let's not leave the people of kyiv and in general many ukrainians who will be cold and wet with such synoptic hopelessness already from wednesday it's finally time for grandma's summer to arrive. it won't be very long, about a week from wednesday to wednesday, but it's very similar to, according to all previous forecasts, that from wednesday it is expected, well, the forecasters cannot say that the weather will improve, but the weather will be favorable, that is, from wednesday, the midsummer summer will come to ukraine once again. thanks vasyl natal, thank you very much for telling me about the weather. tesla companies fell after the scandalous mask regarding the capitulation of ukraine, and that's right. and now you are from ukraine today. watch and be with the press. good evening. we are from ukraine on the air with ukraine. russian forces

are trying to gain a foothold on new frontiers, the russians launched another missile attack on zaporizhzhia and two villages, a new missile attack on dnipropetrovsk region left a thousand families without electricity, so that they would die sooner cockroach this is my dream e kremlevskiy ukrainian culture week was held during which the ukrainian classical composer valentyn sylvestrov celebrated his 85th birthday .

on the front line, where the shots are heard, we are told to run for shelter, this is the position of the ukrainian military in the city of bakhmut. we cannot disclose their location, the russians are

very close to them, 400 meters, the armed forces unit maintains a firing position, but it is difficult to do it here in donetsk, oleksandr, the commander, he knows the price war and combat losses, my brother died. only i i don't know where and when exactly it happened, because he was drafted by another military commander and from another region , so i don't know where. and yes, my brother died a few more while the battle is going on right next to the building, the military uses one of the key types of weapons of this war, a drone operator novel

very recently, he became the father of his little son kirill, saw him only once, the man says he is fighting so that the russians do not commit new atrocities. not at night, a hard fight to hold this position and to prevent the russians from advancing to the bakhmut, president putin claims that this is now part of russia, the territory that he officially annexed last friday, and the soldiers here call such statements nonsense, the city center is full of scars from russian attacks and echoes of the war imagine that this is your house torn to pieces, it seems that there is no one left here until suddenly lyudmila

, a pensioner, looks out of the window, she cannot walk, a defenseless and frightened woman says that most of her neighbors they moved out and the house is leaking, a man was killed yesterday in this yard but despite the danger, lyudmila can't leave here, she has no money for a cemetery that is on the outskirts of the city, people are saying goodbye to someone close to them, there are many fresh graves of those who were killed in recent months, and suddenly shelling starts nearby projectiles are exploding very close by , danger also awaits the living here... at the same time, since

sunday, there have also been reports of the liberation of settlements in the kherson region, this is also confirmed by russian military bloggers the so-called warlords, we are talking about them. by the way, what we will talk about during the program confirm that the ukrainian military has completely taken control of arkhangelsk and myrolyubivka in the north of the kherson region, volodymyr zelenskyy confirmed this late on sunday evening in a traditional address, later the operational command of the southern armed forces of ukraine reported a partial success in the battles for kherson region, however, specific liberated settlements were not named there, at the same time there was real violence in social networks and in the russian public report on the breakthrough of ukrainian troops, russian military correspondents say that the advance of the armed forces of ukraine in the south may be much more than official sources report, and they are already beginning to openly

criticize the leadership in moscow, and we will try to look at the situation together with the military expert oleksand kovalenko, and he joins me to efizephyr from kyiv i congratulate you oleksandr, the panic in the russian public has been seen and there are reasons to worry about the russian military what is happening in the southern direction to worry about what is happening precisely in the northern and northeastern direction from kherson, and there is a very interesting situation, which, well, you can call it the cascading, cascading destruction of the defenses of the russian occupation wars, and the armed forces of ukraine have been preparing exactly that for several weeks let's put it this way, the foundation of the conditions of the conditions in order to carry out effective offensive contests it is precisely in this direction that the

destruction of problems and the point of the control point with productions were struck even at the positions ah, russian official units, and since last week, we can observe how the counter-offensive began more intensively and actively on the right bank part of the kherson region, that is, i understand that you can draw an analogy with what happened under the raisin when the ukrainian armed forces broke through the -th front line, and beyond it there was nothing, well, in fact, this is how it can be compared with, with a small exception, in the region of raisin , kharkiv region. and on the side of the ukrainian armed forces, there was an area. wooded area, and precisely because of this, it was possible to maneuver more or less, but imperceptibly

