an explosion rang out in energodar shevchyk and his bodyguards were injured, and the policeman ended up in the hospital after that. he did not appear in public. but they were so worried about this case that even the investigative committee of russia reported the beginning of an investigation into an attempt on a collaborator, or the orcs themselves decided to eliminate him. it is not known for sure whether our special services are with local partisans, but a pleasant fact remains a pleasant fact. that's all for today. and if there are traitors in your city, write to me at this email address or just on facebook and we will make these scoundrels famous together my name is yevhen miklushka we will see you in exactly a week death to enemies war in ukraine the main topic for ukrainians victory and loss analysis and forecasts, politics and geopolitics,

tired of defending ukraine i congratulate the program of the ukrainian voice service on the air time of america, i am its presenter ostap yarysh, more security aid from the usa will soon arrive in ukraine, ukrainian defense minister oleksiy reznikov announced this following a conversation with the head of the pentagon, lloyd mostin, the heads of the defense departments also discussed holding a new meeting of the contact group on defense in the rammstein format, the latest is the fourth such the meeting took place at the end of july and brought together representatives from more than 50 countries of the world, volodymyr zelenskyi said in an interview published in the washington post the day before spoke about the importance of western weapons for ukraine, according to him, the delivery of heavy weapons significantly

changed the situation on the battlefield, serious capabilities that we needed, such as himers, now everyone sees there or er, artillery 155-a tanks planes i am silent on this and we have all this was not there and there was no possibility to buy it. well, i told them that our state will not run anywhere, we are ready to fight , give us weapons as soon as they were handed over to us, we fought, and in turn 17 famous american american experts on the pages of the hill called us president joe biden to sharply increase aid to kyiv to support the ukrainian counteroffensive, in particular, analysts call for an increase in the number of himers installations and to provide ukraine with long-range attack missiles with a range of

300 km. captivated by russia after 2014, experts emphasize. meanwhile, in the us, the pre-election campaign for the midterm congressional elections, which are scheduled for november, is gaining momentum intra-party elections are underway, the so-called premiers, which are supposed to determine the only candidates from the parties in each district, and there are already the first results of the 10 republicans in the house of representatives who voted for the impeachment of donald trump, the primaries won only two more about what this means, we will talk to catherine, the institution that joins to us from the congress, katya. congratulations to you. congratulations to you , ostap. wait here. let's figure it out. tell us more about the first important results that we have already seen at the congresses, specifically for the democrats of these the primaries do not come with any surprises for them, the main goal is to preserve what already exists in the majority of kosovs, the main intrigue takes place around the republican primaries because, according to the american media, the

very chances of old trump as a possible candidate for the next elections depend on the support of the nominees supported by donald trump presidential elections in 2024, currently most of the candidates supported by donald trump have won the republican primaries, one of the most interesting intrigues, which you have already mentioned, is the fate of ten republicans who at one time supported trump's second impeachment after the storming of the capitol on january 6. it is interesting that only two of these ten won the republican primaries, four decided not to run for office at all, and also read the enemy. they lost the fight against nominees who were supported by donald trump. yesterday's vote by republican les cheney and the state in bayoming, who was not only a republican person who supported the second impeachment against donald trump, but was also the vice chairman of the special the committee in the house of representatives to investigate the assault on the sixth of january, so she lost to another republican who was supported by donald

trump - this is lawyer harriet goethe hegegeman. and she actually said that her victory would not have been possible without the support of donald trump. he suggests listening to yesterday's statement to both republics just now there was another one today we achieved what we fought for we returned to ayoming its only seat in the congress but i didn't do it myself and already we are all very grateful to president trump who recognizes that wyoming has only one representative in congress and we have to take that into account because the clear and unwavering support for trump that he has shown from the beginning led us to victory today listen two years ago i won this primary with 73% of the vote i could easily do it again the way was open but that would have required me to agree with president trump's lies about the

2020 election this would require me to contribute to trump's current efforts to destroy our democratic system and attack the foundations of our republic this was a path that i could not and did not want to go, he got the majority of votes in these primaries she won and i called her to recognize her victory these primaries are over but now the real work begins really interesting statements of the candidate katya and what does this say about the future congressional elections experts who factors may become important for american voters, this is my november and directly fell here representatives will be sorted through all 435 seats, instead, 35 representatives will make their way into the sonata from the representative ranks at least things are needed accordingly for the parties to choose those candidates who will compete in these midterm elections, and despite what we are trying to do, it is happening among the democrats as

