approaches to avdiyivka, the suburbs. increasingly, you can hear the sounds of small arms. bk is bringing new attack aircraft, the battle tactics are similar to the one currently used by the occupiers during the attack on bakhmut, small groups are trying to break through the defense of the armed forces of ukraine, they discover our points of fire and then they hit there with artillery. well, is a trained machine gunner good at uh, a wgs operator, all these small groups are very fast if he is attentive , there is an uh observation point of the guys, he hmm , they gave him a signal to move a small group, no matter who of mobilized vagnev residents in the regular troops or the fighters of the regular troops, a well-trained gunner from the ags can untangle this whole group in a few minutes, all that

remains in the city are more than 2,000 people, if the locals still left in the fall, now those who have made up their minds are here they spend the winter here in avdiivka, the locals gather together, choose some surviving rooms, the basements there, everything is insulated as much as possible and they are going to meet the frosts, every day we count, we already have 88 days to live until spring, we counted november, december, january, february, difficult months, november, somehow, god sent that he was like that good november, here is december, god still sent us 88 days left, it will be spring and we will be alive every day, the russians are literally dismantling the city with their artillery, whole districts of avdiyivka, somewhat completely thousands of citizens lived recently, now the houses are in ruins, charred from constant fires, empty windows, whole spans of five floors have collapsed, concrete floors under the pressure of their weight are falling lower and lower, now these houses are like a

concrete shield for the city, they take the blows of enemy artillery and from this deadly several thousand residents of avdi are trying to hide from the fire, here are the inscriptions on the doors, this is a reminder of the first shelling of the city, here, on february 28, the heating went out, on april 27, the first hit to this house in the neighboring the column is counting the days of this full-scale war and the days until spring, because then the heat will finally return , we never thought that we would live like this in this local children's library, they found a temporary shelter, two local women installed a small house in this room and they sleep here, the neighboring room is called a refrigerator because of the low temperature in the room here, among the books, they store the products . a neighbor installed a stove. now the room is warm . then we got a stove with pipes, and he did it himself. he put it in and took it out there.

we get firewood where we can, we go, we chop and saw, we ask someone to cut firewood for us, and it’s so hot here, it’s definitely hot , that’s what we hear here now, because it’s impossible to stay in apartments 1° 1-2°. and eight people will spend the winter in this basement, women live here, and boris is the only man here, everything is in the household, firewood is cut, water is applied , food is found, and this is all under constant fire . home is here they also set up a small house, stocked healthy ones, carefully stacked them under the basement wall, close to people and warmth, and the dogs, abandoned by their owners, huddled together and were abandoned by their owners. this dog, nicknamed the friend, was saved from

death by the locals. i sprained my paw, i was shot, i was hit, i blew up my paw, i was treated, i live in an avdiivka, now it's like walking on the edge, you never know where a russian shell will fall, but despite this, people are somehow adjusting to the positive. new year's holidays are ahead. although it is even difficult to imagine what holidays can be like in broken houses and under the sights of enemy artillery, but many locals, like olga ivanivna , believe that the white ones are better. of ukrainian documents , the ukrainian ombudsman dmytro lubinets gave the following advice to the government in his report on respecting the rights of people who suffered as a result of russia's war against ukraine, an official

singled out five points, in particular ensuring the rights of displaced persons and people in the temporarily occupied territories, violations of international humanitarian law during hostilities, did not bypass the commissioner for human rights and citizens who found refuge abroad, and also singled out the subject of deportation and relocation of ukrainians on the territory of the russian federation according to his data 46,000 people were forcibly deported to the territory of the russian federation, such an innovation from us. i appointed a representative and presented him on the territory of great britain. the appointed person is on a volunteer basis, but with a certificate from my representative, who is already in addition to the national representative and meets with

citizens of ukraine. when a problem arises, the consular institution helps the diplomatic mission to solve the issue. we understand that the russian federation not only does not it provides us with information and does not contribute to the return of our children whom they are forcibly deporting, but we must look for a mechanism at home 64 ukrainian defenders returned from russian captivity are officers - privates and sergeants who fought in the donetsk and luhansk directions, in particular, participated in the defense of the city of bakhmut, it was also possible to free the citizen of the united states, sea casey suedi, who helped our people, said the head of the president's office andriy yarmak, in addition, the bodies of four dead boys were returned with the return glory to ukraine glory to ukraine glory to ukraine to recognize the

we are from ukraine greetings dear tv viewers a-a my name is vasyl zamatsevlektyr on the espresso tv channel today is the 294th day of the great war of the ukrainian people against the russian invaders i we will work with you there in mykolaiv until the 21st. we will talk about what happened, and we will promptly report what will happen during our broadcast. i will immediately add to the conversation serhii gaidai, the head of the luhansk regional military administration. serhii greets you. good evening, glad to see and hear. i i would like to ask about the situation - first of all, what can be said about the situation on the battlefield, especially in those key places of confrontation between the ukrainian military and the aggressor's army in the luhansk region, which are now, please, in the area and remain so the situation has not changed, uh, they are trying to