, and to carry out quick er-e storm actions er-e units of the ss and occupy enemy positions, knock them out of their positions, and in the case of the kherson region, and the kherson region, these are slightly different conditions and this is a large amount of open space. that is, it is the fields of the fields, so you have to be very careful to carry out assault offensive actions there. the enemy for dozens of meters. therefore, it is only possible to carry out such actions only when the conditions are created, one of such conditions can be, for example, full fire control a-a in the radius works even by russian artillery, artillery and more , namely, and this square a in general how strong are the positions of the russian forces there now, because

yes, for weeks we have been talking about the fact that the russian forces are cut off from supplies, that they are being exhausted, and we also hear about the fact that there is quite a large group of russian troops what options do they have in general? yes. there are approximately 20-25 battalions of tactical and tactical groups and units of various e-e groupings of the combined army concentrated there. and that’s why it’s still quite a serious potential, but this potential is depleted, and many units are already for a long time, they have needed, for example, withdrawal from the combat zone to restore combat capability due to losses, and they really have a catastrophic and critical lack of resources, they lack the supply of ammunition, logistics supply they lack even fuel and lubricant materials, and therefore this has an

effect on how effectively they can hold the defense for a very short time. do the russian forces now have a chance to establish their supplies there on the right bank of the kherson region. they will not be able to establish an effective system of providing advanced units from the left to the right bank, and i also want to ask about what is happening under bakhmut, because we already mentioned in the program today that this is actually the only section of the front where russian forces are advancing or what is known about the situation there now it is so tight eh they are trying to continue to carry out assault actions in the direction of bahundu but these assault actions are exactly eh let's say exactly assault actions but not offensive and they cannot guarantee them any success in the offensive a-ah they today, they can

exert fire influence and force the armed forces of ukraine to be constantly on the defensive and block them, and attempts from the north or south to make a breakthrough, but only at the expense of storm actions. they will not be able to to do this fully, it was not effectively understood . thank you, oleksandr kovalenko, a military expert, together we understood what is happening on the fronts, what could be further options for the development of events on the night of october 3, russian troops launched a missile attack on zaporizhzhia, the infrastructure of the city was destroyed, according to the head of the regional military administration, the works of the rehabilitation center were destroyed where children with special needs studied in relation to the operational situation at the front, in this direction the russians are focusing on obtaining occupied borders since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, according to calculations based on official reports, the city suffered more than 20 rocket attacks that caused casualties among

the population and destruction of various objects of the city, almost half of them 10 rocket attacks occurred in the last two weeks, 140 people became their victims, including 32 dead and lives in many villages of the zaporizhzhia region - this is actually life on the front line every day under the threat of new shelling, which means that the correspondents visited komyshuvka 15 km from in russia, there are no people here, but there is damage in the village of komyshuvakha, only the women remained, there are not many of them , men and children have left life 15 km from the enemy is not easy, as it should be free ukraine is independent but we did not go to anyone, but we never touched and did not want anything we did, and we want to, the way we used to live, so it was. before the

village began to be relentlessly shelled, ms. love was only recently able to return to her native home, or rather, what remained of her home, the charred ruins from her past life, russia announced about the annexation of new territories and now threatens to use a new lethal weapon, you can imagine that the situation will worsen, so these possibilities are not excluded. i generally believe that putin is pursuing such a policy that he needs to destroy this genocide of our people, because as you see, we are not a military heaven russia is constantly trying to prove that its presence here is justified, but in the village of komyshuvaha, nothing reminds of justice. you quickly realize here what these

people have gone through and what they are afraid of. no one accepts them. annexations, but what can this escalation and moscow's setback mean in this and is to create fear of the future in the relative safety of the city of zaporizhzhia, people welcome those who have just completed their dangerous journey from the territories occupied by russia, the invaders are mobilizing ukrainian men there to fight for anton, this can mean fighting against his father came twice they came twice to mobilize me the first time i was not at home when they came the second time they stayed in the house for a while my pregnant wife was also there they could have taken me away if it wasn't for her. or maybe they would have taken me away. ukraine will liberate its lands,

