[000:00:00;00] fire again. so there is something here. it turns out that this island really was their base from where they sent their boats, well , they sent their boats, which were actually robbed from ukrainians , to the big potemkin island, where they did not have artillery, although they sometimes used mobile mortars. also, there were correctional officers who launched drones from there this new danger for kherson has become serious, and therefore the liberation of these islands adjacent to kherson from the south has become even more urgent, because the launch by the enemies of small chinese wedding drones which are not no radar sees it, it is the size of such an average bird, let's say, and because of that, if it is not seen already there, for example, the observers visually and will not try and will not be able to shoot it down

. this drone is a huge danger because it can correct artillery fire and the russians. they go to places known to them there, for example, the quarters, they hit quite inaccurately, this significantly increases the accuracy of their fire, in particular, in hunting people, and it is obvious that this is one of their goals - it is precisely to kill and injure as many civilians as possible territories of settlements adjacent to the dnieper, and this is direct evidence. therefore, for several days now, we have been recording targeted shelling and even the dropping of grenades , as opposed to the eagles of large drones that are recorded by our pp and never dare to fly further along the dnieper channel, although and there they are shot down by these little drones, they seem to fly with impunity over

the territory controlled by the armed forces of ukraine and cause directly and indirectly a huge, huge trouble . the territory of the kherson region was fired upon 61 times a day. well, you say, let's say that they are shooting even at the bare prystan , which is under the control of the enemy today. i understand that they are shooting at both occupied and unoccupied, well, to a greater extent, they usually target the territories of the kherson region controlled by ukraine . it was written that there are victims if it is possible to have more information about the consequences of these shellings against during the last day, please, during the last day of the wounded chernobaivites and actually directly from the shellings, that is all from the point of view of, let’s say, the intensity of this is considered in kherson in the kherson region as low intensity because when the intensity is low, it is more to the detriment of the victims of landmines and this one. even in one

territory, such a situation is happening, and it was like this today. therefore, here, well, i will tell you that the farmers now it is the peak of spring field work in the south, in particular, the sowing of spring crops, and it turns out that they are either at their own peril and risk forced to go out and plow the fields and sow or, well, plow , i mean those fields that have not been cultivated last year, there are quite a lot of them too, or they just look at their fields and walk around. no, not all of them can stand the nerve to watch it

. they go out and die. i want to say that unfortunately in kherson, various charitable organizations continue to neglect safety standards not only in kherson, but in kherson it is especially because they gather, for example, for hot at lunchtime, several hundred people gather at the same time. there is probably no other settlement where so many people could gather at the same time, even in the city of boryslav , where there are less than three thousand. now there are only a few people left, but there are, but in kherson , such and such is possible. well, just imagine that they have already shot there, they have already hit that in those places and are gathering they are not afraid of drones, i already say that it is you immortals, as if if it hits such a crowd of people, it will be dozens at the same time from one projectile dead and seriously injured well, it doesn't work, it doesn't work, i don't know what's serious. thank you. by the way, i'm talking about the operational

situation of the unprovoked situation, and what happened there on the island of belograd . these are not the things that people need to be helped. well , obviously, then there should be certain shelters where people could eat milkshakes or with us, a political scientist from kherson told us about the situation in this direction, we will now talk with dmytro kravchuk, a deputy of zaporizhzhia city where mr. dmytro, i congratulate you good evening and of course today i am you i hear. i don't see. well, then i'll ask a question. i hope you can hear me too. of course, today there was a lot of attention. i want to. well, i'll ask about the situation in energodar. in fact, the situation there is not easy . it's always difficult there because the city of energodar also bought the enemy. and the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant but as i understand it, mr. dmytro, you can’t hear me, so now he will join in . dmytro, tell me, then i’ll ask him a question, the situation is simple, because i’ll remind you once again that the occupied enemy didn’t just buy

at the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, he is changing the workers there who worked in ukrainian for his russian ones, plus, the enemy is using the premises that are part of this complex of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, the largest in europe, they also use it for storing equipment and ammunition, so i ask , today there were explosions heard in energodar , they wrote about that that the military and the national guard were called in order to try to put out the fire that broke out, and the megate already said that they were concerned about the escalation on zaporizhzhia at the nuclear power plant, let's first ask for an event and then we'll talk about the consequences, please, yes . vasyl, today in energodar, it was recorded that the cotton ball was hit, and it all happened in broad daylight, and you know, there were many different versions of what happened, well, first of all, before the information has already started to spread through normal means of mass information , it has overtaken this process, it is precisely this

