civilians still live here, preparing for winter, although of course there is no heating here, utility workers are trying to fix some communications here. if we walk down the street with you, the shelling will start somewhere, you immediately lie down, well, don't wait for anything, immediately go down.

the military tries to stay in open areas as little as possible, and they also recommend it to us, because enemy drones and drones are almost constantly in the air, and this is a real threat and a real danger, well, how can people live here, well, you understand, without water, no light, no banal needs there, occasionally you can see civilians on the street, people here move along one route, along the humanitarian path, thanks to it they survive, and there is plenty of grain products, that’s how, but the mice are free, but the products are here

they feed us at the point of invincibility, thank you, there are also dead, there are wounded, well, my friend was hit in the stomach by two wounds or two shrapnel, oh, what will you do, just expel foreigners from ukrainian land, then there will be peace and tranquility, say the military, and do everything possible and impossible for that, shot, very much i will catch it quickly, i hope, well, at least that’s what they say, i say i want to, they put me as a gunner, they taught me, somehow, i was in the infantry again, then i returned to the mortar, this fragile girl is 19 years old and since she came of age, the war became the main component of her life. shot, now valentina is a mortar gunner, although she could already be studying in the third year of the faculty of international relations. when it started, i just couldn't sit still. not that, well, well,

you can't sit and wait for something, you have to something to do, well, i do, meet, chasivyar is located on the commanding heights and can be the key to kostyantynivka, kramatorsk and slovyansk, our army men at the cost of incredible efforts are now holding back the onslaught of the horde. our guys hold on, use all the necessary means and methods. tactics, but the enemy does not sit still either, uses unmanned aerial vehicles, er, kamikaze drones , that is, it is a war, so to speak, drones, not so much infantry, so much artillery, mortars and drones, let’s remember those who remained on battlefield forever, we will never forget them, before the general staff reported on attempts by the russians to attack north and south of bakhmut, and apparently now these attacks... have become more

large-scale from donetsk region ihor livenok, bohdan savrutskyi, volodymyr gumenyuk, tv channel inter, details, marathon, the only news. russian attacks with the help of drones became more large-scale. as reported by the command of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine, every day the rashists use about 40 drones of various types, only in the bakhmut direction they launch a large number of lancets and fpv drones. but also for us, compared to the past year already has something to oppose. enemy, about 200 enterprises produce and deliver unmanned aerial vehicles to the front, although the volume of production must be constantly increased in order to win this war of drones. mykhailo maneliuk found out what resources were involved. drones are attacking moscow, the drone is looking directly at the track, everything is on fire, everything is burning all around, look at the smoke, it hit me somewhere in the cabin, on the glass. hit, he is a hole,

they destroy russian ships, they hit the crimean bridge, drones turn enemy armored vehicles into scrap metal, and command posts - to the ruins, this is drone warfare. and do our soldiers have enough drones to knock out the rashists from ukrainian land? in order to defeat the russians, the ukrainian army needs huge flocks of electronic birds, for reconnaissance, for attacks and even to capture the invaders. here is a fresh statement from the ministry of digital transformation. about 200 companies in ukraine are already engaged in the production of drones. appears er, it seems. that every month new companies, that is, we have a separate broyvan project that provides grants for such companies received small funds for the start, plus venture capital funds appear in ukraine, which finance, this year the government found 40 million uah for the production of drones , domestic manufacturers assemble reconnaissance

and attack drones, underwater and surface, most models have already passed tests and showed what capable, it remains only to increase volumes. somewhere we have better successes, somewhere we have worse successes, somewhere practically, well , close to zero, the bureaucratic component is huge, and it greatly delays the production of complex drones, with fpv, somehow already there resolved the issue, stanislav and his wife are engaged in the production of kamikaze drones on their own, this winged handsome man is able to carry a three-kilogram ammunition, reach a speed of up to 200 km/h, cover a fairly long distance and destroy manpower in enemy equipment, shot, shot, shot, from the last special operation to bakhmut, the distance is 28 km, two, the urals were destroyed, that is, this is the rear route, along

