[000:00:00;00] in the north, we just keep a close watch, defend our troops, shoot down missiles and so on and so on, please comment, well, in principle you are right, yes, that is, the army is currently in a state of heightened combat readiness on all borders, that is, we have there is also daria, where there is also an uneasy border with syria, there is a border with lebanon, and there were also certain air threats that we noticed in the area... the sea, this is the south, yes, the south of israel, there are the southern resort towns elad, who is also us intercepted, today, we see that hizballah does take a certain part, but basically it consists in the fact that there will be several attempts to penetrate the territory of israel to cross the border, mainly shelling of our soldiers, yes, because in the main , this is the shelling of civilians, this is the shelling of cities, but simply most

of the cities in the north of israel have been evacuated to other cities closer to the center, so mostly our military units are being shelled, but for today, yes, as it were our main strength, our main, our emphasis, it is on the territory of the gas sector, because that is where the biggest threat comes from, but of course we are ready on all borders to stop any attempt to attack our security, thank you very much, anna ukoloova, press secretary... the tzahal, that is, the israel defense forces, was in touch with us, now we will have a small story, advertising, well, a break, for 8 to 10 minutes, and then we will talk about poland, there too some pretty interesting stories are happening, in short, right now there will be stories, then advertising, then poland, then mykola veresen, and so on. three weeks

of massive airstrikes and the entry of troops. tzahalo on the territory of the gaza strip. at the end of the fourth week of the war , the israeli army reported that it had struck more than 1,200 villages in the enclave and had destroyed dozens of high-ranking terrorists. yes, israel is responding to the invasion of almost 3,000 armed hamas fighters on october 7. then. terrorists invaded the outskirts of the city and the kibbutz, shot, raped, and cut them off head for adults and children. according to the latest data, 1,400 israelis died that day, until now about one and a half hundred different victims could not be identified. according to updated data, 242 people are held captive by terrorists, the smallest hostage is not even a year old. when i saw danielle's photo on

tv, my heart almost stopped. on the one hand, my wife and i were shocked, and on the other, we were relieved to see her alive, until today we knew nothing about her. in four weeks, hamas released four hostages, others they promise to give back as soon as israel releases about 6,000 hamas fighters from prison, stops shelling and delivers everything necessary in gas, primarily fuel, which is very necessary for the terrorists to operate their tunnels. another hostage: a military idf... managed to be freed during a ground operation in gaza. the shared assessment of everyone, not just the cabinet members, but also the security forces and the military, is that ground action does provide an opportunity to get our hostages out. bukhamas will not be released prisoners, if the terrorists are not pressured. the situation in the gaza strip itself is critical. since the first day, the tzahal has warned of shelling and called on civilians to evacuate to the south,

closer to the border with egypt. hamasites they prevent this and often use the locals as a shield. for example, under one of the largest hospitals in gaza, shifa hospital, according to idf intelligence, terrorists have placed their control center in the dungeons. we eliminated a group of terrorists while they were in the jabalia refugee camp, along with command headquarters and underground facilities located within the buildings within this camp. this again demonstrates the cynical use of terror. killers, as human shields of the civilian population that we called to evacuate to the south for their safety, this is a cynical tactic that terrorists will continue to use, the closest neighbors, the egyptians are in no rush to help the civilians of the gaza strip, only in the fourth week of the war they have begun to let in bit by bit foreigners and wounded. rocket attacks on southern and central israel and the gas strips do not stop, there are many hits on

residential buildings , so the service... the rear command, although it has allowed the education system and many businesses to resume, asks the israelis to continue to follow their instructions and not to ignore the alarm signals, the population of the border... cities and kibbutzim, both in the south and in the north, remain under evacuation. in total, more than 3,000 israelis have been forced to flee their homes by shelling, and despite the constant attacks, some have begun to return. i think i am the first to open a facility in this industrial zone after events on october 7, because i could not afford not to open, but there are factories that are still closed. meanwhile, in the north on the border with lebanon, a proxy terrorist organization of iran. also does not stop shelling the territory of israel. tzahal responds and launches preemptive strikes and the opening of a full-fledged second front is not yet in question. we are strengthening the capability of the air force to