mistake that the propaganda media have started to shout about the fact that the armed forces are allegedly there in ukraine, energodar was shelled, as a result of which there were incendiary projectiles and there and similar versions echoed and sounded, but less so here we note that this happened in the area where the sbu building is located energodar just ran away and their position is still there . if it were outside the city, yes, there is a landing where it is located, right there, their equipment is there, and as a result of a clear ordinary military forces of ukraine. yes, today there was an ignition and the consequences of which are still being established, how many fascists there became so good there, and how much equipment

was destroyed as a result of this hit, well, at the same time, it was stated that it happened as a result of this burning of the square and on the territory of about 4 hectares. hit, you are talking about the management of the sbu, it is not quite near the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, as far as i understand, no, no, vasyl , let’s note the key right away. is located within the boundaries of the city of energodar, and yes, here too. at the same time, the burning area is also not located in the administrative boundaries of the city of energodar, but we note that they were located in different directions of the city, on different sides, so it is necessary to say that something happened there

terrible or too dangerous for the station itself, you can’t talk about it here . and this is in contrast to the fact that there only this accumulation of rasists and the activation of their there in this activity is much more important and not extremely negative. but it is so terrible the factor that they are causing their in general by being at the nuclear plant, you know that the enemy is accumulating forces and means on the territory of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power station, it is not well , it is a cause for concern, we don’t hear it every day, they are trying to do some work there, which in principle, how do we we see , it does not lead to anything, but when these explosions occurred on the territory of the power plant, as you now emphasize , it is not in the immediate vicinity and not even 10 km from the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, agate immediately expressed concern about the fact that there is an escalation near the gas station well, because it is not an escalation near the nuclear power plant and we have already clarified it, clarified it with

you. that is why it is the same issue in kyiv, and kyiv was visited by the secretary general of the organization of poor nations , antonio cutiareche. he said that the organization of the united nations is ready to become an intermediary in the demilitarization of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, of course we want it to happen . were there any processes, your understanding, is it possible to talk about demilitarization now, because the most important thing here is of course the desire of the aggressor and the occupier ukraine is always ready to demilitarize and give the opportunity to work to the workers of its station, please here, mr. vasyl, you are correct in how you indicated the sequence of that process, and here i will only add my personal opinion. yes, in terms of how relevant it is, that is, not just that it remained in the background, the application of the general secretary at but here again, let's rewind a little and in relation to what you said about there, only statements of concern from the heroes really on this. calm down

, that's it. unfortunately, and in fact, we have all this activity it was precisely for this reason that we were clearly aware of the fact that, against the background of all this activity and the set of measures that have already been implemented all this time, and it is emphasized here that this is exactly what you know , the monitoring mission succeeded precisely with the activity and precisely the rich so if it is possible to implement this process of single -letterization of the nuclear power plant, it will be a very, very important and very useful thing that, for all this time, and at least someone, let it at least be suitable un but

will be implemented in that territory, and this is an extremely important fact . tomorrow is not the day after tomorrow, but there will be a question of the deoccupation of this territory. and for this to happen , we will definitely have to deal with the contrast of the fascists. they , too, are also preparing for this over there, and this is the accumulation of this equipment everywhere there, everywhere in the basements there and around the nuclear power station, you know about it indescribably, and there is no need to add anything here. they are really preparing for various scenarios there and acting out there according to their method, and they perfectly understand that they are a nuclear power plant can be played as there are certain trump cards in the process of deoccupation of this territory and here it always turns out not only energodar

zaporizhzhia region zaporizhzhia actually the entire continent european transport vasyl without exaggeration because this is north africa if everyone can take it there everyone can get it for nuts i thank you very much, mr. dmytro, thank you for joining and thank you for answering the important questions dmytro kyrychuk , deputy of the zaporozhye city council, about today's cotton in energodar, the consequences , we will wait for more information about the effectiveness of the strikes on the accumulation of enemy from the equipment of forces and means in the territory of the occupied city of energodar, well, now it's time to talk about the war in more detail serhii zgurets, director of the defense express agency - this is the host of the military summaries of the day column serhii congratulations, congratulations to you, vasyl. congratulations to our colleagues. the minister of defense reznikov harshly posed the question to his european colleagues today. he said that we need 250,000 shells a month. what kind of shells are these, or is it realistic to receive them for ukraine ? the issue

