suffered what is the russian people like to this day and a large part of the belarusian people still fear and even today there is probably no such force i mean you know reality i am not talking about something so otherworldly or about some sarmatian voivodes huge nuclear bombs are real although nuclear bombs they are also sent there and they must have strength, and when they are not afraid of them, it is a different story, that's why we , the people, defeated our victim and got rid of fear , we will achieve victory. take care. we will meet tomorrow at 7:00 p.m., we will have espresso. now for your attention, a news release from my colleagues from the ukrainian editorial office of bbc news. good evening. we are from ukraine. greetings from bbc news ukraine . live from london. olga palamaryuk is working in the studio and today we are talking about explosions. in kherson, the

russians are shelling the city, there are wounded and dead shelling of the zaporizhzhia npp, maga te recorded explosions near the reactors, the accident on the northern stream, the bbc correspondent managed to get exclusive access to the underwater explosion site kherson, which was liberated a little more than a week ago by the ukrainian military, is again under shelling, as reported by the first deputy head of the regional council , yulia sobolevsky, in kherson recorded strikes on the infrastructure and wounded civilians, later the deputy head of the president's office kyrylo tymoshenko reported that as a result of the shelling by the russian

military in kherson, one person died and three more were injured as well as a result of the shelling of the village of antonivka , a woman was injured and taken to the hospital, as a resident of kherson told bbc new from ukraine artillery shelling in and around the city practically does not stop on the left bank of the dnieper opposite kherson, there are russian positions, and after the russians left kherson, traces of their atrocities continue to be found in the city, so the law enforcement officers found new anchorages , at least four premises are known where during the occupation they received and tortured people according to the investigation - these are the buildings of the detention centers of the police department, this is evidenced by, among other things, found identification cards, shift schedules, pasted signs the investigator's office criminal investigation in russian in kotovnya, it is said on the website of the prosecutor's office that parts of the wooden baton were seized in kyiv and the apparatus

used by the occupiers to torture civilians with the current of incandescent lamps and bullets. from the walls , the identities of all the victims are now being established. russia officially denies the commission of war crimes in ukraine as it lives kherson now we will ask the journalist serhii nikitenko, he is with us on a direct call from kherson. greetings sofia, last time we spoke with you when kherson was still under occupation it is also interesting how the place has changed, well, actually, at the time of the liberation, the city almost did not change. we were there, uh, two days after the liberation, our group came in. we saw almost the same city. of course, it was empty, dead, cold, without light, without heating, but literally, in the last two days, it has changed beyond recognition. the city is shelled 24 hours a day almost from the left bank, and the artillery is shelled with

barrel and mortars and rockets. no, that is, russians are shelling civilian infrastructure, civilian residents are killing ukrainians. last weekend, the first train from kyiv arrived in kherson. at the same time, the local authorities are urging people not to rush back due to shelling from the left bank, where russian troops have regrouped . how dangerous is the city according to your observations? well, honestly speaking of today, we spoke with residents of various districts, it is clear that the territory of the suburbs of antonyvka kindiyki is extremely dangerous, they are now being demolished

lands uh-uh actually, it’s mm-m distance from the enemy to the construction sites well, a little more well, maybe a kilometer between maybe one and a half in other areas of the city more or less uh-uh safer yes well it’s conditional security still flies to all areas of the city there were flights today mines on the territory there, let's say in the region of the former hbc, that is, the plant, it is from the dnipro , about one and a half kilometers, that is, the mines are mined from the other side of the dnipro to the center of one of the most populated microregions of the city. what the russians are planning next. well, it is difficult to predict let's say move to kherson now, yes, if people didn't want to. well, it's not recommended. i don't recommend it. the authorities are urging everyone, on the contrary, to

evacuate as much as possible to where and how it is. another question, yes, and a question for the authorities in the first place, but hm well, i would personally urge you not to go now what is the humanitarian situation in the city of kherson, has the electricity supply been restored, are the medical facilities working , e-e, the medical facilities are working at the limits of their capabilities, in principle, they accept patients, provide assistance , including there, and that is why the ambulance works cars have arrived in the city that were handed over by the ministry of health instead of those stolen by the russians, but at the same time there is no electricity in the city, there is still no water, heating in the city, the only sign of civilization is gas, in fact, more opportunities to live in the city no, that's why the