well as among the republicans. of course , the biggest intrigue and the biggest attention is not happening among the republicans because it is the republicans who are now predicted to have a majority in the congress during the results the process of these midterm elections is evidenced by the american mass media, such american experts as well as the historical factor, because traditionally, during midterm elections, the party that is the opponent of the president's party and, in particular, at the same time , an expert with whom the russian voice of america spoke claims that despite the fact that the republicans are predicted to win these midterm elections, so to speak, the democrats are also taking certain steps that can help to make these midterm elections better. at least this is what expert lincoln claims about the process mitchell and with whom the russian voice of america spoke offers to listen to his comment right now until the end to fiat, currently the republicans remain the favorites to return the majority in the house

representatives, but the results of the senate are unpredictable, they can go either way, meanwhile , the decision to overturn roe v. weide, which guaranteed the right to vote, clearly helped the democrats, it will convince white women over 40 who are not sure which party to vote for that they should support the democrats this effectively returns the white katya voters to the democrats, whatever the results, after all, the majority of congresses, both republicans and democrats , strongly support ukraine, at least state that this is one of the last major initiatives that received preliminary approval in the house of representatives . they were related to the training of ukrainian pilots on american fighter jets, in particular the f-15 . the congress has several initiatives, and important for ukraine and the training of ukrainian aviators is one of them, and in particular, among the positive news for ukraine is the fact that this was included in the defense budget

the amendment on the training of ukrainian pilots on modern american fighter jets, the truth is when exactly this will take place is unclear at the moment, it is not known, at the same time yesterday i managed to talk to one of the ukrainian pilots who said that despite the fact that there are no starting dates for such training, they are already preparing and it was very, very positively received such a possibility, and even in spite of an active war with russia, they are now already preparing for the possibility of such training, i suggest listening to his comment just now, and regarding the training, so far we are only we are waiting, we are preparing, we are working on language training, and the guys are all impressed by the fact that there is a chance for this, that is, already these draft laws and in general, this attention is international. it gave the boys hope that this it is really possible

to implement, and it was motivated by the fact that , even now, even at the redeployment bases on surface roads throughout ukraine, the guys are still trying to somehow allocate time for self-training and to remember the english language a little bit, and in order to really integrate as quickly as possible into it training, when will there really be a solution for that directly in the training, just for now, we are just waiting, let me remind you that in peacetime, such training took about a year to readjust for the future to learn on the new modern fighters, at the same time, as the ukrainian aviator with whom i spoke says, and for for the accelerated scheme of these trainings, if they will take place in the near future, and it will still take somewhere around six months, that is, it will still take at least six months, and such terms are

agreed not only in the ukrainian aviator, but also american aviators, exactly six months will be needed for the accelerated term of such exercises, and we will really monitor katya. we also heard that american legislators and officials say that this initiative is more of a long- term, urgent perspective, but of course we will monitor how these events will develop they also say thank you very much i will remind you kateryna lisunova was with you in connection with the us congress and we are moving on to ukrainian topics because she was accompanied by kidnappings of civilians by russian troops in kherson the international organization filonorets watch is called among the reasons for such persecution the collection of information and attempts to intimidate the civilian population in order to force people to stop resisting. voice of america journalists found relatives and friends of some missing ukrainians. according to them, people continue to be

detained and now after which the russian military takes them in an unknown direction. the topic continues or maybe vykysyan and yurii mamon are sometimes the most unexpected sources of clues about the location of kidnapped ukrainians, karina's father a gardener and the owner of a shoe store in kherson, he joined the territorial defense on the very first day of the war, the russian military took him prisoner on april 6, came to pick him up at work, at first , according to his daughter, igor's social networks were captured, where they published appeals on his behalf to the territorial defense fighters kherson stopped resisting and surrendered their weapons, then he appeared on the air of a pro-russian channel in kherson. spetsnaz from russia detained a detachment of defensive defense plans . fall on ios kherson video yes, just detained deployed by the security forces, the detachment was covered in the course of planning the next terrorist attack, among those detained was a ukrainian businessman who sponsored the neo-nazi

formations of azov and the right sector with the money of kherson residents, and on april 21 he was shown in an ntv report about the conditions of detention of allegedly captured ukrainian border guards. back." further in some sources that they caught terrorists who sponsor neo -nazis. a very very dangerous gardener, and on other channels they said that he himself surrendered and he, because you understand that russia - it's good , that's how it would be in a few ways. for me, not one situation is true, and none of them are true, and uh, for ukrainian prisoners of war one person from sevastopol was assigned, it became possible to prove that he is really there, that he is there, that he needs to be exchanged, then our deputy prime minister irina vereshchuk called and said that we are working on it and that it is working.

