[000:00:00;00] expert for now all good-bye from ukraine in the studio in london, the mayor's assistants are working today in the program we are talking about the price of the ukrainian counter-navigation, what are the losses of the armed forces of ukraine for the return of the territories captured by russia , gay in ukraine, the number of those killed in the war is growing rapidly, american officials declare the true figure of losses, a state secret, however, the publication the new york times recently wrote that 70,000 ukrainian servicemen have died since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of russia into ukraine

. what is the price of advancement at the front? bbc journalists, let's start with the events of last night, russia launched a massive strike with missiles and drones on kyiv, the air defense system destroyed all 28 cruise missiles, 15 out of 16 attack drones , but two people in the capital were killed. sevastopol in pskov, russia, which is 700 km from ukraine, drones hit the airfield there, destroying two il-76 military transport planes, and four more were damaged. these planes were transporting russian troops and at first about kyiv, the local military administration says similar attacks last night, the ukrainian capital has not suffered damage since the spring, the darnytskyi and shevchenkivskyi districts

of kyiv were damaged . on the street here in kyiv, several hours have passed since the explosion that happened here at dawn , there was no one on the street as far as is known. in both directions, people go about their business, clean up broken glass, repair window frames, doors, check what was destroyed in the various shops located here , it's tiring work, but this city is already well known, this has happened in many places many times, i woke up from the fact that the apartment was on fire, so light it was so bright, i woke up from it, but my husband saw

such a layer of fire fly by, that is, a banner. it was one of 28 cruise missiles and 14 drones aimed at different regions of ukraine. this morning, it became one of the biggest attacks of this kind since the spring, but if you look around you can see that people are not bothered by this, they are familiar with it somewhere, they are only repairing what is needed across the street in the park, the police are studying the debris of something that looks like a part of a downed missile, it is interesting that the ukrainians shoot down more and more effectively every time russian nuclear missiles this time almost all 28 karland missiles and 14 drones launched during the night were shot down and this is the first since the beginning of the full-scale invasion

when several russian regions at the same time was attacked by drones, the exact number of drones is still unknown, as well as the extent of the damage, however, according to information that has not yet been officially confirmed , two il-76 military transport aircraft were destroyed in pskov, four more aircraft were damaged , observers say that the loss of these aircraft for the russian forces is not critical, but have russians experienced what it is like to wake up to explosions with details bbc correspondent in moscow steve rosinberg somewhere from the fuel it is already happening according to a certain scheme in recent weeks there have been drone attacks all over russia sometimes they flew deep into russian territory, but what happened today is a particularly large-scale attack by drones. six russian regions and the occupied crimea suffered it. it is not yet known for sure what damage was caused by this attack. the russian authorities claim that most of the drones shot down air defense systems . the largest attack was in the pskov area, where

the target was the local airport, initially russian officials reported that four planes were damaged, and later their number was reduced to two, and this was also done in the bryansk region, which borders ukraine reported that they were planning to target the local tv tower for a long time in the morning. in my opinion, these attacks send a clear signal from ukraine to russia, and it is like this. you attacked us, you invaded our country, we have the right to attack you and are capable of doing so. i think this is the irony of it if we go back to the beginning full-scale invasion of ukraine, which president putin called a special military operation , one of the kremlin's justifications was the need to strengthen russia's national security, which the kremlin claimed threatened ukraine america nato, the west in general, in fact, these drone attacks show that instead of strengthening national security, the invasion of ukraine actually made russia and

the russian people insecure, but i do not think that people are already beginning to realize this and conclude that these drone attacks are occurring as a result of the invasion of ukraine, and that the level of danger is increasing measures what is happening , plays up the narrative of the kremlin, the narrative that is heard in the state media from morning to evening, namely that russia is a fortress under siege that is threatened the external forces of nato - america ukraine and in a certain sense this plays into the hands of president putin during the war governments are reluctant to talk about their losses, but recently the new york times, citing american officials, published figures according to their data ukraine lost almost 70 thousand soldiers russia almost 120 000 at the same time, us officials warned that it is difficult to estimate the real number of casualties because moscow regularly underestimates

the number of people killed in the war and kyiv does not disclose official figures at all, but as they believe the number of dead increased sharply just after the start of the ukrainian counter-attack, bbc correspondents quentinson reavily and daryn conway visited the front line in the east of ukraine, where sunflower fields become cemeteries and where ukrainian flags are raised over the graves of soldiers, i warn you, some footage may shock the black fields and zoryana, every day of the war, crying behind the fallen , this song about past battles is getting louder and louder, but it echoes far away in all corners of ukraine, where the new generation already knows the pain of grief and sacrifice

