house near the ring road, that is, several kilometers away. after that, the windows shook and later columns of smoke rose above the city in some places. in general, russian cruise missiles flew in four districts of the ukrainian capital, in particular, in the direction of the kyiv national university, at an intersection nearby, a rocket destroyed cars, people died, other wounded and bloodied people were hospitalized, and for a few hundred meters away, in the park instead of a playground, there were bursts of shelling, the pedestrian bridge in kyiv was also attacked, but it stood at the same time, and another russian rocket hit the business center of a high- rise building near the central railway station, the shock wave shattered the windows and there was nothing left in the nearby houses, even from the stop of public transport of transport next to the word at this height, which has already been damaged by a russian missile, the visa department of the german consulate is located, this is briefly about the situation in the middle of the city

today they sound with breaks of half an hour, sometimes an hour, due to russian rocket strikes , six kyivans have already died today, as you sashko noted, but the number of victims is increasing every day, that is, there are already more than fifty of them at the moment, at the same time, data also appeared about the kyiv region, one person died there, another ten people were injured and damaged at least three dozen houses there and energy supply facilities were reported to the regional military administration, well , from now on, there will be power outages because of this, missile strikes on kyiv and its surroundings as reported in the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense of ukraine that the russian military-political leadership was really preparing at the beginning of october and now it is already known from where these missile strikes were carried out and, first of all, from which weapons they were tu-160 and for missile strikes, missile carriers of the caliber meta were also brought out near sevastopol

hit thermal power plants on the eve of winter and create panic among ukrainians. in general, according to the ministry of defense of ukraine, today russia launched more than 80 cruise missiles over ukraine and several dozen more drones, in particular, and the early martyrs. the data is updated in the same way as the data on those killed by russian missile strikes in ukraine, in general, as of now, they are 11 years old. this school of taras . thank you very much, we were contacted by the correspondent of radio svoboda taras levchenko from kyiv, we will continue to follow according to the situation, we will inform you e-e go to our website for this and also to our e-e accounts in social networks such as telegram , facebook and a-a viber in particular as a result of missile strikes by the russian federation today according to data as of 2 p.m., at least 11

people were killed, 64 people were injured, the general staff of the ukrainian armed forces reported that during the morning alone, russia fired 84 missiles into the territory of ukraine, 43 of which were shot down by air defense systems, president volodymyr zelenskyi in his address standing in the open air near the office of the president on bank street in kyiv said that moscow wants to provoke energy chaos and panic among ukrainians with its strikes we are dealing with terrorists dozens of missiles miranda martyrs they have two targets energy facilities throughout our state kyiv oblast khmelnytskyi lviv and dnipro vinnytsia frankiv oblast zaporizhzhia sumy oblast kharkiv oblast zhytomyr oblast kirovohrad oblast south of the country they wanted panic and chaos they want to destroy our power system they have no second target - these are people who specifically chose such a time and such goals to cause as much damage as possible but we ukrainians help each

other, we believe in ourselves, we are rebuilding everything destroyed, now there may be temporary power outages, but it will never be from our confidence , confidence in victory, why exactly such blows of the enemy wants us to be scared, so that people run, but we can only run forward and we demonstrate this on the battlefield, this will continue to be the case russian president vladimir putin said that the shelling of ukrainian cities this morning was a response to the explosion on the crimean bridge in the kerch strait, the explosion on the crimean crossing putin called i quote a terrorist attack aimed at destroying the civilian critical infrastructure of russia end of quote organization of sabotage he accused the ukrainian special services this morning at the suggestion of the ministry of defense and according to the plan of the general staff russia launched a massive strike with long-range air, sea and

land-based high-precision weapons on ukraine's energy, military and communications facilities. in the event of continued attempts to carry out terrorist attacks on our territory , russia's response will be harsh and their scale will correspond to the level of threats created by the russian federation. there shouldn't be any doubt about this. we are already in touch with the secretary of the national security and defense council of ukraine, oleksiy danilov. i congratulate you. well, first of all question we just heard the statement of the president of russia, vladimir putin. how can you comment on it, was today's shelling really a response to the explosion on the crimean bridge? as you think, she is absolutely not a recluse

