on ukraine. in donetsk region, under the cover of artillery, the occupiers are trying to storm our infantry, and the hottest direction remains bakhmutsky, even after being beaten in the teeth by our defense forces, the enemy does not stop trying to break through the day before, the fighters of the rapid response brigade of the national guard on this part of the front eliminated the concentration of enemy forces and equipment more reporting by oleh kornienko instead of drinking morning coffee they are running through the trenches and abundantly covering the enemy, the sun has not yet had time to rise high and these fighters have already fired hundreds of bullets at the russians, but even this the number of fired bullets does not stop the enemy from covering the ukrainian land with their bodies, the occupiers are sending more and more forces and

fighters of the rapid response brigade of the national guard to the assault they don't stop either. and while the infantry is firing from the guns, cover them with fire, the artillerymen are already preparing a few kilometers from here. they are waiting for the coordinates and the most important fire command, well, literally now the guys have received the coordinates and are preparing to destroy the enemy target. they unpacked the guns for literally a few minutes and they will start shooting at you and here she is, a d-30 howitzer. she is almost ready to destroy the enemy, despite her solid age, and this is still a development of the soviet union. she has never let these national guardsmen down, even though she is the oldest. but of course she is many times older if no, well, there were such small details that we could, so to speak, eliminate already not directly at the positions on the fire.

but this copy works like new the day before, the guys from it kindly poured the enemy, they do not rule out that they could have sent a hundred thousand russians to the other world. maybe give god forbid, there was a house with a crowd of the enemy, they had a hiding place there , well, we worked on it, meanwhile, the fighters quickly adjust the gun, unpack the 122-mm shells, check the accuracy of the coordinates and are ready send the enemy to hell on the island, and for efficiency, the fighters quickly reload the cannon and open fire again. these guys do not give the enemy any chance to escape. we did a pretty good job with the first

shot . it's a nightmare, but on this day, the russians did not count not only the ags, but also their other weapons, and their ranks were a little thinned out, despite the cold weather, these artillerymen never get cold, only the artillery works rough speaking with them that from our side the artillery war can be said so, they say there is so much work that the cannon is boiling because the tactics of the russians are like in stalin's times, they throw their soldiers like cannon fodder, we work very intensively, the number of shells we spend per day, i will not tell you talk about the account of the rollovers, yes, we are on the spot, we make five to six rollovers per day after today's work, the artillerymen

have created a brake. pro-russian terrorism oleg kornienko yevhenii zadoya ictv facts the only news at eight in the morning the russian army hit residential buildings with mortars in the village of podola in the kupyan district an older man was killed and his wife was hospitalized well, the day before, the occupiers were eating in the two-year-old destroyed house, commercial buildings, garages fires broke out, the kharkiv regional military administration reports that during the day, the enemy shelled one and a half dozen settlements in the region with artillery, tanks, and mortars. continue recognize the reality and withdraw the troops from ukraine, putin is called upon by the united states after he finally called the full-scale invasion unleashed by him a war and not a special operation, the state department finally said after more than 300 days of war, the kremlin recognized the obvious, but it does not make it any easier for ukrainians, because

regardless of the words used by the russian authorities, moscow's aggression has led to numerous deaths and destruction, putin was advised to take the next step, namely to end the war by withdrawing troops from ukraine from the beginning of a full-scale invasion the kremlin officially announced the conduct of a special military operation, avoiding the word war in every possible way, in russia they even introduced criminal liability for the dissemination of information that differs from the official why does russia not attack despite the presence of manpower, british intelligence explains that the main factor limiting the offensive potential is the lack of ammunition, intelligence officers write according to saturday 's review, since october, russia has increased its forces at the expense of tens of thousands of reservists has a limited number of long-range missiles, the british also claim that russia would hardly be able to increase the stockpile of artillery ammunition enough to ensure a large-scale attack on ukraine again, the energy front in kyiv and