which they traveled without obstacles already on horseback. the drone, named shulyka, is very maneuverable, and therefore it will be difficult for the enemy to neutralize it, thanks to the maneuverability of our drone, you can maneuver between plantations at a very low altitude, you can walk right between the trees, each crew member has his own role, and the pilot is like the conductor of this orchestra, according to this, how organized this orchestra is, so cool the side flies away, almost 70. manufacturers of such drones gave the guys to the front, the reviews are mostly positive, very resistant to the enemy, and in practice it has already shown two destroyed field 21, this is an enemy rap that covers all our fpivishkas, stanislav and oksana manage every month

to collect for three dozen such kamikazes, in order to start production, they spent all their savings, engaged in a completely different business, it was quite, financially capable, normal. there were preservations and all their preservations were invested in it, then there are patrons, volunteers, and just people who want to help our fighters, and we see how much easier it is when you don’t throw 100 people under a tank and they can’t shoot it with those automatic weapons , and when the question arises, what would a drone like this shulika, for example, fly out and destroy a tank with, now our heroes are going through all the necessary legal processes. if their production were partially financed by the state, then the volumes would be much larger. now we are going through this path of certification, we have already made combat applications, we have already flown under our rebo very successfully. according to the indicators, shulik's drone does not lose to the russian lancet,

the manufacturers emphasize, although the combat part of these enemy drones is more powerful. the lancets have now generally been given the most modern warheads. such as the counterpart to those used on javelins. russia is actively engaged in it researches, sees our results and instantly copies and scales them. however, we are not standing still, new and new developments are appearing in ukraine. here is footage of a new strike drone that can penetrate several thick armor plates at once. another ukrainian kamikaze drone, which is even better than the iranian shakhet and capable of traveling 1,000 km, has already been put on the assembly line. the fact that we have our own long-range drone gives us the opportunity for our armed forces, our special operations forces, our special forces, to show new videos, more often when we

we will wake up every morning because we will see that moscow is neverslis, sochirs, other cities are not true, so we are working to ensure that our rural defense... there were more such tools, the russians have been preparing, developing and investing in air defense systems for many years, we essentially have a market opened powerfully last year, and now we have a market economy, many companies are emerging, we will definitely be able, not only to catch up with the russians, but if we continue at this pace, and produce more uavs, increase the production of drones, increase financial support manufacturers from the side of the state, to attract foreign partners - the task that officials are currently facing, and which must be solved as soon as possible, so that our defenders are even more active in destroying russian warehouses. supplies and enemy equipment, destroyed ships and got the invaders out of deep trenches.

mykhailo maneliuk, volodymyr samchenko, yevhen kaminsky, details, intermarathon tv channel, single news. russia blocks the exchange of prisoners of war. for the fourth month already, ukrainian defenders have no chance to return home. at the same time, prisoners there are so many enemies in ukraine that new camps have to be set up. is the ukrainian side ready to exchange which... russians, and how many ukrainians still remain with the prisoner kharefia? iryna markiv researched the topic. we hope that our boys' lives will be saved. among them are seriously wounded. ukraine needs ukrainian heroes alive. the operation to rescue the defenders of mariupla was launched by our military. a year and a half has passed since the operation to save the indomitable defenders of mariupol. by order of the supreme military command in may 2022. more than 2,500 ukrainian soldiers were evacuated to russian captivity during the uprising, victoria's brother

was among them. my brother was 25 years old this september, this is already his second birthday, when we, when he is there in captivity , i, his sister, his fiancée, and parents are waiting for him here, 25-year-old oleksandr, military personnel, junior lieutenant, in one and a half a month before a full-scale invasion. joined the lavra defense, already in february he became part of the mariupol garrison, it was his decision, i wanted to influence it, i did not want him to go to this area, he wanted he really wanted, 86 days of the siege of mariupol, heavy battles, blockade, evacuation, the brother does not get in touch, and here is alexander in the russian lists of prisoners of war, where, in olenivka, where the russians... committed a terrorist attack, he was not there in this barrack, he was in another, and everything is fine with him, then we were already

told, he got in touch, he wrote that everything is fine with me, this was the last and only contact with my brother during the captivity, at the moment, alexander's family only knows about the boy that he suffered a coccyx injury and a contusion, the defender's condition is unknown, and we are all already we saw on the example of large exchanges, when commanders were changed, we saw that there is no... it is not possible, i want to wait for my brother and see him alive. 4,337 citizens of ukraine are still in russian captivity, the lion's share of whom are ukrainian military personnel. we are talking about those who were able to be established, according to the latest data of the ministry of reintegration. on august 7 this year, an extreme exchange of prisoners of war took place. thanks to our guys, i came back from hell, from this captivity. i just thank everyone, love everyone, kiss everyone. glory ukraine. since then, exchanges have been suspended. russia effectively froze the process.