attack the russian occupying forces around the clock, the positions of our defense force, nothing is working out of them . the defense force is successful. yes, i have already said many times that there is no need to wait there. in the near future, we have certain problems with communication. we will try the big ones. sergey gaidai. because it is important for us to hear what is happening in luhansk region only in the security situation, not only in relation to the events at the front, but also in relation to the humanitarian situations, for the most part, the luhansk region is currently under enemy occupation. to create all the prerequisites for carrying out

large-scale counteroffensive actions, of course, expect a lot. now we cannot, given many things and given the fact that the weather situation is not conducive to such an active actions yes, there are many other, uh, many prerequisites, on the other hand, in the pentagon, they emphasize that after the new year, the armed forces of ukraine will be ready for active counteroffensive actions, but this will not be discussed later. sergey, let's return to the conversation, please continue talking about asfatovo- kriminov well, i already said that we should not expect any major breakthroughs there in the near future, because every meter of luhansk region is very difficult to achieve , but nevertheless we state that the defense forces are having success there, little by little, but surely i am moving forward. just today i read that in the united states of america, the pentagon is convinced that after the new year, ukraine will, er, carry out large-scale counteroffensive actions,

but i don’t even know where such information in the pentagon comes from. and why are they talking about this, but i would like to? well, i would like it to be, let's say, the luhansk direction, but we'll see. i wouldn't like to ask now about the humanitarian situation, especially if we are talking about territories occupied by the enemy, and not about territories occupied by the enemy, and how is life there given the weather conditions, winter, cold, light, heat, food, some kind of means for warming, medicine, please tell me, well, let 's talk briefly about one thing, the occupied settlements , we provide the people there with humanitarian kits, we constantly offer to evacuate, who has such a desire because the shelling of the liberated settlements and nevsky istimakhivka and makiivka and some other settlements are still being shelled, but we , in principle, provided people with products

they provided me with some kind of primary medicine , medics like that, it’s possible now, it’s uh, it’s a problem with communication again, let’s not be uh, and there is communication, yes, sergey, please, but the situation in the occupied territory is difficult, especially where the active phase of hostilities was taking place i said there a long time ago that the occupiers will not be able to fulfill their promises regarding gas, electricity, water, and so it happened . the network itself has been examined, so there are many leaks, uh, as for electricity, well, now the temperature will be negative, a little more, people will start connecting electric heating, and it will all just talk

because everything was done unreliable, that's why we see, in principle, under some high-rise buildings, uh, heavy trucks that just bring firewood in nine-story buildings, i recently read a story the other day about a dangerous city where there are basically no people, as far as i understood from what i read, and a city that russia turned into a ghost, maybe you know maybe but there are many such settlements now in the occupied territory of luhansk region that have actually become ghosts, they are unsuitable for the life of people, probably, and for the life of stray animals there, dogs or some animals abandoned by their owners, which may be wandering in the fields somewhere and forests, please, by the way, regarding popasnaya, the promises of the occupiers were to restore and rebuild everything, and then they twice officially declared that the reconstruction of popasnaya makes absolutely no sense. and i can tell you

popasna is destroyed, belogorivka is also destroyed, what about rubizhne is destroyed 50 by 50 50% of the settlement is destroyed 50 e-e is still habitable in principle severodonetsk is 90% shelled from which 70% of the buildings e-e are critically a-a destroyed and will need them simply to restore from scratch toshkavka on vatoshkavskaya a-a makiivka is completely under fire . unfortunately, the occupiers will continue to destroy our points and then talk about what remained destroyed and what can be repaired only after we push them back at least 40 km so that they do not reach well rzso are like how to play. yesterday i spoke with mr.

andryushchenko. he talked about the situation in mariupol and told me that it was the day before yesterday, the day before yesterday, and he talked about what we should say already in the spring, considering how many people are now being brought from russia and coming to mariupol these are also the builders there, some workers who will later bring their families as well, despite the fact that now the local population, those who have ukrainian citizenship, they are actually experiencing and really and the cold, as they say, and and and and and ethnocide because there is no food food is normal, work is normal, no conditions for living and that in the spring, it is obvious that there will be more russian population in mariupol well, for sure it may be like that than ukrainian, then the question will be how to deal with all this when they all settle in. well, well, mariupol is clear. for them, it is something like the symbol is not clear why, but the symbol is here in luhansk region, are there similar movements regarding the importation of russian citizens, specialists, or simply who wants to live there in order to displace the local population in the future and, er, minimize the risks of deoccupation for themselves, although it is unlikely that they