the kyiv region, the situation with energy supply is the most difficult due to the attack of drones, ukrenergo was informed on december 19, but thanks to the efforts of the energetics the load on the network was successfully redistributed, and now the metropolitan microdistricts of obolon, borshchahivka , kurenivka are in approximately the same conditions as the rest of the places are not just in the east and the south, there the russians hit the front-line areas with artillery. today there is a significant deficit in the energy system due to shelling. one power plant is not working. there are also restrictions on the transmission of electricity due to damage to the mains . therefore, consumption limits have been introduced for all areas without exception. exceeding them leads to emergency shutdowns, meanwhile, in dnipro have again entered the schedule of planned and not emergency shutdowns in the city, street lighting will be partially restored, but will work it is no more than a third of the lanterns and only until nine in the evening, but on the bridges the light will work until midnight once a day and at night

, the people of kyiv and the residents of kyiv region have been living in such conditions for almost a week. destroyed the high-voltage transformers around the capital, so it is very difficult to transfer electricity here from the general power system and people gather to create their own points of invincibility, coffee shops and shopping centers are equipped with special places where visitors can charge their phones , work, and children can even eat delicious food and play together to experience the darkest times together, when it gets easier, khrystyna havrysh learned , the light does not turn on, but ms. nadiya turns on the hood so as not to fall asleep, when it appears, i hear the sound uh, i still have it my girlfriend is in the house next door, i tell her, if you see the light, you will find me right away. i immediately grab and run in the house, everything is on electricity, and

they have been serving it once a day for almost a week, and at night, it has already become like a soldier, and everything is running because if you don't have time, you will run out of food, you won't have time to wash after the shahed attack, 80% of the capital and the region were left without electricity, some areas lived without electricity for several days in my high-rise building, there was also a scene of electricity, so during long blackouts, life in the house freezes but outside of it, there is no apocalypse, generators work in grocery stores, hairdressers where you can wash your hair, and coffee shops where you can not only charge your phone and power banks, coffee stations and shopping centers have turned into real points of invincibility , the food court of one of them is more like an office center. whole families gather here and watch work every day. because we rarely get electricity at home, the light

needs to go out according to the situation. it is necessary to connect to the internet . it is possible to access electricity. that is why the owners spend almost the whole day here. institutions and centers not only do not mind, but also arrange additional places for recharging and opportunities to work, a lot of people come to us. they practically already live there with families and with children and with cats and dogs. that is, we accept everyone, we do everything in order to survive as painlessly as possible. again , these times unite and people themselves are easier to survive the darkest times together in this large residential complex for 10,000 residents built an autonomous tent in a small town in the yard, people supported us by donating about uah 200,000 so that we could buy generators, buy all the necessary equipment with small pots, our 128th battalion helped us, there is heat, there is internet, you can drink tea and even cook food, your heater is with the possibility cooking there is an opportunity to put

dishes on top put some kind of pan and we have already cooked churk for the whole group here and the most people come here to work here online teachers’ meeting then most of them knew the assessment you know even more many still don’t know the assessment next to the work meeting the programmer anna often has to i have been working here for the fourth day while my mother is working. lisa is reading her lessons. turns it on when the lights go out at school, but now she says she doesn’t always have time to charge at home, it’s very difficult at school because the lamps discharge quickly, and it only takes two hours to charge them at night. kyiv was

always short of energy. chernobyl npp kyiv is fed by high-voltage lines that go from all over the country, and it is precisely on them that the enemy hits purposefully. every attack was on these substations, and the last drone attack was unfortunately very, very unpleasant, they hit several very important essential objects and this led to the fact that in kyiv there is a crazy shortage of electricity , some of them were burned to the ground, our western partners help with equipment, but it is with high-voltage transformers that the capital needs the most, as in the world, in principle, there are very few now and the first pieces are still there up to a dozen found and purchased or already purchased will go to ukraine, but they will be in ukraine there in the best case in february, in the meantime, such extreme conditions of the dog

