individual first-aid kits, our field hospital. they use artillery, tanks, and aviation in the morning. from there they are kicked out or they are not allowed in at all. that's right. that's right. that's how the situation is. there is an enemy in some parts of the plant. well , let's put it this way. the release of people for the growth of the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi in his evening address, he stated that they are constantly working to achieve the return of our people to mariupol for this, we need everyone to adhere to the agreements, we are preparing for new

attempts by russia to advance in the donbass , to intensify their movement in the south of ukraine, the occupiers still do not want to admit that are at a dead end and that their so-called special operation has already gone bankrupt, but the moment will surely come when the ukrainian people will push the invaders to the limit their recognition of reality will be announced next week by the president, he will work a lot with international partners, in particular, he will appeal to the parliaments of european countries that help ukraine, we are working to strengthen sanctions against russia, it is necessary for partners to make weekly decisions that limit russia's ties with the world, the occupiers must feel the increase in the price of war for them to feel constantly now the first priority is the oil embargo if moscow had not tried to disrupt

this decision at the time of europe's dependence on russian energy resources are running out and this will not change ukraine can receive 40 billion dollars of military aid from the united states as early as next week, such hope was expressed by the extraordinary and plenipotentiary ambassador of ukraine to the united states, oksana markarova, on the air of the telethon, this is a record aid package for ukraine, the allocation of funds was supported by the house of representatives of the united states, but the vote braked one of the senators. he proposed to carry an amendment to control the spending of american taxpayers' money in order to avoid fraud, it is assumed that this package of military assistance will include not only the supply of weapons to ukraine, but also direct support of the ukrainian budget . in addition, ukraine asks to officially recognize russia as a state sponsor of terrorism . only four countries in the world have had this status so far: syria, iran , north korea, and cuba. such recognition will actually

have the effect of accelerating many sanctions . will make it impossible for many countries that today try to maintain neutrality or pretend that it does not concern them after the country falls into such recognition becomes well, if not impossible, it is very risky for all financial systems for all companies to cooperate with companies, citizens or institutions from such a country. sweden and finland almost simultaneously decided to apply for membership in nato. both countries were pushed to this step by russia's war in ukraine. the finnish president stated that joining the alliance is not directed against anyone and should strengthen europe for membership in nato in the coming days the swedish parliament will also vote against turkey spoke, as explained in the foreign ministry there, the turkish people are asking the leadership to block their entry because these countries support the kurds, whom

ankara considers extremists, the majority of turkish citizens are against the membership of these two countries that support, in particular, the workers' party of kurdistan , which is a terrorist organization, people are asking us to block their entry, we need to talk about all this nato allies meanwhile in istanbul because of the russian aggression in ukraine dozens of people came out to protest actions they held in their hands posters with inscriptions in support of ukraine, protesters appealed to humanitarian organizations and world leaders to help the people blocked in mariupol and at the metallurgical plant. and also to the president of turkey to personally facilitate the evacuation of the military from azovstals . russia is trying to destroy the defenders of mariupol, for our soldiers, captivity is worse than death

without water and medical care they never surrender today azovstal the greatest wound of humanity on the ground in melitopol, mass kidnappings of people continue, the head of the temporarily occupied city, ivan fedorov, declares this. whole families of melitopol residents are kidnapped, and after 4 p.m. the city 's streets are empty. to the basement. some of them were in such a condition that they could not stand on their feet, and of course we see this as a great danger for all our residents . according to ivan fedorov, the military is looting enterprises of melitopol, they have already reached hydromash and the melitopol auto- tractor spare parts plant. from there, the occupiers began to take away all the equipment. the situation is the same at

the auto-tractor spare parts factory, which was taken over by the russian soldiers from the first days. at first, they took away all furniture, but this plant was significant in that it also worked for the defense industry of ukraine and today, with the help of the equipment located at the plant, they are trying to make this plant serve the defense industry a complex of the russian federation, russian special services are recruiting children to lutsk, sbu officers kidnapped three seventh-graders who were being raised by spies, incited children to cooperate, law enforcement officers spotted them near one of the military checkpoints , carefully inspected the positions, the children could not answer the police's questions, when operatives checked the teenagers' phones, they found many pictures there military airfield and repair point, as well as correspondence with unknown russian

