[000:00:00;00] at 16 well, according to the data of the air force, it will not be this year, as these defense lines were then, and whether the armed forces of ukraine have something to break through in order to move forward, engineering support for combat operations, that is, sappers , engineering means of demining and artillery . that is, it is currently in the armed forces of ukraine and they use it successfully, if we didn't have this, we wouldn't have achieved success in those areas where we already have access to the first line of defense and where, in principle , we are even approaching the second line of defense , and this is thanks to that that we have understood thank you thank you very much for this inclusion . thank you for your analysis. mykola salamakha, a military expert, a guest of our broadcast, we talked about the situation at the front and the

hottest directions that are currently on the front lines. in particular, we will talk about such topics . the washington post published evidence of the agreement concluded by russia and iran, according to the document, by the summer of 2025, the kremlin plans to create 6,000 drones for bombing ukrainian cities or will it be possible in russia to realize this ? the so-called court of the so-called dpr sentenced the captives of azov to 24 years imprisonment. broadcasts , be sure to share this video with your friends. if you liked it, subscribe to radio svoboda's youtube channel. if you haven't done so yet , write in the comments where you think

the drones that attacked russia were aimed today. the capital in occupied donetsk, the so-called court sentenced the captured fighters azov pavlo artemenko and anton romanyukun to 24 years in prison, the russian military prosecutor's office informed about this, the prisoners will be held in a strict regime colony, they are accused of allegedly shelling residential buildings in mariupol with a mortar during the retreat from the city at the end of february at the beginning of march 2022, the russian prosecutor's office writes that five houses were allegedly destroyed as a result of this, in addition, the russian investigative committee reported on the so-called conviction in donetsk. two more ukrainian military marines, yevhenii avhnenka and volodymyr facelevich, were imprisoned for up to 22 years. they were accused of allegedly killing civilians. meanwhile , the so-called court hearings are ongoing in russian rostov-on-don. these are 22 ukrainian prisoners of war, members of the azov brigade. they were captured in may of last year in they are accused of terrorism in russia , according to journalists, among the accused defenders of mariupol who moved to azov

, there were eight women, they worked as cooks for ukrainian military prisoners. to sentence ukrainian human rights defenders to terms ranging from 15 years to life imprisonment, including human rights defender head of the center for civil liberties and laureate of the nobel peace prize oleksandra matviychuk, on our broadcast she calls these so-called courts a war crime, she claims that russia violates international humanitarian law maryana homerika press secretary and co-founder of the association of the families of azov steel defenders is already on our air i greet you good morning thank you for taking the time to join in russian captivity continue to be in the mariupol garrison these same azov fighters of other divisions, what number of people are we talking about, as of now, 100, at least what is known about your associations ? well, from what we know, in general, everyone knows that these are defenders from australia. almost 2,000 people, and of them azov fighters, that is 700 people, they are

already in captivity 16 months ago, the 16th was the number if we are talking about contact with the azov residents, is there at least some contact, when was the last one ? we are aware of the connection, there is no information at all, we will receive information about the prisoners when some exchanges take place and it is possible to return the guys who were there in captivity and they can tell you some information about those whom you did not see , who they sat with, maybe they were at some joint interrogations and so on, but since the last exchange of all captured azov defenders was in may , that is, exactly three months ago, that is, for the last 3 months, there is no information at all about international organizations, well, at the moment, they for 15 months now, it has not been possible to get access to the residence of our prisoners of war, that is

, no assistance, no help , no communication from them at the moment, because as they say, russia does not allow them to go there to the place of imprisonment, nice, you already mentioned the lists on the exchange, and usually these lists. maybe in those that are being prepared, in those that have been, how often do the names of the defenders of mariupol appear there , well, this is more a question for the coordination headquarters in general. well, in our opinion, as in the opinion of a public organization, not often. unfortunately, we we understand that there are certain, well, certain reasons for this, so they don't want to change at all, they don't want to change defenders azovstali, and as i already said, uh, i'll repeat again that, unfortunately , the extreme exchange in general was as much as three months ago , that is, for three months, they heard from me, and there was no news families are waiting for exchanges and we really hope that soon there will be at least some exchanges, they happen at all , well, it is extremely rare that there are exchanges of 2.5 people, that is, about some large-scale things there every month, which is even more often