and the equipment that the russians did not fly in rockets break, transformers do not withstand the cables of the power industry work around the clock, frequent switching on and off can cause breakdowns of both insulation and electrical equipment, as many as 4 days are promised by the power industry . graphics, what is there, if we talk about kyiv and the region, 4-6 hours a day is good and not bad, and the yans with whom we spoke say that the enemy will not break them with darkness, on the contrary. in this way, it only unites and makes us stronger, we will hold on until the end, because this is our country and we are not going to leave anywhere, we will endure and everything will be fine and i believe in victory, that we

will win khrystyna havry and maksymko yevgen tour ictv facts, the only news, the shocking situation in the energy industry was provoked by the russians themselves russians often use for fake incitement lies and outright misinformation, special bots write in social networks about the export of electricity from ukraine, about unfair power outages, about trumped-up houses or trumped-up residents whose are turned off, and the most interesting thing is that ukrainians often fall for such fakes, and there are many of them. but is all this really as it is written in social networks? there is a lot of information about the alleged sale of electricity abroad, the authors of these materials accuse

both the state and electricity producers of corruption, here is the official statement of ukrenergo regarding this electricity export is not happening since october 11, we have found a video on the network, the author of which explains for a long time why, they say, you should not believe the statements of ukrenergo, he refers to the website of the european network of operators, where you can see everything that happens in the european energy systems, here the blogger claims that the flow of electricity to hungary can be seen in particular, and concludes that it is ukraine that sells, we show this is a video of energy expert oleksandr kharchenko. i can only laugh at this. when people lie, they lie . he explains that electricity really flows from ukraine to europe, from europe to ukraine because our systems are united, but now it's definitely not about sales. we transport electricity through europe to ukraine. we use the european network now, thanks to european partners . they agreed to use it as a transit system in order to provide ukrainian

consumers . for example, in order to provide odesa region, it is necessary to provide light to romania and hungary, and from there by detours back to ukraine, there are two points, let's say a station, which is also a city there odessa and this road are more or less straight, which was from the station to odessa, it is completely broken, but from odessa there is a road to the border, and from the station there is a road to the border, so the electricity is bypassed. the authors of energy fakes often contradict each other. some say that the energy system is not damaged, others scare that russia has destroyed everything, the truth is that half of the generation is damaged somewhere in the middle, but the truth of the authors of these posts or videos seems not to interest them, it is important to dissolve ukrainians among themselves and sow distrust in the authorities, and they are fueling it disputes image neighbors and interregions remember the calls for rallies in odessa in

odessa there is no light for the third day and in lviv, everything is fine in the house chats, too, he was restless, he said that the house across the street that has light is better, the truth is again somewhere in the middle, there were really distortions during blackouts and energy experts do not object to this, so that this does not happen, the national energy commission monitors 22 oblenergo did not inform consumers about the time of the shutdown olga babii , a member of kin nkrekp - one of those who study she herself admits to eye complaints that she sits without light for hours. oblenergo recommends informing people in more detail, but consumers must also understand that the schedule of shutdowns is a very complicated thing. the human factor also overlaps here. but mostly they still turn off because it is necessary somewhere caves often make decisions that are not emotional but technically correct so that nothing burns down, houses even on the same street can be energized from different lines

with different damage, the dispatcher of this task divides the electricity evenly he sees that he can apply for the first district, hmm, but for the second, he physically cannot give it to us, but there is one more nuance with almost 6 00 and received a 20 percent nkrekp, some treasurers, as discovered by the members of the commission, do not exist , then who is interested in we quarreled together with the fact-checking expert svitlana slipchenko, we are analyzing resources where there are many such messages, here we can see one two three four five six seven eight messages for december, this is only from one telegram channel of the resident figuslist which the sbu considers them to be coordinated with russia. the list of services was made public in the spring. their peculiarity is that they mix true news with throwaway posts. categorical and historical posts seem to force you to go and write a complaint. disinformation usually works on our emotions. we live

