well, such an explosion was known to have destroyed half the house. well, at the very end, i will say that the government is now planning to develop a scheme for the company because they started working at night. we must work at night, we will work at night, we will have to work more, we will work more, we will do everything that needs to be done, just don't make deals with the enemy and don't give him our land, our territory and our values, be with us be with the press, i wish you a good evening, we will meet already in e-e on sunday, and now i am saying goodbye to you and brought to you colleagues from the ukrainian editorial office of bbc news, let's watch together from ukraine the live broadcast from london, my name is hryhoriy zhagalov, today in the program, russia seems to have received a new batch of iranian

british intelligence warns of drones, is ukraine ready to protect critical infrastructure britain italy italy and japan are creating a new generation fighter what is known about the new aerial super weapon and the united states announced a new aid package to ukraine for 275 million dollars, it includes weapons against drones and missiles for hails russia has intensified in donetsk region and is shelling the entire front line according to information from the head of the donetsk regional military administration, the fiercest battles are taking place in the area of ​​the cities of bakhmut and avdiyivka russian troops also tried to advance in the area of ​​the estuary, which was repulsed by ukrainian troops in november, the situation in the

donetsk and luhansk regions was also described a little earlier by the adviser to the office of the president of ukraine, oleksiy rostovych, who stated that the actions of the russians are in a very active phase of offensive operations, the ukrainian armed forces meanwhile are on the defensive, destroying the enemy's infantry and equipment wherever he tries to advance. drones, according to them, according to their data, russia seems to have received a new batch of these devices, and therefore may renew attempts to destroy ukrainian infrastructure in principle in moscow and they don't hide it putin himself doesn't hide it he does it as a sign of revenge against ukraine how are they preparing in kyiv for possible new attacks bbc correspondent hugatti ukraine this online total as ukrainians say

attacks on civilian objects and civilian infrastructure in cities far from the front line is how russia responds on military defeats on the battlefield, so i don't think that president putin's comments came as a surprise here. the authorities say that russia will probably continue attacks on civilian infrastructure. kyiv blames moscow because it turns winter into a weapon as you can see, it is already freezing here, the temperature in kyiv and throughout the country is below zero , potentially tens of millions of people throughout the country will find themselves in a very difficult situation without electricity heating and in some areas even without water, some western officials claim that these russian attacks can qualify as war crimes due to the damage caused to the country's civilian infrastructure, but yesterday president putin again stated that criticism will not stop the attacks carried out by russia, we

have seen that russia uses missiles for these attacks and also iranian drones expect that the biden administration will announce new sanctions against russia, in particular the specification related to the use of these drones , and today the british ministry of defense reported that russia most likely received a new batch of these drones for attacks on the energy infrastructure of ukraine and i am glad to welcome on the air energy expert volodymyr omelchenko, director of energy programs of the razumkov center. congratulations, and let's start with the current state of the ukrainian energy system to what extent was it possible to restore even after the previous attacks, what is the deficit of e-e generation, which are not more problematic regions, well, they restored the power system, well, to a large extent, today the deficit is from 20

to 30%, and this is essentially twice as good as it was in the fifth e-e p on the 1st of december of this year, in principle, the most vulnerable regions are, first of all, kyiv oblast, odesa odesa oblast , kharkiv oblast, mykolaiv oblast, and kherson oblast, but in general, the situation is gradually normalizing and i expect that initially next week, the energy system will leave the schedule of emergency repairs and will move to the schedule of planned repairs if there are no new strikes by russian missiles, and here, by the way, is an interesting question, because if we are talking about one question, if we are talking about the generation deficit is another matter when we talk about the deficit, let's call it that of means of

delivery . high-voltage transmissions, transformers and substations , therefore, the power grid. it has a certain limit that does not allow power plants to produce power, which can even produce power but are not capable, for example , 5-6 thermal power plants, they have the ability to produce power, but they cannot do this because because these damaged distribution systems are destroyed and therefore the power can not go through the electrical networks to the consumer and that is why our energy companies are still doing repairs and also applying new power schemes energy system in order to connect as

much power as possible, but if the sho would like to emphasize that, after all, out of nine nuclear reactors controlled by ukraine , seven reactors are currently operating and the situation is gradually improving, you know me, literally the other day i paid attention to a rather alarming message from the humanitarian organization corps myrossel myrosseldya e-e mercy, which warned that if the attacks continue, i will quote here, the entire national network of the country may be destroyed for several weeks you see such risks, well , such risks really exist, but everything depends on the level of these risks, in my opinion, for today , these risks are not as high as this esteemed organization claims, our air defense system is being strengthened, and if it reaches the level shoot down 85% of missiles and drones, then there will be no

