taiwan has a lot of experience in the process of recovery and reconstruction because at the turn of the century we suffered from a powerful earthquake. we also participated in helping and rebuilding japan after an even bigger earthquake, so in many ways digital technologies can unite people who are in different time zones as if we are in the same room it is called co-presence thanks to these skills we have been able to provide high quality education health services public services even in our most remote islands despite physical separation i think that in the digital world closeness is measured in kilometers on vitay this is freedom lyme's name is vlad and azure at least 77 civilians have died in ukraine since the beginning of october as a result of

russian strikes on civilian infrastructure and millions of people have found themselves in extremely difficult conditions about this the head of the un office for human rights volker-turk reported how ukrainians survived the last day in conditions when some had no electricity, no water, no heating, look at ukraine!

i did not understand that there is a square or something

these are the emotions ukrainians greeted the light with yesterday. well, i will remind you that svoboda life is broadcast live on the pages of radio svoboda on facebook and on youtube , as well as on the espresso tv channel. subscribe if you watch us on the internet. well, write in the comments what is happening in your localities . and so on. in svoboda life, what is happening in the liberated kherson, i will remind you that the city lives without light, heat and water, and in recent days there has been constant shelling, as a result of which seven people died in the last day alone, the european parliament calls for confiscation assets of oleksandr lukashenko then lukashenko while lukashenko himself threatens the world with dirty bombs and issues ultimatums ukraine is preparing for this minsk is preparing for this let's talk about the situation at the front what is happening in the east of the country and what is the current threat of an invasion from belarus further british foreign minister james cleverly announced an additional aid package for ukraine during his visit to kyiv, after a meeting with the

ukrainian president and the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine, the british government official promised support as much as it takes to win over russia, cleverley said that great britain stands side by side with ukraine and that russia 's war will fail. james, we completely agree that russia is not looking for peace right now. it is looking for rest in order to continue its aggression and destruction of ukraine and ukrainians for the sake of children with renewed strength. so today i can to announce that great britain is also allocating more than 5 million pounds to an initiative led by ukraine for the un world food program, the ships will deliver grain and other food to the countries of the world most affected by famine, including ethiopia and sudan

. i believe that this demonstrates the generosity of the ukrainian people, who despite the one who defends himself from russian aggression also realizes that there is famine in other parts of the world. the first ship will set sail on november 26, the day when ukraine commemorates the 90th anniversary of the holodomor, 21 more people died and were injured as a result of yesterday's shelling of kherson, austrian forces shelled the city 17 times, the head of the kherson military administration, galina lugova , reported. the day before, russian forces shelled the city with the artillery of reactive systems of salvo fire, the consequences of this attack, footage from kherson, we will show it next, do we have the material i i think we can show this

europorta just returned home now wait , such as sparks have a new scraper, so the server

situation, the needle enters the body and that is the internal organs, and this is very dangerous, because it is not possible to immediately identify the internal bleeding and the person dies, the water is fine, we showed this the consequences of

yesterday's attack on the liberated kherson well, what is happening in the city, now let's talk about the broadcast serhii nikitenko, the editor-in-chief of the kherson edition, bridge serhiy, good evening serhiy, i know you were in kherson, and maybe now are you in kherson, what is the situation there, serhii must have communication problems, disappeared serhii nikitenko, serhii can you hear us, i can hear him, disappeared, i hope that we will resume communication from minute to minute, serhiy nikitenko, editor-in-chief of the kherson publication bridge, he was in kherson, we wanted to i want to ask him what the current situation is, maybe now it will be possible to get in touch with him, at least by phone, today, in fact, the situation is such that due to communication problems, many of our speakers

disappear live on the air, sergiu. good evening. i once asked you what the situation is like in kherson. the situation is very difficult. kherson is being shelled literally from all sides. yes, i mean from the left bank. if you have seen a map of kherson, then in fact the whole city is turned in such a triangle to the left bank . and that's why it's easy for the russians to shell micro-districts. yesterday's shelling took place quite far from the water cut. this is the very center of a sleeping micro-residential settlement - this is the district where i went to school. this is my district, and i was probably meters away at the time of the shelling. something out of six hundred from there yes, and i saw it all just eh, well, it’s almost next to me, well, it’s clear that

