like each of the commanders, the azov soldiers were the protection for tens of thousands of civilians in mariupol for 86 days, and in may, the military began to leave the bunkers in order to save their lives, and from australia, ukraine needs them alive, this is our principle, the wounded were the first to leave the bunkers, the wounded were the last, commander azuvaredis, deputy kalina, and then there was prisoners until the fall of 2022 - on september 21, a large-scale exchange was held for 55 russian soldiers and the state traitor medvedchuk we returned 215 of our azov foreign civilian volunteers and five officers of the commanders of azovstalia club the state of health is satisfactory, thank you and the whole team for what you have done, thank you, thank you for what you have done, they are still alive, but they have not been able to keep in touch with their relatives and even see them, and now the commanders

of the commander of the operational strategic the group of troops of tavriy tarnavskyi and the commander of the syrian ground forces launched a super-evidence regime of information silence in order not to give the enemy a chance to resist, and the success of our defenders speaks even of the dry figures of excellent defense in june . of populated areas it is extremely difficult on most front lines fierce battles continue ukrainian soldiers have already gotten used to living in the trenches for more than a year the fighters of kharkiv of the battalion of the separate tero brigade hold their lines with guns and shovels. and they still manage to raise animals, feed them, feed them meals from the chef, and even draw comics

on the width. antonyuk returned from the positions of our defenders. we are modernizing our so-called positions because they are flooded all the time, which will make it easier for them to hold the defense, that's why they pick up a shovel every day, this is probably the most common thing, it's like morning waking up and brushing our teeth is always hard work for us, it's hard physical work, you don't get used to it. you actually get used to the enemy being a few kilometers from here, despite frequent attempts by the occupiers to break through the defenses . trouble, one of the cats is going through the trouble of giving birth to an oval for the second time, the military even nicknamed her mother, the mother chose

the deepest and safest place for her kittens, and in order to protect her babies, she also hid them during this time, the first six combat kittens have already moved to the rear, the previous guys made a fortune back home in the past, they opened simply incredible things, kept us awake, bit our ears, played with us, they were so strange, they were small, i will remind you that these are the same , the dentist himself from hark walked on foot i was looking for a place to sign up for the army in the burning city until suddenly a random driver stopped next to him and he asked like this where are you going i said i need to find a weapon somewhere i want some structure to sign up and such and i'm going there i'm like that i came with you well, that's it it turned out that on the 26th i already found a place and a door to knock on, and it was our battalion, a russian with the call sign infantry, gained military experience already here in the battles in the kharkiv region, what is it like to be a defender on the front line

, even if others would see it, so i started drawing comics directly b trenches i saw the difference between military and civilian life, but it was interesting to show people this difference so that it was funny, it was interesting and i started with what i drew - i drew the difference. i drew how we make coffee, for example, there in the trenches, how do we we walk for water as we walk i apologize to the toilet and this picture about the same victory is clear even without words not relaxed who we took off the bursa took off the fairy tale spread out my cat took off the armored car and rests on the shore of the black sea near the swallow's nest iryna antonyuk oleksiy zhuchkov we ukraine marathon, the only news, the russian volunteer corps is planning another raid on the territory of the russian federation, they announced that in the coming month , there is still no legion of freedom of russia, every day something

viktoriya dmytrenko kostyantyn tsarinok, we are ukraine, the marathon is the only news, how do they have to reform the military committees and what nato will offer to ukraine at the vilnius summit defense minister oleksiy reznikov spoke exclusively about this in a long interview watch immediately after the news the broadcast of the national marathon continues i have it all for this hour see you at four ukraine is a sovereign and independent state its territory is intact and inviolable and we will fight for it as much as we have strength . we the people are the only source of power in ukraine

. national anthem of ukraine we will never forgive the enemy who brutally destroys everything we love, we fight for ourselves ukraine to the world for respect, dignity, because we all want to live in a modern civilized world, we respect each other , the law, when the country trembles from explosions , when the night becomes day from flashes we are worried about our relatives. and we are worried about our help . anti-aircraft defense forces hold the heavenly front. they protect us, and we must protect them. do not

take photos and videos of work. american intelligence agents, their goal is the capital of kenya, a documentary by olga koshelenko, intelligence is in the dictator's head, today at 10:25 pm in marathon, the only news from the minister. my greetings. good day , let's start with the trump cards. is it possible to say on the 500th day of the war that all the trump cards are russian? in addition to the trump card called nuclear weapons, the federation has already used it or not, you know , it seems to me that at least the basic set, which in general was the maximum they had, they already tried to use it now, let's not there was a false impression that they were much less in the warehouses there, or somehow it is me that we are discussing

