a new one pierced the awning in several cities, the metal structures bent a little, and this is a fragment of something, uh, a slab of some kind, it fell, punched two slabs there and two 10 mm each, plus a pallet. and yesterday around 8:00 in the evening, uh, russian rockets again hit the central part of the city of kharkiv, one of the rockets hit in front of the building of the kharkiv regional military administration, the second rocket hit another administrative building behind it, which was very significantly damaged by this explosion. and there are no more dead or injured people at the scene of the accident today at around seven o'clock in the morning, the russian army also shelled already private private sector private households located in the kyiv district of the city of kharkiv,

and a 70-year-old man was injured by this shelling from rocket salvo systems. - for a couple of days, i went to bed at six o'clock, at first it was very noisy, well, we were still lying in the house, then we went outside for 15 or half a week and already entered the house, he was ahead of me. just a little bit from him and she shuddered so much , there was just some kind of horror. well, there is so much and there is a lot of blood in the house, there are a lot of rags, we have many windows, the words to god are whole, i leaned into him like this here and there so hard, hard like that, clubbing here and there against the wall such as clubs of fire behind the wall there well, thank god that in the

garden and not in someone's house from the hurricanes they shot at us on the street there was this ostapa some cluster shells well it flew into the roof and hit the garden it flew to the neighbors also in the garden it flew when the shooting started very loudly i grabbed the dog i quickly went down to the first floor , we sat there, it became quieter, then we went up, let’s look, i want to say to the people of kharkiv: don’t relax, because any moment can fly by and turn around to work on the roof, patch it . i saw that as a result of the nighttime shelling of the residential quarters of the energodar in the zaporizhzhia region, 10 people

received shrapnel injuries of varying degrees of severity. this was reported by the energodar mery - dmytro orlov, the president's office said that russia is shelling energodar in order to intimidate the local population, in particular , the adviser to the head of the president's office mykhailo podolyak said that russia is systematically shelling this city to hide its nuclear crimes and to make a picture for propaganda and to blame the armed forces of ukraine . stated that the city was shelled by the armed forces of ukraine, here it is important to say that the shelling of the city happened just before the upcoming visit of the megaten mission, which for a long time hoped for ukraine august 8, 22 explosions in the center of the city, explosions right in the city, civilian cars, a residential area, everything is burning. it was energodar. we

just showed a video from there. well, the director general of the international atomic energy agency magathera fael grossi announced that the agency's delegation will arrive at the zaporizhzhia npp already this week, the delegation is personally headed by money, and in addition to him, the mission also included 13 experts from countries mostly neutral to russia , the new york times reported about this representatives of either the united states or great britain, whom russia considers unfriendly, are not included in the list of members of the mission, notes the publication well, and on the megatep website it is reported that the mission must assess the physical damage caused to the objects of the nuclear power plant, determine whether the main backup security and protection systems are working. well, and also assess the working conditions of the personnel and take urgent measures regarding safety at the zaporizhzhya npp station . of the full-scale invasion of megate at the beginning of

august, the spokesmen at the station were massively violating security protocols, and the institute for the study of war also reported that russian troops were storing military equipment on the territory of the station in order to protect it from ukrainian strikes , the press secretary of the russian president dmytro piskov said today russia is allegedly ready to guarantee the safety of the npp megaten mission, however, according to piskov, there is no mention of the creation of a demilitarized zone around the npp, what this all means let's talk further. because here the question arises as to who and what will guarantee the safety around the npp, well, at the same time energodar, if literally . my greetings to you. good day, please. for you, for the community of nuclear safety specialists, this is positive news that the megates mission is going to the

zaporizhzhia npp. do you have any questions ? personally, well, in any case, this is a very, very positive sign, because, in my opinion, it is the visits of the international community, the visits of international specialists, that make it possible to assess and find out what is actually happening at the station, what is happening with the nuclear materials, are they in a safe condition or are they working at all ? era of security and whether the personnel is able to respond in accordance with possible emergency situations to the handling of this nuclear-hazardous material, we see the photos. this is how i understand the mission of the maga-te in the faces of people who are going to go to nuclear power plant. please tell me the moment on which the new york times focuses on the fact that there will only be representatives of the so -called russia-friendly states. is he

