trying to enter the city, they do not succeed in taking control of koksokhim, it stands as an indestructible wall, but nevertheless, they try to bypass it from the flanks, and attack the steppe village, which is not far away, or in order to cut off the roads and supplies to our troops, but so far they have not managed to do it, well, we worked in this direction and the military showed us an incredibly large cemetery of equipment that remained after the previous assaults of the occupiers, because everything that goes to our soldiers, they burn it to pieces, we also became witnesses unique: aerial combat, when our fighters covered our infantry in the avdiiv direction, and i ask you to see what the war is like on this part of the front, further our report. a couple of ukrainian bombers are flying over our heads right now. su-25 attack helicopters enter a bend over the ukrainian donetsk region, their task is to support the ground forces in battle. the speed

of the attack aircraft is almost 1000 km/h, but still their maneuvers are seen by the russian anti-aircraft defense. the dryers enter the second circle and a russian rocket is coming after them, but it detonates in the sky, as evidenced by white smoke. the occupiers did not succeed in suppressing any assembly. closer to the contact line, the sky is still alive, we hear an enemy drone. eagle, eagle, eagle, everything, i see. this is a russian reconnaissance drone circling. the weather is sunny, so even at a considerable height it is easily fixed on. the camera and, of course, the army pppo. the russians are scouting the territory, preparing for another wave of assaults on the outskirts of donetsk, the army says. there, our intelligence recorded a large accumulation of equipment. there is information that indeed in the district of donetsk, deposits are still accumulating means and forces for the third wave. for our part, we are also taking measures and preparing. the occupiers defended their positions with a considerable line of defense, the so-called surovykin line, oleksandr shows us.

our reconnaissance drone maneuvers anti-tank ditches around it to make it harder for tanks to pass through, it's hard to see, here they also use these raw teeth, well, their nanotechnology triangles are shorter than concrete and will help them a lot against tanks. this area is closely monitored by the military of the 59th brigade named after yakov handyuk, because it is this road south of donetsk was one of the directions of the breakthrough to avdiivka. instead, the entire column of equipment, and it was 15 units, which advanced to our positions and is still here on... up to above the scrap metal, drove straight through the urals, tanks, armored personnel carriers, a very large column was moving, as you can see, the line passed and it landed. and they went through it , did not go straight to us, in the frontal area stupidly, not a single box reached its goal, all the other boxes, when they were all, well, torn apart, blown up, some simply dropped the equipment and fled on foot, or what kind of equipment, then it was achieved with drones, resets. it's good from here

high-rise buildings on the outskirts of donetsk can be seen, which have not been inhabited for a long time. back in 2014, there was a considerable russian enclave near them, the military says, and from there they can move again to eventually surround avdiivka. so the fighters gather in position, because their task is to cover the flank of the war-torn city. yuliya krienko, danylo lysenko, oleg mostovy tsn 1.1 marathon only news. a man died due to russian shelling in the village of tyaginka in the kherson region. during the survey of the landing sites, rescuers found a body in the destroyed house local resident an 81-year-old woman who was in her own house at the time of the attack was also wounded by enemy fire. she was hospitalized with contusion and blast injury. another projectile also hit the cultural center. another wounded woman in the village of ivanivka. in the morning , the russians struck kupyan district of kharkiv region with artillery. in the village of kivsharivka , infrastructure and residential buildings and an educational institution were damaged. in addition, the enemy

also set fire to the city of vovchansk, where several shops and two local houses were destroyed. the russians also fired at 23 populated areas of zaporozhye per day. robotyn and temyrivka were attacked with multiple rocket launchers. the field of meadows is walking and sheltered by artillery drones. in general, the enemy hit the front-line towns and villages more than one and a half hundred times. he built residential buildings. the ukrainian authorities expected faster results from the summer counteroffensive, but this was not achieved. president volodymyr zelenskyi said this in an interview with the associated press agency. the head of state explained that ukraine did not receive all the necessary weapons, and this prevented the rapid promotion. there is not enough strength to achieve the desired results faster, but this does not mean that we should give up, - said zelensky. however , he is satisfied with the results of the counteroffensive, if only because the defense forces are not retreating. under the russian onslaught, but

