, several metro stations in kyiv have been closed due to depressurization of the tunnel and the appearance of cracks in the walls. they refused. from beautiful dresses and expensive suits, photo and video shoots, to purchase drones for defenders. many students of the fourth, ninth and 11th grades in different parts of ukraine will not celebrate graduation. all for the sake of helping the army. how did the people of bilotserki join such an initiative. let's see in the plot. without expensive dresses and suits, hairstyles, bouquets and celebrations in a restaurant. instead, on the saved funds were purchased by the military. three fpv drones. such an initiative was shown by the graduates of the ninth grade, the first of the bilotserkiv gymnasium on the day of the last bell. as one of the students sofia says, everyone supported the charity, because they believe that even small steps should bring

victory closer. they saw that people are joining in, that our parents and children are giving money together and want to help. then our school had to organize a charity fair. and we asked to take a certain amount of money to the schools at this fair, and the school to us also helped to buy a third drone for our defenders. in total, the schoolchildren managed to collect uah 42, and were more than satisfied. their goal is to help their native 72nd brigade named after the black zaporozhets. the drones were handed to the father of a classmate, who is fighting at the front. children believe that such a gift will surely destroy the enemy's equipment. of course, they wanted to have some kind of graduation, because the ninth grade, many of them leave for other educational institutions, but, well, it was a good proposal, in our opinion, and we all unequivocally supported it, and dropped it again who can as much as possible, because this is a very important matter in our time. the young

volunteers handed over the drones after the festive parade, and they all signed the flag for the defenders together. this was the wish of the military, and in principle we understood... the most optimal option is drones. the class teacher of the ninth grade is also proud of such an act. she says that her students have always been patriotic. mainly, there are girls in my class and quite such, conscious, patriotic children with a patriotic attitude, well, it is really growing a worthy generation of young ukrainians who will protect our ukraine forever, and will never remain aloof from our troubles, because we all live in difficult times during the war. regarding the fact that the girls decided to gather for drones, well, in general, i very much support this decision, because our class was chosen in such a way that quite a few children from our class have parents who are either fighting at the front or in the rear of the armed

forces , and one way or another they indirectly feel all these consequences, the negative consequences of war. on himself, on his own personalities in turn, black zaporizhia thanked the graduates and noted that with such a rising generation, they are confident in our future and victory. lyubov gerrashchenko, oleksandr kuga, espresso, bila tserkva. to live in spite of pain and fear, when there is war in the houses. the song of the israeli participant at eurovision was translated into ukrainian and caver was released on the network. let's listen. my house was on fire from the february cold, we prayed as much as we could, and learned to live in spite of hardship and fear. someone warm to me. the county roared forward, anger turned into singing, although it is true scattered on chats, that's how things are at the

moment, i'll see you at 5 p.m., marta oliyarnyk and antin burkovskyi are working on espresso. american university kyiv has started recruitment for master's degrees in management, business and it. the educational institution says that they are eagerly waiting for new students and emphasize that the acceptance of documents will continue until the end of august this year. one of the most interesting advantages we offer for the master's program is the double degree. because our curriculum is in sync with arizona's state university, our partner and leader

in the field of technology, our students can choose a double degree, one from arizona state university and the other from american university kyiv. the university says that one of the main reasons for pride is the internship. starting in the summer of 2024 , students have a unique opportunity to complete paid internships in american companies. o. online or directly in the usa. this gives students a competitive advantage on the labor market in the future. all costs for travel, visa and accommodation in the united states states are covered by employers. in addition, students will receive a salary. we are a private university where tuition is paid. however, we also provide not only knowledge and skills that will allow you to build a long-term, successful career in the chosen field, but also help. students to find a job for the summer, the payment of which will be more than enough to cover the year of study with us.