respond to any threat that may arise from the north. hezbollah will pay a high price. we repeat, israel is not interested in war, but if someone wants us provoke, they will pay for this attempt. very high price. last week , israel declared war on yemen's houthis, an iran-backed shiite zaydi militia group operating in northern yemen. they have already several times announced the launch of rockets and drones at the southernmost city of israel, eilat, and boasted about it on social networks. so far, there has been no damage from these shellings. the first missiles were intercepted by the saudis and americans, several targets, the tzahal air force. but the general tension in the region persists. and the main question is whether they will join in the war other terrorist organizations and countries, remains open. from israel, ulyana druchkova, for espresso tv channel. 226

for, 196 against. the lower house of the us congress passed a package of aid to israel worth more than 14 billion dollars, split along party lines. the democrats mostly did not support it because it does not have the funds to support ukraine. president joseph biden proposed adopting a joint $106 billion aid package for ukraine, israel and taiwan. but the speaker of the chamber was recently elected rep. trumpist republican mike johnson opposed. like, israel is an undisputed ally of the usa, and if the white house wants to help ukraine, then let it, but under conditions. that the american-mecca border will be strengthened, through which illegal migrants arrive in the usa en masse. ukraine will appear in the near future, it will be next. i said that we want

to unify border security with ukraine. if we are going to take care of the border in ukraine, then we should also take care of the american border. the future of the approved draft law on aid to israel is dubious, to become law, it has to... pass the upper house of congress, that is, the senate, and there the democrats have a majority, and their leader, chuck schumer, has already said that he will not bring the initiative to the vote, to veto the document in such the president, joe biden, is also threatened. in addition, the leader of the republican minority in the senate, mitchell mcconnell, advocates the simultaneous allocation of aid to ukraine, israel and taiwan. he sees all three conflicts as one. the challenge that the dictatorships threw west. think about it as an axis, an axis of evil, china, russia and iran, so this is not just a test for ukraine, it is a test for

the united states and the free world, and the way to greater security for all of us is simple, to help ukraine win the war. another argument of mcconnell is the billions of dollars that the us allocates to ukraine. eventually returning to the american economy. defense enterprises in 38 states receive this money for the production and modernization of weapons to replace those that washington gives to kyiv. but not all of mcconnell's party members are like in the house representatives and in the senate agree with him. some of them are outspoken isolationists who are against even indirect participation in any conflicts abroad, others consider the actions of the biden administration a waste, they say, the white house allocates funds to ukraine without any strategic goal. this week, eight republicans in the house of representatives sent

a letter to president biden with the conditions for further assistance. a simple strategy. you and i will not win yet, or we must win, is not a winning strategy. how ukraine will win and how long does it take no. these estimates don't have to be exact, but we have to understand the end goal. is there such a strategy in the white house, defense secretary lloyd this week. secretary of state anthony blinken , during a hearing in the senate budget committee, persuaded senators to support a joint aid package, they did not mention the victory of ukraine, but instead spoke about the need not to give victory to putin. in ukraine, putin felt that he could wait, this is part of his strategy, the main part of him strategies. he hopes that the west will get tired of supporting ukraine and thus he will soon get his way, i think so, if we do not support ukraine and putin wins,

he will not stop in ukraine. valery zaluzhny's article fuels the debate around the country. opponents of aid cling to the words of the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, that the war has become a positional one and reached a dead end. supporters emphasize the need for increased aid in order to get out of this impasse. observers assume that in the end, the separation of ukraine may be a compromise. aid package, but less than the $61.5 billion proposed by biden, the military component will probably not be affected, instead, budget support for kyiv may be reduced, which means that ukraine will have to think about where to get money to pay pensions and salaries to state employees. in any case, the controversy surrounding aid is a bad story for ukraine. the issue that united american politicians at the beginning of the full-scale invasion has become one that divides it, support for ukraine is falling and

among average americans, according to the october survey by the sociological company gelab, 41% of americans believe that the united states is doing too much for ukraine, which is almost twice as much as in august 2022. more than 60 us citizens believe that neither ukraine nor russia will win the war. and what do you think about lakalut fix, it fixes reliably, my dentist advised me. yes, and particles of food do not get under the prosthesis. and the price is good, the right choice for my retirement. lacalut fix - a new cream for extra strong fixation of dentures and healthy gums so, your choice is placal fix. meet the novelty, a profitable package of 70 g. there are discounts on helpex. 20% in pharmacies plantain,