point in russia launching these missiles as it will be very expensive and very ineffective, first of all, well, and secondly, it is the biggest guarantee that the ukrainian system will withstand this is exactly what it is the opportunity for ukraine to receive weapons from our international partners, respectively, to strike at those points, at those airfields, at those points from which these strikes are carried out on the ukrainian energy system, and to achieve a certain parity, because the main reason for these strikes is the lack of parity when russia is able to strike all over the territory of ukraine there are strikes and it is practically not she who does it with impunity and if this impunity ends, then these strikes will end, you know, i want more about the protection of the power system ask but well, i'm sorry if this is the question, you

know, maybe it's too naive like that, but on the one hand it's protection against attacks well, it's clear, and on the other hand, once again, the question is yes, and for the boy's mind . is it possible to rebuild or rebuild the delivery system, yes, in this way so that it might be more decentralized and less vulnerable to such attacks. high-voltage transmission lines are used in less powerful transformer stations , and this is done correctly, firstly, secondly , secondly, it means that now the energy system is preparing for shocks in a slightly different way, and already,

so to speak, it is transferred before when the next shock is predicted and the system is transferred to the most secure state in the event of these impacts and damages, and therefore, for this very reason, on the fifth of december of this year, there were no such powerful damages as it was, for example, on november 23, thank you very much for the information, director of the energy programs of the razumkov center, volodymyr omelchenko, thank you once again well, so far , one of the most powerful weapons of ukrainians has been unity in the face of difficulties and the already legendary indomitability of the ukrainian spirit. but this is a retreat. so , one of the manifestations of such a spirit of ukraine are points of invincibility, which have recently started working throughout the country in ukraine, so they call places

of safety during a long blackout of electricity or heat after the last missile attacks whole cities and districts also stopped for a long time . as there is no communication, we created a map with places where in such cases you can come and recharge your phone and drink tea. is it just to warm up? colleague roman lebed visited several such points in lviv, rivne and kyiv. we also decided to take map and walk through arbitrary points of independence to check whether they are ready to accept people there in case of a critical situation, the closest point of invincibility to us turned out to be the delivery point of the rozetka online store let's go and check how it all works with them, you are marked on the map as a point of invincibility, do you even know about it? yes, of course, we know that such an institution was to join its movement. we currently have a court case for the lack of light

. to charge, there are places with sockets , we do not refuse anyone we try to help opportunities, of course well, if we are together, we will overcome everything with business, we figured it out, we will check now how do these points of unbreakability in communal institutions, in particular, in the hnat hotkevich palace of culture in lviv. we have two places where people can stay, two two points of the point of indomitability, this is here and here, workplaces are here on the mountain , this is on the condition that when there is light in the palace, when there is light , that is, when there is no light around and people need to recharge their batteries, work, drink something warm, then you can stay here, for sure, on the first floor, we came here from sloviansk to wait for the time, the light has not turned off. today we decided to come here to drink a cup of warm tea, it is

an independent power source, that is, a generator and a heat gun that heats up the heat, you can also drink warm drinks and tea, coffee, if you need food, that is, you can have a snack there, that is, eat some cookies, there are some quickly prepared food, mivina, and so on here is also the main such another task is very useful there is access to the internet satellite starling refugee with mykolaivka and decided to go in to charge the phone in general there is nothing i didn’t know what was here but we were told that children can come paint and children can study for the second day, there is no light, water, uh, more than 60 children are sitting now, well, we

can’t cook everything from, well, from light, they came to help us with food, well, hot food for children, but here to find, catch at least a few lines on the network to get in touch with loved ones to warm up and, therefore, what communal facilities and business look like, trying to prepare to be useful ukrainians in the event of a difficult situation, the representative of the center for civil liberties, one of the three nobel peace prize laureates, called to create an international tribunal for putin lukashenka and other war criminals responsible for him in ukraine oleksandra matviychuk made such a statement in oslo on the eve of the award ceremony scheduled for december 10 in the capital of norway, the head of the russian memorial organization jan also participated in the press conference rachynskyi and the wife of the imprisoned belarusian human rights defender and lesya

