their relatives are shocking against the background of the terrible atrocities they commit in ukraine, the terrible crimes that were captured in photos by professional ukrainian photographers now show in this world yes yes the exhibition of evidence of russian war crimes has opened in the symbolic city of europe, the very center of brussels, a famous historical building of the old railway station the so-called europa station, which is part of the complex of buildings of the european parliament, its president robert matsol in the hall at the ceremonial opening next to the prime minister of ukraine denys shmyhal stony shmygana of course prime minister mr. shmyhal i want to assure you that the european parliament will not turn a blind eye to your people, these crimes will not be forgotten in the war and we will do everything in our power

to ensure that everyone guilty is brought to justice, create a special tribunal and to achieve judicial retribution for that of ukraine, which the prime minister and head of the office of the president of ukraine, andriy yarmak, who joined the opening of the online exhibition , spoke about. in 2014, it was extremely soft, which led to this new bloody war, we need to create a new framework for international security for the countryside , on the wall of the exhibition there is a giant map on which there are currently 26,000 recorded locations of russian crimes, but we understand that this is far from all. and how many murders of civilians still

continue to be committed, all this can be stopped on the battlefield, therefore it is critically important that the west does not lose momentum in its support for ukraine, we must not let the europeans get tired of of war, says businessman viktor pinchuk, did the font become a co-organizer of the exhibition first at the international forum in davos, now here next to the meps why is it carefully because it is necessary for europeans to see what is happening to he someone there is politics in this day there are more severe sanctions someone from watering someone this potomknet faster to deliver weapons eh then we are all worried that this is winter ahead they have inflation crazy their prices for electricity and gas are rising and everyone is afraid and of course our enemy hopes that he will destroy the unity of our western partners and therefore it is very important to show these crimes because they cause such crazy emotions and then

the europeans have a clear video of what they are fighting against whom they are not fighting it makes them stronger it is difficult for the first guests of the high european ranks not to look away from the terrible footage, however, for ukrainians, these are the realities of today's life and the punishment of criminals is a guarantee that it will never happen again. there is an international special tribunal, the exhibition will be open for 10 days to show visitors and european officials the evidence of those victims to give a real picture of the pain and devastation caused by russia in order to achieve justice and tell the truth about the incredible strength of the ukrainian people, who are currently protecting the world from the golden age of destruction

brought by the russian federation, our soldiers skillfully deprive the enemy of their eyes in the sky, just in the past day they shot down at least three of these orlan 10 drones circled and conducted reconnaissance, one was shot down over kherson oblast, and two more over kharkiv oblast. this is reported by the air force command of ukraine, i note that the cost of just one such aircraft is approximately $100,000 and this morning in the south and east of the country, the ukrainian military destroyed five out of six cruise missiles khas-101 launched from aircraft from the enemy region of the caspian sea, in addition, a unit of the anti-aircraft missile forces of the air force destroyed a k-52 alligator attack helicopter of the russian invaders, meanwhile, to ukraine have already brought three bairaktars for which he collected money for the serhiy

prytula fund, ukrainian symbols on them, our coat of arms , blue-yellow flags and embroidery, these barrektars have already managed to christen them folk and after collecting all of the necessary sums, the turkish company baikar decided to give them to ukraine for free. in this way, having demonstrated support for our people in the war against the russian aggressor, they endured hunger and cold, survived under round-the-clock shelling , their relatives died in front of them, many on foot under bullets, left the city, passed through filtration camps, they mariupol, part of the townspeople were taken to russia and they returned to the motherland in ukraine , there are centers in 11 cities in mariupol, the displaced people have organized themselves and support each other they treat, look for work and even entertain and are already

preparing for the reconstruction of their city after the liberation. i am from kuban . i am a russian woman. she was saved, they ate soups of spoiled meat, portions per day, a small paper cup, they fled the city on foot, just under fire. i don't know if it's a firearm or not, it's definitely from me . they stand with weapons, i reach him. and he speaks to me. he smiles. just

under the windows of high-rise buildings in the flower beds and in the squares, almost 43,000 hryvnias were forcibly taken by the occupiers to russia or the occupied territories, more than 300,000 were evacuated to ukraine, no one knows the exact figures and human losses, it is so stressful all the time you can't go back to normal life and even time doesn't heal. i spent three months in hell and elena could leave with her family only in the middle of may . her parents stayed there, that's why the woman stopped in the dnipro. the first time i went out, i saw the graves. i cried . i returned home. and the child we didn’t want to show it, and then a little later we started going out with her. well, we could have covered everything, but at that moment, even corpses were lying on the streets to support the people of mariupol in the dnipro. they were the first in ukraine to open a center in mariupol, food, hygiene kits and other things. 10,000 people across ukraine have already turned to us for emergency assistance, there are 11 such centers and they have helped 40,000 mariupol