callers who asked children about the situation in in the region, trying to find out information about the location of military facilities, military equipment and weapons, the russian special services do not shy away from anything and involve even our children in their activities, it was all casual, forced correspondence, of course, we used words that are accessible to children, the children had no idea that they would cooperate with god, it was a game for them on the spot, they immediately called the parents of the teenagers, the children said that no reward was promised for the spy with yours, the operatives worked on time, so none the boys did not have time to convey the information to the russian special services, the law enforcement officers call on adults to explain to children the danger of such communication with the enemy for these boys and their parents, this time everything ended only with a preventive conversation where the next eurovision contest will be held yalta mariupol-kyiv chornobayivka ukrainians are already discussing

the future and a song festival is going to be held among the proposed cities there is also the small birthplace of the vocals of the olegasyuk band, the city of kalush, eurovision rules prohibit holding the contest in ukraine which is in a state of war, which countries are ready to host the eurovision song contest instead of ukraine and what they are saying to ukrainian politicians and the public broadcaster will tell mr. antonyuk that eurovision song contest will be held in ukraine next year, the mayor of kyiv vitaliy klitschko is confident of this, the mayor of the capital joked that he knows how to watch tomorrow and already announced the preparation for the song contest kyiv is again preparing to host the eurovision song contest, we know how to do it, the chairman of the european council charles also wished us to host the eurovision song contest in kyiv michelle and the head of the european parliament, roberta metzola, promised to personally visit the capital of ukraine during the next song contest. president

of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi, congratulating kalush on his victory , mentioned mariupol. ukrainian cities for eurovision 2023, i would definitely be in favor of the euro coming to mariupol, which we should free. i think there are no problems to build a separate structure of this large complex, if it will be difficult due to infrastructure problems, then there is a roadblock - this is the ukrainian kherson, which is currently under occupation, which must be freed, the infrastructure there is, thank god, not destroyed. what is a plus? mariupol is the sea. kherson is also the sea - this is dnipro, you understand, that's why the atmosphere

will be beautiful, ukrainians practice memes and fantasize on social networks. there are jokes about the future location of the song contest, for example, that you can win eurovision 20 times in chernobyvka in a row, many of our compatriots are advised to prepare swimsuits so that next year they can attend the song contest in yalta, ukraine. the most famous supporters of this year's winners are calling for a contest in kalush, which is in frankiv oblast, where oleg psiv, the vocalist of the band of the same name, is from, and oleksandr koltsova, a singer and former member of the national youth union, believes that the security situation in ukraine allowed to receive thousands of tourists from all over the world, even if we will soon win the war with russia and return everyone the territory ahead continued to restore the infrastructure and demining entire regions, she proposes to transfer the right to host the eurovision song contest to

poland . on behalf of ukraine, sweden volunteered the day before, the head of stockholm, anna kenich, already contacted the ukrainian ambassador and informed that the city is ready to host the contest instead of kyiv, fans from spain they also offer to hold a festival in madrid in the last spain hosted eurovision half a century ago in history there were already cases when the winning country refused to host the contest due to the war in 1979 an israeli artist won the contest or in the 80th eurovision the netherlands hosted public broadcasting already received the first documents regarding preparations for next year's eurovision song contest ahead of us are bureaucratic approvals and discussions with the european broadcasting union where it will take place

and finland in the event of an attack on these countries, a document on mutual security guarantees was signed this week why this agreement is so important right now, this week finland officially confirmed its intention to apply for nato membership in the coming days. it is expected that the finns will do it simultaneously with the swedes in nato promised not to delay and to quickly accept the scandinavian countries, after which they will be protected by the fifth article of the alliance, if one of the members is attacked, the entire bloc will fight. but until then , sweden and finland will essentially be left alone with a possible threat . spread his umbrella over stockholm and helsinki for the period of such a head of whom before the accession of these countries, well, nato, in a word, the anti-putin coalition is strengthening at various levels, and all western diplomacy is now working to suppress the kremlin, some of the secrets of this strategy

