[000:00:00;00] which cause quite significant problems with the syndrome, and i also want to say that recently you could see a video where our military shot down one of the enemy drones with a stick . also, in addition to this , as of yesterday , four enemy attacks were repulsed in the direction of bakhmut, the enemy is resorting to counterattacks, trying to storm our positions, but the well-built defenses are well-placed, our strong points are not give the enemy such an opportunity to break through, they will continue to use the tactics of so-called assaults using storm z groups and representatives of various private military companies, such as a-a e pvk veterans and tvk wolves, which were formed

due to former or even current a-a many more questions there is not much time, what is the situation in the area of ​​klyschivka there, the armed forces of ukraine are on the offensive in the defense, and how is the russian army conducting it, are there enough forces there to advance or hold the defense in the positions they have already taken, so what it is known in this context in the area of ​​the ticks that our troops continue the offensive operation however, ah, we maintain the personnel and take care of the life and health of our soldiers. this is the most important thing, that is why they resort to counterattacks, using also looking for weak points in our defense, however under the clear leadership of colonel-general oleksandr syrskyi and our e military commanders on the ground in the brigades, they are unable to do this and step by step e-e meter by meter

we are reclaiming our land in this direction perhaps you know, can you somehow tell the details of the ex-commander of the azov regiment and the deputy commander of the third assault brigade in the comments of the media maxim zhorin says that the russian army is transferring combat-ready units of equipment and artillery systems to the area of ​​the front , in particular to bakhmut. they either have a better position than the russian forces , or these areas are not so strategically important to them that they transfer them from there, which , after all, they bring people from the territory of the russian federation. look, it is possible talk about the fact that they are maneuvering the forces that are located in the combat zone as well. of course, they form various reserve corps and also transfer them to the eastern front. and we can say that they are also looking for weak points in our defense and it depends on where we spend as well as offensive actions , since their forces are their number. it does not play a role, since now in the latest war , the technological war is more dominated by the quality

, that is, the clarity of the use of artillery and reconnaissance , drones, etc., they specifically give there is little advantage over those weakly motivated military personnel a who are trying to uh, i apologize for those who are trying to attack our positions , the deputy minister of defense, the painter, also stated that the power of the russian federation will fall in the area of ​​bakhmut, she said that if you look at the map, it looks like a horseshoe, that is, they cannot, no to advance or withdraw, how does the power of the russian federation look in practice, what can they do to defend themselves to the end, to surrender, what was the goal of the armed forces of ukraine when this military operation was planned in this direction, well look, russia spent more than 100,000 of its er prisoners of its er soldiers on a-a maintenance and capture of bahmut, only er beaten and wounded, according to official data of our international partners

, the figure can really be significant, and now the loss of such the settlement is for them, well, if you can say so sacred, because it can lead to very sharp and geopolitical moments, that is, to some internal issues, and therefore they are trying with all the strength they have to get this place and, well, they have almost nothing such victorious moments have not happened recently, that is why they are even trying to sell it as a victory by holding back the bahmut, arguing that they are not holding back the ukrainian army, not the ukrainian armed forces and defense forces, but are fighting the entire nato bloc , which is actually far from the case. because our guys ukrainians , risking their lives and health, hold this front and resort to contour offensive panels for us literally a minute and up to 10 seconds 40 you have an

answer and what is the situation in kupyansk direction as of today, how threatening is the situation there, there were no advances on the part of the russian forces? maybe the armed forces of ukraine have strengthened what is known. and in the kupyan direction , the intensity of the fighting has now matured, but instead it has moved to neighboring directions , for example, near new horivka. intense fighting is going on there now, but instead of kupyansk , the shelling of kupyansk has decreased a little, and i would also like to note that in the limansk direction, the number of shelling by the enemy has also increased, and the enemy is using aviation there tactical army ftv drones. for example, as of yesterday, 514 artillery strikes from all types of artillery systems took place during the day and there were seven combat clashes. our servicemen destroyed 102 people from the enemy's personnel in that direction. thank you for this activation and for the analysis. to the eastern part of the armed forces

of ukraine, the guest of our broadcast, russian president putin, did not directly, but acknowledged the death of the head of the pvk wagner prigozhina a day after the events, he commented on the incident and spoke about prigozhin in the past tense , calling him a man of difficult fate and expressed his condolences to the families of the victims. and then when i asked him about it for a common cause like these last months. he was a talented person, a talented businessman, a businessman in the west, meanwhile, they believe that i am quoting, there is a high probability that evgeny prigozhin really died as a result of a plane crash in russia about this report new york timesis referring to the name of anonymous intelligence sources the wall street journal writes that the plane crashed as a result of language, at the same time land-air missiles were not used, journalists