of speeding up the production of ammunition will be agreed upon, here is a nuance. we want the eu to provide us with 250,000 ammunition per month , but for the entire past year, all 12 eu countries that have production facilities only 300,000 such shells of 155 mm caliber were produced. so i think that the european union needs to speed up significantly in order to really meet ukraine's ammunition needs because it is extremely important for the battlefield, and then it arose at the end of the day, we will talk about what is happening on the black sea on against the background of the continuation of the grain agreement with the organization of the united nations about our strike drones and why we are asking the united states

for cluster bombs general and organization of the united nations antonio guterres and one of the main topics of negotiations with the leadership of ukraine is the extension of the grain agreement the contract for the export of ukrainian grain through the black sea expires on march 18 and the un insists on another extension russia stated that it will agree to the extension of the black sea grain agreement only in that case, if the interests of its own agricultural producers are taken into account, but there are other nuances , which nuances are we talking about? we will talk with the head of the monitoring group of the institute black sea research by the editor-in-chief of bleksin news with andrii klymenko mr. andrii, i congratulate you, can you hear me

? yes, i would like to start with the military. it is related to international or non -international initiatives regarding the demining of the water area in the area near our ports, and does it make sense? in such demining, first of all, from the very beginning, the grain agreement was designed as a project that is as far away from anything military as possible. even now, we cannot say for sure, we can only to guess whether there is patrolling by the turkish naval forces, for example those convoys of ships that go every day either in the direction of the parties in the odesa region or vice versa in the direction of istanbul. that is, this is classified information and

even there you are like that we have not seen any during this entire period since august of last year. of course, this demining has something to do with this agreement, and we can only assume that those minesweepers that are in the naval forces of bulgaria and romania and those minesweepers that is a naval force they are doing their job in turkey because we hear the news quite often and almost 60 cases are known for damage to those mines . unfortunately

, this is the reality. what happens in the water, uh, they lead to such consequences. well, thank god that there have been no incidents so far with these vessels. this confirms my suspicion that , after all, mine trawlers are working there, mr. andriyu, and how is it possible now that russia is somehow reformatting the use their carriers of missile weapons do you have an understanding of which side this reformatting can take place with the use of cruise missile launchers, well, er, i will say right away that during the last recent missile attack on ukraine, er , missile ships of the black sea fleet for the first time , well, for the first time in the mass media , of course we saw them south

of pikeperch and south of it still. that is, it is quite far and usually they uh with a huge pomp uh and even under the television cameras uh launched directly from the outside the raid near sevastopol, i.e. after the russian warships were hit by ukrainian missiles and after the attack on the sevastopol base on october 29, that is when we see the footage in your story with the help of sea and air drones, the general trend of russia is introducing the main warships go to their e-e naval base in novorossiysk and they operate from there e-e the majority of submarines are located there , approximately 40-60% of missile ships

are located there, i.e. sevastopol is gradually losing its functions as a safe naval base bases, and i think that this process will develop as ukraine receives long-range missiles. that is, we know that the declared range of the neptune missile was up to 300 kilometers, which is exactly the distance from odessa to sevastopol. that is, the more we will have missiles with such parameters, the more so the black sea fleet will move to novorossiysk, here is such a good quote from the commander of the us forces in europe, general hodges, who says that as long as russia will be able to launch from aircraft missiles from crimea, it is actually difficult to imagine that ukraine will feel safe and it is impossible

to analyze any economic plans related to our stability, and if you want to emphasize the fact that it is necessary to continue combat operations aimed primarily at the liberation of crimea from the enemy, and then you can talk about donbass, do you agree with such assessments of the american general, we understood it from the very beginning, and certainly general hodges is 500% right, we see crimea almost in the center of the black sea, well, what can i say if eh from eh foros to if bring the line to the south to the turkish coast in the direction of sinoku, well, it is 300 km, that is, whoever owns crimea, he controls the entire black sea water area, well , taking into account the range of missiles of the caliber that are located in crimea, well, it is 2500 km,

of course, they can from this from these positions on the crimean peninsula, it is possible to control, well, even if it means a large number of these missiles, almost all the coastal states do not like it, and i think that everyone in romania, bulgaria, and turkey will be relieved when russia withdraws its troops from the crimea, that is, until the crimea. the war there cannot be considered over and there can be no talk of any truce there, because it is , so to speak, a gun that is represented by all the black sea states, mr. andrii, and what is happening now with the crimean bridge? that there were various messages on russian channels, they allegedly sent the capacity of this bridge there, what is really happening there now, well, it is difficult , to be honest, it is difficult to answer

