[000:00:00;00] salt explosions noisy aviation engineer called me eh spadstancii 750 says listen lyosh says canada some kind of hum some kind of zapripetityu we are okay is there not enough there that he says yes he does not say that impression that it is exactly artillery some or some kind of shelling, that’s what - that's how all the roads in the chernobyl side are white with an endless stream, the goal was to capture kyiv , this bridge is very important, now they heard when the russians were leaving the kyiv region but on february 24, a column of russian vehicles passed along this road almost without noticing any resistance this was the situation. chernobyl was captured almost immediately and the russians began to advance on the cities and villages of the kyiv region. if we talk about how far belarus is from here in general

, well, here at most four kilometers from here , you can already see that power line, this is already belarus. but first, the russians needed a nuclear power plant in the shower, how- it was clear that they would not seize . we thought it as much as possible, it was driven by the russians, there were many russians, the garrison physically could not do anything against the many thousands of enemy onslaught, all of our soldiers and simply on their knees asked for forgiveness from all of all the mothers of all the daughters of all the fathers of the sons and said the storm, forgive us, we could not

protect you 16:15 i see just like smoke, i am so large equipment followed by smoldering smoke begins to dissipate , an mp skips each other, a second bmp skips behind it, 5 armored kamazs respond with a protective defense, then about eight gray autozaks on the base kamaz eh on the next camera we see it entering the territory of the station three tanks from it how the infantry rushes from it on the next camera s i see how one means of access jerks the second time it jerks the third time it jerks and in the end it breaks into the territory it leaks eh nine armed people in black poop after how many days it becomes obvious that kiev was not captured in three days, the russians are starting to dig in and

they are not doing it anywhere, but in one of the dirtiest points of the entire exclusion zone , the famous red forest, these shots were taken in the first days after the liberation of the chernobyl zone where it is dangerous even to stand, the russians bathed and as you can see they dug a lot together with the dosimetrist. what did the russians stir up in these areas? you couldn't walk at all. what was your first reaction ? you were a little happy for them. well, they were happy. they got what

they wanted. so much strontium if we get it there. that's where we're going. the dosimeter volodymyr made it. to evacuate to their village, the teremtsi, it is on the other side of the pripyat river, almost close to the belarusian border, it was also occupied the next day. well, nothing started until it started , you lived as you lived and then on february 25 , they actually started there, god travels, you sat in the cellar the region was under occupation for a month, people are much kinder , they are becoming friendly, well, it’s so scary for us, god had mercy on us compared to impene. this is how it turned out that we have, thank

god, mother, now we will measure the level of radiation directly on the dosimeter together with in the positions set up by the russians, they dug a trench here directly in the ancestral forest, this is one of the most dangerous points on the more dangerous points, right here in the alienation zone , they gave us otaki masks. this is of course a very conditional record, to be honest, but at that moment they said to wear them because it was dust radiation can still get into the lungs in different ways , that's why it's normal for him.

with radiation balls, we start with 533 533, how much is it near the first trench, the level of radiation rises rapidly in simple words in these trenches, which rather resemble graves, the radiation fund exceeds the norm by more than 3,000 times , the russians raised the buried radioactive spots to the surface, what is the fate of those people who dug here and lived directly in these trenches , there is no fate, everyone will die the terrible verkhovna rada, less is known about one case of the death of a russian due to radiation sickness, it happened at the end of march in belarus in gomel took the irradiated 99 more russian soldiers from chernobyl to the hospital, their fate is unknown, this is a fake, just listen to what general volodymyr shamanov told them, these positions were occupied by our partisans during the great patriotic war, and none of them had radiation sickness , this general did not care that the explosion at the nuclear power plant happened

41 years after the end of the second world war meanwhile we are moving on the dosimeter shows a new peak mark what can you say about this quote from a general who said about that this is all a fake about radiation. and what can i say? well, let the generator be installed. he was sitting here. you don't know. well, if he was sitting , i think he wouldn't have said such a thing, because he couldn't do it then. it was a fake. it's 36,800. well, that's a lot. a lot, a lot, how much time can you stay here for a long time, i think 5 minutes, i understood, and you have to run away for half a year. well, this is the level of radiation