humanitarian situation is very difficult, yes, people are left without food supplies because the refrigerators are not working, the only way to survive now is that there are some dry supplies. yes, and plus it's humanitarian aid, and it's distributed very chaotically. and people have to do it almost 24 hours a day, that is, the situation is extremely difficult, at least for humanitarian organizations, the well center kitchen is working to the limit of their capabilities, they are doing everything possible to provide food to everyone who needs it, that is, there is no hunger in the city, and most likely with a large there will be no joy, but there are problems with the supply in the city, shops have opened, gas stations have opened, in principle, life is being adjusted as much as possible serhiy this was kherson journalist serhiy

nikitenko and actually about the humanitarian cargo further to kherson meanwhile convoys with humanitarian cargo arrive grocery sets warm things and hygiene products details from the bbc correspondent james waterhouse a week after the deoccupation kherson is slowly starting to come back to life for 8 long months the city was cut off from the world and this is the turn for i am a humanitarian and the walls are older. do people rely on help without electricity? how will we get by? the children are warm in the houses. we live by the river there very aptly, and today we he is on the square and the child is on top, you understand this is freedom, this is freedom, this is a chance for people to

reconnect with their relatives. before the war, 380,000 people lived in kherson. due to the occupation, more than half of the residents left the city. those who stayed at home are united by one goal to survive. how are you? everything is fine , let's give it the last week , here you are, a barbecue. beautiful

, i conjure up the optimism of the people of kherson, even the fact that the new positions of the russians are some 600 meters away , with the liberation of kherson, the russian occupation continues only in this territory in the east on the banks of the dnieper, but this border is still not clear. some of the russian soldiers are still here and it is not very clear how winter will affect the counteroffensive of the ukrainian military, but in spite of everything, kherson will continue to recover after the russian occupation. the analysts of the american institute for the study of war speak of the strengthening of russian operations in the donetsk region. are connected with the withdrawal of russian forces from the kherson region, which we will talk

about with us, representative of the national institute of strategic studies oleksiy yezhak mr. oleksiy, i welcome you on the air, the left bank of the dnieper in the kherson region, that is where the russians are shelling kherson. we recently talked about this. there are casualties. how far are the russian troops entrenched there? i think the fortifications on the very bank of the dnieper are not high, that is , they are not of such a level that they can withstand a serious offensive, but the problem is that the dnipro is an obstacle and we cannot. ukrainian troops cannot and cannot easily go to storm, so i think we should expect that there will be increased fire pressure and those positions of the russians from where they shoot more carefully possible development is necessary because there are enough means, the left bank is controlled in terms of fire far enough to

chernobaivka and even to dzhankoy in the crimea, but this applies to large e-e targets, and here are such operations of the artillery when they bring the artillery close to the civilian city and simply shoot they are shooting in the square, well, this is a problem at the level, well, the same problem as existed with iranian drones when there were many and it was not clear what to do, in the end, i think the problem will be solved, but it can to be long just as in kharkiv, when the shelling continued for a very long time on russian territory and it was difficult to do anything, but in the end, the question here is intelligence and the means to suppress the enemy's firing positions, where are the largest forces of the russians now? on which part of the front will they now deploy emphasis after the retreat from kherson, as far as it is possible to understand

what data i have, er, they are really strengthening, strengthening the defense of crimea and have significantly strengthened er, the eastern direction of the donetsk region, they have it there, there is a feeling of strengthening, and i think there will be another attempt once well, so to speak, to fulfill what putin said is going according to plan and to make at least a small advance in the donetsk region to demonstrate that russia did not withdraw troops from kherson just like that. well, they are strengthening these two directions and will hold the rest as long as they can hold well, i want to touch on one more topic. information appeared that germany offered poland the patriot system to protect the sky in warsaw.

they say they can be placed on the border with ukraine. tell me what kind of system this is, or can they really if necessary, cover the western part of ukraine as well, and actually, is it politically possible? i think , well, technically speaking, yes, it can cover at least part of ukraine. it can cover at least the yavoriv training ground . the potential of protection against ballistic missiles, not only cruise missiles, but as far as political aspects are concerned, the shooting down of missiles flying towards poland on the territory of ukraine. i do not think that this can be a procedural problem.