, we do not talk about it at all. unfortunately, it is still very important moment you yourself said that it is possible to get information from those prisoners who were released and returned to the territory of ukraine, and that they tell what kind of treatment they are in captivity and how much worse it is than other ukrainian prisoners of war who are not representatives. for example, azov and e- of other formations, there are simply military personnel of separate brigades, what do those who returned say , how is this attitude expressed, well , interviews are constantly being released, how do we see the boys and girls who returned from captivity where they say that the occupiers generally lead them to moral and physical torture, that is, they constantly beat out all shows under torture with very severe torture that people cannot physically withstand, but recently there was a story. i think everyone has read about the fact that a prisoner was beaten with a chair so that the chair broke, well, that is there are many, many such stories. unfortunately , it is difficult for me to say how other prisoners are treated, because our organization only takes care

of defenders from australia, and i cannot compare because there is no information about others units regarding the events of the deer at what stage is this story now in the plan of the investigation in the plan of drawing conclusions, or any conclusions from international organizations, maybe what are you receiving or this topic still, little by little , it is starting to be forgotten and only the families of the defenders are somehow trying to keep it under control for a month ago, we had the anniversary of the terrorist attack in olenivka, our organization organized a large-scale flash mob, the ray of memory , which was attended by several thousand people, who lit the rays of memory in honor of more than 50 victims of this terrorist attack. that is, people remember, but of course, in order to remember even more , it is necessary to constantly remind us what we are doing in relation to the investigation of international organizations, as i said , the problem is that they are not allowed not only to the place of receipt and, at the moment, to the place of the commission of this terrorist attack

the colony of volyn residents also do not allow them since the last time we know that in january of this year the international committee of the red cross suspended the investigation of this incident and our organization appealed to the parliamentarians lithuanian seimas to sign a collective appeal to the ukrainian communist party of ukraine and the un to resume the investigation , so far the signatures have been collected, we are waiting for the distribution to be resumed, how soon will they be restored? an important point is simply being in captivity - this is one story, a completely different story when the so-called russian justice, the so -called justice of the so-called e-e dnr tries to deliver its verdicts in cases, blaming the azovians for some reason, how many such criminal cases are there now which ones, in particular, which ones do you keep under control, and how do you generally help those representatives of azov who have already been subjected to

the so-called conditional justice of the dpr. that is, it is possible to somehow influence this process. is this also a story that is not reinforced by international organizations ? they see our organization in principle, what i see is society, there have been four public courts in the last two months, as far as i remember, where it was said exactly who is being tried, how many people are being tried, and so on, how many cases are there, it's hard to even think about it what we don't know. because, as i said, all the evidence used in these courts is obtained by torture. that is, in general, such a case can be for each of the two thousand defenders , and from australia, in fact , there is no information for sure who will be tried next. we also do not know the families either. they don't inform you that your defender will be tried there , that is, the boys and girls who are tried there do not have the right to defend them, it's just that it's unclear whether they have any lawyers there and so on

, international organizations to what extent did it affect this examination process, there is no information that representatives of any international human rights organizations were there, there is no such situation, thank you, thank you for enabling maryana khameryka, press secretary and co-founder of the association of families of defenders of azov steel, we talked about the so-called pelvic vessels, in particular in the so-called dpr and also about how many more representatives of azov they are in russian captivity in russia, they want to increase the production of drones in order to attack ukrainian cities with them with the help of iran there plan to produce about 6,000 attack drones by the summer of 2025, the american edition of your tonposta writes about this with reference to the leak of documents handed over by an employee of the drone production plant , who seems to oppose the russian-ukrainian war , the production line will be built 24 hours a day , journalists of valabuzi write that in the republic of tatarstan, washington journalists claim that

russian engineers are trying to improve iran's outdated technologies in order to produce uavs on a larger scale and bigger with bigger quality control, and iran, in turn, agreed to provide moscow with project documentation for the shahed-type drone, electronic components for their production, and to train russian personnel. researchers at the washington institute for science and international security, at the request of the washington post, analyzed the documents. they believe that russia is behind schedule by at least a month and lacks components necessary for the creation of sharket 136, in particular, and due to sanctions, russia also feels the lack of personnel in the watermelon, earlier in iran and russia , they repeatedly denied information about delivery of drones only once the minister of foreign affairs admitted that his country supplied russia with kamikaze drones, but allegedly in a limited number and before the start of a full-scale invasion, meanwhile, the missiles with which russia fired at the territory of ukraine the day before were made this year by foreign microcircuits, and this was reported by the chairman