telling you something? well, of course, there is a certain compromise in this first visit, but the main thing is on my point of view now it is important not to succumb to the provocations of the troops of the russian federation, who are constantly creating various info-drives in order to show that the zaporizhzhia npp is not capable of operating safely, that the ukrainian troops are provoking shelling, and so on precisely during the visit of international specialists, they will demonstrate that ukraine does not cause shelling, this is the first thing, this will significantly increase the weight of the international community in resolving this conflict, since it is clear that russian terrorists are using the au to blackmail our government and our president for to put him at

the negotiating table, however, with the presence of the international community it will be extremely difficult and the second most important thing is that we will find out the state of nuclear hazardous materials and the state of our personnel this is the main thing that we should get during this visit of experts. please tell me. and why is russia here, why do they agree to send a mega mission there ? russia is one of the flagships of the world's nuclear industry, and that's why they don't play by the rules of the international community, in which they play a significant role. it can lead to the deterioration of their status and , in general, to the transformation of rosatom into an organization that sponsors international terrorism , so here they show a certain loyalty. i think that this is exactly what we should insist on and constantly

to involve the international community of international specialists is special, rich and so on, how long should this mission last, because the specialists i spoke with before that told me that it makes no sense if the mission visits the nuclear plant there, makes some conclusions and leaves it, it should be there well, if it’s temporary, then it’s a few months or weeks. and in general, it should be permanent there, of course. i think that a month should be permanent, and there are always specialists there, uh, international specialists to monitor and control, but at the moment we have not succeeded. as i understand it, the arrival of international specialists is already a big step. if we look at history, no one

was going to give us guns and missiles. high mask now we use them to clean the calves and the enemy well. that is why we need to start, and there i think that everything will go according to our scenario and not according to the enemy's scenario, but megates in itself is not a political organization while they are there. they will not appear correctly, but they, uh, control the nuclear dangerous materials, we have been constantly cooperating with them all the time all the time, a certain responsibility lies with them in these matters, and that is why we do not say that they should solve our political issues, however, technical issues are under the control of an ordinary politician, but we emphasize so that they solve technical safety issues. and that is why we have every right to do so. we

demand that they be involved as widely as possible in issues of nuclear safety and integrity of nuclear materials at any facilities. which are in ukraine, not only from the nuclear power plant, but also from the chernobyl station, etc. the behavior of russian terrorists, i don't think that international power structures can protect them from

provocations . at this time, their presence is conditional saying russia to start using this plant to meet their own energy needs uh the thing is that russia owns uh has been holding this situation for a long time what and how they can do that is a big question however i would like to say that a lot of it depends on the armed forces of ukraine, which can uh, and they proved it when uh, they destroyed the substation that transports electricity to crimea, that's why i think all these issues can be settled by the armed forces, and technically, of course, russia can do anything because they i fully own both the site and all of

the networks that are nearby, just for the sake of context, i will add and also remind our viewers that he is the curator of the kremlin of the occupied ukrainian territories, serhiy kiriyenko, he has been in charge of the seedlings for more than 10 years, that is, it so happened that the person who is the curator of the kremlin in the occupied territories , it is well known that at least one should know how nuclear plants work, and i am here rather when i said that many are not political organizations, i meant that from a technical point of view they have they can perfectly prepare for the meeting of the megate mission to demonstrate that everything is fine here and even hide this military equipment somewhere. and if the mission there is not permanent but only temporary , how much will ukraine simply benefit from this step? well, you mean that russia can manipulate and betray it's wishful thinking. the fact is that it's not the first. that is, zaporizhzhya as is constantly

under supervision, and specialists have it. they know the infrastructure quite well and know where nuclear materials are located, what their quantity is and the mission to have in on this issue, it should be checked in accordance with the reports made by ukraine in the reports that i read that the nuclear materials are found. well, of course, a very important task of this mission is, after all, working with the personnel, assessing their ability to respond to emergency situations, and this is also one of the key issues of this mission is very important, i will only say so in general, summarizing that this is the first time in history when a nuclear plant was occupied and a megatheme mission is going to an occupied nuclear plant, and probably after that they will discover a lot of new things for themselves thank you very much for your comment, serhiy paskevych, deputy director of the institute of