before, nobody wrote very much, i think. well, it means that something will happen in a week, and the next day he will call me, he said. relatives of prisoners who managed to return home talk about abuse in places of deprivation of liberty, among whom there are women , their hair was cut short, they were forced to stand on their feet all day, they were beaten and electric shockers were used against them, the prison in sevastopol is just a sanatorium in comparison with those that were in kherson because people were just mocked there kherson became almost the main center from where civilians of ukraine are kidnapped ishchenko my dad he is 46 years old he is very young he is a good person who always wants to help others and he did it and is doing it my dad was kidnapped by the russians in

kherson, this is the worst thing that happened to me in this war, he was stolen right from our house in kherson and my grandmother saw everything with her own eyes. she told me that they broke our door and entered the house, they tried something, we don't know what but they didn't find anything, they took the phones , the laptop and went in an unknown direction with my dad , my family doesn't know anything, it's been more than two months, but we don't know the reasons, we don't know where he is, we don't know if he's alive or not, love iryna horobtsova, a resident kherson was taken away from home on may 13, 2022. she helped the red cross. i remember when that was the first week, when everything was just beginning. she helped transport doctors from the region to the regional children's hospital. around 10 a.m., people in military uniforms arrived

they didn't introduce themselves in any way tom, but they took the computer, two mobile phones and brought in the mother, of course, she started crying, as if they were asking them to stop, what did they say. don't worry, the woman. we will interrogate her, find out some details, and return her in the evening . how do i go home, i haven't been home for a month and a half, kherson - it's generally alive, it's a live line, they're really alive, we have an insane amount of people kidnapped there. меня выставлеными бизнесыми ето место комментарии комментарие компьютер высокой спортивный место выполнительского сопротивления there, and this will continue further, therefore, there is such a large number of civilians and

political prisoners yuri mamon anushevetisyan voice of america and the full-scale russian invasion demonstrated the importance of unmanned aerial vehicles devices, the ukrainian military essentially uses everything that can fly and shoot the enemy, but drones are constantly shot down, so the air park is needed to update, that is why the ukrainian company for the production of drones for farmers changed its direction of work, experience and capabilities allowed to create copters not only for farmers, but also for the armed forces of ukraine and zaporizhzhia, say kateryna markova and viktor petrovych, engineer anton has been creating unmanned aerial vehicles for more than 10 years for the needs of farmers in peacetime, his company produced, in particular, drones capable of flying indoors, for example, warehouses of the first full-scale invasion of russia into ukraine the antona company began to repair drones damaged during hostilities, during repairs and

communication with the military, the idea arose to develop their own drones for the needs of the front, the guys came with a request to repair the drone. wanted and we say we can do it why not make an individual drone with the necessary military characteristics it costs about three and a half thousand dollars, its advantage, in particular, is that such an apparatus is more difficult to track and shoot down accordingly, because mass-produced drones ugh frequencies and transmit their data, in addition, the military can order a drone for their own specific needs, we make them absolutely unique, this is a series, we can repeat them , everything we do can be set to small, and in the future, if the effectiveness is proven this copter is in a large series, the uniqueness of this copter is that the uniqueness of this copter

is that it is modular, it is light, you can hang various payloads on it load capacity 5 kg and flight range 10 km. anton's contact details are not disclosed by anyone, the military and volunteers give them only to trusted people . uh, that's why we started switching to these individual drone projects, because they're not so uh, well, they're not shot down like that, and uh, that's not how you track them, but anton can make drones cheaper by simplifying their functionality and capabilities, but it can also, on the contrary , improve its devices, according to anton, the most effective uav is a device in the form of an airplane with a

vertical takeoff" the advantage of the airplane is the length of the flight - this is the need for a high class of pilot training but we have airplanes with a vertical takeoff that does not require a high-class pilot during the summer and landing, he does not need to take into account the wind or the trees, this is essentially the same copter at the time of take-off, you can launch it from a clearing in the forest from the roof of a house from the yard from where any device developed by anton and his colleagues can perform tasks in automatic mode, the operator prescribes a task so that it takes a photo of the given coordinates. thus, the drone does not need radio communication with the operator and, accordingly, does not give any signs of presence, this makes it impossible to detect it by special means. it will fly far away from the operator. yes, it can fly far from the operator, when we take the copter, we are talking

about flights for 3-5-10 km, the plane we are collecting can fly for 115 minutes of its cruise speed - 80 km/h 80 km/h if we put a load on it in the form of a video camera that does automatic filming, then it can shoot at a distance of 40 km from the take-off point and return independently without communication with the operator or the ground station with weapons, says anton practically it is impossible , you need to launch guided missiles, according to the engineer, his drones can be equipped with artificial intelligence capable of analyzing images and telling you exactly where the enemy is hiding, anton also assures that if necessary and if there are appropriate of its components, its engineers can even assemble an attack drone like bayraktar. today, anton and his team have delivered