left, just in time to talk about the balkans, and about europe, and about poland, yes. materniak, a polish expert on international issues, head of the poland-ukraine center, will appear now, he has already appeared before us. thank you, mr. darius, for finding time for us, thank you very much, and my first question is actually a continuation of the issues that we discussed with you at the beginning of october, now postponed until tomorrow, the blocking of the border with ukraine, and we were just talking about the fact that this is probably before the elections, after the elections it will all subside, but you see , it continues, is it politics or the economy, these people who want to block the border with ukraine, is this a political block, or really economical? er, good evening, thank you for the invitation, well, here these two spheres, these

two matters, they are always combined, er, what should be said to us, in my opinion, at least, as i observe it,

observe it. economic interests that may be, which many times will still be contradictory between poland and ukraine. as far as i know, it should also be said here that we are talking about blocking, the truth is blocking the transitions, it is no longer even about grain, but about the interests of people who are engaged in the transportation

of various if economic interests, then when it is discussed in polish society in media, someone calls the numbers, well, because if these are economic problems , then relatively speaking, farmers should say, because of all the damned ukrainians, we lose 27 million zlotys, or 45 million zlotys, polish carriers should say, because of these ukrainians, we lose 12 million or 120 million zlotys, and therefore it is not profitable for us, and then i start thinking, okay, yes, there is an element of politics here, but i see the economy, and when they tell me, no, no, don't come here, ukrainians , because i'm driving a car here, how much do you lose, and i

don't lose anything, and yes, what do you block then, the numbers are there, honestly, honestly, i'm

exactly you in this. said, who are these importers who sold ukrainian grain to poland a year ago last year in 22 other countries, and this is who did it, and here is a list, he said that there is an existing list of these people, and to this day we do not know who it is, and he said that it is very bad, because it is not from

no.. .. you can’t, you can’t hide, now on to politics, the president of poland, the former mr. lech walesa, somehow told us all so strangely that he is afraid that there may be terrorist attacks in the country, in the republic of poland, there may be terrorist actions of some kind, and i would like to ask, and this is what... how should

i react to this, for example, this, because he is no longer a young man, in contrast to wałęsa, who led the pro-union solidarity, 35 years ago, he has aged a little, and therefore he decided to remind himself if there are really any reasons to think that there

is a terrorist threat in poland, well, to be honest, i did not hear that, what about what, if he is as i said, i do not see that anything has changed very much here, mr. dariusz, what is happening on the belarusian-polish border, because when we, i am in lviv now and i look at what ukrainians write, we hardly write about it, but when i i see, there is such an anti-lukashenki channel , which is located in belsad in poland, so from time to time i see some events there, what is the situation there, there are always provocations, something is happening, tell me a little more about what is happening on the polish-

belarusian border, well here, in fact, the situation is not... that of the russian special services , which has the goal of directing as many of these illegal migrants as possible to poland and other european countries, i do not see that this should stop, it will definitely be as it is now yes, several dozen people per day will probably try to go to the rekha dopo, the last question or the penultimate

, i don’t know, mr. dariusz, in principle, you can feel the presence of the belarusian opposition in poland, there are some concerts or, on the contrary , seminars or some speeches, or some invitations of the polish leaders of belarusian leaders on television, on the radio, in interviews and so on, you feel this activity, that is, we are interested to know who will be our neighbor, just like you, if the opposition wins, how much bright to what extent it shows itself, what is the position of the next government, belarusian, that i am constantly talking about poland, please, so we know what they are, here if there are at least half a million belarusians in poland, maybe even more, many of these people came to poland after these pods

that blew up there in 2020, that is, these people. it is almost impossible to see if there is any question, if something is happening in belarus itself or, if it is from the regime of alexander lukashenko, at that

moment it happens, by chance, for our region, we hope, thank you huge, excuse me, please, mr. mr. dariusz materniak, polish expert on international issues, head of the poland -ukraine center, was with us, i see behind me there were polish and ukrainian flags, and now only ukrainian ones, so now we will not talk about don't think about ukraine, we'll talk