there will be some obstacles on the part of ukraine, and this is a question between ukraine and poland, where such means can operate, another matter is that it is unlikely that german patriots will be placed in poland, they will act precisely in the interests of ukraine, but they will really be able to cover part of the territory. thank you for the conversation. this was a representative national institute of strategic studies, expert on security issues oleksiyazhak, thank you, there are explosions again at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. energoatom reported that the day before, at least 12 flights to the npp site as a result of damage to the system and equipment, mega-te experts reported that none of the damaged systems was critical for nuclear safety so far, the director general of the nuclear power plant again appealed to the parties to agree on a nuclear safety zone around the nuclear power plant in the

russian ministry of defense and rosatom previously announced the shelling of the station by the armed forces of ukraine ukrainian energoatom in its statement noted that the station was shelled by russian troops and this is how the situation at the zaporizhia npp became to the energy industry in general, the bbc correspondent jessica parker told the world audience that this is not the first time that the situation at europe's largest nuclear power plant causes great concern due to shelling around it, which is very close to the front line. experts say that the reactors themselves are well protected, but they are especially worried about the lack of electricity, since the loss of power can affect the cooling system and it is this that can now create a seriously dangerous situation, have called for the creation of a protective zone around the nuclear power plant but this obviously did not happen, now inspectors are working on site, but the plant is under the control of russia, which is

an additional complication, both sides and russia and ukraine blame each other not only for the fact that the power supply is disconnected and the plant has to rely on generators, but also for the fact that the npp is still employees who are at risk of personal danger, luckily there were no casualties over the weekend, but the people who are responsible for the safety of the station are still working there and risking their lives due to continuous shelling, if you take a broader view picture, the energy infrastructure in this ukraine suffers from shelling, people here are very worried about regular power outages, sometimes planned and sometimes winter is not coming, it is already very cold here, and it will get even colder in kyiv the first snow has already fallen and this is another of the problems faced in ukraine here are trying to repair damaged electrical facilities,

spare parts are needed for this, and since we are talking about a large infrastructure of the soviet era, we have to rely on other former soviet countries that they can send them and it can take months, but here they try to repair everything possible and as quickly as possible, not always everything is necessary for this and this is another reason for concern in these cold months and in the event of a threat to the power system, we will talk together with an expert with us on a researcher at the harvard kennedy school, an expert on nuclear policy, maryana boujeren, ms. maryano, i congratulate you on the attacks on the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, you demand damage, what do you think is another nuclear blackmail by the kremlin, you know, it is very difficult to establish the actual motivations and what is happening and who is

shelling, since these shellings are taking place in the zone of active military events, this is an object that is under the control of the russian federation, and even the fact that representatives of megatech are now there at zaz i know four representatives from this international agency. their work consists of monitoring the safety systems to the extent that the operation of this nuclear power plant meets the requirements and is safe as far as it is concerned. radiation radiation state, they cannot establish exactly who is shelling whom and, accordingly , the occupation authorities do not allow them access to some well, to which of these places where the shelling took place. well, president zelenskyy

said that the energy system of ukraine was destroyed by 40%, eh? a complete blockade threatens ukraine well, if russia continues this policy and strategy of shelling and destruction of critical infrastructure of ukraine well, it is very difficult to see any prospects, especially for the winter, some, let's say , promising prospects, the question is what is the threat to the entire energy system of ukraine. this also includes a threat to those three nuclear power plants that are not under russian occupation, which are in the territory actually under the control of ukraine, but they are also connected to this general energy system , and accordingly, the threat to this system also threatens the stable energy supply and supply of electricity which, in turn, ensures the operation

of the same cooling systems of power units a and i, as well as representative spent fuel, and therefore, again, nuclear safety is a danger. that is, it does not begin with ends only in zaporizhzhia , here the question is also the three other nuclear power plants of ukraine, and what can europe do in such a case how to make this situation impossible by relying on those existing institutions that are, including mega, it turned out to be obviously not enough, that is, despite all attempts to all the enthusiasm of the director general of grotsii himself who is trying to establish something in this security zone, we see that here the question goes into quite

such a dead end besides all that to me it seems to all of us, as scientists and journalists, that we absolutely need to constantly emphasize the danger in which the workers of the npp are in. we pay attention to this nuclear power plant when there is shelling, but between the shelling, these people are in dire straits. they work. terrible conditions with subtours and a constant threat, and therefore, first of all, we must not take our eyes off and not divert our attention from this problem . thank you for the conversation and thank you for once again focusing attention on this. this was a researcher of the harvard school of candy, an expert on nuclear policy, maryana budgera, the explosions on the underwater lawns of the nord stream were the result of a serious sabotage, the investigators came to this conclusion, the swedish