about 20 self-made drones to the armed forces. ukrainian children and teenagers witnessed a rather unusual performance for the american audience in the play mama on skype. its premiere in ukraine took place in one of bomb shelter of lviv in the spring of this year, now the young actors went to the usa for a tour. in several states , these funds were collected during the trip, they plan to transfer to the purchase of a military aircraft for the armed forces of ukraine, iryna solomko learned more about the history and aspirations of the children, the director and founder of the iron dale theater tells about the play mom via skype, i read in the new

york times that in april of this year, director oleg onyshchenko organized a premiere screening in one of lviv's bomb shelters, where the journalist ended up a colleague of grace's newspaper saw the article and sent it to him, he thought it would make me happy and it made me so happy that i immediately went on facebook, found everyone and said come to the usa this project is deeply connected to my life's work all my life i have been saying that theater is important it is not only entertainment, it is important for the life of the community , and when i read that children perform in bomb shelters in such conditions, they could do anything, but they decided to play a play, it reminded me why i became an actor, why i founded theater and why is he drinking like that, you hear us go ukrainian actress maria onyshchak says there should be a husband in new york, he is also an actor, teacher of the lviv school of the free and indifferent and director of the theater studio at the school oleg onyshchak even before the war, oleg decided to put on a children's play, mother skype, which tells about children with

parents who work abroad, this is a play. social orphanhood is a topic that has come up from time to time in the social environment of our ukraine. parents wanted a better life for their children. and cared about the good ones and their future, and we convey the message of this play. it's as if we and parents wanted a better future, but better for the child than the presence of mother and father and these and families in general, there is nothing better for a child. the premiere was to take place in in july, however, a full-scale russian invasion destroyed these plans, maria says oleg immediately left the teams and joined the ranks of defenders of ukraine against children, he did not leave when he had the weekend to work on the play unfortunately, this play is relevant in in the conditions of the war, because many children were left orphans, many saw with their own eyes how

their parents were killed, a lot of people left ukraine, as i eavesdrop on how my children are now giving interviews to local journalists in america. contacted oleg and invited him and the children to the united states. i had no idea how difficult it would be to organize this trip. now many people are trying to leave ukraine and some people are now receiving information that the reception at the consulate in warsaw will be in three years so our congressman and senators sent faxes to warsaw every day with requests to give these children a chance to come to america and quickly schedule an interview for them. people's deputy nataliya pipa joined grace's help to solve the visa issue, oleg onishchak also got a visa, but he couldn't come because is a military serviceman pipa adds that it is important for ukraine to continue to actively tell the world about what is happening and children are

the best cultural diplomats, i saw when even twelve-year-old boys were interested in performances and it says a lot and the performance of these children, well, the young actors are fascinating, they take their mission very seriously and, despite their age, they talk about the war in a completely adult way and to our army, and remind us that war is not a joke and everyone should remember about this and support the country. we also want to remind the american people that this is not just news, it is a reality for us and our people is our terrible reality, but cultural diplomacy is only part of the mission, small actors also collect funds for a plane for the armed forces of ukraine when they are seen a bomb shelter is a journalist of the new york times. well, the letter is your biggest dream. they said then that the war should end and that we want to raise money for an airplane for the armed forces of ukraine so that they could not defend before the performance in new york. the children had already

performed in philadelphia and the state of connecticut, where they managed to collect 4 1/2 thousand dollars. there are still a number of performances ahead. they said that we will bring it to the wing, and that is why they are very motivated. they are happy for everyone, it is incredible. we count it together, write it down, collect it, and they just that is, they are so happy even our friend from the kurbas theater, yulia franko, came and gave them 10 dollars in each envelope, and they collected it all and put it in a box with people, that's why she says i was just amazed despite the busy schedule and important mission actors and actresses are primarily children, so one of the tasks of the band was to distract them a little from the war, all together. they went to the world-famous british musical the lion king. it was incredible to see the lion king through their eyes in the first 10 minutes. just couldn't hold back the tears they were so excited it was incredible and when they got

to times square and got off the subway one of the younger girls said did i die and go to heaven and most of us think it's a filthy place and we don't want to be there and this girl. that's all you need to know about these children. they have so much life and i hope they will live a long time. the play's purpose is to tell about social orphanhood at the beginning of the war . at the end of the war, the daughter of maria and oleg hannusya sang her own song. she wrote it in the first week of the war in this song, a 12-year-old girl talks about how the war changed the lives of ukrainians , about the fact that it is a strong and brave nation that protects its land, culture and freedom from new york iryna solomko voice of america