of the president andriy yarmak. about missiles of the has-101 type, according to him, the party collects all information and cooperates with partners , in particular, foreign governments work with manufacturers and suppliers of ics. yarmak writes that despite the introduction of restrictions, sanctions must be strengthened so that russia cannot obtain critical components and manufacture missiles oleksandr rubin, director of the kyiv research institute of forensic examinations, joins our broadcast. i congratulate you. good day, mr. oleksandr . thank you for finding the opportunity to join us. there is actually something to talk about. there are many conclusions of your examinations, so what are your institution's conclusions? and my first question will be : what are the dangerous and prohibited weapons of the russian federation, the russian army

has been used on the territory of ukraine since the time of the large-scale war, which in particular was managed to be investigated by your institute by conducting examinations, er, well, in order to explain to everyone what our institute does, i want to say that from the beginning of armed aggression, that is , from february 24, the institute was assigned functions in the first place precisely and carrying out experts regarding the weapons that were used directly by the armed forces of the russian federation. so we conducted prostheses on all types of weapons , weapons that were directly used by the military of the russian federation, these are artillery weapons and mines, e-e, mortars, and mines that e-e were inserted into mines, e-e, explosive barriers, these are rockets, flamethrowers, and all all equipment, cruise missiles, other rocket artillery, rocket artillery weapons that were used by e-e russian troops before

we carried out examinations on all cases, went to almost all the places where these crimes were committed, and therefore we have all the information, we have already conducted a lot of examinations, because we have appointed more than 30 thousand exporters that concern about 14,000 weapons directly, we have already done this not only for weapons, but also for real estate or movable property that was disabled, but for all types of weapons, which are primarily dangerous and prohibited, that were used russian army, we conducted examinations, you can share your experience there, but we would like to, in fact, we will not have much time . i understand that you worked with this material and you have a lot of information, but the audience needs to explain in simple language the most important thing , which prohibited weapon, which prohibited weapon the russian federation used on the territory of ukraine, and actually what you have already managed to research, if you can briefly, there is the type , perhaps, the weapon, the ammunition, which we

launched, uh, they used in the first place, if we remember with you gostomel buchu irpin, this is uh, the use of artillery ammunition, tornado with cassettes and ammunition, there are a lot of them borodyans found found in irpin this is a prohibited weapon, also a cassette that was used, you know, in other places and in mariupol kramatorsk and in other places flamethrowers, you and i have finished the examination that concerns the reindeer, where it was used according to our eh according to the conclusions of our experts has long been prohibited by the relevant conventions - it is against

anti-personnel mines, mines of a different purpose, and it was all used directly by the russian troops , we have studied them all. court of international institutions, how does this communication with the international community take place? we have all the signed agreements and orders of the international criminal court for a long time. we communicate with them in constant constant contact . of ukraine work on the territory of our institute. we conduct examinations together. they are common with us. also, our institute is accredited in the european garden of forensic expert environments, and therefore the visit to us is based on the results of our conclusions.

they should be taken care of by all the courts of european countries and law enforcement agencies, the results are already ours, they are already in the international criminal court. suitable for everyone, i mean the procedure for submitting e-e oleksandr, i will interrupt you, but this is not within the limits of any disrespect, but simply because we do not have much time, that is the information you gave, the results that are your experiments institute, is it enough for that, if you can comment on it, that the russian military leadership, which gave orders to use this weapon in particular, should be prosecuted if e. there the tribunal will make a positive decision in terms of prosecution, and also we conduct not only examinations of e-e weapons e-e which is used by us, the only unit that conducts military examinations that precisely determines uh who gave the instructions who gave the orders who made the decisions about either the bombing or

