addresses, they were charged with possession of forged documents with unlawful intent, among these documents passports, identity cards and other documents of nine countries, britain, bulgaria , france, italy, spain, croatia, slovenia, greece and the czech republic , the suspects have not yet declared their guilt or innocence, the case will be heard by a court in london in january and this story is on the front pages of the british press today, so spies from the suburbs spies in the neighborhood some newspapers came out with such headlines so once again what is known in britain, three were arrested people who are suspected of espionage for russia were charged and it was a major investigation related to national security, a trick of suspected bulgarian citizens and, as they believe, they worked for the russian special service poltavani in espionage for russia, bulgarian citizens who lived in great britain for years among them is this woman katrin ivanova, she taught courses on british

values ​​for migrants who recently moved to ukraine in february of this year , detectives from the department of combating terrorism they took on the investigation of a case concerning a threat to national security, they searched an apartment in the north of london and in this guest house that played its norfolk , five people were detained and three were charged. there were policemen in civilian clothes, people all in black clothes and wearing masks, the order of russia, as indicated in his profile on social networks, had a business registered in russia . he was the owner of a company related to the interception of electronic messages and of signals viser jambozov and katrin ivanova lived as a couple, they lived in several houses in the suburbs of london, according to her neighbors , she gave them candy, the couple also founded a public organization that helped

bulgarians living in britain, they promoted their organization on social networks, the suspects are accused of keeping fake passports and documents certifying a person with illegal intentions found in them passports of nine countries, including great britain. the case against them will be considered here at the old baile court in london next year uk's counter-terrorist police are spending more and more time investigating espionage cases, especially in relation to russia , the 2018 poisoning case that tried to poison the last double agent and his daughter with a deadly nerve agent caused concern substances later a local resident of don't starges died from exposure to poison and in 2006 in london, former

russian intelligence officer oleksandr lytvynenko died from poison killed those who worked for russia and in general. this is a rather unusual case, especially considering what is known about the three suspects of espionage. as bbc correspondent daniel de simon says, people are unusually infrequently charged or arrested on suspicion of espionage, even less so in cases involving these three defendants, as well as two other people who were charged with espionage, were arrested . in february, under the state secrets act, the three were charged with forgery of identity documents but next month there will be a bail hearing for all five in a case of possible breaches of the state secrets act all three accused lived in

britain between about 14 and 10 years they lived in different flats in london and one of them in norfolk and worked, their neighbors knew that these people worked, they had profiles in linkedin and they promoted their organizations on the internet, and as i said, next month they all have to play pranks in front of the police during bail hearings for breaching the state secrets act, they were remanded in custody and will be charged with two counts of alleged forgery of identity documents later this year, and in january they will appear at the walt bailey central criminal court in london christopher steele former head of russia in mi-6 at british intelligence here's what he told the bbc about concerns in the british

intelligence community about russian espionage in in the recent past, there have been high-profile cases related to russian and intelligence operations in great britain, of course, the attempted assassination of sergei fiddler in 2018, and we know that russian military intelligence , foreign intelligence and security services were involved, is there anything to worry about british intelligence? i think that british intelligence has always worried about russian illegal operations, not least because they are very difficult to detect and usually involve actions that are risky and potentially lead to more serious consequences than just gathering information, so absolutely. i think that when you have the head of the russian state - a former kgb officer, there is a war in russia. there is little that can stop russia from getting the necessary information from the west, in particular, the united kingdom, which the russians have always considered as

a traditional enemy and of course it is one of of the staunchest supporters of ukraine in the war and given that background how closely did the intelligence services in great britain cooperate without the allies so we always work quite closely with the allies i think there were cases, some of them are publicly known, with an estonian official in nato, i think. and there was a case in germany recently where a german intelligence officer was apparently recruited by someone like an emigrant from russia. i think it is very common for development to share with allies and in general during these one and a half years of war there were various reports about alleged russian espionage in different countries, both separate investigations and rainbows of diplomats , so moldova expelled russian diplomats and embassy employees, while the change was written that supposedly on the roof of the russian embassy in chisinau there were antennas for eavesdropping earlier