refer to american intelligence, but the ukrainian side believes that to determine whether prigozhyn was really on board the plane should be thoroughly checked. this statement was made the day before by a representative of the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense andrii yusov, ukrainian president volodymyr zelenskyi commented on prigozhin's probable death in a plane crash when asked by a journalist about the impact his death would have on ukraine. he answered with sarcasm , you know when ukraine spoke and appealed to the countries of the world about planes, we didn't mean that, i'll tell you frankly well meant something completely different and we wanted support , although probably this is also in some sense the word will definitely help, first of all, we have nothing to do with this situation that's for sure i think everyone

realizes who is involved investigator the russian committee is currently investigating the plane crash, but no new details of the case have been announced yet. reuters, referring to chinese correspondents , reported that the bodies of the dead were taken to the regional forensic medical examination office. this is confirmed by the videos published by the agency. we will remind you that on the evening of august 23, it became known that a plane crashed in the tver region of the russian federation. which belongs to yevgeny prigozhin, russian aviation reported that the head of the pvk wagner was on the list of passengers, besides him, there was also dmytro, a henchman and co-founder of the mercenary company utkin was informed that the plane was flying from moscow and fell into the local population on the way to st. petersburg. later , the death of seven passengers from three members of the plane's crew was officially confirmed by telegram channels that are connected with the incident. they wrote that the plane was hit by a missile of russian forces against air defense, this topic we will discuss in more detail with our guest for ponomaryov , a russian political scientist, a member of the state duma of the russian federation, from the seventh to the 16th year, i

congratulate you good morning panel thank you for joining the broadcast well, in essence, putin confirmed the death of the head of wagner, yevgeny prigozhin, if you look at the whole face with which he did it, and you know putin better than many of our viewers. what did you see in this expression on his face? what can you say about his attitude to this event? and we will all discuss it later nuances around this topic well, i thought, who thinks that it was a surprise for putin and that he was not the customer of this and even when he mentioned prigozhyn, he ordered about the mistakes that were once there in the past, but he did not mention what happened in june and i i think that this is not accidental, because i believe that

prigozhyn did not drink from putin's trust and he remained as a person from his entourage and he followed his orders in the last days, in the last months, and that is why i think that for putin it is enough it’s sad that my version was that it was carried out by mr. shoigu. because no one could launch a missile during the air defense in the tver region. if it was putin, i think he would have used some kind of bomb in the plane or just there. there could be an engine error, er, it was done by its final version but without the agreement of the russian president. i believe that yes, i believe that the russian president is now losing control over his environment and at first you are playing

nice against shoigu. well, that is, putin knew about it, but he could not control it. and now this is what the gentleman is doing. what is he against? well, from a conceptual point of view, from a gangster's point of view, what can he do? them that there might be explosives on board plane and there was an explosion from the inside. what do you think of this version? well, i think that it is very unlikely. i think that these are russian players . up and now they are spreading from the kremlin ah, because if we look carefully at the photo, i can already see photos of this wing .

on which it is very clearly visible that there is a ppu missile marked there and there are witnesses who said that there were two claps before the plane fell, and i believe that these were sounds from the launch of missiles. tell me please, regarding another issue, which versions are put forward by one from those close to the kremlin, russian journalists, bloggers, propagandists, as they call him in ukraine, solovyov declares that, well, at least he suggests that it is possible . ukrainian forces were not involved here, there is a plutonium in the prize between the minister of justice and the head of the ukrainian sbu, but still what line will the russian propaganda media, the state media, build now in order to provide this information to ordinary russians ? i mean the line of what happened to m.

to consider a lot of different versions uh, so that by the time the main uh appears, to confuse everyone finally uh, and so that no one remembers what happened uh , then i think there will be some kind of basic version well, i don’t know how you can hide the history of the missile, and the most logical thing is to point out that it’s an ok missile, but it was a mistake , they thought that it was some ukrainian drone on prigozhyn, apparently it turned off some system in the plane that didn’t recognize it. well, and somehow so uh about that say, but maybe they will say that it is a bomb. well, they appointed an investigator who has enough human experience and has investigated many different disasters

in the past, and that is why i believe that once again putin is interested in having objective information and more likely, i think they will talk about a rocket , but look, if you said that putin is losing control over his environment, if the investigators who will tell putin the true version of what happened, it will be proven that it was a rocket of the russian air defense forces, and there it will be clear that this was done on his instructions, or could it be that putin will punish him, or the shoguns are a very important person for putin, and no further split in their relations can happen. i believe that sentence of punishment that there won't be, because again from the gangster's point of view, he had the right to do this, uh, there was a riot against him, he answered and russia is now governed by illegals, and russia is governed by such