. therefore, now we are not talking about the quantity . components, they even used the tactics of massive e-e missile e-e attacks on the civilian population and attempts to destroy our with you infrastructure , primarily critical and strategic, in the first place with the aim of plunging you and i into a blackout , depriving us of water supply, heat supply light supply energy supply and they all failed ukraine persevered and you know i really, really appreciate the ukrainian attitude and humor even to such challenges i especially liked uh-uh somewhere there was a video on the internet you are in the internet networks like almost in the dark under a flashlight and

with a candle, an older lady prepares a christmas dinner, if i’m not mistaken, and her husband is also older, such a gentleman uses a battery-operated drill and makes it work with a mixer. it seems to me the quintessence of the attitude of the ukrainians to any attempt by the russians. we are enslaved. they did not succeed and will not succeed . please tell me. and what did the enemy learn again in these 500 days, apart from countering our munitions of the haimars systems with their electronic warfare systems , what did he learn? would honestly give credit to their system of e-e electronic radio combat, because we started with you quite seriously to use various types of drones , first of all in the air, and then already

at sea and on the ground, and accordingly they also use they use drones both for reconnaissance, for guidance, and for destruction, the same lancets, e.e., kamikaze drones. but at the same time, they are very strongly developing their rap council of electronic warfare in order to fight with our means that we manufacture in ukraine or that are given to us by partners. therefore, they have this is a powerful school. and this should be taken into account. and secondly, you are absolutely right when you said that they began to withdraw their command posts , logistics points further from the affected area with the same hummers or long-range artillery, but today you and i have from our partners such means as storomshido and here is an analogue and let's say this is why this war teaches everyone and it teaches not only the armed forces of russia or the armed forces or the security sector

of the defense of ukraine it also teaches our partners this war will also be the subject of serious academic research in technical, psychological , political, military, medical, and so on. and so on . it seems to me that the enemy, including er, learns because they get used to it very much it's unpleasant, but they are getting used to the understanding that they are no longer the second army of the world, because the goal of a special military operation failed. kyiv did not fall in three days, ukraine did not fall in three weeks, on the contrary, they learned to attack kyiv with their heels, this is also very good, they have already learned that and you and i saw the so-called acts of goodwill on the island of the snake in the well in the kyiv, chernihiv , sumy, kharkiv, kherson regions, the right bank , and i hope that they have learned these lessons well , and i hope that in the near future we will see

another gesture of goodwill in the east and in the south of ukraine, god bless the minister regarding our partners and their help 500 days of a full-scale invasion can we say that a-a during these 500 days we finally reached the level of day-to-day supply relatively speaking today we are pure conditionally we spend 100,000 shells per day there and already tomorrow our partners can transfer 110,000 shells to us there for example or not we have not reached such a level yet now we have put a difficult difficult situation i can answer very briefly to say no but i have a desire reveal my answer, make it longer if i am not mistaken, according to the laws of dialectics, as a rule, there is a quantitative transition to a qualitative

one . types and it was unreal, it was an impasse, as my partners told me when i asked them for stingers back in november 2021, but it became possible and you and i got real things that we couldn’t i dream again, this is also 155-caliber artillery and mlrs or a salvo fire system such as himas or m270-anti -ship missiles , harpoons, tanks, armored personnel carriers, batteries of various types, high-quality modern bradleys , marders, cougars, well, accordingly, challengers , leopards, and we will have abrams, and it is already clear to everyone today that the political decision on f-16 aircraft has been made now, the issue of training and preparation remains submarines because we already have anti-mine ships too

two ships are standing about you not in britain under ukrainian flags with ukrainian crews and soon too we will have submarines from the government of the netherlands, they say there are still submarines, but these are qualitative solutions and quantitative solutions during such an open war , when there is a war, everything will always not be enough for you , so says mark milley, our friend in the united states a colleague of ours, valery zaluznogo, from the states. when you have a war, you always have everything. it is not enough because it is a war of resources, therefore there cannot be enough shells. and for me, it is artillery, only how much would you like, because i have no idea tactical stock, strategic stock, etc. of course, the needs of the armed forces and the needs of the defense forces are much greater than what we produce in ukraine and partners give, but on the positive side, partners share with us their weapons from their warehouses in a systematic way, and at the same time they have already ordered and i am