, 38,000. yes, he said 66,800 36,800 microsieverts per square centimeter, that is, this is a lethal dose of radiation if you stay here for an hour. i think yes, but the russian generals believe that it is a fake russians kupali cops here why is it a very bad idea when the explosion occurred there are three directions of the spread of e-e radioactive elements of these three three directions of these first clouds the first of them the western direction is the territory of the red forest what it is dangerous because the radioactive elements that fell on the territory of the redwood forest are of long-term decay, the period of decay of which reaches tens of thousands of years, in particular, it is america and plutonium, a year after the disaster

, the redwood forest was destroyed at the end of june 1987 special chemical troops entered the territory of the red forest with special equipment, they buried it, and what of us buried it. they felled these trees and left it in place, and in some places where there was a lot of pollution around the forest, they collected areas of soil and took them to points for the protection of radioactive waste. saying why the red forest yes, because the accident happened on april 26, it was green beautiful spring blooming flowers and when this spot covered the radioactive forest it turned yellow, not an idea burnt somehow the wood was burnt and the yellow is dead what do you think is fate these soldiers who dug in in the kupali e here, they were irradiated no matter what was done there

. what indicators did they receive, some more, some less doses? this does not mean that they will all die immediately, but those who took the most inhaled these radioactive particles probably came into direct contact with their hands they were in those trenches , then, in principle, that would be enough for them to be constantly sick and in the process of becoming seriously ill. galina fedorivna lived her whole life in chernobyl even when the zone was declared estrangement, they started a mass evacuation, the woman remained here, as she calls herself, in her hands, an old photo and the same kyivska street on which we

are standing. have been to where it is better to be at home, everyone has worn it out, and this one is practically like this at home , this one was before the accident, how old is this photo. here are these, i am looking at the people who are walking there, he is on the road, well, this is an accident. that is, somewhere around 6 70 years old, but on fedorivna i didn't go then in 1986, i didn't go and a year ago when the russians captured the city, they walked for 4 days , they didn't come to us, they went to us and by direct message. and already on the fifth day they already went to chernobyl, walking around with machine guns , they came to me again they caught me and my son here with machine guns, i counted the first 15 people, the main thing was that they were leaving with machine guns, all the courtyards there had already been destroyed, the locks

had been shot, all the houses had been thrown into the house , i say and what is this ? you know me like this those 15 automatons were trained and there were nerves, they wanted to speak, they graduated from a russian school, they wanted to make a conspiracy, well, tell them that i am russian-speaking, too, the population, no one here offends me, i couldn’t say a single russian word, who are you looking for at this station, they are looking for a soldier, they are looking for the right sector and azov a you know what it is 2 and we will explain who is azov, who is the right sector , who is an atovite, they are even sometimes new, they agree , but at the same time, anna, it was said that we must free you. who are you talking about with us will read this, you would empty the houses, turn over everything, throw out everything, like

this: in the closet, what were they looking for, or were they looking for gold? they walked around chernobyl, but galina fedorivna lied to her, her youngest son served in the ato in 2014 , and she was most worried about the fate of her children later. peace and says run to my boys, because the boys will shoot you there, they heard when it became obvious that the only way to go with us from here , the only possibility, to be more precise, was to get on this boat and go down the pripyat river, they sailed for about four hours, that is 50 km and there they already got to the positions of the ukrainian military and only then

they already felt completely safe, they went to the river directly to their families and from the yard went down to the water in the middle of the night at two o'clock, and why at night because the drones were flying, the motor was buzzing, they could shoot when got to a safe place, they chose you. it’s a pity i wasn’t in touch, so i sat here as they were swimming. now the youngest son of galina fedorivna went to combat service again and in the donbass, he is now under fire. does not threaten in the exclusion zone, they built a powerful line of defense, now the 120 trio brigade is working here, in particular, a few months ago they left ughledar, we will speak at the very border, we are eyes and ears here speak for today of our unit

of the armed forces of ukraine. the first thing we will notice is that we are obliged to warn with our own forces, if possible, necessarily convey the situation that arose at this object in order to react accordingly . 8 12 every soldier has a special device, he accumulates radiation indicators and shows what kind of radiation the fighters received, these devices are legally collected, measured, and thus sit on the dose that may be inherent in this or that soldier , depending on the place where he is there must be people and the detector was not located, he does in poland there have been cases here in the zone when bystanders exceeded the permissible level of radiation that this will not happen using the moment here in the exclusion zone it is relatively calm now there are almost no people the level of radiation is

