and on sunday it will be colder in kyiv, but dry weather will also prevail if the humidity is not increased by fog. this is the nearest synoptic ukrainian perspective. thank you very much didenko for the information about the weather. finally, i want to say that at 9:30 p.m. the tailor is september , the weather project of the espresso tv channel. i will just say goodbye to you until sunday and i wish you all the best. take care of yourself and i will say that in just a few seconds you will receive a news release from my colleagues from the ukrainian editorial office of bbc news. good evening. we are of ukraine, this is bbc new from ukraine, live from london, olga

palamaryuk works in the studio. ambassador of ukraine vadym prystaiko left, asks china to press russia to end the war in ukraine, ukrainian energy is experiencing a major crisis due to russia's energy terror and destruction of energy facilities, four of the half a million ukrainians. this was announced by president volodymyr zelenskyi. subsequently, the president's office clarified that it was about four and a half million consumers, not apartments.

the most difficult situation remains in the capital and in ten oblasts. to terror against the energy industry shows the weakness of the enemy , zelensky said, and the most powerful and tense situation remains in kyiv according to the mayor of the capital vitaliy klitschko , 450,000 homes remain without electricity, this is one and a half times more than in previous days, how does the capital live in the mode of maximum electricity economy. this is what the impression of the multimillion-dollar city made on bisi correspondent catherine yarukhanov in kyiv is becoming more and more dangerous for pedestrians, we are in the center of the city as you can see here, the lighting on the streets is almost not transparent, mostly provided by cars. therefore, people should be more careful in the evening. there have been

reports of cases when people fall into it's dark and injured, it's interesting to be on the street at this time and to see people trying to do what they would do if the lights were on. couples are walking here, people are sitting on benches talking, some are walking their dogs, whole families are walking with children . but most likely everything will get worse, it will get colder and it will make life difficult for people in ukraine . russian president vladimir putin said that the civilian population of kherson should be relocated from the city. he said this in a conversation with volunteers. putin met with them on red square on the day of the national day unity, it seemed that at the end of october, the russian occupation authorities announced the end of the evacuation; on october 22, the russian-appointed

military civil administration of kherson demanded that the residents immediately leave the city and move to the left bank of the dnieper; that it was dangerous to stay in kherson, according to them, because of possible shelling, and on october 28 they announced that the evacuation ended from the city where, according to their estimates , 100,000 people live. 70,000 residents of kherson went to the right bank of the dnieper and were interviewed by the bbc told that the city has been emptied and almost nothing works in it, and defense minister oleksiy reznikov does not rule out that russian troops may retreat from kherson to the left bank of the dnieper . of the psychological special operation of the so-called ipso, meanwhile, the offensive of the ukrainian armed forces is slowing down why

bbc correspondent jeremy bone saw with his own eyes in the trenches somewhere one and a half kilometers from the russian positions around in kherson, the soldiers of the ukrainian 63rd brigade learned to be careful, they dig trenches, the winter promises to be long, and then he came in. i like my dugout, my husband says it will be warm here, on this ground, many months of optimistic conversations of ukrainian leaders about the offensive in the kherson region, sighing at the harsh reality on the battlefield because moving forward offensive is a threat to people's lives and i repeat again we must calculate everything before you piles of used tank

shells will appear just like that as proof that it was difficult on the mykolaiv front, the soldiers say they do not have such combat power to match the russian army in terms of numbers or heavy guns, the people are not trained, but they just go straight ahead with shouts of hooray, they are going forward and we have no ammunition as many as they have people. now you see why the kherson offensive takes so much time here, flat open terrain, the ukrainian military is constantly under russian fire and this is what they face every day they have been talking about this direction since the summer, because it is very difficult to move forward, the ruins of the mykolaiv

regional state administration, destroyed at the beginning of the war, are a reminder of what russia is capable of. there are few people who believe that russia will simply admit defeat. kherson's artillery systems are reactive, which will be up to 300 km. we need anti - aircraft defenses, respectively. capable of such a thing, it cannot be defeated without additional force, which ukraine needs so much and which it still does not have in mykolaiv, access to drinking water is the only way because russia blew up the water supply in the queue for water,

someone tells the russians not to bring us to our knees, and such disobedience does not mean absence of fear or suffering is in yes, every person is standing, they are crying in their hearts, people are worried that they will have to do this in the winter and in the frost this week, russian rockets hit residential buildings, one of the residents died, people who had at least something lost everything in this house has little left to save two sons of love in the army greetings of peace at hand very difficult for people is the unpredictability of an attack that happens in the middle of the night when they think they are at home relative safety what to do her neighbor is a firefighter who is used to saving others saved himself to continue and fight because we

