[000:00:00;00] points already on the second line of defense from the russian occupiers. therefore, the liberation of the fertile area is a way out of a on the old linivka and also from the old e-e staro majorsk, this gives us the opportunity to reach the covenantal desire. thus , we will be able to cover the fertile and e staro majorsk a cherished desire and to force the russians to flee from there already a cherished desire - this is the last village that is on the way to starovynivka, also interesting things are happening on the left bank of the kherson region , no official information is coming from there, but here we see successful raids by our forces the defense of this major, the volume of capture, because of which he was captured, because of which the russians in their publics were very excited about how serious problems these limited

raids represent. well, let's talk about it as it is. -e of special operations, that is, what is happening . well, for example, in the zaporizhzhia region along the battle lines of the conflict in donetsk and luhansk, when our subversive and reconnaissance groups enter the territory temporarily controlled by the occupiers and perform their combat tasks on this territories. well, for example, there they destroy the enemy in some positions, this or some other combat tasks, and then turn back . the same thing happened in the left bank kherson oblast once when the right bank kherson oblast was liberated . the right bank was also liberated, but for some reason, attention is focused much more on these locations, for some reason or another. that , unlike the zaporizhzhia region of donetsk luhansk region, there is the dnipro river, it must be forced. so, if this is a forcing, it is some kind of almost amphibious

operation of an offensive nature, and after all , the bridgehead is actually expanding the everyday routine of the activities of our sss units, which has been happening since 2022, but now it is more noticeable why and because the accumulative element is happening, and each of these operations was aimed at the destruction of this or that group of occupiers, the clearing of this or that position, they return back, this position is permanent . it is under fire control from our artillery, the russians cannot return to this position, the gray zone is expanding, so it is more like the effect of expanding the 40 zone, but it is definitely necessary to understand that each of our actions is for each of ours. such subversive intelligence activity is also a brick for the future. our offensive is already on the left bank , but it is too early to talk about it. for now , we can only talk about the creation of conditions and

not the process of some kind of bridgehead. the formation of the start there, and forcing and offensive actions no, for now, it is not necessary to drip events, that is , now the expansion of this gray zone that you are talking about. it is more of a preparation, so the creation of the gray zone itself is not an end in itself. for example, some of their artillery did not mine the right bank. this is actually even the formation of a corresponding security buffer zone , which is so necessary for the right bank . by the way, it is precisely due to high-quality contraband fighting on our part that we can control their processes almost along the coast of the left bank about major tomova i already mentioned that yesterday telegram channels posted a video where he gives some information to the defense forces on a map showing the positions of the russians, and to what extent

can such information be trusted in general, and in your opinion, what is it for? the video was published, any information is checked for a word that has not been believed for a long time, you know these stories, i didn't know where they were taking us, i thought it was for training , well, no, who doesn't believe it and everything else, that is, all the information is checked carefully , but if he provides really useful information, well, it is only a plus to the actions of our armed forces, eh, why was there a demonstration, well, this question is related to the informational context , for example, to the fact that he is actually alive and not only alive, and also eh gives the appropriate transmits the relevant data and the russians, well, of a kind, so that they already perceive him with the appropriate position. apparently, this was necessary in order to really force this person to do something with the understanding that, well, the gatekeeper

will not be back for him anymore, continuing the theme of the afternoon of this night, the russians again previously in mind, they attacked odesa region again, but for the first time in the entire period of their massive attacks on the odesa region, everyone was shot down and rockets and martyrs give the impression that they strengthened the air defense system there or what do you think explain this result of the work of the anti-aircraft defense , i don't know if it was strengthened in the odesa region since the last time, and the last massive shelling was on july 23. kamikaze 136, our anti-aircraft missile, has always shot down quite successfully , that is, we have a caliber that opposes them at a fairly high level of 90%, and even more efficiency of our air defense, we have problems with the other