a full-scale war is underway, and we are dealing with an aggressor who often disregards international law and the geneva conventions. this also applies to interaction with the red cross, the international committee of the red cross and the access of international representatives to places of detention of ukrainian prisoners of war. nevertheless, the negotiations did not stop all this time. pressure and destabilization. population, the main goal of the russians - says political scientist taras zahorodniy. russians know that ukrainians are very value their soldiers, value the life of every person , and therefore always try to play on these feelings, especially since all countries and around the world know what terrible conditions prisoners of war are kept in, so they use it as a lever of influence on ukraine, and also neglect interests of their own citizens. the russian federation is not

interested in the fate of its prisoners, therefore it delays the exchange and creates various obstacles, according to the coordination headquarters for the treatment of prisoners of war. despite the statement of the minister of war of russia shuigu, which one exactly at the end of the summer, he named one of the main tasks of the svo to liberate not ukrainian territories, but russian soldiers from captivity. priority humanitarian tasks, military operations. the release of russian servicemen from ukrainian captivity. they throw their soldiers without armored vehicles, the so-called meat assaults, of course, that this is a work for the domestic audience of the russian federation. meanwhile, ukraine is running out of places to receive russian prisoners. currently , there is a question of expanding their number. we can confirm that since the beginning of summer the number of russian occupiers who fell into ukrainian captivity, both captured by our defenders and those who

voluntarily surrendered, either directly on the front line or through the project... there was a need to create a new detention camp for russian prisoners of war, there will be more one big camp. according to deputy minister of justice olena vysotska, at the beginning of the full-scale war in ukraine there were no suitable specially created places for receiving prisoners of war, and in accordance with the requirements of the geneva convention, the standards of keeping prisoners of military formations of another country should be higher than for prisoners. we managed to create, despite the parallel leads. of active hostilities with the beginning of a full-scale invasion , the day somewhere around the summer of the 22nd year, we already had a camp that met the requirements of the geneva convention, which stipulates that a camp should be established in the deep rear zone. currently , they are already working on creating a second such camp, not a basement, bright, spacious rooms,

full three-time meals, full medical care, books, internet, all the necessary... household items , and the captured enemies have jobs, work six days a week, get paid, and no matter how hard it is, we have to think about whether russia fulfills its obligations , well, similar, in relation to our prisoners of war, we focused precisely on fulfilling all the requirements, showing the whole world that we are a european civilized country, i am convinced, i am personally convinced, that our conditions, when we... introduced to a high standard, they still raise the level, which russia provides to our captives, because if they had seen torture or cellars, raw, cold and so on, it would have been even more difficult for our soldiers in captivity.

in general, during the full-scale war, about fifty exchanges of prisoners of war took place, more than 2,500 ukrainians managed to return home from russian captivity iryna markiv, gennadiy annikeyenko, details, tv channel inter, the only news israel and hamas agreed on a four-day truce for the exchange of prisoners, during this of time the population of the gas sector should receive humanitarian aid. the militants are supposed to release 50 prisoners, the israelis supposedly 150. however, the numbers can still change. the four-day truce will be the first in a conflict that has lasted more than seven weeks and is due to begin tomorrow at. a.m. the first hostages will begin to be released around 16. such data are called in the boat. in israel, too, they say that the parties will cease fire no earlier than friday morning. the names of the hostages who are being prepared for exchange are not published, so as not to disappoint their relatives in the event that the deal suddenly fails. in the meantime, there is a lot to exchange

families of prisoners from both sides hope. my 13-year-old granddaughter is in trouble. in the gas, i'm with her in that tunnel, we're all with her , i can't eat because i know gali can't eat and i can't breathe because i know she can't breathe when i go to bed at night , i say to myself, i can sleep in a bed with a clean sheet, and where is she now, i was up until two in the morning waiting for news about the exchange and sleep without hope, yesterday they called me and said that they have a deal, but i was waiting in the military offices for sure i knew that there is a real agreement, i hope that it will happen and nothing will break it, the middle east and ukraine are on the agenda, the leaders of the g20 countries held an online meeting the day before, it was organized by india, the day before just to hand over its chairmanship in the g20.