concepts, and that's why i think that punishment is unlikely but think about it about the fact that even shoigu is getting out of control. well, this is obvious. i believe that there will be a new wave of denunciations from the fsb on the russian military, and sooner or later, of course , certain conclusions will be drawn. one more question will be related to what the consequences may be now for ukraine as a whole, i mean wagner, he will be fully controlled by the russian ministry of defense, or the wagners in this are also putting in their ears that i know it is conditionally guilty, as they say , the kyiv regime and you need to fight ukraine even more unfold in this context of events even even everything is wonderful this is a real gift er for independence day i think that wagner

will disappear and well, that part of wagner as i am now in belarus it will disappear completely er it will be dissolved and inside the ministry of defense there was one division which tried to say something against it, but mostly the majority of them, well, commander, they agreed with the fact that they will be there, there are certain interesting proposals here , the question is what will happen in africa with these wagner units that are there because in in belarus, it’s expenses, it’s not a roof, it’s not income, and it’s something that i can use there for geopolitical sanctions , but it’s impossible to make money there, and in africa there are huge incomes and there’s property and there, er, there

’s diamonds and there and various other natural the resources are controlled as well, and the military contract there is simply very profitable, and now i don’t see a person who can intercept it all there, it’s more likely that it will split somehow and there will be problems, and this determines that the first thing there is the influence of russia in africa russia's influence will decrease from the point of view there the threats to lithuania and poland will decrease, the threat to ukraine from the north from belarus will also decrease , that is, one more profit. firstly, kadyrov's beautiful friend is at the end, she wrote she was left alone, but what could such messages be for and

how far kadyrov is now controlled by putin? still, a conditional mutiny against moscow can take place both against putin and from kadyrov, if kadyrov doesn't like something, is he completely controlled by the kremlin? i don't think that kodirov is completely controlled by the kremlin, but kadyrov is a pupil of surkova and he is a much more cautious and intelligent person than privozh. more carefully, and he does not have such a connection with putin, he is also a fairly close person , but there is certainly no such level of trust in such a connection, which is a parishioner and such, and i believe that in general, the cadres, being a chechen, he

er will wait to see how everything will end if there er is not a very likely situation when putin wins he will remain loyal if there is a defeat and the fall of the regime i believe that kadyra will try to declare his independence er and then everyone is already there the events will unfold inside, we are already going through it like this. but why, for example, prigozhin was not removed on the territory of africa conditionally. so where was he the day before, why exactly on the territory of russia, is this some kind of signal, well, it was a russian anti-aircraft gun located on the territory of russia, thank you, thank you thank you for this analysis, ilya ponomarev, a russian political scientist, a member of the state duma of the russian federation, for the seventh time in 16 years, a guest of our broadcast, the energy system of ukraine is ready for

the winter without blackouts, however, it is impossible to predict the consequences of russian attacks. noted that energy workers are ready to quickly respond to possible emergency situations. and last winter taught me a lot. this was a direct quote, namely how to maintain the country's energy system, but in the opinion halushchenka this winter's strikes may be modified, what is meant by modified strikes, the minister did not explain, we do not plan any power outages, provided that there will not be any very serious damage due to russian strikes, in the event that there are no critical hits, the power system is fully ready for next winter earlier experts , for example, the director of energy programs of the razumkov center, volodymyr malchenko , explained and stated that missile strikes are possible this winter, and on gas, he infrastructure of the country, however, according to the same experts, even if such strikes occur, it should not cause difficulties for the gas supply, because the gas transportation system can be restored quickly enough, the system is built in such a way that any section can be

quickly isolated and then quickly replaced a section of the pipe despite the fact that energy workers worked on the restoration of the power system throughout the summer, burning hours of consumption in the summer, for example, due to the air conditioners being turned on, there was not enough capacity and sometimes they attracted energy from european countries this is what the ceo of the yasno company is saying. it is a large energy company of the dtek group that provides electricity to this and other cities. last winter , serhiy kovalenko talked about the energy situation every day on his facebook and answered the questions of outraged subscribers about power outages by serhiy kovalenko. we talked the day before about what conclusions did the company make and how to prepare for this winter , let's listen. please tell me what the current situation is with electricity networks and energy in ukraine, or is there a significant deficit it is possible and how fragile the system is as a whole. after all, spring and summer were the time when it was possible to repair what was damaged . well, let's try to divide the question into two more, well, into two parts. what is the

current situation in the energy system of ukraine? i would like to see a few main ones moments that are currently happening in the energy system, well, first of all, you need to understand that our enemy has damaged somewhere there, according to the state's estimates, about 50% of the entire infrastructure of the energy system, from networks to generation, you are like that, that's why the main story what what else well what is happening in the power system at the moment what is happening every company is trying what can be repaired repair or prepare for well before the heating season for peak consumption er peak consumption in the winter of the second well and from this side it must be said that the time is currently happening generation repair work is primarily thermal power plants and we hear statements and we see what is happening repair