the use of these weapons i think that we have well what do you say? we already have a ready-made practice according to the results of our examinations that we provided . do you remember march 17? the court has already made a decision on the shooting down of a youth boeing from the three-seven flight on mars. 752 subscriber 737 who flew on the kyiv-tehran flight, that is, we even already have positive decisions of other courts, including the international criminal court, i reported that we are admitted there and i think there will be no problems at all, this evidence is absolutely enough we will decipher the black boxes, we know where they took off from. who gave the order from which vehicle with the number the shots were fired and who was the commander there and who provided answers

to the orders of all the examinations already at the stage of referral to the international criminal court, that is, for each individual case that you process is the name given, you know who gave this order and you actually do not transfer this data to international organizations, but when conducting an examination. for example, there are rockets , ulanka drones, which remain impresses you as experts when you examine them, well. for example, in one of the interviews , i think i read about the fact that the russian forces try to mark so that it is not clear where this or that weapon is manufactured , so what else impresses you about these experts when you are researching these weapons, they are cutting off the markings not only so that we do not see at which factories they are produced . we already know that they are hiding it so that we cannot, first of all, identify the means from where they flew and which route uh-uh where they were released on which party, when and what well, we have enough equipment, in principle we can see it all, we can say that recently missiles

of the may-june 2023 release have been arriving at us, that is, they are already directly launched from the conveyor, the stocks are already running out, it is very surprising that there is no longer an opportunity they probably buy some scarce blocks from them that are used purely for rockets, and they solder them in manual mode, we can already see that this is not, er, not an assembly, er , some kind of conveyor, it is in manual mode, that is, they can no longer produce them in that quantity as two of them made them, the fact that they have new weapons, we see e-e schemes and other things are foreign, that is, they are still somehow about during ukraine, not so much time, which countries, well, iranian drones, we know this is public information from which others

ukrainians, components, all breeds that consist of uh, uh, part of the iranian one, we saw them there in a lot of countries, we often explored year, and schemes mean starting from the blue staff of america and others, we have even reached great britain, this is precisely march and april of the 23rd year, that is , particles from these countries were also in this weapon. thank you very much, mr. oleksandr, for this inclusion . of the research institute of forensic expertise, the guest of our broadcast, well , and finally, it is important. the same topic, because ukrainian stand-up is developing in ukraine and in ukrainian stand-up, the comic of the screenwriter , the radio host, anton tymoshenko, jokes about politics, society and life during the great war, after the start of the full-scale invasion, the comedian recorded a performance in english for a foreign audience in which he talked about the war in ukraine, after which

he was interviewed by the american host of the late night show 9 letterman, so tymoshenko got into the same show on netflix with ukrainian president volodymyr zelensky anton actively collects money for the needs of the armed forces of ukraine and is now preparing for a tour of ukraine, my colleague katya nekrecha talked with a comedian about the war , about the mood and society of donat and informational silence in social networks fragment let's listen now how are you feeling and in general what is your condition right now the question counts as well as the feeling i'm just like that and it's wonderful we have a lot well listen which ones already have this is very important because ah you can observe here and public people and it seems that at peak peak peak and career development there, but still in the morning, explosions, arrivals and anxiety, and it does something like that to the mood, of course, hmm , again, there are motivations, demotivations, but now you are in exactly what state, tired, i don't know, from

the schedule, tired from that he didn't sleep i didn’t sleep because of anxiety, but in fact i feel more comfortable in lviv, because kyiv is associated with constant work that surrounds you everywhere in kyiv, olifa comes to give a performance or two and have some free time, and because of this i feel that i am not in a working environment maybe i should rest a little more, let's call my mood restrained positive i like this characteristic restrained positive mood because soon the tour is worried that everything will turn out well to finish the whole instrument as i want funny and clever we will see what will come out of all this restraint is positive, slight excitement before the tour, this is my mood , the material is ready, how many percent is it for , this is my favorite question, i am never 100% ready. and even when they already recorded such, well, he recorded his percentages in the 80th, then we understand what could have been done better , well, now i have exactly about one and a half hours

of text, approximately, i know that i can start funny and end funny, there will already be a good stand-up inside i would like a lot of opinions with jokes, but not so dense i want it to be funny to people, but i want to talk about some problematic things that worry you. i always try to find some kind of balance so that people don't suffocate with the material. it's not like that kind of thing . it's just that before. back people partially and twist because someone is in the process of volunteering work and someone is already like that well , normal lives in itself, we buy wheelbarrows , apartments, we shoot good stories and everything hangs out on me, that's why i want well, at least some kind of balance to find so that everyone understands that war is not wanted for the people there and so on, to teach them how to live during the war, but just to show that, well, as always, i always try to do some extreme things