our special correspondent in the united states , dmytro anopchenko, tells us what the main discussions were, topics for the discussion and how relevant the ukrainian issue was during it, he is in direct contact from washington. so dimo, congratulations, we are waiting for you do you have details the bad meeting was indeed a virtual one, because india in the last days, the last days before handing over the presidency to brazil, scheduled another meeting, it is clear that no one could have gathered in person, but they agreed to talk virtually, too, even virtually they could not join biden and xi, however, unlike them, all the rest were present, and this is a very large level of representation, they talked, of course, and expectedly, about the situation in the middle east, and most importantly, as indian diplomats are now reporting, they tried agree, and what should the 20s do so that the conflict between palestine and israel does not spill over, or into this region, or does not become

a full-scale war, and here is an interesting moment, everyone supported, in particular the united states, supported the plan, which is not less should preserve this system, this scheme, when there are two states on this land, on this territory, when there is israel, there is palestine, despite the fact that a lot is said... about the middle east, and you know, very often in the yellow press they write that the supposedly near east can betray ukraine from agenda, nothing like that, well, in particular, german chancellor olaf scholz personally, when he went to the press after this online meeting, said that he was talking about ukraine in particular, and he, taking advantage of the fact that putin was virtually present at the meeting, was addressing specifically , to him personally, the fact is that for many years in his twenties, instead of putin, he always... mr. lavrov, well, now for the first time, and in particular for the first time since the beginning of a full-scale war, putin joined via video link, and it was scholz, like him said, said, and so that putin

told him in his eyes about the need to end the war, and how, as he said, indicated the need for a just and long-term peace in ukraine, and here the attention, based on the principles of the un charter, in other words, on the basis that there cannot be any territorial concession, well, let's listen to how the chancellor himself explains what he is saying, please, direct speech. it was important for me to use a good opportunity for all of us to clearly state that ukraine is under attack because it was russia that attacked it, and russia can easily to end the war by simply withdrawing our troops, and we and others have clearly spoken about this, and it is interesting that putin had to listen to all this. scholza, he went to the press together with... the prime minister , with whom he was just conducting negotiations at this moment, said that everyone agreed, and this is clear, and this is a clear, unequivocal position, he will also quote that we will support ukraine for so long , as it will

be necessary, and he also informed that the allies had just agreed on a program to support ukraine and, in particular, this is important, a program to support the economy, and so what happening now, because the congressional package is stuck here a little bit, congressmen plan to consider it only in the second half, maybe. even at the end of december , both the european allies and the american administration are looking for other sources to ensure that the financing of ukraine is continuous, well, here are literally several examples, in particular, just today's news reports that ukraine received about 400 million dollars from the world bank and under uk guarantees, and you know, this is money that can support the economy, that should support it economy, precisely because, in particular, the money is earmarked, it will go to the budget, and ukraine, as i understand it, will also finance pensions and payments, in particular to medical workers , well, let's be honest, it's not free, it's a loan, however, it's a loan,

which was given for 19 years, under favorable conditions, at absolutely symbolic interest, well, there are others , for example, also one example, the press service of the state department reports that the g7 countries, and the meeting of their foreign ministers, also took place virtually on the eve of the velikoitka meeting , exactly agreed: to continue to support the energy sector of ukraine and made a commitment, i will also quote here, regarding the protection of the existing energy infrastructure and assistance in humanitarian demining, so that there was an opportunity to carry out repairs without hindrance and safely. colleagues, kyiv. dimo, thank you very much, i will remind you that our own correspondent in the united states, dmytro anopchenko, was in touch with the studio. without the world. support, our energy sector will not do without the ukrainian government, they do not hide it, obviously this winter will be no less energetically more complex than the previous one, because