beletskyi, it is very difficult to predict the future, but i am sure that the success of ukraine will be a chance for a democratic future for russia itself, as well as for other countries in our region, where freedom is limited to the size of a prison cell, and the united states approved a new aid package for ukraine worth 275 million dollars, according to reuters journalists who have read the document, it is in particular about sending to kyiv means to combat drones and strengthening ukrainian air defense, the next package of military aid will include missiles for the american multiple-launch rocket systems, which have become extremely important for the ukrainian army. manufactured by the american defense company lockheed martin. as part of the package, 155 mm shells for western howitzers, humvee military vehicles

and generators were sent to the russian invasion of ukraine . expert of the ukrainian institute of the future ivan stupak congratulations, you have already read the list of e-aid, what is in the new package, how far does it correspond to what ukraine is asking for, so take a look he really answers, because all these lists are really agreed upon first of all with our military leadership, then it is submitted as a request to our western partners, and there the western partners already determine what they can provide at the present moment, and here, first of all, we are really interested in ammunition for artillery systems so that the russians could be covered in their positions. and of course, the glory of their imax munitions

is an extremely big headache for the entire russian army, for shoigu and for putin personally, if you pay attention, the russian military command has already reported that it has destroyed so many of these high-martial systems, billion-270 more than they were actually deployed on the territory of ukraine , that is, they lie uninterrupted and continuously well, on the other hand, you can remember which armed forces installed these you are cutting from a tree and then there are still jokes on the internet about the fact that himersus is a splinter, because now we also see the message that the russians have again increased artillery shelling along the front line, what is the current ratio in the artillery, is it successful align look really the russians are now superior in the number of artillery in the number of ammunition however, it will not be accurate thanks

to these high-mar systems and artillery systems 3 sevens or three axes a-a increase in accuracy , that is, they take the number, for example, at the peak, they fired up to 60,000 rounds per day karl in a day . and we are ten times less. but we have the accuracy of a shot to hit a shot to hit a shot, and this is exactly what allows us to control the amount of russian artillery that is currently on the front, according to separate calculations, about 12 artillery installations of russians and only one ukrainian, but once again we take accuracy and accuracy, which is the most important thing in the logistics of the russians, it is warehouses with ammunition, warehouses with medicines, warehouses with certain stylish materials, spare parts, centers where this equipment is repaired, and it is these hits that disable the russian army together however, i

have repeatedly kicked the ass of those who in recent weeks have seen reports that there is a shortage of ammunition for all precision weapons, even in the warehouses of allied countries or already the military industry of the allied countries of ukraine has started to work in order to start the production of these ammunitions for the armed forces of ukraine. i know that the process is taking place. i understand that it is not fast. well, we know that there is a bureaucratic procedure. our allies in the west contribute to it. because some countries that were previously part of the warsaw bloc and where production facilities for the manufacture of soviet-style weapons have been preserved, they will restore their production and for a certain period of time we will have

enough of these soviet types of weapons while the western models will be promoted there while they will be purchased spare parts rare earth metals and technical microelements microprocesses because now in modern weapons this is the most important thing, so i am sure that for thanks to such massive support, we will be able to stay afloat and i really feel the situation under control, of course i would like more more if it was still in april months are the same, we have what we have, but the process continues and it is under control. well, there is literally a minute left, but i can’t. i wanted to talk about the protection of the sky and civil infrastructure at what stage the development of anti-aircraft missile defense is literally 30 seconds. look what’s wrong with you by itself, our ppu system is such a blanket, it is large and the blanket is

modest, made of different parts of fabrics of different colors and different shapes, however, it is one blanket and it works soviet weapons modern western weapons it's all connected thanks to our cool it specialists, they all connected and it all works , you can't say oh, that's another system it won't work, everything will work, everything will be connected and work to protect ukraine, the ukrainian sky, thank you very much military expert of the ukrainian military expert of the ukrainian institute of the future ivan stupak well, in the meantime, also about weapons, but a new one britain, italy and japan are creating a fighter of a new generation, the prime minister of great britain announced such a project the sunok fighter is planned to be put into operation sometime in the 2030s, and the plane will be equipped with the most modern electronic equipment, including a powerful computer with artificial intelligence functions that will be able to come to the aid of the pilot in

emergency situations when it is necessary to make complex decisions instantly, and everything that is known about the new air super weapon was collected by bbc correspondents to say what this plane will be capable of. in addition to the fact that it will be similar to any other hypersonic fighter, that is, the plane is faster than sound maybe it will fly without a pilot, so with or without a pilot, the plane can look like a drone, it can work in communication with a group of other drones, it can be equipped with hypersonic weapons, and of course, this whole idea of ​​​​the design of the plane is for its invisibility, that is, in other words, this plane is very similar to the f-35, which the americans developed together with other partners to enter the rear of the enemy in the disputed airspace protected by air defense and at the same time remain invisible to it. this is the goal of a serious partnership