normal and that is why ukrainian servicemen created here built more precisely here such a strip of psychological training, from the starting point it is necessary to reach the final enemy trench and capture the enemy bc during the passage of this strip, everything is as close as possible to the real ones combat conditions, i.e. everything explodes around , smokes and you have to pass unscathed, so to speak, to the enemy's trench and return . well, roughly, the passage of one lane takes about 30-40 minutes, that is , you can imagine what a rather serious load it is. well, don't be afraid of breakdowns. smoke is blood er, a piece of the body is lying around so that he

knows how to act, how much does it affect, but in general , after passing such psychological training, it affects and improves there, i don’t know , the fighting ability of a fighter directly fights, well, in fact, by 50 percent if it starts the shelling is here and what do we also do, the engineers lay charges and they explode, and that is, already in the fall, he is already psychologically prepared, maybe it exploded there, shook himself off and ran on. and destroyed everything they could, says maksym razslavets , his company works with radioactive waste, everything is broken, everything is praised , not a single whole door in the zone, well, in general, in chernobyl, in administrative buildings, in

dormitories, industrial premises, not a single one the entire door was not hidden, everything was even the lockers of the staff, where the staff change clothes, even these lockers. they even stole everything. well, we are not in the dormitory personally , they took such little things as shampoo there , they took a toothbrush. computer equipment , they couldn't take it, they probably destroyed it, they smashed it, shot it so that there was only one standing there, they just removed the engines and took them away, the question was how much time was needed to simply unscrew it, put it load it somewhere and take it out, 47 cars were stolen, taken out of the territory of ukraine, and we had gps trackers installed on some of them, and until the batteries were installed in them, we could observe and observe that they

are in belarus. the total amount of the company's losses is almost a billion uah, but the main thing is for chernobyl everything is behind, however, the question remains whether the level of radiation in pripyat itself has not changed, which shows 250-223 e-e of these places 647 593 beta part per square centimeter well, it flickers there 557-615 , this spot was not there, so by chance in general, it happened here, what are the most dangerous areas in the zone of alienation that still remain, except for one forest, there is another lake deep there, where

there was a traffic jam , gatherings were made, they were measured near a birch tree or by sight, you have already translated what does this mean, it is very muddy there, a stain fell today on the deep lake, and all the red forest there will dig trenches, eyes, this certainly surprised you, it was very surprising directly in pripyat, the level of radiation has not changed here they are constantly measuring and looking for these dirty spots, and by the way, some experts say that such new spots appeared with a high level of radiation, or is this due to the fact that the russian military was driving mining equipment and raising this dust or digging trenches in the red forest

where did we find out that it is dangerous not to say anything, but the fact is that it is observed, we walked around pripyat, we did not find such a thing, but it is worth talking. here are the days of april do you understand that nature still takes its toll, yes, once upon a time there was a park here 37 years ago, people walked here without thinking about anything, more precisely , they even dreamed of a happy future, but a man-made disaster changed all life and it seemed that this zone had seen everything, but not for more than a year that's why the russian military came here. chernobyl is a zone where the war can turn into a new great tragedy. two years ago, tourists from all over the world came here to see the consequences of the chernobyl tragedy , to enjoy the nature that prevailed over

the natural disaster and seemed to be the exclusion zone. finally took a breath of fresh air but now everything here is mined and chornobyl got a new dangerous page in the history of the russian occupation, but the time will come when tourists will come here again and chernobyl will become a war-free zone again hanna looks at photos of a man with a son on her smartphone and remembers with a smile peaceful times before the full-scale invasion of the russians - this photo is an interesting story, eh, the last time when he could come home, he took this photo and said, look, how will he look at you like my mother is a birch, a woman, during his stay at the position, igor was injured, an incompatible life, when the war began, uh, he