residents . networks that can be traced, the flow of mariupol residents and in the center is moving for a mariupol citizen in frankivsk, more than 6,000 people turned to mariupol, as in every center, mariupol residents work here, those who went through this hell of war who got out of the occupation from mariupol, i walked myself with my son and a cat and with one wheelchair because the car was already broken, and there were such stories mykola of my company, which repaired special equipment and fifty employees , still can not find a job in frankivsk by profession i came here to volunteer and stayed to work, and the most important task is because many people come and get a job, the main issue is because, well, who pays for an apartment here, the residents of

mariupol can at least feel at home emotionally for children, they organize master classes and even kindergarten for adults, the most important psychotherapy, well, we didn’t have help either, we hope everything will be fine, mariupol will be fine, the center accepts a therapist and a lawyer olga helps mariupol residents to prepare and submit documents to the european court of human rights, this will help herself to a person to declare that his offense will receive compensation and this will help to show in general the scale of the problem that currently exists in ukraine due to the military aggression of the russian federation until residents of mariupol are scattered throughout ukraine and the world. they are already preparing projects for the reconstruction of the city, the steel heart on the banks of the azov river, they are ready to restore it with their own hands, for the fastest victory

. from the death of gleb, one of the marines who bravely defended mariupoli from the first days until he was seriously wounded and then there were 17 days of captivity, how was he lucky to reach of his native country and how he got back on his feet, khrystyna velychanska will tell the parade for the thirtieth anniversary of independence ukrainian military equipment passes by the maidan on trukhaniv island a landing force of marines is landed among the newly minted marines gleb when the boat approaches the shore the equipment is actually this fear to understand that they are deep just don't jump into the unknown you think it was also the most difficult. and this is gleb. a year later, from a smiling closer, he will not immediately understand that at the age of 25, the boy has already been on the receiving end of death he is one of those who desperately held the defense of mariupol and

life events are so arranged that in the bye hierarchy of values ​​and ukraine occupies the highest value when the war began at 14 he was still a schoolboy but he dreamed of defending the state exactly a year before a full-scale offensive it was on february 24 that he swore allegiance to the ukrainian people and i stopped at the first separate battalion of the marines, this is not just the name of the battalion - it is actually the first battalion that was created in independent ukraine that is, back in 1993. that is, it was like this, well, if the foundation of the marine corps in general, when the great war began, his unit was located near mariupol on the evening of february 23, bohdana ordered us to turn off our mobile phones because it is possible that the russian aviation will be flying somewhere our location is possible yes, there is shelling or bombing due to the lack of a network, they will find out in just a day that they started bombing not only them, but also the whole country, and in a few days the marines

will be entrenched at the ilyich metallurgical plant, this is it is also very important to say that mariupoli was not only for steel, there were two huge factories . i don't have to talk, it lasted for almost two months. they knew that they were completely surrounded, but they were pulling the enemy troops back so that they had time to prepare reinforcements for them at the training grounds. i slept from the third floor to the first floor. i couldn't move because i collapsed, uh, i couldn't see anything because of the uh, well, if the high temperature of some kind of scumbag. i don't know what to call it correctly, i call it a kind of boiling of the eyes, and that is, the eyelids in i was boiled - they boiled me to the lower part , he was found under rubble and transferred to a field

hospital, but the injuries were too serious. hleb heard from a combat medic that i had a parliament, someone, i had various bruises on the rib cage, i had a broken lower jaw, that is, yes well enough she was well turned to the other side eh broken broken nose in order to save the lives of the severely wounded they had to be handed over to the russians as prisoners and for 17 days the occupiers never once injected even a pain reliever they just watched the ukrainian military channels in agony option as a command проводе отдельная его zelenushka kapets is my case, that is, i was treated by tapping on the shoulder, well, with your broken pelvis, we won't do anything, it's just that the body sometimes fell out and that is, malt was my medicine there, i don't know, prayer was mine with medication, hleb's condition worsened every day, he had already resigned himself to the fact that he was taken lying down by plane somewhere to the beggars' corners, but they were brought for an exchange, yes, but i saw a blue-yellow flag and then they took me