, but the second missile, which we cannot at all to shoot down in odessa in the odesa region, this is h22 - this is p800-tonix, this scandi-m, and the russians used them precisely because they knew about these vulnerable e-e places to shoot down these missiles. we need either zrk patriot or zrk semti or we have today hmm some of these complexes appeared in odesa and the odesa region after the massive strikes of the previous series and i don't know this information , but the fact that it was used missiles and drones that were shot down quite successfully , that's why it's such a result is almost 100% well, interesting events happened here more precisely, they have it on an illegal extension called the kerch bridge. so where did we see the shots of the smoke curtain, like white smoke, black smoke of some specific information that happened there, and it never came, that 's why the russians say that they shot down everything,

but we can't tell them to trust what we learned as a result of this attack on the kerch bridge about its protection system of the current and perhaps you know that how this bridge is functioning now well, i will say so ah really the protection system of the crimean bridge is sufficient let's say yes, it is dense air defense, first of all, if we are talking about threats from the air but the fact that they used a smoke screen, well, this is the level of the second world war, in fact , what kind of smoke screen, for example, against, well, i imagined modern missile weapons, which in any case have ns, well, that is, inertial the navigation system is not what kind of smoke screen there will not help at all, and therefore we draw conclusions ah , the russians use eh, in addition to eh

general means of protection and are quite primitive , but they are already outdated, which are not effective enough how at one time they placed a barge with triangular balls near the crimean bridge, and it probably works against old types of missiles, but when the missile is on its own , it combines several guidance systems that can compensate for each other and replace each other in depending on the means that oppose them, well, it is not quite effective, but it only demonstrates that the russians are scared, they are really scared because , well, if the crimean bridge does not work, their entire group of troops and in the metrokovo south, well, i will say that it is so open doomed, but it seems that while the bridge is functioning, that is, the railway part of it somehow works poorly, after all, we do not forget

that only one track is working there, and that highway is also only one , but the question arises. about their capabilities specifically in terms of transportation and logistics well, after all, it’s very difficult, and on the other hand, who said that in general, uh, he will really work in the future, because well, and any any night or any day some incident may happen that will completely a-a-put a cross on the functioning of the crimean bridge well, it's time to connect with the cruiser moscow and don't be in pain, thank you very much for joining in. this was oleksandr kovalenko , a military-political observer of the information resistance group and we continue to strengthen the borders of ukraine to drones

, join the gathering of the chevron border guard who bring victory closer, we do not notice them until we get sick, but they are the first to whom we turn for help , guardian angels and who selflessly work in the rear and at the front under rocket fire and in in the hottest spots, saving our most precious health and life. thank you very much. now we will talk about preventing corruption in the ministry of defense with the representative of the public anti-corruption council at this department, anastasia shubu, which is our studio today, ms. anastasia, good

evening, good evening. the council was created in april this year, after the scandal with eggs for 17 hryvnias in the procurement of the ministry of defense during its work , what results can you report on ? certain processes that we are working on, for example, making changes to the current procurement system, so it is too early to talk about the results, because certain processes require a rather in-depth analysis and quite a... let's say so often, they are capacious by their nature. and we are the process, we will see the results while the procurement procedures will take place according to transparent and understandable rules for all participants and for all suppliers, and in fact when we talk about p17 eggs, we are not talking about

17 eggs, we are talking about the imperfection of the system today, literally at a meeting with the minister, he was gathering today, a meeting was held with the anti-corruption council , and we talked about what changes need to be made so that , let's say, such public discussions do not arise a-a but again, it is necessary to clarify to explain and report why the procurement system looks exactly like this and not otherwise, we hope that all our work and recommendations that we have given to the minister regarding changes to the procurement system will be positively received and will form the basis of the procedures that are now are being worked on in the ceiling procurement agency, but just while all these processes are being worked on, are they being improved , is there a risk that at this moment there is still an opportunity to buy conventional eggs for uah 17

, luckily, luckily, now all tenders are displayed on the back-end procurement window the ministry of economy, together with the ministry of defense, worked out this entire procedure, and from may to may, a collegial body was created under the ministry of defense that deals with procurement issues. they are preparing tender documentation, which then it is transparent and any supplier that meets the qualification requirements of this tender documentation can participate in the bidding and receive a state contract . the ministry of defense declares its current zero tolerance for corruption . at the same time, we see certain scandals still arise with the purchase of uniforms, then the ministry of defense says that it is not involved in these signed contracts. so you, as a person who makes sure that there is no corruption in the ministry of defense, confirm that the approach has changed ah, and not that he has changed