during yesterday's trip to the regions with the participation of the president, two meetings were held, one operational regarding the situation at the front, and the second, regarding fortification, in those areas where it is worth... strengthening, the construction of defense structures should be accelerated , talked about it and with local authorities, how to attract the necessary resources for fortification. well, measures to unblock the border are currently being worked out by ukrainian and polish officials, in particular, it is about opening a checkpoint near dolgobychevo greens for the passage of empty trucks. there is also a queue in the system, for these cars they are ready to allocate an additional lane on yagodina and krakówka korchova. it is also about the launch of a pilot... project with registration in the e-queue before crossing the border at the nezhankovichi malhovice checkpoint . the situation on the border is extremely tense. the blockade has been going on for almost a month. in lviv oblast and volyn, polish strikers are blocking the movement of ukrainian trucks at

four checkpoints. exhausted drivers, who have been living in the field all this time, today even announced their intention to start a hunger strike. meanwhile, slovakia joined the polish strikers. from today. they block traffic at the vyshny niemetske checkpoint. tsn correspondent svitlana denischuk is currently on duty there in the lviv region, where thousands of trucks are waiting. marichka kuzhik and her first word. marichko ukrainian drivers tried to talk to polish strikers today. what came of it, did you agree on something? greetings, hello, colleagues, i am now at the ukrainian-polish border and the kraków checkpoint. and on the other side , almost 2,000 of our trucks really got stuck in the polska korchov, and the drivers got impatient in the middle of the field, many of them have been sitting for almost a month, now the ukrainian transporters decided to go to the polish strikers to talk face to face. several hundred drivers walked through

the fields from the parking lots to the border, which is 5-6 km, however, the police fired at them in the field and did not let them go any further. we gathered in two parking lots, we came from the a4 parking lot, there are still guys here, they approached us from the parking lot from the 94th road, but we did not reach the protesters because the police blocked us, now the polish strikers are delaying even humanitarian cargo, as well dangerous and perishable, although at the beginning of the blockade they assured that such trucks would be allowed out of the queue, international charitable funds that provide aid to ukrainians cannot deliver because cargo border, we contacted the head of one such organization from germany. he left on monday, and on wednesday we received a call that he could not cross the border. for many months after the start of the war, the poles

said that the germans were not doing anything for ukraine, but for the ukrainians, the poles were like brothers and sisters, and at the beginning they did everything they could, but now it seems that money is becoming more important. all the machines are without fuel, the machines are frozen, the products are spoiling, there is nothing to help the sales of the products, the guys have nothing in reality, there is nothing to warm the cars, people do not sleep in cars, people warm themselves by the fire, a journalist from channel 1.1 came to us again , as i understood, but later two ukrainian drivers were let in by the police to the polish protesters, it was not possible to come to an agreement, so the ukrainian carriers spoke up about... if you support it, then we declare a hunger strike, officially, officially refuse humanitarian aid and fight to increase the throughput of vehicles yes in hours, that's how the police,

the situation has moved from place to place when we arrived representatives of the ukrainian consulate, they talked with the polish strikers and apparently reached a certain consensus. we achieved such changes that in an hour seven cars leave from one parking lot, seven cars from the second parking lot, humanitarian cargo goes to without restrictions, humanitarian cargo goes without queues, without restrictions, until sunday until 12 noon, there will be some further of them meetings, and after that there will be, maybe some other changes. while the ukrainian drivers have gone to their trucks in the parking lots and are waiting to see if the poles will fulfill this agreement, let me remind you that polish carriers have announced a border blockade due to what they say is excessive competition, they are demanding the return of special permits for ukrainians to enter europe, and they are also

asking for a separate queue for trucks with eu license plates and for their empty vans. my colleague svitlana denischuk will tell us that starting today, the movement of ukrainian trucks is also being blocked by slovak carriers, what they want and whether... someone is being let through. greetings colleagues, now we are at the vyshne-nyamitske uzhhorod crossing point, which slovak carrier to block. started today at 3:00 p.m slovak time, their demands are the same as those of the polish protesters, the slovaks are releasing trucks with humanitarian aid, in addition, commercial goods are also allowed to cross the border, but only four truckloads per hour. despite this, i must say, the line moves very slowly, in more than three hours of our work at the border, we met only four truck drivers who managed to return to ukraine. as of the 16th, slovak colleagues informed us about the beginning of the blocking, which is carried out by representatives of the slovak

transport unions, according to their warning, will block the movement of all vehicles, except for humanitarian aid, fuel, other important cargoes, and allow four trucks per hour. despite the fact that the ukrainian-slovak border has been blocked only since today, transporters are waiting to cross it... a few girls each, many of them came here after weeks of downtime in poland, now the queue on the slovak side has stretched for 20 km, with more than half a thousand trucks , and almost a thousand more are waiting at the ukrainian-hungarian crossing point zahonchop there are five checkpoints on the ukrainian-slovak border, but the high german uzhgorod is the only one where trucks can go. ukrainian truck drivers who are currently heading to slovakia are confused by the development of affairs, they say they are forced to go, but they do not know how they will return. somehow we will try to go back, i don’t know where , maybe we will go, we don’t know anything yet, and we