nuclear power plant safety of the national academy of sciences of ukraine, was on radio freedom. well, i will also say that zaporizhia, the regional center of zaporizhia oblast , is located 55 km from the nuclear power plant in energodar, so literally today, the zaporizhia government distributed to residents of the city of iodine in tablets in connection with the fear of a nuclear accident in ukraine, given that we are entering a 50-kilometer zone from the energodar nuclear plant in the zone of possible damage to the radiation volume, we issue kaliyut pills to the population, mainly this population is under 40 years old, after 40 years, taking these pills is not recommended, this is a preventive measure, this is a preventive measure, after receiving this pill, you do not need to take it under any circumstances, take it only after official notification, only after official notification of the authorities authorities, i have come to get potassium tablets and children so that if there is a danger of radiation training, so that we can

take these medicines in a timely manner so that there are no resulting phenomena. thank you all for organizing what is possible come calmly, feel free to take and receive, thank you , the national information bureau of the minister of integration has started work on organizing correspondence between ukrainian prisoners of war and their relatives , at least this was stated by the minister of reintegration of the temporarily occupied territories , iryna vereshchuk, according to her, the first batch of letters arrived in ukraine the other day. the ministry is currently working on them by handing over prisoners of war to their relatives, vereshchuk said. the defenders of azov are in russian captivity. on may 20, the commander of the azov regiment, lieutenant colonel denys prokopenko, said that the highest military leadership of ukraine ordered to preserve the lives and health of the soldiers of the garrison and to stop

the defense of mariupol. what is known about the defenders of mariupol who are in captivity, what they write in their letters sent to relatives with us to contact sandra krotevych, sister of the chief of staff of the azov regiment bohdan krytevych, members of the association of families of defenders of azovstalia sandra, my congratulations good evening glory to ukraine glory to the heroes sandra tell me, please, did you receive a letter from your brother, but about the correspondence bereshchuk said no, i did not receive a letter from my brother, i did not receive a call and in general, these letters should have been in may , and not in three months, already in captivity even more than three months, and therefore a very big question , uh, just for the red cross, why didn’t we receive these letters back in may, how were we supposed to receive them now, yes ? yes, we will now talk about the red cross, but i still want to take you through and ask someone else did you receive them at all, or do you know what the

prisoners of war write? well, i personally don’t know yet that anyone has received them. if they did, i don’t think that relatives really want to talk about it, because there are most likely some personal messages, and it’s better. who got the best one? i think they will report it if it happens . maybe if they consider it necessary, the last time you and i spoke, just after the attack on the deer herd, and then the relatives of the defenders of mariupol demanded the resignation of the leadership of the red cross please tell me what has changed in the work of this organization during this time, well, today i want to remind you that today is exactly one month since the terrible terrorist attacks of the murder of the reindeer herders. and during this month, i personally did not see any changes in the red

cross in the work of the red cross. - and i will say for myself that the red cross never once came to me with good news, or at all with any news, did not call, did not write, and even did not respond to any letter that i personally wrote and sent, because of the work of the red cross. do not see as the other relatives don't see, a-a, hand over the letters , i'm sorry, it was too much, er, i'm saying back in may, when it was supposed to be, and hand over the letters after 100 days, how are they in captivity, well, i'm sorry, they must already be not just in captivity, they they already have and they should be at home to deliver letters by now i don’t see this please tell me what are the organizations of the structure of the state power in ukraine that are related to the prisoners and their exchange, unlike the red cross, they communicate with relatives ours, of course, communicate as much as it is