. maria came here to pay her respects and to pray for a relative who disappeared in the forestless white this is already the second summer of the war with its terrible consequences, my lord is still gay, everyone has lost someone oksana mourns her husband, they were together for 5 years, the mountains are still unbearable pavlo was a world champion who went to fight as a volunteer in november of last year, the russian aviation shot him with a circle honestly it's still very hard to accept i can only accept it here and yes i think

he is somewhere if he's still alive and continues just doing his job sorry and this is us from ola cross in cemeteries all over ukraine has more dead soldiers here in lviv near the border with poland, it is very far from the battles on the eastern front, hundreds of fresh graves of soldiers, in fact , there are so many of them on this cylinder that here on the hill they are clearing the way where the dead lie in previous wars to make room for those who died in this in the conflict , blood-stained blankets, bundles and bandages from lives that could not

be saved in this urban morgue, margot's job is to remember their victims and their names, now bodies arrive every day of ukrainian young men and women since the beginning of the counteroffensive in june, their number has doubled, they are leaving one by one, an endless trail of grief ukraine ukraine does not publish official figures about the dead, but it is about tens of thousands, this is routine, as i repeat every day, many are unrecognizable, so they are looking for phones, wallets and clues to to know the dead, no loss is like

any other, but for margot, one case was particularly important: a civilian burned man who died during this family of the whole homeland, a difficult day in my life, but then i was once again convinced that i should be here. it was the most difficult day. it was only one day of losses from one small part of the long front of this war, however , the desire to fight did not abate, and oksana agreed with her husband that if he died in bodya, she would leave to fight she is still getting used to army life and

the dangers associated with it this road is regularly shelled back beyond the borders of bakhmut they leave and immediately hide in the nearby forest this position is in the range of russian guns only thousands of other ukrainians oksana had very little time to mourn and chose battle fight we hear from many soldiers on the front line that the time to mourn will come when the war is over habib aviation habib aviator communication check now she is part of

an air reconnaissance group that hunts russian anti-tank unit they have to work fast the risk here is real in the open space the russian artillery will not need much time to find them, why should a man stay at home after his death? and they decided to come here to the front line because morally there was no longer the strength to stay at home, i am very wanted to continue his work so that his life would not be simply useless well, that is, he was going to his goal, he wanted the end of the war, he wanted peace, so that people would continue to live happily in our country, but the hope for peace and victory for oksana

is still a distant dream, she and margot are doing their part to honor the memory of the dead and keep our country free, the land of ukraine is a witness of how much it has already sacrificed and how much black plowed land is still ahead, that 's all for today, more history, search on

weapons will definitely change the world. stories, problems, analysis and personalities . we are waiting for you. john gerbs is the former ambassador to the united states in ukraine . this is freedom in the morning, the informational project of radio svoboda, top guests every day, this is the shipping district of kherson, we are on live, we are somewhere in the vicinity of bakhmut, we tell the main thing on weekdays at 9:00. hello everyone, this is freedom life my name is sashko shevchenko and today we are talking about what ukraine allegedly clipped the wings of the pskov landing force as a result of a drone attack, four il-76 aircraft were

destroyed, they say in ukrainian intelligence, but they do not take responsibility for these strikes, how serious is the attack and how serious is this attack undermining the capabilities of the russian federation in zaporizhzhia region , a drone flew into a building that russia is going to use for holding elections to the state duma, and in novaya kakhovka they destroyed the headquarters of united russia, which is running for office in the occupied territories in russian bodies authorities and not the union, the armed forces of ukraine, their plans, defense or excess of authority in the dnipro, a policeman shot a driver who resisted, the event was filmed, the child of the deceased , who incited the father to attack the patrolmen , did the policeman have the right to shoot the violator, and what does the investigation say about this investigation, projects for freedom, the scheme also obtained the full video of this incident from both cameras of the police, we will show it in this drone strike on the airport in the russian city of pskov disabled

four il-76 military transport planes about this was stated by the spokesman of the gur of the ministry of defense of ukraine andriy yusov, according to him, four russian planes were put out of service without return . that is, they are completely destroyed and cannot be restored. il-76 planes are used by pskov paratroopers who were involved in the war against ukraine. this is how the drone strike on the airport in pskov, russia looked not far from estonia, ukrainian drones also allegedly tried to attack a tv tower in bryansk, russia; there were also drone attacks in other regions of russia, according to international media, in these attacks, ukraine uses drones of its own production and not those provided by western partners, however, the spokeswoman of the russian ministry of foreign affairs claims that the west is allegedly sending ukrainian drones with the help

of satellites today at night . in bryansk , a damaged administrative building in the dzerzhinsky district of the kharkiv region , an unmanned flying device hit an empty tank for storing not all products ukrainian drones were shot down in moscow's oryol and ryazan and tula regions according to preliminary data. as a result of these attacks , some of the systems were damaged. namely western