work on nuclear e-e power units that is all well, what does this in turn give us from the point of view consumption from the point of view of consumption, this gives us an increased generation deficit. well, that's why when a block goes out for repair and its capacity is not there. in the power system, i will remind you that we are at the peak, we are a deficit state, and when something else is being repaired, then we are even more deficient, we become deficient, i will say yes, we already see the statement of the ministry, we are already summer, well, serbia is quite hot, and already at peak hours we attract so-called emergency assistance from european countries. that is, we do not have enough electricity and at peak hours we we already take electricity from them for consumption alone. this story is from romania. for example, there were reports

that ukraine asked for help, this and these are other countries that are next to us. with which, well, from which do we take electricity during peak hours, let me remind you that peak hours are somewhere. well, there are the so-called two peaks per- the first light one is in the morning at around 10:00 a.m. when some of the population is still at home and some are already in the offices and the consumption is duplicated, it is not enough, it is small, and the evening peak is quite large when the population migrates from the point of offices migrates goes home, turns on the air conditioners, starts washing, prepares food, so on, so on, around 16:00 to 22:00. we have quite a big peak if we talk about the heat. well, all over ukraine , they calculated what one degree gives. excuse me, 4% increase in consumption growth in kyiv, in kyiv

, well in kyiv, it is a little more peak because we have a large share of the population. well, in general consumption in kyiv, well, quite a large share of the population. well, in general, i will finish my opinion. in general, we see that uh, in kyiv in the summer, well, this summer, somewhere on 5- 7% of consumption is higher than last summer. well, so be it to understand the relativity there, it is clear that the state of ukraine and the government are all preparing for what will happen in the winter and late autumn, what should ukrainians prepare for 100 of the messages you have are you preparing for whether russian forces will continue to attack the energy system of ukraine or maybe they will switch to gas into the system, about which rumors are already circulating and they write about it separately in social networks, how high

are the risks? let me ask this. can i personally, the company, will say or not. we assume that the enemy will fire at the power system in ukraine, so we assume that depending on your position, there are two, perhaps, scenarios when the enemy does not fire or does not hit that is, here, well, here too, it is necessary to understand that shelling and hitting are a little different here, if the enemy will hit, let's call it that, of course it will be in one or the other uh , we will see a repeat of last winter , how much will there be a repeat where will he go hit, how quickly the light will return, we don't know because everything depends on where they will hit and how often, but we proceed from the fact that we need to prepare because if we prepare for this scenario and they will not fire there or will not hit, well,

of course we we will survive the winter there with a better mood there in her with more , well, more optimistic there, the consequences of the same reason , i, well, i always because we have to prepare for a repeat of last winter and from this it turns out i would still like to stop at the numbers, but from this one what information do you have about the percentage of the power system that is possible, the ratio as of now is intact and damaged because the percentage still needs to be refined and repaired if there are such numbers i don’t really like to evaluate the topic eh in some percentages because he, well, he doesn’t give anything eh in my opinion, it is necessary to evaluate, come from specific segments of some specific time. well, for example, we know that there detector tests should be restored. seven blocks should

be built. well, by winter, another seven should be launched of energy units, these numbers are religious because, well, it is not a number to say five times 10 times 95. well, it does not tell us anything, therefore, in my opinion , it is not. well, it is not some number that can tell us something, we know two things the first thing is that we are at the peak of winter consumption and are a deficit state. that is, all our power is not enough to cover our fopa . this is the first, well, this is the first thing we must understand . with light, that is, networks are damaged but they work one way or another and we can logically conclude that if there are no new hits there , the system will withstand 99% even the winter peak of winter consumption

. it is possible to somehow strengthen important objects or they did not suffer damage or survived subsequent attacks, well, conditionally there for a simple understanding of how we see it but i don't know how to put a concrete block there, maybe some nodes can be moved underground if it is possible of course from the point of view of how the system functions or some there may be international experience in this context well, i will answer very briefly uh, these works on objects have been carried out since the past well, since the past well, since last winter, since last season, they have been carried out and i i think that my answer should end there, because in order not to divulge this or that, thank you, thank you for this activation, serhiy kovalenko , ceo of the company. it is clear about the situation we have in the system today and what to prepare

for. the freedom of mornings project. thank you for attention, we wish you a peaceful weekend and see you on monday, the 548th day of heroic resistance of the ukrainian people to the russian occupiers continues in the wind news on espresso in angelika's studio for a season insulting the graves kyiv police detained girls who filmed a video of dancing in the cemetery near military burials law enforcement officers saw the video during monitoring social networks and in less than an hour they established the location of the mallets . thus, the girls wanted to honor the memory of the fallen defenders for now the accused face from five to three years of imprisonment. at night, the russians launched