he says, by the forces of its military, not by treaties signed in moscow. the ukrainian armed forces are making progress and are able to effectively oppose the russian army. said the secretary general of nato and genstoneberg, according to him, the best way to resist russia's illegal annexation is to continue to support ukraine at the same time the application here is the application for joining nato and signed by zelensky became an unpleasant surprise for the alliance, at least a number of western media, in particular political publications, reported that the western capitals were not aware of such an intention of kyiv, and this step put the alliance in an awkward position, because there is currently no consensus on the admission of ukraine into nato, although a number of countries already declare they support continue to declare actually support kiev's stop to the alliance one of such

countries - this is estonia fitting estonia kalles spoke to the bbc and said that her country supports the initiative of ukraine and some countries do not should be afraid of putin's threats, let's listen ... not only us here, but everyone in the western world, because he scares with nuclear weapons, cyber attacks, various hybrid attacks, he uses all these tools, for example, he uses energy as a weapon against europe, so the only one who resorts to escalation all the time is putin and the only correct answer to putin will be to show unity and strength, not to intimidate us with the threats he makes .

in kharkiv oblast and in the lyman, and also as a result of the mobilization, american analysts claim that russians hear much more criticism of the generals, according to the analysts' feelings, the defeat in lyman gave rise to even more sub-society in the russian infra-space and criticism than the exit from northern ukraine in the spring and even the defeat in kharkiv oblast since after the recent events in russia, the institute for the study of war announced mobilization, it also notes that the military leadership began to openly and loudly criticize the so-called patriotic military bloggers who were even allowed to appear on the tv show by some guests of the kremlin television, which appeared on the air on october 1, criticized the decision of the russian president to annex four ukrainian regions, some viewers are even cautiously beginning to talk about signs of a split . joins bbc correspondent oleg antonenko, who closely follows

the events in russia, to the broadcast. congratulations oleg. well, you see the signs of a split, i will give one more example, maybe even more eloquent than a quarrel military personnel in social networks, kadyrov, who is actually using the appropriate terminology now, does not drive ours, what is it at all? hi, these raids, what do you call them, have several explanations in russia after a series of painful defeats at the front, which you said not only kadyrov, there is a need to find the culprit, of course and putin cannot be to blame for this. some observers believe that kadyrov and prigozhin, when they criticize the army of generals and the general staff, try first to distance themselves from the army and say that prigozhin's fighters are wagnerites or kadyrov's soldiers are more effective than ordinary sand soldiers but they don't respond to defeats and you are the army here it seems that the personnel numbers

in the army are going like this, in particular , major general roman berkov was appointed commander of the western military district yesterday and before that, on the third day of mobilization, which began on 21- on the 10th, the deputy minister of defense bulgakov, who was responsible for already providing and this seems to be only the beginning of the search for those responsible for the failures , was dismissed pr only for a few years now , russian mass media are actively working on social networks, mainly his statements about the intention to send his minor children to the contrary, we generally know very little about the effectiveness of the kadyrov troops at the front , we know nothing about the scale of their participation in the war , and many have great doubts that we will see the 16-year-old akhmatan of the fifteen-year-old eli and the 14-year-old adam kadyrov somewhere, for example

, in kherson or near bakhmut, especially since we did not see their father there, well, i heard a lot about that the kaderites were practically not seen in the pedigree, this is such a tick-tock army, uh, in general, i also wanted to talk about the phenomenon of military personnel, how much they have become official, how much they are the child of the propaganda system, and they have already separated from it, it can be almost a separate system, so that it is already starting to attack the first well, let's see we can call the influence of warlords and simply the so-called zetas of patriotic channels great. but we do not have sociological tools to check how much this is. some of them have a million or several hundred thousand readers in social networks, some of them receive direct state funding - these are kotskuksin sweets - these are employees of the propandian media of russia, they work at the

front, they are also the sofas of the troops, their bright representative is the head of rush there, and more precisely, now it is called arti margarita simonyan, who calls putin the boss, is constantly present in historical tv shows about you know ukraine and many more such couch telegram channels with the letter z somewhere in their name, all these people broadcast several narratives, but they do not criticize, and do not criticize putin, this is generally a taboo, but in principle after the failures of the first months of the war, they actively called for the announcement of e-e mobilization, and it is believed that the decision to announce it was made by putin, not least because of the war crisis, on the other hand, this mobilization campaign, at least for now, is a big problem for putin, it is going through numerous violations at the front, the situation does not change so quickly, it cannot change, of course, ten, maybe hundreds of thousands of