watch out for our country, let's say so. no one else will defend it except us, that is, i work in such a field, that is, i am a stalker with such a person all the time, and how would it come to my house. let's say so, the pity of the war envelopes mykolaiv the price of a local victory, long-term pressure on the russians if it comes to the battle of kherson, the price and regret will increase sharply in ukraine, in the near future, russians with criminal records can be mobilized . served prison terms for murder, theft, robbery, and drug trafficking; currently, according to putin, 41,000 conscripts are already fighting in the war zone in ukraine , and the total number of conscripts

amounted to 318,000, why the number turned out to be more than planned, i will remind you that three hundred thousand putin-hours are volunteers, and we will talk more about this with a military expert who will be in touch with us oleksandr kovalenko and oleksandr thank you for joining the broadcast, but first of all, i want to talk about kherson the day before a russian passport, a flag, and an evacuation suddenly disappeared from the building of the regional administration. today, a 24-hour curfew was announced in the city, although later it was in operational command urge not to rejoice prematurely. how do you assess this chain of events - is this a preparation for a retreat or an attempt to provoke successful actions? in fact , it is the first and second. i see exactly his signs of what is happening now, events that are preparing the russian occupiers to retreat - the first is,

for example, that they not only remove their flags for the administrative building, but also do something more important, namely evacuate their doctors. and you evacuate medical equipment, even loot ukrainian medical equipment and take it away almost all uh, drugs uh, that is, the question arises as to who will treat the wounded russian occupiers in hospitals. that is the point, and they are not preparing to treat a large number of wounded, and we see that they are also trying to evacuate the artillery, it is still present on the right bank, but they they are evacuating without the full artillery, the russians cannot either advance or conduct a defense, and in fact they are now carrying out these actions that can accelerate their retreat if it takes place from the other side they are provoking the armed forces of ukraine to

recklessly go into a counteroffensive and there they find specialized losses, but the armed forces of ukraine are not doing this yet, they expect the most comfortable conditions for the counteroffensive, from a military point of view, are there any chances keep kherson from the russians. if so, under what conditions, what do you see as the most likely scenario in the southern direction, i am more than sure that they have no chance of getting kherson, they are now in a very disadvantageous position there. and this the situation is what i call a stalemate for them , it is on the right bank part of the kherson region and has been developing almost since july, and every month it has only worsened, now it is the most difficult situation for them to get this territory, and therefore, no matter how much they send their

mobilized and no matter how they try to restore the logistical connection between the left and right banks, they will not be able to get this territory. it is not separate. i also want to mention zaporozhye. during the last weeks, we also heard in particular, quite panicky warnings from pro-russian so-called warlords that the most logical thing for the armed forces of ukraine would be to strike in the direction of melitopol and simply divide the entire russian group in two, but you see there now the chances for events that can radically change the situation at the front if we are talking about the zaporizhzhia bridgehead, indeed, this bridgehead will be the main one for the liberation of the south, and the right-bank part of kherson oblast is a completely different scenario. donetsk region, as well as directly the operation to

liberate the temporarily occupied crimea peninsula , all this will take place precisely because of the counteroffensive on the zaporozhye bridgehead, but it is too early to say about it, i would even say so, until the issue with the right-bank part of the kherson region is resolved, and until the issue of the occupation of luhansk region will be resolved, and talking about zaporizhzhia is a contour attack scenario, but it is still too early. well, in general, with the onset of cold weather, what can we expect? if possible briefly and the ukrainian army is preparing for winter events much better than the russian one, it looks like this process has begun and i will say this much, many people say that in winter it is during the pause that all active combat operations become the most active, but in winter, in fact, combat operations are also conducted and these battles are won the side that

best prepares for winter will win. we hope that the armed forces of ukraine will be that side. thank you for the analysis of the situation at the front. we spoke with military expert oleksandr kovalenko and great britain handed over winter equipment to ukraine, we are talking about 195,000 units of winter equipment, it went to ukraine together with ukrainian military personnel who came for training in the united kingdom, 40 units of equipment are provided for each military personnel, in total it is planned that 10,000 ukrainian military personnel will undergo training this fall, another 19,000 are planned to teach next year and about the british vector , we will talk with the ambassador of ukraine in the united kingdom of great britain and northern ireland, vadym, bye-bye, mr. ambassador. greetings, britain was and remains the vanguard of support for

ukraine. i just touched on the topic of military support. should we expect that with the arrival of a new prime minister, the support will be just as significant, both financial and military? i am sure that the help will remain. time were with us, but the new prime minister was also the finance minister. as you know, he was the one who tried to find these funds. we need these billions of aid that were provided in the form of economic support, financial support, as well as this weaponry that was transferred to britain was bought abroad, transferred to ukraine, transported, all this is due to the fact that he decided on dogs, in particular, being a place, finn found these funds, and the financial crisis, which in particular, britain is also experiencing, will not affect this assistance, we must understand that financial the crisis will affect everyone, i hope that it will affect russia much more strongly because these economies are stronger , the economy of great britain itself, even this country is