, to get down to some center, to reach the material, so let's see what it should be like in your opinion, this balance is enough for you to buy a wheelbarrow. i'm very glad i don't show it. it's so bad for me because of the war. you still bought a wheelbarrow . i don't have it. well, please, just informational silence, informational tesha should be on such a front, and our economic front they say the economic front is informational what is probably on anti too i am glad you are there you have a good life you can go to the beach and all that we don't show it is done green circles are all for friends you don't need to show it here photos from the beach all friends who let's hang out on the beach. goodbye, no, you're serious now. well, i'm going to ramble a little. i didn't subscribe to all my direct friends , but i subscribed to some because there should be some type. well, you know, some kind of gradation. and i could even write such jokes, too. so that instead of facebook or instagram, they often blur on photos of some, you know, victims of war there or some kind of destruction , like this is

harm falconten, for me it is well, we are already used to it did you see the sea behind him, the bison, so that you could calmly continue to work with them, understand that we are all, well, about everything, everyone should have this common war and there should be a common work, well , everyone has a certain mood and you know, attention to this work is common, because when you see which many people are for you fall out of it, and so motivation is hard to find every day, which someone is not looking for, or maybe he is, on the contrary, looking to donate millions of dollars shorter than hryvnias, but it does not show, but simply shows his life there, which is good, this is also wrong , it is necessary to show or convey that it should be this position directly that charity doesn't want to shine that i'm charitable because it's kind of wrong no, it directly shows all the hryvnias , but you give because people have to see that it 's a routine and not some incredible thing you had in your shower for 12 today there are 1,000 hryvnias no no, you have to do something every day. maybe, well, society mostly came

to that because, anyway, i'm from interviews from all the stories of public and non-public people. it has to break down somehow. and now, maybe for a year and a half, we have been living in such a reality that it will not all end in 2-3 famous weeks and that it will be for a long time and if it is already for a long time, to be honest, this is the best mood because when we did not settle for some kind of victory there after a year, it seems like a year for us, when there is an eternal war , don't spoil this mood in order to invite an interview with a comedian who tells us that there is an eternal war, let's do it, but listen, it's such an approach as if it's everyday life, so there is such a routine, we don't plan in advance, but we still plan and there should be some kind of rest before getting stuck, of course. so this is a feeling of guilt, it can be, it can have a negative effect, it can be positive, negative , because of the feeling of a problem, for god’s sake, i

just won’t do anything because i’m stupid it doesn't work. i'm all like well, in short, you're just sprawled out on the sofa. it started as a ghost . it doesn't help you. when you come back, you think, damn, you have to do something more to help, because i had to do something. you're doing something. it's like a positive aspect. that's why we have to try to overcome these negative feelings of ours. it's easy to choose a certain one well, it's very difficult, it's very difficult and i don't always succeed, it's also obvious that i also make some mistakes and even more so in stand-up, you have to make people laugh and at the same time not be rude as a comedian, where all the jokes about the russians are stupid haha ​​well, it’s never funny anymore, like this concept is shorter pieces and at the same time, some kind of search for some new topics, some faces to try new ones, that’s why they are called on the verge of novesolnik because almost any jokes if you take the military topics or socio-political, now it's getting to the limit, because you just have to joke. well, i'm bored. if i'm honest, i want something that worries me more, and there you have to directly find a line and not cross it. well, everyone has their own experience of this, someone has lost a lot

someone lost a little because of this war, so yes, finding a balance is just right. well, the most difficult thing, but in this case. we thank you for your activity in the broadcast in the chat for the broadcast . it is important for us to hear your thoughts in order for us to understand whether the topics we raise are important and interesting to you. by the way, the full version of this interview will soon appear on radio svoboda 's youtube channels and on our website. where you can also join and where we can become friends with you is the svoboda ranok project, our whole team wishes you a peaceful weekend as much as possible in the conditions of a large-scale war, we will meet with you on monday traditionally at 9:00 a.m. thank you to the viewers of radio svoboda youtube and to the viewers of the espresso tv channel