perhaps they tell us as much as possible what they can tell us, that is , there are no questions for our authorities to date, they are doing what they can a-a questions in international organizations that should influence the country of a terrorist murderer a-a that does not fulfill any the obligation of its own eh refers to prisoners of war terribly a-but we do not treat them like that militarily to their military who are eh as prisoners of war therefore to our eh so far, thank god, there are no questions, there is a big question for international organizations and the leaders of our countries right now we are showing the action that took place on sofiyivska square in kyiv after the attack on the deer farm. please tell me, after the attack on the deer farm, did the red cross visit this camp after

the attack on the deer farm? they told us on the phone that they are trying, that they are sending letters there that they are not allowed russia and as far as i know and as far as they informed us that they were not allowed there so that they are waiting there but they did not turn to any international relevant organizations or to the leaders of other countries for help, sorry it is possible to write letters like that. eternity, just write letters and wait, it is not clear what to wait for, that is why they did nothing to get there. and who could they turn to? well, you say they did not turn to other countries . from your point of view, there are countries that could put pressure on the kremlin a- a i think that yes of course a-a sorry er-er there is the united states, you can turn to the united states of the states, they did not do it, you can also turn to the countries that

er-er now er-er need our grains there, some other natural resources, i just not really let's say it has information on what exactly and in which country it is needed, but for example the same turkey that now reports every day, but how many of our odesa ports left judges with grain, you could also turn to and ask for help so that erdoğan talked with putin and found points eh. as they say, the points of contact at least meet with putin , meet erdogan, communicate, that is, the red hre could turn to erdogan. ask him during communication to help them reach putin eh let them go to prisoners of

war prisoners of war prisoners of war to other cities where they are kept for inspection so that they can fulfill their direct obligations that they gave to all other countries, they did not do it, they continue to tell what they don't let them in because they can't do something there and they make up everything else, your brother bohdan, you say that you didn't receive a letter from him, do you know where he is ? as i didn't hear, didn't take, didn't hear, didn't see anything knows about him, they have never found him, they did not even try to find him, although they should have done that and given me information about where he is, what he is, and what happened to him, at least some note, at least some i am not saying a whole letter or a call or something else give

me a hundred percent guarantee that he is alive i don't know if he is alive 99 days i don't know if he is alive my brother why is this organization why tell that you work according to the geneva conventions you work only in ukraine in relation to russian prisoners of war you check them you see in what is their condition, what do they eat, how do they sleep, that they are not given medical care, you do not do this to the ukrainian prisoners of war why is this organization and another probably difficult topic enough for you ? mariupol, where these rebar cages are being erected and it looks like they are preparing to hold a so-called show trial. please tell me if you know anything about this and in general what you expect from this process and who can prevent it if anyone. well, i will be honest.

i personally breathed my last breath on the 24th when it didn’t happen. of course , i already said this on social networks. first of all, secondly, i also understand that it was serious pressure from the un, from the international leaders, and from the leaders of other countries, and our president also expressed himself very harshly. regarding this a-a our foreign ministry said, that is, if you put together all these calls and all these words, this is exactly what helped us . on the 24th, you will not see this, but there is no

guarantee that this will not happen in the future. they did not say anything, they simply did not hold, but this does not prevent them from holding this in a day, two weeks , months, and so on, until we return our uh, prisoners of war, our defenders, we have no guarantees, did it come as a surprise to you when just recently in russia, azov was recognized as a terrorist organization and maybe you know what it changes in the process of exchange, and it is very difficult for me to say what it can change, because if this country that calls itself a country lived according to international law, it would be possible to somehow discuss with it and tell it what it could mean, and it could not mean basically nothing, because they recognized them as terrorists at the time when they were already prisoners of war, and i'm sorry,

they can't judge these terrorists as they want, in principle, because this prisoner of war is not subject to trial and judge them for what for what they defended the ukrainian land and ukrainians. they performed their duties as servicemen and citizens of ukraine. they did not fight on the territory of another country. they did not kill people, civilians or soldiers on the territory of other countries. they defended their land in their home, their family in i really hope that it's not, well, i can hope for anything, but everything is very clear there, how it will happen next. thank you, sandra, for joining the broadcast, i'll remind you, it's been more than 100 days already defenders of mariupol are in russian captivity and with their relatives, as you can see and hear, there is no connection sandra krutevich