sure know and have financed their industry for the production of additional projectiles , ammunition, ammunition and various types of weapons, and precisely that, and most importantly, spare parts, because any system needs repair, maintenance , for example, projects of the european union about one million 155 steel units of 155 mm. he is fully on the march and the factories received european orders, and accordingly , the already allocated funding of our european partners went under this order. therefore, excuse me for such a long answer to your question , but in the appendix to your answer, i mentioned the words of president volodymyr zelensky tell us about the fact that the counter-offensive should have started earlier if it were not for the delay in the supply of western weapons. today, these delays are still

present, the necessary set of systems is almost almost happened but not final that the training of the crews is being completed somewhere else will come, well, for example, the same abrams were honestly told about this by our american partners. will they be somewhere in the beginning of autumn at the end of the summer, and that's why the main things are but uh, when the partners started to check their warehouses, it turned out that what was promised to us is also not in ideal technical condition , many countries, especially european ones, lived in such a paranygma even in a calm peacetime that war did not knock on their doors and that is why in many countries the opposite is true there was a reduction of the army, a reduction of those in warehouses from the freezing of orders in the military industry for the manufacture of new e-e means of destruction for the needs of their armed forces, it seemed to everyone that after the second world war, a full-scale a-a

open theater of military operations in europe could not happen, but here happened and that's why they also realize it for and i see it i hear it i feel it i communicate with the minister of defense and directly communicate with manufacturers powerful companies and not only european ones others and they have all now received this, you know, push to order, so we will expect that they will continue to be with us for as long as necessary, tell me about joint enterprises for the production of weapons and the possibility of building them on our territory while the war is going on, is it possible or not, now only the construction option joint ventures on the territories of nato countries, and only after the victory, the end of the war , the return, relocation of these enterprises to ukraine, this possibility does not simply exist. and we convince

our colleagues that this must be done not only to develop hubs in neighboring friendly countries. thank you to poland. thank you to slovakia, first of all, to the czech republic, romania, they very actively support us and there are already systems in their territories. this is because we have a team approach. in this case, with the ministry of strategic industry, mr. minister oleksandr kamyshyn , there was also pavlo ripikin, and first of all, these are two ministries that communicate directly about the fact that we invite the industry of the world to open branches or joint ventures with our e-business, it does not matter if it is private or state-owned. the main thing is that we ensure the capabilities of their task

. good news that several serious holdings of concerns have reacted positively and we are already conducting certain negotiations regarding the signing of certain framework agreements, memoranda , etc. to open such joint ventures well, in fact, you just talked about the modification of our military equipment in the future , then i have a question about ukroboronprom in the form in which it exists today as an umbrella, some experts call it that , and we need it, look at ukroboronprom for me for a lawyer, everything is very simple, it’s not parasolka, it’s a holding, it’s holly, which manages a large number of enterprises, and there is a government decision, according to the law, that there should be a reform of the reorganization of this

holding with the maximum increase in its level efficiency that's why everything is on the march, everything is happening. i am convinced that today the ministry of strategic industry and ukroboronprom will work together in synergy. because this is precisely the opportunity to combine the efforts of state -owned private business, state-owned and private industry. maybe today there is only one company , only one on a turnkey basis, to do completely in some product, there is still such an operation , there is still cooperation today, dozens of enterprises can and should work together to increase our defense capability take the next corsair neptune are wonderful creations of our state manufacturer with you, but they order in different places or the same projectiles or the same not the same, also at different enterprises, someone makes gunpowder, someone makes detonators , someone makes metal capsules, someone makes barrels, someone makes someone makes the electronics

and the ukrainian chassis should be made so that later the ukrainian e-e artillery system rides on the ukrainian chassis, so i am very optimistic about the prospects for the development of our air defense system. our ministry of defense has increased efficiency for the development of the ministry of defense, the reforms of the ministry of defense are not needed . we are moving towards nato, we are de-facto already a nato country in order for us to become a de jure country, of course a political decision must be made there, a unanimous

vote of the nato countries but we need to do that to prepare, and therefore the procurement system must meet their standards, that is why we communicate directly today with the nato agency, it is called the nsp deather formation agency , i have a direct agreement with jens stoltenberg , you know he received an extension of his mandate as nato secretary general and i expect that there will be a project in vilnius from the english language it sounds, you know, it works managers, it will be a nato support program that will fully monitor our procurement systems of all closed and open and, accordingly, with recommendations from the examination and we will come out in the new year, but we are already moving in this direction, the only thing we need is certain legislative changes, for example, in our country today, a three-year planning horizon for defense procurement is allowed by law, but there are no such three-year funding planning horizons that is, our budget process for the year did not use the money , it remains with you. therefore, this