into something like the body of a gazelle, they put several people there and this driver approached the landlords are like that, he knocked, he says everything guys, breathe out at home in ukraine and all four of us shed tears yugo was rescued from hospitals in zaporizhzhia, then in poltava, where he comes from, currently an infantryman is undergoing rehabilitation in kyiv, now inside as such titanium rods, bolts, bells will be with er for the rest of my life, the same goes for my jaws, a titanium plate , while gleb can only see in one eye, he was supposed to stand on his feet only in the fall, but he took his first steps in july and didn't stop there. yesterday i ran 2 yes, to some extent it is discomfort and pain, but such things shape the character of the infantryman , he believes that he will be able to return to service in the armed forces, despite experiencing the hell in mariupol with his wife and the loss of close friends, he still wants to be as useful as possible to the state of ukraine.

to me, this is an indicator of the fact that nothing is impossible for us . and i really believe in it, and this is what they live by. in the hands of all of them are the heroes of kyiv region, they became the heroes of the film reconstruction of the march occupation of kyiv region, the region of heroes . awarded the main characters, facts , talked exclusively with the heroes and the producer of the project, a virulent and audacious attack, historical battles and incredible self-sacrifice of local people, all this about the defense of kyiv region, the region survived, and thanks to people like oleksandr akimov from irpen, on february 25, he took his

relatives to the west of the country, he could breathe out and forget about everything but he returned to save the old and bedridden, we drove people from the other side of the romanov bridge and we persuaded people a lot, a person does not understand anything who are you and why did you come for with her, you explained that your relatives sent you for you, your children took more than 60 people out and carried all this in their arms under fire, just ran into the forest, it was also the most terrible moment because, well, it was, well, it just seemed to me that now i i will show up somewhere and they will shoot at me. the legendary kyiv bridge combined these two , then together they took out thousands of people. it seemed like the antipodes in life . anatoliy, a deeply religious father of five children, even when he personally asked me for a church passport, tolya said, don't go. in

you have five of them. you have five children. we won't , we won't be able to take care of your children like you and i say andrii mykolayovych there are 500 people sitting in basements and a hot-tempered, desperate 21-year-old atheist oleksandr, they see people for the first time in their lives she says yes, we have a car, let's take his husband's keys to him and to an unknown man. well, men remember our car, how densely the mines were laid, how the shelling did not stop . i fly behind the collar i understand if i even well lean in yes then grandfather will just fall from this all the bridges you were just like an animal that is being hunted you go and wait for them to kill you and you just try to live until the evening live until the evening and do something useful very

soon about these people the whole world will learn about the fifteen-year-old fire adjuster with a drone and young veterinarians who had to operate on children for the first time in my life. stories of ordinary ukrainians, the moment your mind says that you need to run away from here, it's all not worth it, but you believe in your own strength and so on , i fundamentally want to continue this work , it was also risky that in this film the main roles were played by real people without any film experience, this is a movie reconstruction of the heroic deeds of ordinary ukrainians , this movie is their confession. that's why they play themselves . i took this risk. i was afraid that we would get something bad, but wow. it was wonderful because they didn't

play, they were worried again in these moments. vla absolutely supported the idea, gave all possible access, helped with the locations. the film was shot in less than three months, this is a record time, and finally the premiere of the official teaser. those who passed on information, those who took people out of the occupation. they definitely should not be forgotten, we should talk about them. people and we should talk about their deeds. i think that this is a part of our cultural code. these people should be real heroes. although they are ordinary residents of the kyiv region, heroes will be released in ukrainian cinemas already this fall, and after the planned world premiere about the free people of a free country oksana mykhailova maksym kostenko ictv facts the only news is all for now we hold the

arrows and victory to us despite everything yesterday the russian presidential press secretary the presidential press secretary actually veiled but very clearly started blackmailing europe with gas supplies from russia they say that the problems with gas supply will continue as long as the anti-russian sanctions last, to what extent is europe generally ready for the next heating season in the context of gas and can it succumb to this blackmail, now we will talk with lana zerkal, adviser to the minister of energy of ukraine, plan, congratulations, congratulations. so russia is actually openly blackmailing europe. remove the sanctions. there will be no gas, gas, gas , and so on . some unity of europeans in

this matter, because according to my non-professional observations, there are weak links in the european chain, such as hungary, which are ready to give in and continue to sit on this russian needle, regardless of everything that is happening now in europe, not only in europe in ukraine is directly affected by hungary, which continues to increase its dependence on russia, although the entire european union has already provided itself with gas for the winter period, and they are even running ahead of their schedule for filling up gas storages, as of today they have already accumulated more than 82%, on average for the european union, and where do they get the gas in this case? they get it all over the world, and in fact, yesterday

