , your home has been destroyed, of course the heart and soul hurt ivan says those who did such things makarov is going through the darkest times not people,

we were brought several kilometers away to show a whole man who was found in their deep graves next to the russian trenches believe that he was a civilian, the police say that they found about a hundred bodies in this area, but many are still considered missing. advertisements asking for help to find them can be seen in the city at the same time spring brings the first signs of healing this week the bazaar has resumed work here i have been talking about cities like makarov for weeks we knew that there were not fierce battles taking place in them when you first get here you think about what happened here the road to recovery will be difficult and long but the local residents we are ready for it, it is difficult, of course, but we are living, you see, the house

is not completely destroyed, of course, it is alive, but it is destroyed, how will it be, we will see now, of course, it is difficult, it is difficult. at the same time, the threat of new attacks has not yet passed. today, more relevant and important information can always be found on our website vvc.ua, as well as on our pages in social networks, and we have just released a new podcast about what is happening near the southwestern borders of ukraine, there is definitely something happening there, provocations in transnistria, missile strikes by russians russian boats were shot down by the ukrainians, so can russia attack moldova in order to seize odesa, many are writing about this now, a small spoiler if the russians attack with a light walk, the russians will not succeed there, listen our podcasts are available on apple podcast spotify youtube and on our website well, we are on the air again on monday at 21:00 take care good