were exclusively revealed by volodymyr runtsya to christina quinn , us chargé d'affaires in ukraine, who returned to the us embassy in kyiv this week with american diplomats. - the richest countries in the world, which once had russia, they are calm because the west no longer plays semitones and has finally decided for the black and moron the most influential countries in the world are methodically developing a new strategy of gradual suppression of russia and even europe, which since 2014 has been trying to maintain economic ties with the kremlin , today conducts a completely different diplomacy of the eu, which is usually like a slow tanker that only takes a century to turn 90°, now they have made a 180° turn in diplomacy, as

far as russia is concerned, the eu no longer has a country left that was against providing ukraine with heavy weapons, even germany, which has always been a moderate putin fersteiner, finally decided to send us tanks and artillery, it is symbolic that the beginning of the anti-putin coalition was laid precisely in germany. three weeks ago, at the rammstein air base, 40 countries agreed on an action plan regarding military aid to ukraine and realized that they were dealing with a country that is destroying the entire security architecture of ukraine, even though it is not part of the elite club of the great seven, our minister of foreign affairs, dmytro kuleba, is also warmly welcomed and listened to here. this is another powerful signal to the kremlin, the strategy has changed, and no one will negotiate peacefully, this is in the literal sense historical footage and trolling on a global scale until may 9 in moscow celebrated the victory

us president joe biden signed the law on lend-lease for ukraine pensions at the kyiv residence of the american ambassador we are meeting with the us chargé d'affaires in ukraine christina quinn her comeback to kyiv is also a certain signal which invested in the new strategy of the event almost immediately after returning she exclusively revealed the details of the law about english for the facts of the week instead of going through the process of acquisition and procurement and then sending it is ukraine, you can simply lend it to ukraine and then it will be able to pay for it years later, that is why the essence of lendlease is, you know , there are no short terms for this, you do not need to have money right away to pay for it, but the loanlist is only one of the tools to support ukraine in this regard in washington they didn't stop, explains the diplomat, so what other trump card against putin in washington has already been almost pulled out of the sleeve resort is a $40

billion aid package that has already been approved by the house of representatives next, it must pass the senate then it will go to the president but it seems to me that it will happen with a high probability these two things together will help to support ukraine even more than now 40 billion dollars will go not only to the army , they will also help ukrainians to restore the economy and provide humanitarian aid to victims of russian aggression no country in the world in any the issue did not receive such support from the united states, and all because the americans admire the ability of ukrainians to fight for their freedom, which is what russia hoped for did not happen russia actually failed russia thought it would divide the allies but failed the allies are united more than ever and this helped to unite them even stronger and less dependent on russia therefore it was easier for them to adopt a new concept of suppressing the aggressor in europe, which has been sitting for a long time

it is more difficult to do this on the moscow energy needle, which is why, since 2014, it has so persistently promoted the idea of ​​the minsk agreements of the normandy format and appeasement of the aggressor, and in brussels they are already preparing the sixth powerful package of sanctions and it includes information on the purchase of russia's energy carriers, then their gas and oil will follow the same path as a warship, if the decision is made even after the war to return to the european energy market, russia will no longer be able to return to the european energy market after the war, after they lose, they will give up their troops, well technically it will be easy to do lift the sanctions on the world, but you won't back down on oil, because now europe is concluding new contracts, now europe is developing new supply routes on the street logistics. that is, it is already irreversible thanks to coordinated actions of the anti-putin coalition, russia is gradually driving itself back into the soviet past for a decade,

closing the window of opportunity with an iron curtain. moreover, by attacking ukraine, instead of weakening nato, diverting the alliance's attention from its borders, she predicted that two previously neutral countries, finland and sweden, would apply for accession in 2014 we have not even heard advice from all american and european politicians that russia and ukraine should be reconciled due to their shared historical past and geographical neighborhood, but now the civilized world has completely changed its strategy, now it has decided that it has pretended to strangle moscow, therefore, the noose that russia threw around its own neck is being tightened all the more because instead of conquering ukraine and destroying the west, moscow has united the entire civilized world against itself, as evidenced by the supply of weapons to ukraine and unprecedented sanctions and financial aid and energy independence, all this will eventually help ukraine win and establish peace in europe volodymyr runets facts