, norway led russian diplomats on suspicion of espionage in ireland, the netherlands, austria, the czech republic, and belgium did the same . by the way, australia did not allow the russian embassy to be built near the parliament because of the risk of espionage, and we will talk more about russian espionage under during the war , military observer ivan stupak is in touch with us. therefore , western countries, especially those that help ukraine, need to be on guard all the time regarding the alleged russian spies. greetings from the studio. yes, of course, you are right, and this should have been done 5-6 years ago, or even 15 years ago, since the russian federation, after the destruction of the soviet union, did not stop espionage activity all over the globe. that is, this modus-operandi modus vyvendi way of thinking and way of acting both in the soviet union and in the russian federation , they built up spies, let's say there are classically two big types of spies, the first is those who travel with diplomatic passports, yes

they are under the roof or but and also on issues culture and economy, although in fact he is only interested in military and political issues, establishes connections with various people and collects information for local counter-intelligence - this is probably one of the simplest such unmasking signs, yes, of course, a person is interested if he will take actions that contradict status, then he will simply be deported from the country and that's all. he will not bear criminal responsibility because he has diplomatic immunity and another matter - these are illegals, yes, this is a special illegal agents who are infiltrated, for example, they work for russia, but use fake, stolen, lost passports from latin america, for example, countries in africa, north america , in order to be stimulated in other countries, you go there, it seems like a normal lifestyle , they run a small business, but they have a wide circle of acquaintances, they communicate, they invite various officers to their place on a visit, as it was in

one of the european countries, when he invited nato officers, they talked, arranged picnics and thus information that moscow resorts to of more risky methods of espionage after agents were suspended under diplomatic cover , for example, they use sleeper groups of unofficial agents, this is what the guardian believes. yes or there in belgium. they know the local conditions , they know the habits, they can travel civilly in european countries without causing suspicion, there will be some activity, i don’t know , a photo studio, for example, or some jewelry boutique or just the influence of youtubers, and this is a normal story, but they have the opportunity to meet, get information, or use it, for example, to move certain goods , they have no idea that they pick

up a package at point a, they take it to a point, they don’t meet people, they just conditionally put it in a cell hiding at the station and then someone takes it away, that is, their function is small but very important for the russian federation . the time of the war against ukraine, so look first of all. do the countries of europe or the collective west agree to further support ukraine in this war once ? let's say politically, the mastodons of geopolitics and big countries are dragging behind them and they are starting to work with those who have doubts, who do not want to help ukraine, and who are against ukraine, who

take a pro-russian position, these countries are interesting they are interested in the weapons. the planes will be placed directly in ukraine because the western countries, for example, know 100% about it and the reverse effect is here, for example, the head of foreign intelligence of britain, richard moore, recently spoke publicly and he publicly called on russians who disagree with putin's actions to cooperate and work for british intelligence, he actually said so, our doors are always open. such calls for development are 100% effective.

even a million percent, i will tell you such a phrase, it is there from the middle, from the middle ages, yes, a golden bell can wake up even a dead person in russian, which cannot be translated quickly, that is, russian whitewashers who aim to use their fortunes, who have earned it in russia but want to live with normal the civilized power that respects this rights there is the right of private property, so they always have the opportunity to work with development, which can then help. well, of course, at the expense of contributing to the victory of ukraine in the defeat of russia, then they can help, e. run to the territory of the west, give certain shows, it is possible to pay a certain fine to the budget, and please the rest of these things are spent in western countries, traveling, i don’t know, the central committee, not monaco , whatever thank you ivan stepah was on the air with us thank you and that’s all for today read more news on our website bbc.ua there

the main thing, as of the evening of wednesday, august 16 , footage of the liberation of the harvest and the offensive of the armed forces in the direction of bakhmut, what is happening on the eastern flank of the russian-ukrainian war, how will kupyansk be strengthened and does the kremlin really not have a strategy to return the lost positions of the territory in exchange for membership, lunato assumed that ukraine could refuse from certain regions in order to become a member of the alliance, but then they declared a mistake, or is there such a mistake by chance, and how popular are such sentiments among ukraine 's western partners? what is known about them? why did the security service of ukraine decide to take responsibility for incidents that had not

been commented on before ? the general staff reports and adds that the occupiers are trying to counterattack and heavy fighting continues, at the same time, the ministry of defense today officially confirmed the release of a video from the fighters of the 35th separate brigade of marines named after rear admiral mykhailo ostrogradskyi, which was harvested in donetsk region, and posted on the facebook page of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine, including the video footage from drones , as it is claimed, russian forces are leaving their positions in a panic, and the military of the armed forces are placing the ukrainian flag and the banner

of the unit near the local monument ukrainian marine units continue to successfully liberate settlements village after village, street after street, house after house, bradley infantry fighting vehicles from the united states have been taking an active part in the offensive of the armed forces of ukraine on the southern part of the front, in particular, in zaporizhzhia, where the vehicles were used during advancing in the blagodatny area. during the offensive, the equipment was repeatedly damaged from detonations on mines to hits from anti-tank missile systems, repairmen units say that at the end of july they evacuated eight dozen units of armored vehicles from the battlefield and they assure that the majority will return to the formation more in the report of roman pagulychanka i am the commander of the bradley fighting vehicle and the slash commander of the division

