in these micro-enterprises, food was prepared in order to provide food on a daily basis, well, these are internally displaced persons, well, i called it the complex context of the kharkiv region, approximately such that we have a picture of the zaporizhia region, there is a front-line region and there is also internally displaced persons which is the transit of food through the city of zaporizhzhia , the same context in dnipropetrovsk, there is a part of the region that is in the war zone, there is another part of the region in which there is an internally displaced person well, there is such a region as he is probably on it, for example, where we work purely with internally displaced persons because there is no war zone, it is clear and maybe a few words about how to help your mission how to join it for everyone who wants to, because i asked about experience, well , we understand that the priority is psychological education , education is -e and uhu, the ability to rehabilitate

victims, yes, the ability to drive a car. if we talk about transporters, well, but obviously with regard to the volunteer front, those who want to, who do not have special experience in in the field of saving people, all this can be learned , correct me if i'm wrong, and how can those who would like to save people join you in your humanitarian mission, mr. yevhen, well, people who can provide financial assistance there are there can go to our website there there are all the details of where you can give this help, and we also have e-e groups on the social network on facebook, right on the website there as click we are on facebook and on the left there is e-e our central group and our e-e in each of the field office. we have such groups on facebook in the central group in

on facebook, it is called the humanitarian mission of proliska. there we constantly post updates about the vacancies we need and about the volunteers we need, because we have operational activities that are carried out in some villages where, for example, we do not have the opportunity to hire a person but there is a need for a volunteer there to distribute products or for something, all this information is constantly updated in ot er thank you mr. yevgeny so i think everyone has heard who wants to join this absolutely noble mission and er to organizations that he trusts, in particular the united nations, here is prolisok, find him and join the humanitarian mission of prolisok, i apologize, i apologize to prolisok, and oleg kotenko , the commissioner for missing persons under special circumstances, has already joined us, mr. ologu good day good day, let's talk about

what the new institute of the commissioner for persons disappeared under special circumstances this is a new institute in our country, he started functioning in may of the current year and actually assumed the position oleg kotenko, a participant in the revolution of dignity, originally from donbas, who in 2014-15 was the spokesman for the national security and defense council, oleg, well, since these are all your first broadcasts in a new position, please tell us in a few words what you have been doing for the past few years. before assuming the position of a new commissioner. what experience did you have that became unique for this appointment? what exactly did you do at the beginning of the war, at the beginning of the already full-scale russian aggression? a few words about yourself. of the missing, me and my organization, a public

organization, a group of patriots. we started back in the 14th year , because, then, the first military actions, the attack of russia on ukraine, showed that this is a very important topic and someone is responsible for these issues. uh, we were also engaged in the search for missing persons. we were also engaged in the release of prisoners of our military and civilians . great help to me in this so, when russia's full-scale aggression against ukraine began after february 24, i, as a citizen of ukraine who stood up for the defense of my country, wanted to stand up for the defense of my country , took up a weapon and went to defend it. it's just our kyiv region, because now i live in

kyiv region and i thought that this was my duty. that's it. when the question arose that it was very important that there are many people in captivity, there are many people without distinction, then i was offered this position. - at first i didn't immediately agree to it because i thought that was all weapons in hands - this is the protection of the state, er, the work is authorized - it is not, not very. let's say yes. the work, well, what i can do, but i was convinced that this is my war and this is my front, and that i should do it because i have i have a certain experience in this, and i have a ready-made construction of the work, i have a call center , it worked, it works, it has been working since the 17th year.

now we are already communicating with those people who are missing or are already in captivity today's time, by the way, i'm now in odessa, where we held a meeting with the families of those who were captured and disappeared. these are the people who were on the snake and were captured from the first minutes of the full-scale war, here we have such description and i think that it helps me a lot now my advisors are now where are these people who work for me in the 14th year this is the analytical department and these are the people who are responsible for the concentration and these are the ones who deal with legal i have questions in this regard it was probably a little bit easier, what kind of people who don't have this case actually, mr. olago, can you name

at least the number of missing people, in particular , soldiers of the armed forces of ukraine now, well, look at the number, you can name it, but this one the number cannot be exact because there are always people who have found themselves because there are a lot of people who are found. they turn to us for help because the person and relatives have not been able to contact us for 3-3 days. they are already calling us. i'll just tell you that it's a lot people were found after, after i already said the last number, there were a lot of people, and i understand that it would be incorrect to name some numbers because they really do not correspond to reality for a certain time because people submitted an application and three days later they already found someone after three days someone after a week someone after 10 days ago they didn't disappear just disappeared yes i'll just say then well an example of