this question completely reliably, we uh, that means, in general, our the assessment is that the repair works there are not finished or they are finished to the extent that it was possible to repair the damage with the available forces, that is, while the ferries are working through the kerch strait, when if the ferries are working , it means that the crimean bridge is not working at 100% of its capacity because when they started the ferries e literally the next day the kerch crossing was closed. now it operates four ferries regularly enter they also transport buses and er means also trucks of er veliky cargo, that is, well, it is regularly once two or three months, they say in the mass media that everything yes indeed everything

has already been fixed, but for 100% it definitely does not work more, unfortunately, we cannot say that this is rather a question for our special services well, of course, that uh, hmmm, russia is very afraid of what they built the crimean bridge using anti-seismic technologies, what does this mean in simple language, etc. uh, the surfaces on which the transport moves, they do not have a rigid attachment to the supports, they mostly just lie on them, that's why in principle the crimean bridge, the surface of the bridge, they can be dropped even for uh, if there is a strong explosion, the blast wave can move them to the side, uh, this is not a fix, and this is a situation russia is forced to put up with

, uh, you know, even we say that now, if we want to ease the occupation of crimea, we have to say to the million people who came together with the military that you have time to go to your mother's family while the crimean bridge is still standing, because then it will be much more difficult for you to do it. andriy, thank you for your professional comments for your time and our viewers let me remind you that andriy klymenko, the head of the monitoring group of the institute of black sea strategic studies, was on the air of the espresso channel, and then we will talk about ammunition, about large-caliber ammunition, we have already mentioned that we now expect the european union to support ukraine in the supply of 155 mm ammunition, but other ammunition is also needed now let's watch

a video that was made by specialists of the military unit of the 103rd territorial defense brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, made by specialists of the military unit of the strike drones . this video shows in great detail how our military is converting nato ammunition from an automatic grenade launcher into a kind of bomb that can then be dropped from a copter and destroy a fellow force. can a tank be hit if it hits it ? explosive device making the same explosive device is quite a dangerous thing and here in this video one of the soldiers says that if you cut , you have to be careful not to hit him boyko because

will break immediately a and it is quite a dangerous process of creating such ammunition for an attack drone, and we currently do not have any universal explosive device for drones, and only a few days ago there were several meetings in the ministry of defense with drone developers where it was discussed that we finally need to make some kind of universal ammunition that could be used for different purposes for use from our drones now we see good videos when it is missing it really hits burning russian burning russian tanks, but in addition to the decision to create its own ammunition, there are other proposals, in particular, ukraine has turned to the united states to receive cluster bombs, now we are joined by the expert of the defense express company, ivan kyrychevskyi, ivane, i greet you

good evening, here in italy, defense express it was described in detail why ukraine needs american cluster bombs, which we asked the pentagon using this conference . related to our attack drones, the story looks something like this, if you take the reports of some western media , this time on the sidelines of the munich stickless conference, our representatives asked american colleagues for cluster bombs of the mak 20 mk-20 type or which may have the designation cb u100 features aerial bombs weighing 227 kg, each of them is equipped with more than 24 ammunition weighing 600 kg each of which, in turn, has a cumulative warhead especially since let's put it this way, at first there was some

translation error and uh, we were able to it was reported that we are asking for ready-made bombs with a weight of 227 kg from drones, but then if it turns out that our side is not asking the americans for cluster bombs, but specifically for submunitions, these cumulative supplies that could be taken out of these planes and used as a kind of standard ammunition for dropping from drones. moreover, if you look at it this way, this ammunition, which we can now see on video, is much better than a machine to use for dropping from drones. well , first of all, because it is not cumulative ammunition with a warhead where the mass of the bull e is 200 g with a total weight of 600 g, that is, the story of throwing a mouthful at the tanks and trying to knock it out

. well, secondly, if you even take what is it? then in order to drop personal supplies from drones , then the story is about collecting grenades for automatic western grenade launchers or using old rkg-2 grenades . well, it looks like this if you remember the publication of one of the israeli media, what is there? our journalists for danish journalists show, i'm sorry, our fighters for danish journalists showed where they make a bomb from a bottle of zelenskiy tuborg beer well, maybe they even symbolically chose it for the fun of dancing but nevertheless, it's just showing how dangerous it is our request, the request of our side that was voiced, it has its own rational basis to the american allies , especially as it may appear to us from our side , that is, to find out who is there in syria is a zone of international law, and extracting the most interesting, i.e. productive elements from there, can bypass such a story as this kotavsk