twice as large as the russian economy, the whole i i hope that all countries united in one front did not help us, they will be able to survive this winter, how and when we survive this winter, the next one will be much easier to prepare, everyone will understand that russia will continue to monopolize this gas market , options will be found to answer this question, i think the following it is probably much simpler, believe me , russia also accused great britain of involvement in the attack on russian warships in crimea, as well as in the explosions that damaged the nord stream pipelines in september the russian ministry of foreign affairs even called to send on the carpet, so to speak, and what is the official position of kyiv, well, first of all, russia should know that great britain really has a powerful armed forces, one of the most powerful in the world, and they really have the ability to inflict a crushing defeat on russia, and precisely that's why they are worried. i'm not talking about the fact that russia planned to fight with all of nato, which includes 30

countries and among them are such powerful ones as the united states of france, germany and britain itself. that is, this is a normal reaction, no one else. as putin said, no one else it didn't start, they are already scared, until now the ukrainian army can handle itself, but we are getting the necessary weapons, which we need now for victory, the fact that they call temporary ambassadors and ambassadors of the country who support us, of course, a diplomatic reaction - this is the most they can do the british reaction is very calm and they still can't provoke us in this way, maybe they won't frighten britain is ready for the fact that russia is an enemy, we looked at the documents in great britain, this was done a special integrated review of foreign policy two years ago, the directorate was already called an enemy of great britain, and this was before the full-scale entry into the war with ukraine, and now i would like to change the angle a little and talk about migrants, and this problem is quite acute

now for ukrainians great britain sincerely and openly opened its doors in this way and introduced whole programs of support and assistance. are there currently accurate data on how many ukrainian citizens of the new wave are in britain, and perhaps these people are as of today, approximately 134,000 ukrainian citizens have already entered the consulate's register, these numbers change for obvious reasons, some go home, some move to another country, some, thank god, are born. that is, this number is changing, and it is easier for us to count than our colleagues in europe, a ukrainian diplomat. that, as you know, the visa regime allows you to simply control who entered after receiving visas and the first six-month period for which contracts were signed for the residence of people with their hosts has passed apartments are given houses where ukrainians have been accepted, this creates a certain certain problem because it is necessary to rewrite for the next term to renegotiate and we understand that it is not always easy to live with

strangers with an unfamiliar culture with an incomprehensible language, frightened people and people who left their homes, husbands and family members are broken all this is very difficult, and therefore it is about a psychological, private, difficult process, but thanks to the help that is provided, britain doubled the help even to those hosts who were accepted by us in in principle, i think that everything will be fine, and can we talk about any extension periods , so it was six months to study monthly and you know, thanks, thank you, it would be great to address all our people who came to appreciate that help, appreciate - this is an open heart with which the british accepted for themselves at home, schools are open for ukrainian officials and medical institutions are open . that is, everyone is connected to the health care system, according to our data, approximately 42% of ukrainians have already found work here, that is, our people are not waiting until states will give the british and you are ready to earn honestly and in principle they show a very nice example and in these reviews of the british that i

hear are quite positive and how often ukrainians face problems this is more the exception than the rule is it still easy to adapt to a new environment emigration at that time by lord harrington, letters to 25,000 families in envelopes were received by all the people, they thanked those who accepted, asked if they could help with anything, since then, people have really applied. thank god, not everyone has applied for 25 thousand hours, but there is a problem from simple problems, where should i send my child to school, because there was no place in the schools, obviously no one expected such a majority, well, the population will grow so much to ordinary questions. it works 24 hours 7 days to give and the closest people can sign up is around april, that is, the queue of the judge.

these people were forced to leave ukraine in the first days of the war, often abandoning everything, and did not plan to have a passport and were not going to go anywhere on vacation because of i don’t know for business. they simply didn’t have any, and britain accepted them with those documents, sometimes without documents at all, as they are now, it is obvious that we need to fix some situation, people have to leave, people have to pay for work, get bank accounts there, get some help, for this we need documents, we are trying to fix it now, it is not just like that actually, you have already calculated how this algorithm will work. perhaps you have even increased the staff. we have increased the staff. we have volunteers. my wife is also a volunteer. we are all those who can. who can help ? it all moves protected to ukraine because we maintain the same high level of security and passport documents as before the war. i would also like to know about the attitudes of the british or the british themselves and is britain generally not tired of the war? i don’t have