are going to england, we still have a long way to go, maybe something will change in two weeks, while we are going back, the crossing point of cherry trees in german is uzhgorod, the protesters tried to block as recently as last week, but then the union of motor carriers of slovakia questioned its involvement in this, and the strikers dispersed within a few hours, now they say that they analyzed their transport market and decided that it was suffering due to competition from our carriers consider such accusations unfair. for any competition, they bring their game to theirs, that's all. what is the competition, i don't think there is any competition for them. uzhhorod has become the fifth blocked crossing point for the german offensive ukrainian trucks, and this, according to experts, can provoke an even greater jump in prices in ukraine. goods that failed to cross the polish border were directed by carriers to. nowadays, drivers will have to cover an even longer distance to get to the romanian or hungarian

borders, which means that the cost of transportation will increase. studio. thank you, colleagues, so we will continue to monitor events, ktsn correspondent marichka kuzhik and svitlana denischuk, about the situation on the borders of ukraine with poland, where the economic blockade of checkpoints continues and with slovakia, the polish strikers were joined by local carriers today. thank you. they were not released abroad. petro poroshenko complained today and posted a video of how the border guards refuse him to leave. the people's deputy referred to the delegation signed by the head of the supreme council of ukraine. he explained that he had important meetings in the united states and in poland, but the border guards were guided by the fact that this business trip was canceled. later, deputy speaker of the parliament oleksandr kornienko explained that it was he who canceled the business trip people's deputy poroshenko, on november 29. the speaker of the verkhovna rada, stefanchuk , is currently on a business trip, so he signed these papers. his deputy, despite the ban on traveling abroad for people's elected officials, they can

temporarily leave ukraine to carry out their parliamentary activities, for this they need approval, as for petro poroshenko, his business trip was canceled after a letter with a stamp for official use was received by the parliament . kornienko says that he cannot divulge the content of this letter , it is in my hands, and he sees it, there is order of the head. for a business trip, on the basis of this order, i have planned the implementation of state events in the form of bilateral and multilateral meetings. according to our internal documents, internal principles, it is allowed to participate in party events, but when the dsk letter arrived, which i cannot comment on, accordingly, we were forced to ... the forces represented in the parliament signed the day before. well, the osce continued its

existence at the price of a compromise with russia. to the ministerial meeting, which is because of this boycotted by high-ranking officials of ukraine, the baltic states, poland and a number of other european countries, for the first time in two years they invited the head of the russian foreign ministry, lavrov. his plane had to change course already in the air, bulgaria refused to let diplomats under sanctions pass. and although the majority of the osce members once again emphasized that russia should withdraw its troops from ukraine, the price of abandoning the boycott was the humiliating spread of russian propaganda narratives for democratic states. ktsn correspondent yana. more about this, thank you, master acting chairman, mrs. general secretary, as soon as the russian language begins to be heard in the skopje meeting hall, the ukrainian delegation leaves the room, supported by colleagues from other countries, but the prime minister of north macedonia insists that not even a handshake with his minister of foreign affairs lavrov, nor the negotiations on the sidelines

of russia's meetings with hungarian and armenian diplomats, on the contrary, undermine the osce's diplomatic position on russia. this is absolutely not a diplomatic victory for russia. this is diplomatic victory of the osce. the functioning of the osce was called into question. but this meeting confirms that the osce continues to exist. although the russian contingent of 80 diplomats was allowed to participate in the osce for the first time since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of ukraine by russia, the existence of the organization remained in great question until the last. the treacherous game of the russian government is to destroy organizations based on peaceful coexistence and cooperation with the help of a brutal war of aggression that russia is waging against ukraine. plenary meetings at the level of ministers of foreign affairs are held in the csto once a year in the state that presides over the organization. last year , the host of the summit was poland, so