. to the attack of our country, these things that happened today in kyiv began on february 24 in an active phase, they are simply covering themselves with a fig leaf, starting to tell something there, refer to something there, there is no link they have nothing to do with life, including the fact that they will not be able to defeat us on the battlefield , they decided to fight with the civilian population, to fight with our infrastructure, first of all, with the energy structure, in order to sow chaos on the territory of our country, so that our citizens would start e - to be afraid of running, this was the number one task that they have been asking for a long time, since october, november , december of last year, internal destabilization for the russians is the number one issue in a different way, they no words can overcome us, no way. that is why all putin's argon when he is already

sending more than 100 cruise missiles together with 136 martyrs to our territory. this just shows that this regime is being brought to its end. we have to endure it. you have to grit your teeth fight fight i will fight again and sharpen it here you said that 100 rockets including unmanned aerial vehicles were fired this is really a lot and also some volunteers say that it did not affect the ability of ukraine to hold on, but at the same time i also reported that roman sinitsyn is a volunteer and a member of the foundation, and that he writes about the fact that there are actually a lot of resources in russia . in russia, they can end or not. more likely, we clearly understand the availability of those resources that are

on the territory of the russian federation . uh, the special services on this matter of our intelligence, we understand what is happening in this tsar on the territory of the russian federation. yes, but it is already much less, many times less than it was at the beginning of the war, the active phase of the war on february 24 . they have old missiles that they can also use, but keep in mind that this is not a high-precision weapon that putin talked about, which they actually used today, we are talking about calibers, first of all, what concerns iskanders and other e- e at things which were still in soviet times, then there are certain issues with accuracy with other things. there are certain questions, but we understand until the last one, i can’t say, but we are definitely not wrong in a geometric progression if there is such a

situation due to the presence of er that missile er missiles that are on the territory of the russian federation today. here and together with belarus, who can help. and this is not a secret for anyone. we understand what is happening. i emphasize once again the task of the russian federation - this is chaos among the civilian population, which we cannot do. to allow to allow because it will be a very dangerous situation, i am proud, first of all, of our citizens, i am proud of our armed forces, i am proud of our citizens, who today, during such an attack on the subway, sang the song ot the white anthem of the country, the finale, other songs, it is simply impossible to serve our country to all people, sir danilo, i wanted to clarify the situation with the mppo system, because on the one hand, almost half of those missiles were shot down, many people note that this is a very good indicator

, but still many people pay attention to the fact if there were more anti-aircraft systems, if the western partners could provide more of them, or maybe more effective, then it would be possible to avoid such consequences as you think, how can you comment, you know that first when they start from october 30 last year, information appeared in the mass media of western ukraine about the fact that putin is ready for a military attack on our country , an active military attack, we appealed to everyone without exclusively partners specifically on the issue of air defense at the beginning of the war, the president every day he appealed to help close the sky, close the sky so that russian rockets do not kill the civilian population of our country, unfortunately, for today's question, i can't say that it was completely blocked in some things, uh, there are uh, deliveries in our country are coming

, but we would like it to be, and first of all, much faster and much more. the fact is that the country is big, so we also need to understand that all critical infrastructure facilities must be protected precisely among these air defenses. so i say it again i can't say that they don't give it to us, but the amount and speed, i would like everything to be a completely different situation, what kind of reaction do you expect from the west today, because the context is really important, this strike takes place a few days after the strike on the crimean bridge, many in the west well not from the politicians, but perhaps from the analysts, they talked about the fact that it is not necessary to vote for putin, so far we can see from the statements and we will talk about this further in our matter that the west continues to support ukraine, that this does not change anything today's strikes, but what do you think? i would like to see what kind of reaction from the west regarding today's shelling, i emphasize that this has nothing to do with which bridge, but i don't know

who you are referring to, people who are not inside our countries do not understand what war can be like in warm let's put it this way, in the conditions on the sofas there to talk about these or other things, to connect something there. that is, putin's task is quite simple, he emphasized the destruction of our country, the destruction of our top political leadership of ukraine, we are destroyed as a nation. he believes that this does not exist in our country. understand it for he has axioms and the rest are fictions why yes why not yes and why today and not yesterday it all does not correspond to reality see the prices of nitrogen oxides the country is a terrorist ot they started the war from february 24th it did not stop for a single day and what we see today in kyiv we see it with you in kharkiv, in zaporizhzhia, in other cities of our country, that's why it's necessary to refer to some invented things so that they decide something like that, there's no need to provoke them, look, we don't touch them, let them detach themselves from us, let them go to their own territory and let them everything is sorted out there