in conditions of an information war, and the enemy can informationally influence us from any which resource experts unanimously recommend to develop the habit of reading only verified sources, the information from there will be a kind of anchor for you in the sea of ​​fakes and deters you from excessive emotions olga chitaylo oleksii ev and evgeni tur ictv facts - the only news ukrainians will definitely remember this heroic heating season forever according to preliminary calculations in november due to blackouts we did not receive heat for a third, at the same time utility workers are happy ukrainians pay for heat on time despite the blackout almost the same as in peacetime our journalists asked how we will pay for the heat , which in some places is three times less. and what to do if the amounts in the payments do not correspond to reality , literally the terror of the russians on the energy infrastructure, and therefore long blackouts for electricity, ukrainians pay much less for the utility company, and the national commission for

energy and utilities reminds consumers to submit their meter readings on time. if you are late, you risk getting a surprise in your bill, because then the operators themselves will calculate the average amount of energy consumed based on the general coefficient, and you can overpay for timely submission of meter readings this concerns water supply, heating, apartments are equipped with meters, this is extremely important, because if this does not happen, then the bills are billed according to a certain algorithm, ukrainians have already received payments for november due to constant outages, residents of high-rise buildings that have general or individual heat meters managed to save on heating, for example, in the capital , more than 90% of such buildings. in the same houses that do not have such devices, the calculation of heat takes place according to a formula that provides for three factors: the heat load of the house, the average monthly temperature and, in fact, the amount of time for providing heat if the amount in the

payment categorically does not coincide with the available heating in your house. you should contact your supplier for a recalculation if there is no metering device in the house and, for example, there was such a situation that the service was actually unavailable in this particular house due to a lack of electricity. well, we will probably contact colleagues from e -e energy supply organization to provide information about interruptions in the supply of electricity to a particular house risk overpaying for heat and apartment owners are given individual heating meters if you did not submit the indicators on time, namely for the heating of the common area of ​​the house, the payment for it is distributed among all residents. the total debt for heating in ukraine for the 22nd year has already reached uah 22.5 billion. despite all the troubles, experts emphasize that nowadays it is extremely

important to pay for the the stable operation and reconstruction of power and heating networks, which the enemy is mercilessly trying to destroy, depends on these funds, why is it necessary, huge expenses are now connected with repairing accidents due to the fact that tariffs are not increased, and the number of subscribers has decreased due to payment, there is a shortage of financial resources, however, naftogaz is attacking heat e-e generating companies, well, the heat supplier of utilities, the combine, which must be covered in order not to stop providing services at all, and neil samsanov volodymyr kovalenko fact ictv - the only news security service ukraine announced the suspicion of russian lieutenant colonel yevgeny zelenov, who on february 24, at the entrance to kharkiv, ordered to shoot at civilian cars, then on the first day of the war, the occupiers reached the outskirts of kharkiv on they staged a ring road for civilians who demanded to let them go home, a real hell , two people were injured and a woman, irina

they opened fire on the car, i thought that we gentlemen would open fire there, i don't know. it's not that they will immediately start shooting at us, suddenly two soldiers ran up to them and shouted, "are they dangerous in the car?", the women jumped out of the car and hid behind trash cans near someone 's garage. he stopped, opened the door to get out and just started shooting. the soldiers were hiding with them - says karolina, they turned out to be russians. one of the soldiers knocked karolina to the ground, covering her with his body. at that time, her mother screamed loudly . they hit the soldier immediately. i saw how he snored. i saw how he collapsed. blood flowed. that's all. that's me. i was preparing for death. in reality, bullets were whistling around,

grenades were exploding. karolina thought that they were about to arrive. they love her, if i survive in the second one, pass it on, i really love it. when the shooting happened, karolina decided to go out. the second seriously wounded russian soldier, who was shot in both legs, begged to take him with him, as if he were not so young. one was probably 18 or 19 years old, the other was a little older. i pure, well, in člečová, not in czech, i couldn't put a person to death. karolina dragged a wounded russian soldier into a car and reached kharkiv, later found out that he was operated on and handed over to the sbu during the interrogation, the soldier told that then on kharkivskaya kiltseva, the locals staged a protest, demanded to let them through the checkpoint , and the commander ordered to shoot anyone who would try to break through