the aggressor country has not given up its plans to destroy our energy system, so they are looking for opportunities to additionally protect it. so, whether we will have light and heat in winter and what kind of help international partners offer us, this will be discussed further in olga zhydetska's article. fighters of mobile pppo units are training to shoot down enemy targets. the focus is on the protection of energy facilities. if we take exactly our direction, then they are launching a little less now, i think that they are accumulating strength and then massively will be the ministry of energy agrees with this forecast, its head, herman gallushchenko , says that invaders target energy infrastructure facilities every day. but ukraine today has a much more powerful air defense system, although there have not yet been truly massive attacks like last year. but the minister is sure that the russians will still try

to play last year's trick. in fact, i think that the attack strategy of the future, it will not be much different from the past earth. moros, he adds more damage, yes, he can add damage to the hit, that is, well, it's simple many factors, so i think that it is they who will focus on attacks during stable minus temperatures, the minister says, that year the attacks of russian terrorists suffered almost on the ukrainian energy system. during the warm period, repairmen tried to restore the damaged infrastructure as much as possible and prepare it for winter. the main task is to ensure energy generation that covers the country's needs and to have a certain reserve in case of an emergency. we have almost 16 billion cubic meters of gas in our warehouses, coal reserves of warehouses of 1.1 million tons, we continue repairs and protection of key energy nodes. we have already

managed to restore almost 1.9 g of generating capacity, by the end of the year it is planned to restore another 1.3 g of additional capacity. nuclear generation works, thermal generation works, hydropower works. the first month of the heating season in ukraine was stable. while there was a plus outside the window, ukrainians actually did not experience any problems, but the day before, due to the cold weather, ukrenergo reported a deficit in the energy supply. because of this, at peak three evening hours. was not involved imports from poland, slovakia and romania, however, the ministry still hopes that blackouts will be avoided, although they have a plan b with shutdown schedules, they are developed, moreover, appropriate training took place in all regions, from the point of view of how each should act and a specific area or each specific region in the case of applying schedules, they have been proven by everyone, and definitely everyone knows how

to apply these schedules, the key is also what we learned from last winter, when we worked out and developed such schedules still with maximum justice. meanwhile, the government is working with international partners to clean up the ukrainian energy sector. the energy support fund of ukraine, which is filled by donors, has already reached more than 320 million euros. the day before, at an online meeting dedicated to the protection of the ukrainian energy system. the leaders of the ministry of health of the big seven, the participants pledged to help in the future. in particular , it was about the provision of critical equipment such as high-voltage transformers and emergency backup power supply systems. minister of foreign affairs dmytro kuleba thanked the partners for the opportunity to prepare for winter much better than last year and reminded about the main priority of air defense for ukraine. strengthening air defenses is the best way

to prevent further damage to ours. energetic we are grateful to our partners for the assistance already provided, and we count on a further increase in the number of anti- aircraft missile complexes, anti-drone systems, electronic warfare equipment and ammunition for air defense. in addition to urgent needs, ukraine speaks and about prospects. in particular, at the meeting of the g7 plus ministers, dmytro kuleba emphasized that in the future ukraine intends to fully integrate into the eu energy market and create a sustainable energy system based, in particular , on renewable energy sources. such aspirations of kyiv are highly appreciated in washington. the determination of the ukrainian people to restore better work and ensure the future energy system is very impressive. ukraine is investing in this, which is fully consistent with its expectation to become a member of the european union. that's why i and all of us in the administration were happy to see clear signals from eu president vonderlein regarding the accession processes of ukraine and moldova to the eu, and we will be partners in

these efforts. at every step, interest in the future of the ukrainian energy industry is now an important trend, and this was shown by the conference held the day before in poland, where a number of foreign companies confirmed their plans not only to help now, but also to cooperate with the ukrainian energy industry after the victory. olga zhydetska, details, inter tv channel, single news marathon. air shield to protect ukrainian energy facilities. this is one of the main topics of the regular 17th meeting. of the contact group on the defense of ukraine in the ramshtein format. this time the consultations took place online. see what the heads of defense agencies from more than 50 countries of the world agreed on in our next article. defense ministers from more than 50 countries are in touch. the already traditional monthly meeting of the contact group on defense of ukraine was held in video format this time. as usual, the opening speech was taken by the presiding minister of defense of the usa, lloyd. and

through this extraordinary group.