at home, we have a small request to detach from us, get out of our territory, leave , we will figure out how we should live, and now what concerns eh. how would we like the reaction of eh western countries to be, well, first of all, look the fact that russia is a terrorist country is not even a sponsor of terrorism somehow, it is simply a terrorist country that kills the civilian population, that is, that does such things that are simply unacceptable to the entire civilized world, if after this the discussions continue again, everyone should recognize it as a terrorist country or not, you know then it already goes a little beyond a certain limit of understanding then and what should happen then, what do you think the civilized world recognized that russia is ukraine a sponsor of terrorism or the country is a terrorist in general so these are already existing things, it is already happening live, i will remind you today when the correspondent if i'm not mistaken, the bbc has a report from kyiv, yes, it was already live, all

this was happening. what else do you need, dear friends, in order for you to recognize this matter first? well, of course, we would like the answer to be corresponds to the actions that are taking place on the territory of our country, the whole world sees the footage , even what you are showing today, when ours is going on, well, what else is needed in order to learn about the things that are, clarify why it is important. it only has such an important symbolic meaning are there any, well , mechanisms that are quite practical, how it will help to resist a--an attack by russia, this is not a symbolic gesture day regarding these martyrs that you and i already feel on ourselves for a certain period of time. yes, i can say that the iranians are self-sufficient, they could not collect these things, there are certain components of

certain countries. we are now figuring out how they ended up there and why the country that was under sanctions had the ability to buy those things that 100% belong to the military-industrial complex. and there are many, many other things . it is not because we are so vain that let 's say that russia is a sponsor of terrorism. once the younger one there are certain procedural issues after that i understood and president volodymyr zelenskyi said that they fired at two targets, actually the first ones were peaceful people and also infrastructure, namely energy facilities and that the purpose of these strikes is to create energy chaos and sow panic a you have already touched on this issue. i want to clarify whether it was really somehow possible to cut off the power supply, but there is already a message from the prime minister that such problems will occur in four oblasts and in kyiv, such as blackouts in general, now ukraine can cope with the consequences of 11 objects to date have been

hit by the attack of russian terrorists, but the system is working today, the system is working today, i'm sorry for the membership, it's not rubble, but in order to keep it, in order to it has become and so that it does not happen like this, god forbid, that the light does not go out from kyiv to the whole country, we mean that we need to save as much as possible now and there are times that we are appealing to with a great request, and they are now they are the ones that go when the load on the power system is particularly high, it is from five o'clock to half past six and somewhere until the 22nd 11:00 p.m., a big request to all citizens of our country to use electrical appliances and things that require energy only if absolutely necessary. because in this way you will help to maintain our energy system, which is still working today, and i apologize

, but there may be such cases in some er, in some territories, that for a certain time, for an hour and a half to two, the lights can be turned off precisely for this reason in order to preserve the whole system that is closed on the territory of our country, which provides a constant energy supply for everyone without exclusive population centers that are on the territory of our country, it is a very important thing that our president spoke today. i want to pay attention to where he spoke, we have never seen putin is not at the front, not in the army, not somewhere on the street, so that he would go out and have the courage to speak at all, i want to draw attention to the fact that the president and all of us, the entire leadership were and how they are today in kyiv, everyone was in their working cities , they were doing their work. that is the powerful support that our population has today. well, i think that by joint efforts with such a president and definitely defeated, it is only a matter of time. increasingly