my friend whose husband is er in donbas also for four days or more they were considered missing he and 20 more of his brothers are missing. this is a company from which was somewhere in the area of ​​toshkivka and in the end it turned out that they were just leaving the environment and all 21 of them all left the environment alive the total losses were against them there. as far as i know, 10 years of people. they lost almost hundreds of people. but they managed to get out. is this how widespread the story is? the main main example is how people get into these lists of missing people. well , first of all. i will immediately answer the first question. it is true this practice is common when scouts go

on reconnaissance, it is a group of 8 to 12 to 15 people, and when they are ambushed, they leave and there is no understanding. they died, they were captured because they did not fit. the routes that were followed then and this is a lot, and i know a lot of such examples when people really return, how do people get on the list of missing forests, well, first of all, there is the armed forces and there are border guards, there are national guardsmen, they have commanders who submit lists missing persons to their own units, then all this goes to the national information bureau by the national bureau - these lists are processed and we see them because we have missing people, that is, from the words of the commanders themselves, and then we start the search, there are searches , there are official searches, there are unofficial ones.

we say that this should be an official search and that we should contact the national police with a statement that a person has disappeared somewhere, well, in order for them to start a search, this is an official search, when we have the opportunity to search in the occupied territories, and then we have an understanding of where the person is, was he found in captivity, was he found dead, or do we still not find this person, then the search continues, sir, are you in contact with the relatives of the azov residents and the defenders of the snake, what is the current status of these defenders of ours, what does the current situation with their release look like is this issue progressing somehow, if you can share the information with us, yes, look, i really communicate with the azov people from azov steel, eh, i had a meeting with them, about three weeks ago, eh, the time is literally just now

there, about half an hour ago, we finished a meeting with relatives, relatives, which relatives disappeared on the snake, we communicate with them, we explain to them what to do , what to do, and the most important question is where are our relatives and how can we free them, how is it possible, there is an algorithm of actions which we suggest to the relatives is , first of all, to contact the state authorities, and it is through meetings that we show that the state has not forgotten about our relatives, we care about all our relatives and people who are in captivity, and we want this to be our contact it's literally there now a few times there, the pride headquarters, which is located at 37 spayskaya street, where all the state bodies are included, and we invite people to this headquarters, where people work and can

answer the question, what status is this person in now , or what is the status of another person prisoners or the statuses of the missing persons, here we have an understanding that negotiations are underway, the state of ukraine is conducting negotiations for the release of people, and it doesn't matter if it's azovstal . it is difficult to talk to the russian side because they have their own vision of this matter. we want to take all our people as quickly as possible. and they are playing some kind of politics . and please share information about what is the most difficult thing in your work right now. how is the search for missing defenders who are being sought by their

relatives and who are probably no longer alive? at under what circumstances did the person disappear, if we have the understanding that there was shelling, uh, we occupied the territory , then it is very difficult to understand whether the person was captured or died somewhere, maybe or copies, this is especially difficult when we already have the understanding that this person uh, is alive and is in captivity this is also what we imagine to be unofficial with these possibilities eh then we really inform eh unit commanders unit commanders inform relatives that a person is in captivity we do not say very much eh about this case where in captivity really we let's talk about their health. how are they feeling there? well, that's the most important thing for their relatives, and there's one more thing. such is our pain. we can't do

it in any way. we can't force russia to comply with the geneva conventions. prisoners of war have the opportunity to communicate with their relatives through correspondence or through phone conversations, this is our main problem right now, so that we can make contact with the prisoners, and then they have the status. well, in my case, to the extreme, they go from the status of many disappearances to the status of prisoners. who may have died, we cannot take them from some areas because hostilities are going on there, we will not be able to take the bodies, not by our efforts, not during the negotiations with russia about what our people are located there, they also cannot go there, so we are conducting negotiations about silence mode so that there is an opportunity to go in and pick up your people, but all this

is going on. well, it is very difficult, gentlemen. well, let's talk about it already - they said, in principle, that's how it is, in conclusion, and for those who can apply, i just joined if you don't have a connection again even with your relatives relatives who are at the front in the war, how can i reach you mr. oleg kotenka, how do i act? once again, just make the algorithm clearer. let's give instructions. here's the algorithm of actions. it's on the website of the ministry of reintegration, but i'll repeat it when it 's done. i haven't seen it, i don't know, first of all, if a person from the contact has disappeared, then you need to write a statement to the national police so that they take him on the record and start looking for this person, this is the first step , the second step is to contact the national information bureau and say what really a person has disappeared and that a police report has already been written to us and the third step is to contact