, he is just more likely to voice this in society. in fact, when we arrived, i did not see that there were any changes. during this time, for the better , for example, i would like to say that this position was clear and clearly articulated at the very the beginning of the creation of the anti-corruption council and it was really the idea of ​​the minister to create an anti-corruption council so that we, as members of the public, could exercise some public control over the processes taking place in the ministry. to say that the anti-corruption department was completely reformatted, the anti-corruption department is now a department, we are in constant communication with representatives of this department, we are also working together , developing a plan for anti-corruption measures, we analyze anti-corruption risks and corruption risks that may arise in the

procurement process as well in other spheres of e-e activity of the ministry of defense under the ministry of defense, a defense procurement agency has started working. in fact, the state of ukraine will and already purchases weapons from certain public organizations, for example, the anti-corruption center has comments on the work of this structure because it is not clear what safeguards against corruption there are when one body is actually responsible for spending a huge part of the budget, it is not the weapons, but how do you evaluate the work of this institutions well, first of all, it has not yet been fully launched, er, it has only now been finalized, somehow, both agencies are reaching the finish line , both agencies, such as power procurement, and from er, defense, and this is the first thing i wanted to say secondly, that is, again, it is too early to judge the results

. and secondly, what i would like to say is that the ministry as a body that forms policy and should not purchase anything is what was done before. those who are supposed to deal with that is some kind of e-e service that will implement state policy in the field of e-e procurements and defense procurements and rear procurements, this is normal world practice. that is, it is not the know-how of ukraine, it is not the know-how of different people, it is hmm, absolutely normal generally accepted practice is the formation of policy, the central body of the executive power is engaged in the implementation of a separate service, and this applies to other spheres, it is absolutely normal. and now they will, uh , purchase on their own, and the responsibility will be borne by a specific person, not

an impersonal collegial body, and regarding anti-corruption safeguards, today we also raised the issue before minister, this is a matter of creating a good council, and we would like to see representatives of nato member countries there, and the minister today confirmed what will happen with each the agency has created a supervisory board, of course, this will not happen tomorrow, but it will definitely happen , and the head of the competition will be appointed again, when the agencies will start their normal activities the only thing about the defense procurement agency is the only thing, let's say so, my remark is that there is an idea, i see corruption risks , it is that the decision of the cabinet of ministers determined that the agency receives 2.75% of foreign defense

contracts, these are huge sums, in fact that's why that foreign international foreign contracts for the purchase of arms are already talking about hundreds of millions, maybe billions, and maybe even billions. so, yes, but here we must take into account the fact that all these funds will be accumulated. well, let's say so. these funds are earmarked funds, that is, if someone saw in the cabinet resolution that only the salaries of the agency's employees are written there , then this is a myth, because the direction is clearly defined in the resolution, where these funds will go, these funds can be directed to a-a and including e-e payment for logistics services, we understand that weapons are not supplied through the teleportal a-a and that the delivery and delivery of weapons and ammunition is quite expensive. it is also expensive to service bank letters of credit and it is also

the purchase of capital assets a-a how do we know the budget process this is how it is arranged that what budget funds let's say for budget institutions, in the best case, they arrive there in march, april, so thanks to this uh , such a reserve fund in the agency, they will be able to purchase these weapons there, armaments , ammunition, conclude contracts not tying to the budget period, since we are currently engaged in full-scale hostilities, we do not have time for the state budget to be filled with money, and we need to purchase weapons here and now and in unlimited quantities. i think that everyone understands this and these are obvious things when you expect that the agency for defense procurement will work at full capacity and the agency for dining rooms will simply work for the ceiling agency. i know that the minister also announced today

that there are ideas for it to work already this autumn, by this time they have all the procedures and legal acts regulating this activity of the defense procurement agency have been worked out. i think that it will also be fully operational . this fall, by the way , an order was recently issued that the defense procurement agency will be, let's say, the sole executor. well i am not the only one in the resolution of this, but there is no such thing in the order, but i assume that the agency will be the executor of all orders that are transferred by the ministry of defense, that is, what i mean is that the general staff forms the need and transfers it to the ministry of defense.

of defense, as the manager of budget funds, the order is transferred to the agency and they carry out these orders a-a and exactly the same, the thing is that the agency will not carry out the acceptance of these er funds er, it will be carried out by the management of forces logistics, which will make it impossible for this corruption component to be made when the order and execution of the contract are done by the same hands. that is , it is decentralized. that this is also one of such good anti-corruption safeguards and it will avoid these risks is another important topic that you raised this electronic declaration for military personnel so now it is about the fact that the declaration of assets of everyone on budget funds should be restored, in fact, what risks do you see in the restoration of declaration for military personnel and how to distinguish here , relatively speaking, the head of

the military commissary recruitment center and the combat officer, and everything is very simple we actually see very big risks and we, as an anti-corruption council, addressed an official letter with official caveat proposals to the committee a-ah hmm we were informed that, as it were, all our comments taken into account but to be honest, i have information that this is not the case, and the final version for the time being is between the first and second reading, it still does not reflect the position that we voiced, and the first is how to technically ensure it and how to control this process. because the law and draft law contain certain definitions that do not have their own normative basis, for example , a zone of active hostilities