there were also shelling today, eh, i was informed that eh, mines were falling on the territory well, already in the city of kherson, a game also flew where well and there is constant shelling, explosions are constantly heard serhiu and what is the situation with er facilities, i mean water, light, heating, do i understand this correctly, there is no rain anywhere in the city, there is no water, light, heating, er, they promise, well, they are very careful, let's say promises we haven't heard from the officials in kherson, in khersonskoe, it is difficult to find officials, let's say in one of the communities, today near kherson, i spoke with the head of the community, and he said that in a day or two this community will be promised that the light will appear. kherson eh well, we have to wait

for the light. and if there is light, water will appear, serhii. and what is the problem that there is not all of this? four lines that went to kherson from the outside , let's say, that is, from the territory of mykolaiv and dnipropetrovsk regions, most likely all four lines were blown up, the lines that connected kherson with the left bank were blown up. i understand that it is in the area of ​​the village of lviv it’s between boryslav and kherson. well, plus they say that a large, large number of transformer substations were damaged. they were blown up there, or oil was drained from them, or some other damage. that is, all this required a huge, huge amount of work, plus

you understand that demining is going on, including that they are looking for it in the city. yes, it is possible that landmines may be connected to the power line, and so on, and at the moment when the light is turned on, there may be new explosions, so they will work almost around the clock, because it is already so local, that's all military administrations that are appointed by the president yes , i don't know where they are, in principle, i haven't seen anyone in the city for two days, i've seen them. well, i saw a couple of officials. -e hmm management let's say they haven't seen it. well, they are probably very busy and work there somewhere, not in the city council or in the regional office, for sure. in buildings, because it is dangerous, they work

somewhere in other cities that every day the city is shelled, and yesterday we already saw as many as seven people killed due to shelling, more than 20 people injured does this situation somehow encourage people to leave because the authorities offer them evacuation-evacuation, many people leave, many leave, but strangely enough , many people return. literally a column of people, i hope, well, cars. yes, i hope that these people are going to evacuate their relatives, although there are a lot of people in the city and despite such problems . well, 99.9% of the houses there are damaged or demolished, completely wiped off the face of the earth, this is a place where the battle lasted for eight months

. in fact, it was transmitted like this: 12 people lived there all this time, and now there are more than 60 people. people are returning not just to their unmarried houses, they actually return to the ashes yes and are ready to live there for the winter if only at home and according to your feelings, do you know this number , how many people remain in kherson, it is difficult to say , the president said about 65,000 e-e it was on the third day after the release of e-e the police voiced about 70,000 , how very cautiously, it was an unofficial conversation, uh, well, i think that somewhere around this number of 60-70,000 in the city there is such a thing. well, a household question. if from the very beginning, from the release, there is no water, light, or heat. and at the expense of why people there there are some heating points, there are

heating points, uh, i saw how they were deployed, even you are already in the residential neighborhoods in the city center, there are heating points, there are places where you can recharge a lot, a large number of entrepreneurs have installed generators, they also let people charge gadgets there, people let them collect water yesterday i drove up to one complex, let's say a bathhouse . yes, the owner is there all day long. he has a generator working. he allows people to collect water for free, that is, at their own expense, uh, many help with products volunteers help a lot, they transport water, international partners, other cities, today i saw delegations from odesa region, vinnytsia, rivne, er, whole trucks are taking the city of kherson to help, plus er, the locals have already adjusted their lives there, and in principle well, in principle

, more or less let's not say that you can live there, well , you can exist, plus, well, people literally well, for example, this morning i washed myself with rainwater, some of them are gathering parents, well, just in my own home, in the yard, yes, that's the maximum, people survive . so i understand despite the fact that the authorities are urging people to leave kherson, business is coming back, well, at least what we can see from here is that nova poshta is coming back, the store is coming back, some businesses are coming back, they are somehow setting up work there, or even on such temporary rails of course it is that temporarily it is not at full capacity because there is no electricity but they are coming back. the day before yesterday, a saw, a beer , and cocoa in a cafe that was lit up in the evening. yes, there, well, from a generator, of course, but you know this uaz,