the call center of the office of the missing person's representative with a sign that is, someone to contact us , phone numbers where you can contact zero 800 339 247 if a person is abroad and he cannot nano this phone call, then you need to call a smaller phone 095 80096 04:21 here everything is for everyone messengers there vibers telegrams whatsapp signals then you can write there, drop the application there , if you call me, then there the research center will offer to fill out a questionnaire so that it would be better for us to search and it is clear who we are looking for, these are the first three steps. well, they must be completed by themselves, and then we can personally approach each person who has disappeared, and then we are also engaged in the search and return

home it is better when they come back alive. this is very good, mr. oleg. and finally, what tasks do you set for yourself for the next few months, so what would you like to change with the appearance of the office of the commissioner for missing persons with your presence in well, first of all, i want to launch a register of missing persons, for which our ministry of internal affairs is responsible for this, we are currently finalizing the law, we need to introduce some changes, firstly, secondly, i want everyone there was a representative of the region, my coordinator, who will coordinate the actions of my office, communicate more precisely with relatives, communicate with the local government, manage search groups that will be created in each region . i'll definitely do it, and that's it

the main thing is that i want to organize the work in such a way that the bodies that are handed over to us by the russian side, so that if our president is there, people who have died, that as soon as possible they are taken away from the occupied territories or uncontrolled territories where ukraine does not control these territories, to open several more such points of handing over bodies to us this is the main thing for today. oleg kotenko, the commissioner for missing persons, joined our broadcast under special circumstances. thank you, mr. oleg and andriy kovalev, press officer of the 112th kyiv of the territorial defense brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, we are joined by mr. andriyu radio to welcome our mr. andriyu, we congratulate you greetings friends glory to ukraine glory to the heroes glory to the heroes glory to the heroes

what is the mood of our military in kyiv oblast share the latest news the most important thing about our 120th territorial defense brigade part of our e-e forces remains on the lines of the defense of kyiv because the danger for kyiv has never been divided. i want to remind the kyivans once again that the war is not over and that this danger exists in the direction of kyiv now a lot of defense forces of ukraine are concentrated - it's not only the armed forces, other units, the other day mr. zaluzhny announced that the enemy will no longer be able to move the front in the direction of kyiv, and this is really true because he is here now a large number of units are concentrated in kyiv, in particular, the 612th territorial defense. our servicemen, men and women, are on round-the-clock duty at the borders of the defense of kyiv

, who have not yet been involved in carrying out such daily service there, are being recruited into the daily uniform training data, in fact, and the medicine of fire training, anti-tank combat, others, say , the tactics of fighting in the city, also a large part of our units are now deployed to the line of confrontation in the east and in the south, and we are proud of the fact that the patriotically motivated kyivans of our brigade are fighting now they are fighting there. last week, one of the divisions of our brigade in slobozhanshchyna advised us very much because, in cooperation with ukrainian artillerymen, they destroyed two warehouses of russian ammunition, burned some russian equipment and of the enemy's manpower, that's why the kyivans are on the frontlines now giving good and bad luck to the russian occupiers of gordiyiv and where, in principle, the russian occupiers feel opposition in our troops, you know, you start what they said, which has already

turned into a meme with the snake island as a gesture of good will, the russian army is fleeing in packs, the same thing happened there in slobozhanshchyna, in particular, i would also like to tell an interesting fact, one of our fighters, with the call sign johnny, recently became, well, actually a weapon of mass impression for the russian propagandists this a serviceman of our 112th territorial defense brigade, who on february 24, thousands of motivated patriotic kyivans joined our 112th territorial defense brigade, volunteered for volunteers, he, he, he is losing weight, originally from afghanistan. he was born in afghanistan, but for many years since 98- th year he lives in ukraine, became a citizen of ukraine, i talked to johnny, i say to johnny, what is your nationality, he says, i am ukrainian, i am ukrainian, i protect ukraine, he

serves in one of the divisions of our brigade, they filmed stories about him, and in particular, there was the bbc, and here it is er, the bbc story got on the er russian tv channel, where skabeeva and other propagandists called our fighter our brother johnny, who is, by the way, a ukrainian citizen, allegedly an afghan mercenary who swore an oath to er americans and the like. that is, this is what russian propagandists usually do. and absolutely a lie, and if our fighter is able to remotely break many thousands of kilometers away, so to speak that they are convinced that each of our fighters can just as well not give peace to russian propagandists well, they literally aired

