the medical facilities, an ent doctor was killed and a nurse was also injured, a total of five people were injured, this is what the destroyed hospital in kherson looks like. well, kharkiv in russia the troops began to attack the city with drones. although before that kharkiv was mainly attacked with s-300 missiles, part of the drones were shot down by the ukrainian air defense system. however, there were flights, and one of the targets turned out to be the higher vocational school, which trains specialists in the field of service since the beginning of the full-scale invasion. all students of the institution study online. so there was no one in the building, the most damage was done to the second and third floors of the building, and now

the analysis of the debris is ongoing. go there, i hear, it flew very hard, one blow, somewhere far away, then closer, then like at home, right next to me, and it rained here, it’s so nice. well, that’s it, i’m drinking too much. i ’m looking at the windows. no, my granddaughter called, she says, my grandmother, they are thinking, she goes outside, what do we need for this neighbor's brother, so that he is ours, i am from there, i am from there , i am afraid, that's how i can shamelessly say now that you belong to, er, russian russell apple tree , which i am not like that i saw apples

they started from the trunk of the tree, you can see that it is decorated up to the very top, they are all lying on the ground, they were mistaken from the explosion from the release of sounds this is how mopeds drive sounds sounds sounds one second the third there were a lot of sounds and then there were blows and flames and it was very scary burning and it smelled in the apartments, it was impossible to stay in the house . we closed all the windows because of the smell . well, it was very bad for the people . i was sitting in the corridor between the doors. my daughter and son -in- law and the kitten were sitting. shevchenkivskiy districts of the city of kharkiv directly er well, this educational institution was hit

, the roof and ceiling of the second and third floors of this building were destroyed , and there was a fire on the second floor on an area of ​​200 m². now the rescuers, bringing in heavy machinery, a crane, together with the workers of communal services, are conducting an analysis of the rubble of the dismantling of the emergency structures of this building. well, again a night attack on moscow, according to the local authorities. attacks on july 30, there were no victims as a result of this attack, the emergency services of russia also reported that the load-bearing structure of the house was not damaged, the ministry of defense of russia, commenting on the events in the center of moscow, said that one drone was damaged by means of electronic warfare and then fell on the tower of the moscow network, how did it happen

and what the eyewitnesses say, look at the horror, it was so terrifying yesterday, two flew in at about the same time, and today another one flew in, and the second one flew in , the second one, another one. pollen there is no fear because if this happened, well, what remains to be done, they are afraid because after the first flight, everyone said that the second

time it will not hit the same place. when everyone woke up today, we are finally a security guard. we are a little shocked, so i don't know yet, but i think that yes, i will move . well, explosions can be heard in occupied sevastopol right now. this is reported by the svoboda a krym realii radio project with reference to local social networks in crimea. telegram channels claim that the explosion is taking place in the area the village of sakharna golovka is located there , among other things, there are four warehouses of weapons, ammunition, equipment and military property of russia. according to him , the drone was previously shot down again. well, it is also reported that there was an explosion on the ground, the grass and bushes caught fire

, and fire calculations have already started on the spot. extinguishing about this at least amuses you, but we are waiting for an update of this information, we will inform you as soon as it appears - some new information about crimea will appear, i would like to remind you that in fact today's drone attack on crimea is also not the first time. over the past month, there have been several the same arrivals were recorded several times. meanwhile, in the south of ukraine, fighting continues in two sectors south of the nuts, and ukrainian troops are attacking the 58th general all-russian army of russia , the general army of russia reports in according to the current intelligence report of great britain 58, the army most likely feels the exhaustion of the advanced units. this is how it goes in the review. well, further to the east, if more precisely to the south of the great novosilka , russia is withdrawing troops for defense from both the eastern and southern military

districts that probably also creates problems of coordination, british intelligence believes that the units of the fifth combined arms army are likely to be under great pressure and need to be rotated . of artillery ammunition in reserves and problems with securing the flanks of the defending units are stated in the summary of british intelligence and i remind you that literally last week the bloomberg agency, with reference to an american official who asked not to be named, reported that the armed forces of ukraine have launched a large-scale offensive in the south of the country, the operation is beginning almost two months after ukraine began following the well-fortified russian defense lines, according to a bloomberg publication, well , we will also detail all this now

viktor kivylyuk, colonel zaparov, an expert at the center for defense strategies , is already joining our broadcast to discuss. well, they tell me that he will appear any minute. e this is reported by the svoboda kri radio project and also telegram channels claim that the explosion took place and the explosion took place in the village, as i already said, sugar loaf, there are primarily e-e warehouses with weapons and ammunition and equipment, etc. well, i will also remind you that over the past almost 10 years, to be more precise , since 2014, russia has turned crimea into such a large military base. there are a lot of them, now more than 200 military bases have been discovered, in particular, by journalists from crimea realiy and judging by today's of news, apparently explosions are happening somewhere near one of these bases, and viktor kyvlyuk, a colonel of the reserve of the defense strategies express center, has already joined our