there was no question of russian participation. but the kremlin prepared for the current meeting in advance, together with belarus by blocking the appointment of a new leader country, which was supposed to be estonia, because all decisions of the osce are made only unanimously. consensus is the cornerstone around which this organization is built. in the osce, there is no decision without consensus. therefore, first north macedonia, which decided nevertheless, allowing lavrov to the meeting in exchange for the fact that russia will not destroy the osce was supported by the european union. your decision to allow lavrov to take part in the meeting is in line with our common goal of maintaining multilateral relations, and lavrov must again hear from everyone why russia is being condemned and isolated. already on tuesday , the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine announced that he would boycott the meeting, dmytro koleba said this on the sidelines of negotiations with the eu and nato in brussels, from where he was supposed to lead diplomats

a separate charter to skopje, the baltic states and poland joined the kuleba first and announced it publicly. the foreign ministers of great britain, canada, italy, and belgium refused to visit north macedonia without a statement. united states secretary of state blinken arrived, but only for the evening, when lavov was not yet in north macedonia, and the head of european diplomacy boren canceled the trip at the last moment. however, this did not prevent russia and its few friends in the csto from promoting their propaganda. we hungarians do not want. so that more people die, and we convinced, dear friends, dear colleagues, that the supply of arms does not help, the supply of arms prolongs the war, we do not need war, we do not need arms in the region, we need peace in the region. and although 36 of the 57 states that are part of the osce, one by one, called on russia to immediately withdraw troops from ukraine,

irritating lavrov, who was given 15 minutes to speak instead of the allotted time according to the regulations. give me peace after the usual clichés of russian propaganda, the minister of foreign affairs of russia continued to blackmail the osce and declared that the organization would continue to be financed impractical in essence, the osce is being turned into an appendage of nato and the european union. the organization, let's face it, is on the brink of an abyss. sitting at the same table with him, lavrov tried to turn it into a moral victory for russia. my colleague, state secretary blinkin, ran away, but he did not run away. at least the osce manages to save face somehow. russia agrees to unblock key vote. all 57 countries have decided

to elect malta as the next state to preside over the csto, and this will allow. and although on the day lavrov openly mocked the cameras negotiations on the election of new high-ranking officials of the osce, at the final press conference , diplomats avoided the question of whether they would invite him to the meeting of the organization next year. our task is to end the war and for ukraine to regain its sovereign territories, and we still have 365 days to negotiate about it. therefore , for two days russia... was tolerated in skopje in order to save the life of an organization that is unable to perform its functions precisely because of the presence of russia in its composition, which since 2021 is blocking the approval of a new budget obsie, and today. it was also not possible to remove its veto, despite all the concessions to the kremlin. i am onas liserchuk, ihor kalyniuk, tsn. 1.1. marathon, only news. destroyed the enemy, his

equipment and even entire headquarters. drones are on the front lines, now for the ukrainian fighter both eyes and weapons, and most importantly - they save the lives of our soldiers. therefore, at the beginning of the full-scale invasion, not every ukrainian joined the gathering for drones, so that there would be more of them at the front. but unfortunately, there are some. who are trying to get rich on this help, almost six hundred drones that did not get to the front line, more than 2 million dollars that disappeared and hundreds of injured volunteers and statements to the police, this is the end of the story, which will be told by the correspondent of tsn, oleksandr romaniuk, nine drones have not passed, in my case it was only one drone, two drones, it's two mavik3 fms. oksana, elizaveta and ramina are volunteers who ordered drones for the military, but never received them. the situation is the same for hundreds of other people in different parts of ukraine. all are united by one fact: they bought drones from fob matyakin,

the main protagonist of this story. at the beginning of the summer of 2023, volunteers say, a new company appeared on the market that brought drones for fighters. the prices were slightly below the market, the payment details are official. moreover, the company even won. tenders that were successfully fulfilled, this fob really brought drones at the same prices, good enough, and fulfilled its obligations for several months, i ordered one drone at the end of july and in 10 days i received it. information about reliable supplier spread among the military and volunteers, because many relationships in helping the ukrainian army are based on trust and recommendations. this is how volunteer anisa akan learned about propmattyakina. at first, she made several successful orders herself, gave the company to others, and then fop representatives offered her to join and help with the processing of purchases, because they said that they could not accept such

a large number of volunteers . i was like a contact person it was possible to place an order, i asked for an invoice, forwarded it to people, then accompanied their order. there were more than a thousand successful orders through ani alone, in total. foptyakina allegedly supplied more than 5,000 drones, but we cannot verify this information. new clients came to the company one after another, not least thanks to the trust in the volunteers. most of the buyers were certain that they were the ones behind the company, although the funds were always going to the accounts of fop matyakin. moreover, payment for the drones also went to several other companies cryptocurrencies, cash, and through electronic systems. however , no one had any doubts or suspicions, because the drones came and that's how it went... volunteer purchases often work, the process continued until the end of the summer, when the deliveries began to be delayed. two drones