. what is a zone of active hostilities and hostilities? actions or inactive hostilities, that is, this is not an incomprehensible interpretation . it will, let's say, not comply with these provisions, because no one will be able to know how and at what moment he needs to declare. if earlier we had provisions in this regard of the draft law that m.m. officers from major and above, now i have information that in general all military personnel will be declared after the end of the special period. well, this is nonsense in general. okay , now it seems that the option is being considered that they will be declared after the end martial law, everything that arises, a lot of questions. taking into account the fact that some military personnel may have destroyed property or some other nuances, that is, it is definitely necessary

to follow it. thank you for joining us today. and a graduate strengthen the borders of ukraine to drones , join the gathering of border guards , chevrons that bring victory closer, the path of the ukrainian people is the path of centuries-old struggle, the struggle for independence, sovereignty and our future, when the enemy destroys our cities, encroaches on the lives and safety of our citizens, our relatives and loved ones. we stand as an insurmountable

barrier and a soluble force of struggle that destroys the enemy and wins victory. number of people died among the residents of this building. my admission was a horror that opened the eyes of the world to the true face of the russian world . the main industrialized wolf was moving. this is the way out. he shot in the back just like that, the first step to a fair punishment. this is what they kept silent about. what do the relatives of the murdered citizens of buchan most want? documentary project of tsn journalist and lykhotyanivska street yablunska street on sunday in marathon, the only news at 10:15 pm. more

than the total revenues of the budget before a full-scale invasion but whether this money is enough, we will talk about it with the head of the parliamentary budget committee roksolana podlasa p roksolana i congratulate you good afternoon, what is the current state of the budget and what are the results of its implementation for seven months this year, the situation without a budget remains difficult for 7 months, you know there were already news that the budget deficit amounted to about uah 500-84 billion, this is unprecedented for ukraine, the amount is a record and every month this record increases, every second hryvnia is spent today and is used today for defense needs , and we must understand that if there was no international aid today, we would not be

able to cope with our social expenses our salaries in the budget sphere, and for example for doctors and teachers, that is why a large part of state budget revenues , almost 49% today, are grants and loans provided to us by international governments or international partners such as the international monetary fund, the world bank, the water bank for reconstruction and development and others, of course that security and defense are now a key item of expenditure from the budget and they have already been increased, so the verkhovna rada has already increased the amount that goes specifically to the financing of the defense forces , and according to your estimates, there will be more this year the need to revise the budget specifically in the defense expenditure article. yes, i think that we will have a very tense budgetary autumn , because you know that by september 15, the government must

submit the draft budget for 2024 to the verkhovna rada. but at the same time in september and in the first half of october, we we will deal with the draft law on amendments to the budget for the 23rd year in terms of increasing spending on defense needs, and we will again talk about a very significant amount of several hundred billion hryvnias, and where to get these several hundred billion hryvnias they will be redirected from some other items of the budget. unfortunately, we don't have that many. we don't have any budget items from which you can simply take and redirect 100 billion uah or 200 billion uah because all budget programs have undergone a major reduction that at the beginning of the full-scale invasion and they we continue to reduce them and the expenses on them , that is why we will most likely put these expenses on the public debt because we have no

other way out, you have already mentioned the budget of 20-24 , which is being prepared and should already be the first in october the reading is so, it seems to him that roughly you expect to see from the government what percentage of spending there will be on defense we already know in fact that the budget of the 24th year will be very similar to the budget of 2023 , the main item of spending there will be defense for sure no less than laid down in this year, you said about 2 billion hryvnias, but this is taking into account international aid and the aid that comes to us in the form of armaments, expenditures from the state budget, and the need for defense amounted to 1.6 trillion in 2023. in the 24th year, we will pledge an amount that will not

less than 1.6 trillion , maybe even more, but here it is necessary to understand that we cannot spend on defense needs . we can borrow on the domestic market when we deploy the military. therefore, we have to start from that. let's see how much it will be in the 23rd year . defense, but at the same time we understand that we will also need to look for resources from the outside and not less than 42 billion dollars . and ending with the teacher's salary, are