there was such a bright spot in a dark place, uh, some cafes are starting to work, shops are working well, the markets are starting to work as they worked, and they are working in principle, business is slowly coming back, uh, the symbols of uh, ukrainianism are back, yes, this is privatbank, savings bank, nova poshta, ukrposhta and atb, yes, and people actually, well, finally felt it. yes, i talked to people in our country, even a small a report about the prices, yes, and in comparison with those of the video company, and now people are happy that they can buy out today at the gas station, i heard from a person that he is generally well, i am surprised that you can buy so much of this on gas stations yes, he hasn't seen this in eight months, that is, for people, such everyday little things are very important, and i think even in spite of

the fact that there are constant attacks, people are humming, somehow, well, they are trying to be happy, at least i watched your previous reports when only armed forces of ukraine began to liberate the kherson region and civilians themselves approached you and told who among them worked for the russian forces or what. in general, people tell you about their experience and possible stay under occupation and what do they say about those who did cooperate there with the russian forces, are they still there, or have they all left or are they hiding in kherson itself ? there are some more uh servants , today we were there. the information we received detained the person who was in charge of pasting

this idiotic advertisement. yes, there is pro-russia here forever , well, such a very symbolic detention. i think the sbu i will soon inform you of some details. in this city, it is very difficult for everyone to understand what people are saying about who among their neighbors waved flags, who rejoiced , who ran for the referendum, but those are the collaborators who would work frankly and openly. well, no, for example, i have not heard about them. almost all of them fled to the villages. the situation is different. today, i spoke with the head of the community in the oleksandri, well, stanislavsk community, and he told me that the majority of them fled , of course, but some of them remained, and in principle, after some conversations, they were detained somewhere mykolaiv them they drove them and returned them. licorice was released, and this worries people very much. people are angry. it is difficult for them to

explain that there are some investigative actions going on there. -e their buildings yes, thank you very much serhiy nikitenko, the editor-in- chief of the kherson edition of the bridge, was on radio svoboda well, he will not join our broadcast, they tell me that the next guest of kherson would like to include one more journalist. well, then let's move on to next topic at big matchmaker, trucks with construction materials are heading to luhansk region, the russian military is strengthening the defense , serhii gaidai, the head of the luhansk regional military administration, spoke about this today, at the same time, according to him, there is positive news in the areas of svatovo and crimea, which gaidai says at the moment it is better not to

announce in parallel with this center national resistance with reference to the belarusian underground reports that the russian invaders continue to deploy their troops in belarus it is reported that the russian forces have deployed about 63 tents in the area of ​​the village of babunichi - this is the gomel region; in general, it is reported that up to 12,000 mobilized citizens of russia have already been placed on the territory of the country, and their needs are fully provided by the armed forces of belarus. well, in line with the monitoring project, the belarusian district reports that russian generals have arrived in belarus to monitor the training of the russian military at training grounds, the ministry of defense of belarus is silent about this, analysts assume that according to the results of the inspection, there will be a report was made to the top leadership of the russian ministry of defense and on the basis of this, further decisions will be made regarding the russian contingent in belarus. what does this all mean? we will speak separately now. i will only add that the head of the ministry of

defense of great britain, ben wallace, advises ukrainian fighters to maintain the dynamics of the offensive against the russian military even in during the winter , he says, taking into account the advantage in training and equipment, according to the british minister from the international community, the ukrainian military we have already received 300,000 sets of winter uniforms. well, military expert oleksandr musienko, head of the center for military and legal research, joins our broadcast by phone, again because of problems with oleksandr dobrohor 's video connection. the head of the luhansk region, mr. gaidae, announces supposedly good news from the direction of crime svatove. the bridgehead to win back more territory where to occupy the ukrainian population points completely

uh make logistics impossible for the russian troops in almost all directions from where they are now trying to bring their people there because they actually arrive there in the same way and the mobilized russians were there in the same way information could transfer part of all, but only partially , the military from the southern direction, they are building a fairly fortified line of defense there. well, they think that it is fortified, they are trying to to do so for us. of course, the good news consists in further progress, the conquest of new and better frontiers from which offensive actions can be continued in the future, and the liberation of ukrainian settlements and the interruption of the logistics of the occupying russian troops, and what did mr. gaidai have in mind? he himself will say or maybe we