were issued to oksana borysiuk almost two months after the order. while i was waiting for this drone , i ordered nine drones for the trip, they were already at the expense of the military and volunteers, because these military, whom i help, because they asked if it was possible to order more, they collected the funds, part of the money was their personal . these nine drones cost. 65,000, she is still waiting, another volunteer, elizaveta kanevska, ordered a drone for uah 2,000 for her friend's father at the expense of a charity fund, its delivery was delayed allegedly due to problems at customs, later a new version appeared that there were serious problems at customs, and drones, the batch will return to poland and it will be possible to get them in poland from the warehouse. elizaveta was ready to pick up the drones herself, but later it turned out that there were none in poland either, since all the buyers did not communicate with each other, and then guessed that the problem was massive, but at the same time, matyakin’s fop was accepting orders properly,

supply interruptions began already in august, this did not become known to those volunteers, for example, with whom i communicate and others, because drones were issued to some as early as mid-september, to others it was no longer issued in august, for example, i made the payment in october, later anisa akan, who helped to process the order, wrote a post that her name could have been used in a fraudulent scheme. i tried to help the delivery in every possible way, and then i was introduced to another, and i i also pass this information on to people, it turns out that they lead me down, in short, everyone, but since many of the customers there had contact only with me, they have complaints against me. the buyers united in a group and it turned out that as of november foptyakina had not delivered more than six hundred drones worth more than 2 million dollars. part of these funds was official. was transferred to fop's accounts, others were transferred in cash, credit, etc., however, this amount may not be final, because the victims are constantly added. there are three people behind fop matyakin,

its owner olesya matyakina, who has been living abroad for a long time, entrepreneurs iryna prystupa and nazar tkachenko, who accepted orders on behalf of foku . , he allegedly accepted an order from the company for a large batch of drones and was unable to bring it to ukraine, the money was withdrawn to his cryptocurrency account, and he himself paid the distributor, who has not returned it for a week, no connection, 2 million dollars. there are so many versions of who is with him agreed, and how he paid, for all the participants, cases differ. we contacted the owner of fop olesya matyakina, she claims that she had nothing to do with the purchase of drones at all. she transferred the rights to use fop for a small percentage of the profit to two of her friends, other participants in the case, iryna prystupa and nazar tkachenko. for delivery, for

pickup. to send documents , including financial ones, i called regularly, asked how things are, everything is good, everything is good, we are working, shipments, everything is good, i do not consider myself guilty of words at all, because that i did not communicate with clients, and not with exhibitors, in volyn we also found iryna prystupa, she is an entrepreneur, she says that she really cooperated with olesya matyakina, but was only a manager, her version, she accepted orders from people, transferred money to fop's account . and gave out drones, i heard on the news that there were authorizations for the use of the fop, that the fop was rented, no, this is not true , i did not have a mandate for the use of the fop, and as far as i know, no one did, i am in this situation innocent, they ordered through me people, i personally gave money to my studios there in kovel, but i did not take the money, we tried

to communicate with the entrepreneur nazar and to whose accounts the buyers also transferred funds and who communicated with them. they arranged a meeting on the volunteer's phone. later he refused and stopped answering calls. none of the participants in the case showed a clear document about the existence of the delivery or receipts where the money was withdrawn. so buyers are already in doubt whether centralized batches of drones ever existed. it turned out that even earlier, fop bought part of the drones from ukrainian companies are more expensive than the buyers paid for them, also fop representatives sent victims photos of fake invoices. these drones, they were delivered to recipients by taxi, new mail, but there is not a single person who would go to some mythical warehouse, get these drones and say hello, i took these drones from the warehouse. in the main investigative department of the police, they say that this is how financial pyramids often look, this is when the goods are initially sold at a relatively low price, working for themselves

minus, earn a reputation, then with they show that they are able to work with some large batches of goods, at the same time they cannot confirm from whom they buy, for what funds they are going to deliver the goods there, and what logistics schemes they have there. fd representatives promise to develop a compensation plan for the victims, some of the volunteers have already received their funds. olesya matyakina says that these are her own savings, but to return them. the amount is slightly more than 4 million hryvnias, ten times less than the missing 2 million dollars. what their will return voluntarily, i do not believe, but i really hope that the police can make us pay them back. currently , statements have already been written to dozens of police departments by the federal bureau of investigation, olesya matyakina, iryna prystupa, and nazar tkachenko.