of the week ictv - the only news broadcast the nationwide marathon continues facts of the week new mass burials are growing around mariupol satellite images show that new mass graves have appeared in the nearest villages of stari krym and vynogradne russian looters are burying the dead mariupol residents there and using mobile crematoriums to hide the scale of their war crimes, but they will be investigated at the international level at the beginning of this process this week, the un human rights council voted for 33 countries of the world against only two eritrea and china, which continues to play its own game. meanwhile, we continue to collect evidence of russian war crimes and reveal the names and faces of russian cats that were brutalized in the

kyiv region. artem kuli has an exclusive on the identification of russian soldiers who committed atrocities in buch. every detail is important, like a lost chevron. documents or even calls to russia, so imagine how much information a seemingly ordinary smartphone could contain was lost by one of the occupiers in april into the hands of volunteers of the international the intelligence community informs napalm just such a phone, and its owner turned out to be a 30-year-old contract worker of the 64th separate motorized rifle brigade. what is his nationality? sergeant petro zakharov . we are a fact of the week. you're watching the movement drunk-drunk-drunk-drunk smooth brother i'm handsome in shape and here he breaks out into europe, really, as he says, into ukraine and he

breaks the bar but among all this there is unnecessary a few interesting files, for example, this video in lee shows one dude just like that, that is, he demonstratively shows the place of russians in the russian army, a video from alkovichirs and group photos of zakharov with his fellow soldiers also played a role, thanks to them, the volunteers managed to establish the personal data of about a hundred servicemen of the 64th brigade the army men of this particular unit are currently the most among those suspected of involvement in mass atrocities in their homes, their hands were tied, they were tortured and killed by the second group killed civilians are people who, well, if they ended up in the wrong place where they needed to be, that is, they went out for firewood or water, for example, journalist yevhen spirin worked as a volunteer or at the buchan morgue , so he knows about the causes of the deaths of these people. not from the documents. in general, according to the prosecutor's office, we are talking about

327 mass burials were planned for those tortured in them. and we know about this because they brought with them almost 45,000 packages for the corpses of the commander and subordinates, at least the commander and his data were also established. the 64th brigade was in charge colonel zadbek umorbekov omurbek is 38 years old. he was born in uzbekistan, but he has a chilyabinian registration, judging by the fines. he likes to drive fast and ignores the traffic rules. his wife also serves in the army in messengers . went to pursue his career because he did not have another moment and another opportunity, he received a brigade of hymns and sticks, which suffered colossal losses, the other day the sbu published a list of nine hundred surnames of the russian occupiers who committed crimes against the civilians of kyiv region, another two and a half

thousand were checked with a photo of of course we have their phones. well, we did not make them public because it is a difficult task . about six thousand calls to russia were recorded in the city, and thanks to this, prosecutor buchi says, it was possible to understand who exactly made them, maybe 6,700 were identified, and 11 people were given permission to detain all the persons given in this announcement i'm looking for a teenage commander of a processing plant in ukraine. i wasn't there for more than two years. i was able to identify him based on this video from the post office. he is standing among the russian soldiers who are sending home looted equipment. this person was sending the trunk lid in this way . documents, he saw him not only

in this video, but in person in buchi. during the occupation, i recognized him by his hands, they do not resemble women's hands, he has small hands because one and the same person, he is a circle, they are suspected of murdering at least four residents of buchi volodymyr lisovskyi recognized his executioner without hesitation well, he simply cut with a knife, and not once, yes, several times, it was volodymyr who took these shots where you can see how his neighbors are being executed he himself miraculously managed to survive, then they were taken out into the street from here to the corpses, put on their knees, er, shot at the back of the head, well, if they pretended that now we are being shot, this is only a small episode of a large-scale investigation, which is ukrainian the law enforcement officers promise to bring to an end as soon as possible a dozen different military formations of the occupier participated in the buchanan atrocities, the law enforcement officers of ukraine will take all measures to find their place of residence, their location, we

will also take measures to detain them, and we will also take measures to declare them internationally wanted therefore, law enforcement officers and journalists are carefully collecting the evidence base so that the executioners do not manage to avoid responsibility. in a small town in the kyiv region, the genocide of the ukrainian people, open source intelligence, which is used by internet spies, allows you to find the truth where even closed data on the internet is lacking. ictv facts of the week - the only news unconquered cities of ukraine is the cossack