minimize it, please. they were indeed coming , and teachers and doctors and repair crews were coming in order to restore some kind of infrastructure somewhere, for example, like the happiness of restoring the water supply, but they all almost left, and as soon as they realized that de-occupation was inevitable, the doctors got together and left first of all, the same is true of teachers, and we generally had a funny situation with repair brigades, because in principle they were almost taken to the front, there were repairmen from the suburbs of moscow and there was a huge scandal and, well, in the end, they they let go but half of this repair crew did not go to work in the morning, they went home because they understood that one more day or two of such work and they would simply be on the front line. kidnappings of people to send them to the front in luhansk region actively continued in the spring and summer, and what is the situation as of

now, in my opinion, it was in donetsk region, if i am not lying now, because i may not remember that women are already being forcibly mobilized because there are no men there it remains obvious, well, who could at least physically meet at least some requirements, at least not to fall down with a heart attack immediately after the start of hostilities. and in luhansk region, this forced mobilization is currently ongoing, or there is no one to take, and women are not taken yet, please a- well, the mobilization continues until now, it has not stopped. it just went through the evolution from uh-uh there to mobilization under cheers with patriotic slogans for the lnria, uh-huh, it went through the evolution of financial motivation and then everything was already finished with forced mobilization without asking without medical commissions a-ah na today, equipment is being removed from large enterprises and chess, and it is all being taken out accordingly. people, well, men are left without

work, and this will prompt the occupation authorities to take them and send them to the front. as for women, well, so far, 100 there is no information that all of them will be mobilized directly, but i do not reject the fact that the next stage will also be the option that women will also be mobilized. thank you very much for joining . thank you for your comments. we learned more about the situation in the luhansk region and serhiy gaidai, the head of the luhansk regional military administration, was in touch with us. and now we are bringing in serhii bratchuk, the spokesman of the odesa regional military administration. serhii, i congratulate you. glory to ukraine . glory to the armed forces. today two kamikaze drones were shot down over odeshchya, were there any that were not shot down, perhaps i have not read everything and i do not know about everything no, please tell me about today's drone attack, which not only kyiv experienced to be honest, but odesa and odesa as well,

please. well, let's start with the fact that there has been no official information about the drone-kamikaze attack, especially those mopeds that have been killed, and whether it will appear again, we will definitely inform you about it because, you know, once again i want to talk about information hygiene, especially here in odesa , we need it. units of the information and psychological special operations of the russian federation, so let's still use those messages that spread through social networks and official ones, that is , the regional military administration can report about it to the military command, so how will they be shot down, how will the attacks be, of course we will talk about it but about the energy front then please well, i will say that this is the information that i took. it was transmitted

by the publication of the region news, and this was reported by the telegram channels of the operational armed forces of ukraine, well, it is about shot down these two people without this world, which telegram channels reported who disseminated it, therefore, urges colleagues to wait for official information after all. shoot down i will even write a poem, which i always do with pleasure, about how our air defense forces work, i completely agree with you and, well, actually, that's what we're for. that's why we're talking to you, battery. what could you confirm or deny here? you haven't yet confirm, so we will wait for confirmation regarding the drone attacks and how they acted against them. i want to ask about the electricity situation in odesa and in odesa in odesa , because the situation was probably the most difficult lately than in the entire territory of ukraine, well , at least days more territory ukraine, how is it possible to restore the electricity supply, please, the situation

in the odesa district is indeed the most difficult for today. well, of course, they take into account the temporarily occupied territories there a little another question is that the attack really did harm us, the consequences and today the energy industry is liquidating more than 200 emergency teams working around the clock and there are a lot of applications because it is quite difficult to restore everything, but once again i want to say that the headquarters that has been working around the clock since february 24 in to the regional military administration, full communication is of course clear. with the energy workers, well, a lot of effort and extraordinary effort is needed to ensure that the capacities are adequate . came to the houses of odessa residents, there are many questions about that well, it is clear that there are those houses where the electricity does not turn off, it is

clear that it is a network with objects of critical infrastructure, we are talking first of all about the fact that we kept the energy, or rather, i apologize for the critical infrastructure language it's about hospitals, about maternity homes, and about other objects that provide the vital activity of the region and cities, but in general, we are now very careful about submitting information about renewable works to what the city is trying, i said about ipso for a reason, including trying to use this information to then plan possible attacks with the same kamikaze drones and missiles on these objects of our energy infrastructure, therefore, be very careful, but the main thing is that the electricity is gradually returning gradually for several hours minimum this is electricity coming to the apartment of odessa residents. we are not talking now about scheduled power outages