prosecutor's office found traces of explosives near the pipelines, let me remind you, the accident happened at the end of september in the baltic sea, both strands of the main russian lawn to europe were hot points in the energy struggle between moscow and europe , bbc correspondent adler got exclusive access to the underwater explosion site and then her report is the new front line in the conflict between russia against ukraine and the west. vladimir putin warned that the energy infrastructure through which oil and gas flow from the source to our homes is under threat, and this is why the west believes him. explosions moscow denies involvement looks like we set out to find answers with exclusive access and help from experts in underwater drones see

how the concrete lining around the pipe tore up on parts for this, according to intelligence sources, require the power of a huge bomb, and an explosion or something like that just bends this metal, it has a whole sheet of seabed. so we learned that the damage was greater than is generally believed, but we may never know. for sure, what happened here until we filmed nearby, a danish reconnaissance plane was circling, and we also see a swedish warship, a danish warship, and also a russian naval boat, this is normal activity, no, this is completely unusual, completely unusual, scrap of this sabotage became a war with russia, the countries that conduct investigations here keep intelligence with them, it was disconnected from the pipeline at some point, but it became clear from the wreckage in the pipeline, in

one word, it is no longer this explosion here in the baltic sea increased our awareness of the importance of underwater infrastructure, but also the huge difficulties, you will protect them, the european energy supply depends on the network of underwater pipelines, in addition, there are thousands of kilometers of internet cables under the water that provide communication and allow financial transactions worth trillions of dollars per day, here you can see how vulnerable this system is now norway, which is a member of nato, has become the main supplier of gas for britain and the eu due to the threat of sabotage and espionage, they have sharply increased surveillance in the north sea, any further disruption of energy supply directly affects european security we believe it is vital to protect her and ensure a long and

sustained presence this is the first time the navy has taken media representatives on such a patrol we have joined officers who are investigating the appearance of drones near borov installations in norway, they have made a series of arrests of people suspected of spying for russia, political pressure is growing, millions of families across europe are afraid of the coming winter, and governments from france to britain and germany want to know that they can really rely on norway's energy supply, including panato allies britain is trying to improve its naval potential, what is the attack on the oil and gas infrastructure, or what do you say is very important, can this be considered an act of war, an attack critical infrastructure of the alliance should be used our article on collective defense an attack on one ally can provoke a response from

the entire alliance strong words that nato should not use in practice in an effort to avoid a military conflict with russia but moscow is waging an unconventional war putting gas supplies at risk hoping to destabilize europe and reduce support for kyiv and the first match of the world cup took place in a boat and although the result of the arab fans' game disappointed the hosts lost to ecuador with a score of 0:2, for them it was a unique opportunity to feel the atmosphere of a grand sporting event at home. bbc correspondent marva helve asked them about their impressions and met a man who traveled more than a thousand kilometers on foot to see this action . from argentina to

tunisia to morocco and saudi arabia, arab fans feel the spirit of the world cup, which doha is full of sports, but one saudi fan walked more than a thousand kilometers. i always i dreamed of going to this championship, but so far i have not succeeded because it was always very far away. either in brazil, south africa or russia, but to be an arab and get a chance to see the first world championship in an arab country . it lasted 55 days and it was not easy, he faced many difficulties, the weather, the heat, the sun, sand dunes and wild animals. and once, a

wolf even walked by me until now, and he feels that this world cup unites the arabs. finally, he is here the world cup is being held in the middle east for the first time, there was a lot of controversy around it, but it is of great importance to arab football fans, so they are probably the loudest here, for many years they criticized qatar for alleged violations of human rights and mentioned its dubious winning of the right to host the championship in 2010, but now a moment of pride for local boaters, millions of people came, we are very proud of this and try to present the boaters in the best possible way, anyone who criticizes the boat, people still come here who

those condemning the boat should focus on the problems in their countries, the games continue, so all eyes are fixed on the field, including the arab fans who hope to see the triumph of their teams, and that's all for today, i look for more stories on our website bbc.ua and on our pages in social networks, and our program turn on tomorrow exactly at 9:00 p.m. good luck and take care of yourself. let's see how people who suffer from rheumatism and arthritis live. they heard that the weather is changing, right ?