a bbc story on their tv channel without bills where they talked about johnny, and in fact, he is actually of afghan origin, he can scare the russian occupiers so remotely what can we say about our and other fighters , clearly this winner and mr. andrii, in fact, also regarding this evacuation from the svyatohorsk lavra . to figure it out and i don't fully understand the donetsk region, but we are asking mr. andrii kovalev here as religious scholars, because in fact, this is really a unique situation and the unique idiocy of the russians. over the humanitarian corridor, this situation has been going on for several weeks, and the last time, thanks to

the efforts of our intelligence, our military, it was possible to evacuate the entire world of people, such a small group of civilians, among them a baby who is literally there a few days ago, she was born on the territory of the monastery . so why are the russians holding hostage the mountain lavra, which was all this time the lavra of the uoc mp? that is, it was subordinated directly to cyril, not the epiphany, how can we explain it, that is, i want to remind all our viewers that the svyatogorsk lavra really still belongs to the moscow lavra of the patriarchate, well, you see, this is once again a confirmation that nothing is sacred for the russian occupiers , and even what they call their russian shrines, in ukraine, they are ready to destroy, they are ready to shell. i want to remind you a few kilometers from the svyatogorsk lavra, which is in fact an ancient monastery, there was a

wooden whale, that is, a branch of such a branch monastery of the svyatogorsk lavra, which was called the st. scythian monastery, it was completely wooden, and the russian occupiers with their artillery completely leveled these st. skrits with their rockets i want to remind you that it is a great pity that dozens of monks from the inhabitants of the sviatohirsk lavra have died in the walls of the lavra. by the way, say the detachment of the russian artillery, the russian propagandists , the sermon there, the death of these monks, these priests, more of the svyatogorsk lavra, attribute it to the armed forces of ukraine, that’s what they usually do, well, it’s just evidence that there really is nothing holy for them, and in fact, the idea of ​​protecting orthodoxy there, the idea of ​​orthodoxy in general is nothing more. it is not even a screen for the terrorist putin

regime for the terrorist russian troops, because you know, in fact, this is a very illustrative situation during the defense of kyiv, we recorded all the priests who were collaborators of the moscow patriarchate who tried to help the troops of the occupying forces of the russian federation in the kyiv region. on the territory of his temple complex, the russian occupiers organized a barracks for personnel in his church, an ammunition warehouse, moved some food warehouses of the russian army there, sanctions, priests his henchmen advised the military personnel of the russian federation how to move around the kyiv region and where to go because they had outdated maps. when people

came to this priest, his parishioners asked him why they let those murderous terrorists into the church. i told them clearly that i will not fire at the tiles in the church end of quote that is , we hear in fact that the russian occupiers and moscow priests clearly understand that the ukrainian armed forces will never hit religious buildings at least at least international conventions protect all religious buildings from war, but also conscience and, you know, the feeling of spirituality and the feeling of something holy protects against the fact that our troops will not, but we have hundreds of thousands of examples in the kyiv region when the russian occupying forces literally destroyed churches, for example from the situation in the village of yasnohorodka were at the entrance to the village, the russian occupiers shot the priest of the orthodox church of ukraine father rostyslav with a tank machine gun. and by the way, they shelled and almost destroyed the church in the village

yasnohorodka, which, by the way, also belonged to the moscow patriarchate at that time, now it has passed to the ptu, obviously such shelling and the visit of the russian occupiers are speeding up, that is, they are making it easier for people to speed up the transition from the moscow patriarchate to the canonical church. but we are seeing the same situation now. with the svyatogorsk lavra, well, it is clear that there are such characters who are waiting and counting on the russian troops as certain liberators. in the basements of this lavra, a subversive intelligence group under the command of a citizen of the russian federation and an international terrorist sat in the basement of this lavra for two weeks. strelkov and strelkov admitted in his interview that they were received there by local monks from the sviatogorsk lavra. they give

in this svyatohorsk lavra, it was from the svyatohorsk lavra that the occupation of donbas began, it was from the svyatohorsk lavra, in the summer of 2014, the sabotage intelligence group of hyrkina advanced on kramatorsk slovyansk, where did it start? here is this attempt to take over donetsk. it all started from the sviatogorsk lavra . by the call sign of the bags he said that for a long time the sviatgora lavra had been based, for example, the so-called kadyrivkas who tried to seize donbas. therefore, it is obvious and now it is obvious that the sviatgora lavra and the monks of the sviatgora lavra, who obviously calculated or carried out honor, the order to take cover, the chorus, they themselves found themselves in the line of fire and themselves suffer from the war that, unfortunately, they brought to our ukraine, thank you very much, andriy kovalev