will see it soon in the reports of the general staff and in general, by the end of the year, you can predict some positive prospects specifically in the luhansk directions, because there were even such rumors forecasts that by the end of the year, ukrainian forces can recapture both severodonetsk and lysychansk, how realistic do you see this situation? it is realistic in principle and there are chances for this. the fact is that now there are signals , information about what you mentioned recently, belarus, yes, those russian military personnel, who are currently undergoing intensive training on training grounds, for example, in the brest region, that it can be restored, the first tank army of russia, which was defeated by ukrainian defenders earlier, in fact, it is an elite

unit that had brains, it was practically destroyed by the ukrainian military, they are now restoring it, in particular, at the expense of belarusian tanks and belarusian equipment at the expense of those mobilized, of course, in the first place and in principle, there are risks and reasons to believe that this unit and this and these tanks can be transferred just to the north of luhansk region from the territory of russia and from there not threaten us from there and try to hover over by this flank and cut off our grouping , that is why there are such risks that are present, but in general, with an understanding of this situation, with an awareness of these risks, such a careful gradual counteroffensive and advance there is taking place precisely with the aim of securing our flanks, securing ourselves quite powerfully by pulling up our saws and so that the enemy cannot implement these plans and so that these risks

that i am talking about do not become a reality, but the chances are certain. activity in the area of ​​bakhmut and in the avdiiv direction in donetsk region, and the lion's share of artillery is located there, now heavy weapons equipment is transferred to luhansk region, instead , more mobilized light armored vehicles and less heavy weapons are transferred, so of course there are certain chances and of course it also opens up ways for us to let's say to relieve the pressure on our group under bakhmut in particular, because in this sense logistically for the russian troops and lysichansk severodonetsk it plays a certain role and in general if we talk about the prospect of winter british minister ben wallis said that he does not advise

the ukrainian troops to slow down the offensive at all . what are your forecasts for the winter, how it will affect both one side and the other. well, that is, what are the risks and if we are talking about the ukrainian military? and accordingly, what is the situation there - the russian troops, no matter how much winter will or will not play into their hands, well, i fully support the british defense minister 's voice with both hands, and i would like to add to this that britain and the united states and our western partners will increase their support the necessary weapons in order to be able to successfully continue counteroffensive actions, it is also important as regards what military operations will take place during the winter. i think that it will subside one way or another and calm down, and there will be no military actions, that is, maybe for a certain period of time, but it will be a minor break and one way or another it seems to me that the ukrainian

troops will be able to bring us good news by the end of this year in the form of freed ukrainian settlements and occupied territories from the point of view of equipment, equipment and support sleeping bags, provision of tents, heating, the fact that thanks to the state, volunteers and our international partners, our friends in our military look better, that is, they are really better equipped, that they have, let's say, the provision is more prepared just for winter conditions, at the same time, the russians are mobilized, well, this is a testimony already many of our front-line units and not only that the level of their equipment well, it is several times inferior to ukrainian units i mean in terms of uniforms and equipment

taking into account what i will take into account let's say that if our partners will increase our support with artillery and armored vehicles with heavy weapons, i think that there are all chances for you to advance in the winter and do what the british minister of defense is talking about. well, what about you tell me about russia, autumn turned out to be a time of the year when russia suffered continuous defeats, that is, if you take raisin and kherson, will they leave or will they decide to leave , or will the russian forces receive orders to advance in the winter? well, they can receive orders, you understand they, er, their idea was to stabilize the front line more for the winter, to stop somewhere, preferably to continue offensive actions only in donetsk region, where they will most likely try to do it, and in the winter to stabilize the rest of the front, and to prepare a strike by the forged

troops in the spring in the direction of zaporozhye and possibly from the north from the territory of russia, this was their plan , but it was significantly broken after they lost the right bank of the kherson region and ukrainian artillery went to the dnieper and began to destroy them logistics in the south and broke down after the ukrainian units began intensive attacks along the line of the matchmaker in luhansk region and now they are faced with such a situation that they will most likely intensify their actions in the east in donetsk region , mainly in the last part of the transition to defense because the trends are such that while to increase their firepower and support in large numbers. i am referring specifically to the artillery of heavy weapons, because they are not fast when mobilized by people