macron clearly stated at the press conference that if last year the supply with russia was 50%, then this year from all the gas that comes in the european union, which they accumulate in their underground storages, this is only 9%, that is, the drop is very large, very significant, and the replacement has taken place almost completely . from the russian gas needle and this will put an end to at least the business of gazprom in this direction, as an expert you agree with the statement that this winter is decisive for europe and its dependence on regarding russia's gas industry, i would say that this winter is decisive not only in the gas sphere, it is also decisive in matters of oil and petroleum products, because for the

russians this is the last battle and this battle concerns all energy products. and they play the same way they play oil products, hoping that everyone will be very scared of the approach of winter and even scare people by filming all kinds of videos in which they show how europeans will freeze in the winter period. well, for example against oil products, the european union is already introducing anti-russian sanctions, will partially limit them and is now even thinking about limiting the price of oil, but when it came to gas, it was as if they were afraid precisely because of dependence on russian gas, and here we find ourselves in a situation where you say 82% of gas storages european ones were filled then. why were they so afraid to introduce any sanctions against russian gas? they were afraid to introduce sanctions considering

the fact that they had to fill these gas storages. at the moment, they are full of dependence on more than that. there is no and they are already talking about the need to introduce the so-called pricescape, i.e. limiting the price of gas as well, because high gas prices have a very negative effect on electricity prices on the european market, and next week the european union is preparing to adopt its full policy on how they will spend this winter period, what will they do in order to save e and save not only gas but electricity and how will they limit excess profits in connection with high prices to but ukraine has now become one of the important exporters of electricity to the european union and can we take advantage of this chance because it is really an opportunity to help europe and make money from

it while we are starting to enter the european electricity market, we still have certain restrictions related to with our incomplete status as members of the nsu, we have only started commercial flows and only joined the european electricity network this year, but we hope that by the end of this year we will be able to significantly increase our export in addition , poland and the baltic countries, slovakia, and romania are also very interested in this export, because they are all currently suffering from high prices and a shortage of electricity. well, if ukraine fully enters this market, we will be able to beat these european prices with our electricity, we will be able to provide for the shortage that the european union is currently experiencing in connection with the undersupply of gas

to the european market, and we will be able to help the european union in matters of electric energy and make money from it, well, but we have fears that due to the russian occupation of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, we may not be able to cope with our obligations to export electricity, how serious are these fears? well , we do not have obligations to export electricity at the moment, we trade one day ahead. that is, we can regulate this market the offer that we can provide, no one expects that we will be obliged to supply some crazy volumes and therefore our citizens may somehow feel some restrictions no really a priority for us ukrainian citizens remain, and what we can additionally supply and

sell for it at very high prices will be exported. well, let's go back to gas. crazy figures that are now published in the news almost every day are breaking records there. €2,800 per thousand cubic meters seems to have fallen a little bit now. well, it’s a little bit within the range of several hundred euros. what does this really mean? is anyone buying now at such prices? are these market mechanisms when you agree that if it does not fall, it will be such a price in a year, that is, something out of the ordinary of the higher economy. is it really necessary to go and buy now for 22,500,000 cubes? in fact, we are talking about financial instruments. that is, it is what is traded on the markets . crazy compared to what it was like last

year, when we also thought that these were high prices, but given the fact that the market has decreased and the possibility of obtaining gas has decreased both on the european market and on the world market in general due to the fact that russia this gas is in short supply and generally closes its production, that's why this year they really didn't increase much, and now all the governments in the countries of the european union are trying to somehow protect their consumers so that households are less vulnerable to this organization and this energy war that it is conducting russia well, when it comes to prices, the ukrainian government also protected ukrainian consumers by fixing gas prices, but will we have enough gas in our storage for the heating season?

i hope that it will be enough, because you and i are really in a situation of uncertainty in connection with military actions, which can affect a lot of things, but at the moment the government is doing everything to protect citizens from gas shortages and to get through this winter period, thank you ms. lano for that who found time to answer our questions lana zerkal, adviser to the minister of energy of ukraine, was in touch with us. we remember that winter is coming , it will be difficult, obviously not only for ukrainians, and accordingly we will have to save energy resources are something for which we are not always ready, but for which we will have to prepare in advance and get used to it. i hope we will succeed in all this. united news together we are strong armed forces need drones make your contribution scan qr