that feeling. i see this conversation. i watch your reports all the time and understand that in different countries they behave differently, but thank god in great britain they understand that russia is an enemy that kills our citizens and destroys our economy. they came because of this when london was mercilessly bombed by the germans every day for many, many months in a row , the british also walked at night and were recommended to wear bright things and eat carrots by the way so that they could see each other better since those times medical science i went a little further, it is not necessary to eat carrots, but to wear light clothes so that the cars do not forget these people, this is really good advice, but actually what the british adopted from the ukrainians. maybe it is because they still live together, maybe some traditions and customs are already ukrainian. well, they laugh about that. how you and i feed and cook for him in a different way, much more vividly, sometimes more than they are usually used to doing. and in general, british cuisine does not differ in some incredible variety, it is such a household thing, there are some things

which do not correspond to each other. well, for example, the british do not understand that tea can be drunk without milk . well, actually, the war ends, we hope that this will happen in the near future, should we expect tourism, yes, british tourism to ukraine and an increase in the actual flow of tourists, i am sure because many of these families who come are happy to say that we gladly accept these people. they really want to understand what kind of culture, what kind of people these are, and you can see that they have all already received invitations from their people who they accepted to visit and show the ukraine that they want to bring here. i hope for the flourishing of our relations between britain and ukraine for many, many reasons. thank you for the conversation with the mercy of ukraine in the united kingdom of great britain, northern ireland, we are a simpleton. thank you, and now about another sensitive topic for great britain , bbc journalists found out that albanian

drug gangs use migrant camps in the north of france to recruit people who will agree to work for them, drug dealers offer to pay the way to great britain how it happens, bbc correspondent lucy williams will tell you every such boat and every migrant is under the watchful eye of smugglers albanian intermediaries in britain are the point of contact for kurdish criminal groups a man who bought a place on a kursk boat this summer tells a woman to him in a camp for emigrants i was approached by people who tried to recruit him for drug trafficking in britain, they offered to pay me a lot for the road, to give me a job, but i am not interested, they approached me four times five times the journey of albanian migrants usually starts from this place. small towns such as lak-nas can be recognized by the deserted streets behind tightly closed

shutters. empty cafes of crossing because moving to the uk is cheaper in the suburbs of tirana are empty. residents of this area say that they have already left. 70% of people and many of those who remain think of joining them albanian social media ads promise an easy trip for around £3,000 an intermediary will help arrange transport from brussels, paris or dunkirk, we contacted one of them under the guise of albanian clients and within half an hour we had two offers to cross the border with different payment options and advice on how to get asylum in great britain, this scheme is one of the reasons why the british police claim that it is difficult to eliminate the network, as in the business of drugs or weapons, there is a hierarchical structure with a baron at the top, in organized

migration crime there is no such thing, we see how close ties develop the networks of these migration flows french officials say albanians act as intermediaries for iraqi kurdish gangs who still control most of the sea crossings from france maslinda's son crossed dunkirk last month without the help of smugglers and did not even pay his pocket money guarantor in english according to a woman, her son was facilitated by a relative in england, who acted as a guarantor, his younger brother, who is only 14 years old, is also planning his trip, every successful crossing is an invisible thread that mentally connects an albanian with his native home, the chancellor germany's olaf schulz, during talks with president xi jinping in beijing, called on china to use its influence on russia to stop the war in ukraine in germany and in europe, this visit

is called controversial. to be nervous in many european capitals, material from china under german chancellor olaf scholze and german business leaders china begins with a red carpet, the visit is extremely short, all because of strict the cavid rules of petin the german delegation is not an exception they cannot stay overnight and have to leave the country on the same day but china is happy to meet chancellor scholz on its land is it going we hope that chancellor scholz's first visit to china will be successful china and germany are strategic partners meeting scholz with the chinese leader took place in the so-called great people's hall of the chinese parliament building, president xi jinping noted that both countries should work together for world peace, the first partnership between countries was established 50 years ago when the

then chancellor willy brand established diplomatic channels calmly in the same year, the american leader richard nixon met with the head of the mao , thus becoming the first us president to visit mainland china, this meeting became a turning point between china and the west, and berlin is the main beneficiary china has been germany's largest trading partner for the past six years china has saved the german economy several times when we faced financial crises everyone had problems, but daimler sold the most s-class mercedes than ever before in its history in lavshol seems to hope that his visit will deepen those economic ties but critics say that by relying too much on china, he is repeating the same mistakes that berlin previously made by relying on russia, the united states, which pursues a policy of separation from china, calls on berlin to be

careful, pragmatic cooperation between china and germany is a matter of two sovereign countries, and the united states should not question it china and its almost one and a half billion citizens are a huge economic power and according to scholz's calculations, the chinese leader is worth keeping close, even if it provokes criticism from germany's traditional allies, and that's all for today. take care and see you on monday at etnam balsam zirka is the first step in the treatment of a cold, proven by a doctor