russians have now left the country, as you remember, there were protests and the same margarita simonyan who said on russian television that in hot wars, russia, ukraine will win in two days, she said something like this. and why should ukraine be defeated in the first place? well, this is ukraine. that 's right. now, after the announcement of the mobilization, she has turned into a human rights defender on her social networks, she talks about cases of illegal mobilization is asking the superiors to sort it out, it means something like this, comrade stalin, a terrible mistake happened, so the generals are to blame, the west, what are you with russia, but the kremlin is not to blame for this . course and he was told where the help is where armat despite the fact that the western press has repeatedly written about the fact that putin takes a direct part in decision-making on the fields bbc correspondent oleg

antonenko thank you very much at the same time the state duma of russia ratified the treaties on the entry of territories occupied by the russian army after adopting the constitutional laws of ukraine as part of russia, not a single vote against, not a single vote was received. these laws must now also be considered by the federation. after that, they will be finally approved by putin at therefore, the russian parliament passed these decisions at a time when none of the ukrainian regions are fully occupied by russia, but what does this change ? angela stand, advisor to the center for russian and east european studies of the american center of the brookings institution, explains when the war began, putin could call it an offensive operation in order to have full control over donbas now, of course, after the annexation , he can say that this is a defensive war to protect new russian territories from any

ukrainian attack, which is usually fueled weapons of the usa and nato. therefore, he really raised the stakes and also made any negotiations impossible because the ukrainians cannot deal with such effective referendums and the annexation of ukrainian territories. therefore, there is no room for dialogue because although the russians made it clear that they are ready to sit down for negotiations with ukraine if it will surrender and accept russia's conditions, no ukrainian leader who wants to stay in power will do that because it is a loss of a large territory, the west must continue to support ukraine, and he is currently providing for it weapons, the necessary means to repel the russians and return history, and sanctions are part of this, but i think another challenge is to involve the rest of the world, let's say the countries that were received when russia was condemned for what it did,

you need to convince them to get on your side and pay attention to it now ukraine wants to join nato, the last time this happened was in 2008, when the usa wanted to provide ukraine with an action plan for membership, and germany and france were against it, because they thought that it would provoke russia, so nothing since then in my opinion, it did not happen today in nato, there probably would not be a consensus, but the process can begin, although obviously a fast way is unlikely. given what is happening now, the sha government does not see a real threat of using nuclear weapons. putin is obviously trying to intimidate the west, and also try to force shaty to convince other nato countries to sit down at the negotiating table, but it cannot be completely ruled out that he may consider the possibility of using tactical nuclear weapons, this war still makes no sense, russia will not win this war because

what is happening is actually a sign of an almost eternal situation on the part of putin, who thus started a senseless war, so it is impossible to say with certainty that he will never try to use weapons of mass destruction, but it seems that this will not happen in the near future, and we will postpone the conversation about tactical nuclear weapons at least for this evening on a good worldwide the famous ukrainian composer valentyn sylvestrov celebrated 85 years in the british oxford. under the soviet regime, he was expelled from the union of composers for his views, but already in independent ukraine, he lived in the glory of a classic on the day of the beginning of the great war, who tried it tomorrow in kyiv , then he came to berlin, but the other day he visited great britain and his works were performed. my colleague tetyana kharchenko returned from there for the week of ukrainian culture. yevgeny utkin is heading

through the streets of oxford to the gallery here. more than 50 ukrainian artists from all over the world map one of absolutely cool dude absolutely but in ukraine ethnic russian utkin commander of a platoon of a volunteer territorial community with all fighters of the foreign legion that in the photo he was side by side when they were based near irpen and defended the city kutkin says this exhibition is only part of the festival at which the british public can also watch ukrainian cinema and listen to classical ukrainian music let's start with the most important thing with which we start all events - this is out of gratitude to the british to the british government, johnson, as we called him, i mean johnson, for the support that was and is still being given

to ukraine. to the british public after the mass invasion of russia into ukraine, he says that for him playing an instrument lost its meaning for a while, he returned to music by chance, we went to the library in the market and there was a piano, i sometimes played for volunteers well, for myself actually, well, there we are were also engaged in some kind of useful, as it seemed to us , activity shared. some of his musician friends volunteered at the front . what what what we can at the festival of ukrainian culture in oxford, the british discover the kyiv choir, the virtuoso performance of the violinist bohdan pivnenko and the music of the ukrainian classicist valentina sylvestrov his childhood fell on the post-war period of the formation of german