was immediately thrown under kyiv to the defense of kyiv sms i see that uh, many guys understood what was happening and they said goodbye, there was a farewell sms he was probably still alive after the wound, and he was taken to the 8th hospital. there we still tried to get the shrapnel, well, they wrote that it was not compatible with the wound. he died from the explosion of the projectile. head just a tip for literally a minute, he fought a millimeter and it would have passed without a goat's blow. and this is how it turned out. between the head and the fairy, a fragment from a projectile flew . igor had already been in the army for more than a year, but he did not tell about the real course of events in order not to disturb his wife

and my own son. i thought he was in the headquarters and i didn't even know that they were in the man, and he, in principle , never shared about this work because she thought that all this information was too much to tell. it was you can say a role model for all of us and how to behave in such a situation, uh, in general, he was like that with us, a very serious guy , very collected . to his wife about the true intersection of events , his friends knew that he would stand until the end of the week

. during the war, he was always balanced, calm, so balanced, he didn't have such emotions. and the fact that he was a patriot , that's for sure, according to the words of his relatives and friends , ihor felt in a few months that very soon the russians would start a full-scale war , stands at home, says you know i have a feeling for some reason that i won't repair it and i say something roman you want to be changed he says well i don't know why i have such a feeling that's it it was a long time ago it was a summer we are on this they were planning to install solar solar power stations in the house. he really dreamed of building one. he was, in general, a man of an agrarian character. he loved the land . he was a well-off person because he loved it. but he got a goat for himself so that the child would

eat purely ecological products . he grew tomatoes and cucumbers. potatoes are all theirs today, the kharchenko family still can't get used to the fact that their own father - a true friend will no longer return. ihor kharchenko for personal heroism and courage was awarded with the order of bohdan khmelnytsky third degree posthumously august 2021, 30th anniversary of the independence of ukraine ukrainian soldiers are marching with khreshchatyk followed by tanks , armored personnel carriers, artillery and in the sky, planes, transporters, fighters, attack aircraft, bombers, everyone is watching them from the open, this is their setup, the elite, those who passed the thorough selection who learned to fly for 10 years, whose training cost a million hryvnias, but only in february 22nd we will understand

who the pilots are. why are they? it is more difficult for eli to come home to people and say that during performing a combat mission, a husband, a son, a father died. this feeling cannot be conveyed. and at the moment, sometimes when you go home from work there, you stop somewhere and catch people's eyes on you , in which when i go in now, the pilots do not die, they take off and never

come back, that's what they say themselves pilots, each of their sorties is a uniform for the crews of the bombers, it is double, because they work in the territories controlled by the enemy , their task is to destroy the equipment, air defense depots , the infrastructure of the su-24, they washed the columns of the occupiers under the gastomel and under the breweries, they killed for kherson and zmiiny island helped to return kharkiv oblast and restrain the enemy in the south, the russians said that they destroyed them in the first days of the invasion, but every day they send their explosive congratulations to the enemy and ask so who is destroying whom in 2-3 days people came from the general staff who unfolded the map training and they say we will conduct training in parallel with the russians and showed us a map according to the legend of which we have to work out

there was an understanding that an invasion is possible on the 23rd we had preliminary training we were preparing for flights er work routine on the 24th we had fly at night when i heard the first planes take off i already understood that something had happened because of the rat extraordinary in tunich i was at the airfield we received an order to move to the operational airfield on the third night we received a signal to take readiness number two immediately after that readiness number one and when we sat down in the planes, we received a command about readiness to labunar, a command from our kp for a report and a task for rebasing to an operational airfield , we received almost our entire brigade in the air, all equipped planes are operational were erected vertically. the carousel was one above the other with a gap of 200-300 meters, and we circled like this for about an hour

. after that, we just started the landing procedures , after which the remaining fuel was emergency . when our plane was coming in for landing, i saw the first fish, as they say. the crew, that is, come on, run away from us, because you can see that they started shelling us. he says that i have nowhere to run here and you. that is, there is nowhere to turn . after all the words, i realized that the gatekeepers are not coming back. i received information that the offensive began in full force, explosions began in the morning, somewhere around 6:00 in the morning, i dialed my deputy, he asked what was happening, but i heard that he was not talking to me, but was giving orders to those around him. the worst thing is that quickly things in the hands and in the car and at the base of the understanding of the war