, that is, i worked both in bradley and worked with the infantry well and i was in a hurry and we went to the landings and went to the mini fields. it happened and so on, but again, well, it is impossible to say where is better and where is easier, because it is a complex complex of actions and a complex of means without which it is simply well it is impossible to win the war, the equipment is involved when we are sure that we can safely approach the place, for example, the landing of the landing force and or to the place where the equipment will be able to work safely in the positions of the enemy. well, if we have our bradley infantry fighting vehicle, someone comes over time

and it has one breakdown today. you already understand how to eliminate it and you understand there what can cause this breakdown and without a lost time, when we leave, we do an inspection of the car and after combat mission, and we arrive and declare that everything is normal, he says that the guys did it well, the panel lights up, they say what is being done, but he says that it does not tilt the guns at all , it shoots. since i flew to the cap e-e 10 meters away and the electronic equipment failed, i already went through two explosions on anti-tank mines. well , i was a little concussed, but thank god everything is fine , the first time there was a landing party inside, everyone is alive

and well, and the second time there was no landing party but there were medics, we were on our way to evacuate the boys, and it turned out to be short that they were blown up already wounded, and then we had to overload the second car and evacuate, one car was blown up, but we unfortunately did not take them away because the rope was completely broken and it was not possible to take it away, they were still there the enemy had a position there, and then they briefly shot it from a tank, which was already empty. well, if we already, i understand that we will not finish it, if we do not bring what is not a victim in 5 minutes, you understand

, he refuses, let's say show this control the tower, that is, the machine is not malfunctioning, when we find the reason, it is very difficult, we restore , let’s say , the area of ​​the system, that is, we climb inside. you see, you feel, you can stretch, drag and remove , rearrange, and in electrics, you understand. equipment, what is now being put to work is now being adjusted, well, as well as experience and knowledge and skills, that is, if now, in principle, such

big questions arise . baby, these drones are a unique development of the department and they are produced at one of the underground factories in ukraine , sbu head vasyl baby said in a comment to cnn, according to him , drones can carry a warhead from 450 to 850 kg actually the maximum warhead was used by the special services for the attack on the crimean bridge in july this year, and the smallest one was used to destroy the amphibious assault ship, but the nigors are good akas of the oil tanker cig, actually the shelling of the crimea takes place regularly , in particular, an explosion near the kerch bridge is reported by the russian authorities the federation blames ukraine for this or talks about the training. ukraine officially confirms its involvement only in some attacks serhii grabsky, a military expert and a

reserve colonel of the armed forces of ukraine, do not join to our broadcast p serhiy my greetings good evening good evening good evening and why do you think they decided to show the drones ? well, they admitted involvement in the attacks in the occupied crimea of ​​kyiv, why uh, in crimea and in kyiv , why did they admit this and why didn't they do it earlier how do you think? well, you know there is such a thing as an operative cover operation, including . that is, we do not know all the details of the operation , who was involved at which stages, eh, i do not exclude the eh possibility that our heroes were involved, underground and partisans who helped with clarification the situation, therefore, in order to ensure their safety, so that we would someday congratulate these heroes, such events are being held that are delayed in time, if you can say so, so it is absolutely clear to us. and i would say that even the message that they said a month ago

in my opinion, it is a little early, but the decision has been made, we have shown how we work, how we work, the enemy must understand that our revenge will be permanent. crimea actually has several incidents that still remain unnoticed by the special services. i mean with public statements. and how is the situation in crimea different from the situation with other occupied territories? well, you know . well, first of all, the special services do not comment on 100% of strikes and believe me, these lists are very, very long, therefore, in each specific case, a separate decision is made, and again, i want to emphasize this extremely important and heroic work of our underground and partisans in the occupied

territories, and therefore, believe me, there is not much it comes to the attention of our community for general information and the work that is being carried out will be filtered and i will repeat it again only when and in that case when there is no threat to the life and safety of our agents, then is this information announced in other cases, well, that it will be possible to write off wrong actions or handling of e-e incendiary substances with objects or neglect or negligence if you want and so on and so on, so the work is being done and i repeat again a lot - a lot information simply does not come to the surface and those lists that we sometimes see they do not always correspond to what is reported in prague , sir, we talked about the occupied territories , i cannot but ask you, but the day before, we heard

a statement from the head of the staff of the secretary general, nat, who admitted that ukraine can to become a member of the alliance in exchange for relinquishing part of its territory, although later it was called a mistake , there was a very violent reaction in society , we heard harsh statements from officials we will talk about it further from a political point of view but i want to ask you, from a military point of view, the potential return of ukraine's territory to nato could simplify or , let's say, speed up this process. control over all territories or or a-a, in principle , a different decision can be made, uh, but this decision requires the cessation of hostilities, i am asking for my own home well, let's be honest, and there is an example of the federal republic of germany, which was accepted into nato with the awareness