satellites ukrainian drones simply could not well, at least it was damaged about one of the most devastating drone attacks in the depths of russian territory, let's talk with us live, the head of the center for military and legal research, oleksandr musienko , good evening good evening well, let's talk about the significance of lithuanian obskov and specifically these military transports for russia il-76 aircraft and, in particular, paratroopers are already known to the ukrainian medi as pskov paratroopers in the fact is that indeed the paratroopers who serve there are suspected of committing war crimes and crimes against of humanity precisely in buch and near kiev, and i think that this is in particular such a retribution, that is, they suffered losses in the course of the war against ukraine, and now they are also suffering . it was positioned as an elite paratroopers' base, and it is also

home to officers of the main intelligence agency of the russian ministry of defense, as well as the airfield they use, it is used in particular by the ministry of defense of russia and the vkks military space forces for the transport of landing forces, that is, it is clear that the landing party must be transferred, it is transported by mud by 76 military transport planes, and during the full-scale invasion of the russian troops of ukraine, there were unsuccessful attempts by the russian landing force to land everyone near kiev in gostomel, precisely with the help of these planes, which were shot down here eh. therefore, strictly speaking, this is a loss directly for the regiment, because any landing is not a landing without the presence of military transport aircraft. therefore, for this of a specific military unit and, in general, for now, it is possible for russia to quickly and mobilely transfer landing groups themselves from this unit

and precisely to other territories to other objects, well , in fact, they are deprived of such an opportunity at least for a while, so it is natural that there is a loss and an attack, since military facilities, it is important. by the way, what the spokeswoman of the russian ministry of foreign affairs says once again testifies to the lies and fakes that are being spread because these are military facilities and there are no violations on the part of ukraine. things, i remember mentioning that this airfield is also, well, it's so combined there , and civilian planes also board. well, how important is it in this context, that no civilian plane was injured as far as is known, that is, actually speaking, and there is no data about the people injured there and so on, that is, that russia uses them in combination, this is already a question directly for russia, why does it expose its civil aviation

to dangers in this way? is conducted by this very department in ukraine, and they affect the mood in the russian army, well, because it was obviously, well, a surprise for them. if we have already talked about the losses, then how can it affect the mood at all? i think that it definitely does not have a positive effect . it is clear that russia is now simply faced with what they did not believe and what they did not realize, that is, this unprovoked illegal aggression of russia against ukraine, which was conceived as simply a so-called special military operation, actually led to the war now with all its negative consequences on the territory of russia and, of course, here is one of the videos where the attacks of last night were recorded, where one of the russian citizens there says what happened to you

on february 24, then i think that this is probably the best way to describe the state and eloquence of what led to 24 february 2022, when the russian invasion of ukraine became possible. and now these are the consequences, and here in ukraine we need to defend ourselves. using all the available opportunities, ukrainian-made drones and other types of potential weapons that can also be produced in order to defend ourselves and to strike at military facilities in russia. it is clear. now let's talk about the so-called technical component of the issue . pskov is located at a distance of more than 700 km from ukraine. so on. well, it’s not far for modern drones, it’s not a long distance . the fact is that modern drones of this type

have a range of 1,000 km and beyond, and for ukraine, this is even more difficult. that the territory of russia is very large and the military facilities of the russian army and the military factories of the military-industrial complex are scattered in different corners and regions of russia , and it is obvious that it is 500-700 km. this is probably the starting point from which it is necessary to develop in the ukrainian drones , and as far as i know, there are opportunities to use them now for 1,500 km, that is, in principle, they were in principle earlier, because even last year, i want to remind you that the angel air base was attacked . where do russian strategic aircraft take off from? aviation, in particular, here 95 and then attack ukraine. therefore, this is a completely normal range, how to manage the means of the missile defense system is a whole work and art or planning of such operations, because in order to carry out such a full-scale operation, it is necessary to conduct

development with the help of various sources, it is necessary to evaluate the information, it is necessary to establish and to check how sensitive these or other radars are, that is, the radar stations used by russia to detect these or other objects in the sky well, besides that drones are less visible for detection by most of the air defenses of the russian troops, and there is one more point - that is that russia previously deployed a large number of air defenses of various types in the occupied part of ukraine, in particular in the occupied crimea and in the south. and this became possible precisely because that they removed from combat duty a large number of such means precisely from the west and northwest of the territory of russia, that is why additional prospects opened up in order to make

these drone attacks more successful. for example, close to the student's office, the telegram channel vertical writes that the drones were launched from the outskirts of pskov, that is, they did not fly as far as possible. well , i don't know, you understand, that is, versions are possible there , now it writes a lot, you know, that is why there can be many versions, let me know about that that it was launched from whom nothing is known, that is, and moreover, i think that it would be simply impossible to carry out a technical attack, because it is quite difficult for a ukrainian subversive group to penetrate such a long distance and carry out such an attack even and such well, such a rather large-scale version of the past. they may be different, but i am still inclined to the fact that it was not