, now they are talking about the threat of using nuclear weapons by russia how likely do you think it is at the moment , or has this probability increased since, for example, the beginning of the war, if putin has the desire to use tactical nuclear weapons, taking into account the behavior of certain countries this is a normal thing that can happen today, we don't see it happening. but we are not immune from anything. we don't know what people are doing. well, i don't know. it seems that they are living their last day . let's say that, they don't care about their country. can you imagine how the whole country will feel, which did not explode for the first time after the second world war, will apply these qualities, he said that the united states created a president and so it seems that he is allegedly preparing the ground for this, well, it was the second

world war, it was a completely different war at that time, germany attacked, as we all remember well from history. japan was an accomplice in germany at that time. thank god, there is no such thing now. let's say yes, yes, to the union . by no means, and what he then invents in order to hide something there, well, look, well, it’s absolutely some kind of madness in a different way, it’s impossible to call it a desire to seize a foreign country, look at our territory, and ours does not go to the territory of moscow petersburg, but there is rostovskaya oblast of moscow and moscow, i apologize once again, but she is going to the territory of our country and what are they doing here at all, i want to comment very briefly on the threat, perhaps from

belarus, because there are new info ghosts, so to speak , oleksandr lukashenko said that now they are deploying a joint military group from the trees, where the majority will be from the belarusian military. how do you assess this threat to belarus? we definitely have the information of all the studies of the belarusians . they do not want to fight with us, but they have no desire. today, lukashenko is being held hostage by putin in the russian federation, this is a well-known fact and it has been happening for a long time. we understand how we are preparing, we understand what is on the territory of belarus today, everything is under control, it cannot happen quickly, but we cannot exclude anything, taking into account the fact that once i emphasize that today they

put everything at stake and russia's losses in this war, and it will definitely be a loser. since 2003, they have independently chosen the path to the destruction of the russian federation, what are they currently doing in the last question, how can you describe the situation at the front, and in particular, due to the fact that the cold weather will soon begin, many of the military airmen they are talking about the fact that it is critically important for the armed forces of ukraine to have time to advance as long as possible before the onset of cold weather, i can say that our military, our armed forces, they are cold, hot, hot or any other climatic problems, they do not prevent us from defending our country, they did it, they do it and will do as it is, i am more than sure if there will be any additional inconveniences

, it will be so, taking into account the fact that the weather will be completely different in the autumn and winter period, but i emphasize once again that this will not hinder our armed forces carry out their tasks to liberate our territories. and to protect our territories. thank you very much. the secretary of the national security and defense council, oleksiy danilov, was in touch with us. well , the journalists of radio svoboda also collected videos from surveillance cameras and video recorders. just a video of kyivans by accident . filmed and posted on the internet this morning, on them you can see the consequences of the russian strikes on the ukrainian capital today because i just saw the rocket and i heard it

how long did it take to hit the bridge klitschko did not hit you stone a thief, here is a spare part from a rocket, here there is damage to the bridge, and there is a big funnel below called he met me yesterday, it was my birthday, i thought today, even this plus well, these are the stories that happen well, they hit here, they hit here, shevchenko is wounded, the civilians are already helping and soon помощь перекрываем сейчас движение traffic jam rosava, but whole ashes, where the winds of lovers' dreams are swaying, how can i not love you,

i see the day, beauty, everything, save me, all sources, bowed down, what is possible for glorious ukraine! - 9 well, that's how the ukrainians of kiev who came down to

the subway to escape from the explosions that took place outside, they sang songs, ukraine's international partners reacted to the massive shelling by the russian army that took place this morning, the minister of foreign affairs of great britain, james cleverley, called russia's missile attack on the civilian territories of ukraine unacceptable in the opinion of the head of british diplomacy i quote, this is a demonstration of putin's weakness, not strength. end of quote, the president of lithuania is driving us to a settlement, he emphasized that i quote to you, russian cruelty has no limits end of quote and the head of the ministry of foreign affairs of latvia, edgar serhinkevichas, believes that russia, quote , has demonstrated its cowardice and the true nature of

a terrorist state. on shelling and whether the massive attack on ukraine affected high-ranking officials from brussels good day sashko well, this is indeed the case when some high-ranking officials from brussels also had to hide from shelling , the european commissioner for justice just went from here to kyiv and on a visit when the city began to shudder from rocket attacks and accordingly he had to cancel the meeting this morning, the commissioner went down to shelter in the basement of the hotel from where he wrote that he is safe and waiting commented on the development of the situation in one of the shelters. by the way , together with hundreds of kyivans, the german ambassador to ukraine was waiting for her. she herself wrote about this on twitter. when they go to bed, they don't understand whether they will have a family or a home in the morning, think about the face today , the president of estonia or the parliament suggested by the way