the project in particular japan joins because italy and great britain have already worked together on a fighter called tempest, japan usually does not cooperate with european countries in major defenses like this one, it cooperated with the united states and claims that it will continue to do so, but this project is important from the point of view of britain's attention to the concerns of the countries of the pacific region regarding china and other threats. i think this shows the importance of alliances and ukraine has shown how important it is for countries to have their own defense industry to produce weapons such as advanced fighter jets, which ukraine is obviously not yet capable of doing, it also shows that people are worried not only about the security situation in connection with the events in ukraine and russia, but also about what is happening in china, for example. we saw how the british troops went to japan for a joint exercise with the japanese defense forces and we see that japan began to act more globally than

before because after the second world war the rest of the world did not involve it too much militarily but this has changed due to china's military dominance in the region and by actions towards north korea of ​​course five state-of-the-art fighter jets which again mainly developed by the us became the most expensive defense project in pentagon history it cost over 1.5 billion dollars but this included the construction of hundreds of maintenance aircraft and so on. so this is not a cheap game. the british government has allocated 10 billion pounds for this project, but this money will go away very quickly, so partners are needed. well, this week several embassies of ukraine immediately received more suspicious parcels. the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine, dmytro kuleba, announced this the other day. according to the minister, the list of embassies that received such suspicious packages was added to the representative

of ukraine in denmark and romania. dmytro kuleba urged them to stop wasting time and money on postage stamps and terrorizing the ukrainian embassy stressing that such pressure on the work of the ukrainian dip institutions will not affect the first packages with explosives received at the embassy of ukraine in madrid about updates on this case, my colleague tetyana kharchenko asked the post of ukraine in spain, serhiy pogreletsev, what are the updates on the case of the explosives sent by the embassy of ukraine in spain, and how is the employee of the embassy who opened this package to be addressed to you packages with explosives and suffered on the first day a lush with to the second question. first of all, thank you to the staff. i opened the package and he is feeling well now . he is working at the workplace. in fact, on the same day he was given the necessary medical assistance, the spanish side worked very quickly , very quickly, first of all, they provided assistance to a medical

employee, e-e, the shift received a minor injury to his fingers, and after he was provided with appropriate medical assistance, he returned to the performance of his duties, e-e, the competent authorities, the police, special forces immediately arrived at embassies and took all the necessary measures, uh, that is, the investigation is ongoing, the investigative actions are ongoing, uh, the spanish side promised that we will measure how relevant information will be received, we will have the evidence to inform whether there was any other pressure on the embassy before this case with explosives no , no similar cases were recorded, actually on november 30, it was the first case when a package with an explosive substance was sent, then on the second of december,

uh, we received a package that received another similar to those that started to receive our other diplomatic institutions, that is, with elements of organic matter in the eye of an animal, well, we did not open this package immediately before this, when the police had already seized this correspondence and it is working, they sent it for a forensic investigation and they are working with this material, which has also been recorded in spain. on december 5, three packages were sent to the post office addressed to the consulate general of ukraine in barcelona, ​​the consulate in malaga, and the embassy, ​​but this correspondence was seized. not by the special services, but actually by the police . and also in the post

office and uh, these materials are also attached to those materials that are already being processed in the framework of the relevant criminal case. well, we can all understand who, in principle, is responsible for all this, and therefore what can you er say for sure that er um no the spaniards are not us with such things i mean diplomatic representations you can't intimidate you can only achieve the opposite result ask for cool work and cooperation and er you should wait for the results of the official investigation to translate this legally into a classic practical plane in order to be able to identify those behind these things and punish the criminals

when you say that we all know who can be behind this, who do you mean, who is the state in our country terrorist is recognized as a european by the european union and many countries. i hope that spain will also join the circle of countries that have recognized russia as a terrorist state, and bibi has published a list of the seniority of women from different countries who inspire and influence the world . among them, the first lady of ukraine, olena zelenska, a journalist, kristina berdinskyi, during the war, she traveled throughout ukraine, reporting from regions that were shelled by russia, a doctor from kharkiv, iryna kondratova, despite constant shelling, she and her team continued to take care of pregnant women and newborns in the kharkiv regional perinatal center. mathematician maryna vyazovska this year became the second woman in history to