broadcast good evening good evening let 's start from the south while we monitor what is happening in crimea right now general what is the situation at the front at the front what is the general picture do you see and do you not see signs of a large-scale offensive in the south, in particular which one is written about by the western media in the southern direction the grouping of the forces of the defense forces has been developing the offensive for the past two months an offensive operation is being conducted in three directions on the e- e berdyansk e melitopol and tokmak events are developing somewhat slowly on the right flank on the central and left flank and left flank areas e-e events are developing

more dynamically and more successfully although all i want everything to develop faster, we are dealing with a long time, but for a long time, the enemy's defenses have been prepared, which , firstly, is not quite canonically equipped, secondly , the depth and density of the minefields there exceeds all possible standards, and thirdly , the enemy had from 14 - those up to 15 months for the preparation of these fortifications, therefore, events develop quite slowly, although our troops demonstrate good tactical techniques, putting the enemy in an awkward position, avoiding large losses, but they pay for it with the pace of advancement. and what do you have on pay attention to the pace of advancement

, how slow is this pace , if you have understood correctly, everyone wants us to run to the sea of ​​azov like a 100-meter runner, but no , this is a marathon. they said that russia could be defeated in as little as four months . well, two and a half of them have already passed, and actually then you referred to western researchers who analyzed the russian e-e wars in which russia participated in the last 300 years and came to the conclusion that in such wars, where russia was victorious, victory came in 8 months, and where it was defeated in 18. well, in fact, the war has been going on for the 17th month , it turns out that this theory does not work, the theory works just fine, we have a situation where the enemy has on the front line the most combat-capable, better-prepared and equipped forces, and these forces are under enormous pressure, are suffering enormous losses to date. the enemy has enormous problems with operational reserves

, because he has spent almost everything he had in the operational zone of the 58th combined arms of its army, which forms the basis of the grouping in the south of ukraine, the 34th brigade from the kherson region was transferred, the 20,247th airborne assault regiment of the seventh airborne assault division was transferred, that is, the most combat-capable, and the parts were taken in the neighboring operational zone, that is, in order to somehow restrain our the number of troops in the zaporozhye region is decreasing , that is, the operation is developing quite well , if we manage to break through the main line of defense in the next month, this should

lead to the total collapse of the entire system defenses of the enemy in zaporizhzhia , therefore we have a chance not to destroy the statistics derived by western researchers. and you see the signs that, as you said, in a month it will be possible to break through this line of defense of defense and judging by the fact that we used approximately a third of the available forces and means , we have something to build up, we have something to break through the main line of defense and the enemy has such opportunities day by day less and less considering that the other day they finished the training process of the order of 17,000 fighters a it 3 full-blooded brigades equipped with western weapons. i think that events will develop more dynamically in the coming month. you are talking about the south. now, let me talk about crimea . right now, at this very moment, the crimean

public and telegram channels are reporting that there have been explosions since august . i am already reminding our audience that since august 22nd, in crimea and in particular in sevastopol , explosions are really heard almost every day and the russian authorities in crimea explain it as shooting at drones or work of anti-aircraft defense, how much is crimea becoming weaker? if we consider it as such, uh, well, the main center of physical support of the russian troops, it is not quite correctly formulated, and the issue of crimea in itself is an administrative-territorial unit , it is not getting any weaker or stronger, it is crimea was and crimea remains in mind the troops that were in crimea are now in the south of ukraine what is left there is no understanding crimea is used is used by opponents

as a base point of the black sea the fleet of the russian federation, secondly, what are the base airfields from which the aviation support of the russian group in the south is carried out, russian logistics is naturally tied to the railway and crimea is a kind of logistical hub of the enemy, what is happening on our side is in the nato doctrine such operations as forming and supporting operations, it is the supporting operation that is carried out on crimean animals by means of long-range fire damage provided by our allies, which is carried out quite effectively, judging by the fact that the intensity artillery fire in some areas in the south. the enemy has dropped by 60% compared to uh. well, about six months

ago, the ammunition standards were reduced to 20% of those at the beginning of the invasion. logistic, as it is denoted as it will be more precisely denoted in the future on the e-e on the russian troops in ukraine, if it is very simple to explain, the russian troops in ukraine will not only have nothing to shoot at, but also soon will not be fooled. well, this is so very quite optimistic forecasts and you know they have been sounding for a long time, this is the goal of which we strive to achieve this goal in half an hour, it will not be possible, it is a long process, but it should be noted that despite the statement of russian propaganda, not a single missile from the heimers complex or rszv m-270 or storm missile will hit the russians the ppu was not intercepted. everyone who

percent hit the targets that were planned , what he talks about fighting drones, then aksyonov entertains well , it seems to me that as the ukrainian parliamentarians here said the other day, crimea will be a source of medical marijuana it already seems to be a source of marijuana, but it is used for non-magical purposes, as i think i understood you for another question, but today there was information that the chinese authorities announced a temporary restriction on the export of drones and their components, and according to american intelligence, this is me too i would like to remind you that until the spring of 2023 , china supplied russia with drones and various components worth at least 12 million dollars. what does this ban on exports from china mean?