this is also part of the american approach. according to the rector of the university, it is important for them that students feel free and can study from anywhere in ukraine and the world. another great advantage of our institution is the learning management system. most of our classes are available online in digital form. and it provides flexible opportunities for working students who sometimes don't have time to visit campus and attend classes. the university began operations three weeks before the full-scale invasion, but has continued to operate despite the ordeal and is starting new enrollment for master's programs. the information day of tv channel 13 continues. we inform about everything the most important thing is that an extremely important conference is going on in berlin, the president of ukraine

addressed the bundestag, but the key story is the front line and the provision of our military and our civilians, so we understand that we managed to get a promise from germany to help us with another battery of patriots, about this and about other things , oleg katkov, military expert, chief editor of defense express. glory to ukraine, sir. this is extremely important, the german chancellor also promised to help us with additional air defense systems, in particular, it is about irst and cheetahs and on, on, on down the list, well , let's carefully study what germany will promise to supply us and what it will supply us in reality, but there is one more good news, so to speak with a german accent...tal opens and has already opened a factory in ukraine,

maybe you have some additional interesting information, well, a year ago we started talking about the opening of the rheinmetall plant, and now it’s as if we are already reaching the finish line, well, not the plant, in fact we are talking about the workshop, or as the representatives of the general staff called it namely. ukraine, they they called it a service center, well, you have to understand that between, beech, you just have to understand that every path, it starts with a step, the first step, and this step... the first one is probably always the most difficult and this is the process that is happening right now , that is , it was indeed announced a year ago that rain metal was entering ukraine, at the same time, the joint venture with rain metal wop, it was founded in the fall of last year, and now it has already been officially announced that

the workshop, where it will be serviced, is starting to work , repair, western, well, primarily german. here is the equipment there in the photos published by the ukroboronprom concern, more precisely by the shareholder ukrainian defense-industry company, and it can be seen that there are marder bmps standing there, that is, everything, most likely this very equipment, which will be repaired by this enterprise in the first stages, later with given the previous information, we will be talking about the repair of tanks, such as leopard 1, leopard 2, and then we will be talking about the start of production, that is, in fact... although maybe someone has some idea of ​​what ryne metal said that he is entering ukraine and tomorrow everything that is needed will be produced there, even kf 51 pantera. no, the reality is exactly what it is, it consists in the fact that first a company is created that will deal with repairs, and it is already very difficult, because it means that

you have to, well, find premises, that's all, that's all it is clear, but in addition , it is necessary to train and certify, well, in this case, specialists, both engineers and technicians, workers, to teach them to repair and repair not in field conditions, that is, not this is a quick repair, when you need to catch something as quickly as possible, already carry out more such significant repairs, such as at least average, this is the appropriate equipment, the equipment, this is the equipment of the enterprise, this is the appropriate logistics. chains of supply of spare parts, that is, all this takes about as much time in any country in the world, even in those where no one bombs anyone, well, in particular, for example, where, on the contrary, there is no war, it can all unfold calmly and two steps, so it is quite possible to say that this one the step was taken sufficiently, well, objectively

, in those conditions and realities, quite quickly in my opinion, and we should also not forget that... this is the first experience, ukraine, thanks to such self-isolationism, with picks, we will do everything ourselves , in relation to the production of weapons, did not involve western companies in the production of weapons, and rain metal is really, well, this is the first swallow and let's hope that it is given maximum assistance in all this, because again it is a joint venture, where rayan metal owns 51% . in addition, according to the annual report and generally published strategy. in the near future, rain metal's goal of this german defense giant is to become the main supplier of weapons for the armed forces of ukraine. that is why one shop, one factory will not do the job, it has already been announced that the production of ammunition, protracted samples, we are talking about artillery shells of 155 mm caliber, first of all, in addition

to that, another enterprise will be created that will deal with it. production of air defense systems, that is, again the task of this part of ukraine is to provide rain metal with conditions that correspond to what this company can get and is already getting, for example, in hungary, in the baltic countries, because if it gets involved with some specifics of ukrainian business there and the behavior of some officials , well, well... they will, we just understand, mr. oleg, what you are hinting at, that is, the business nightmare that is currently happening in ukraine will be unacceptable for western defense enterprises that will enter here, and they will leave here as they will only see some thickening of the clouds over their businesses, but you know, i would also like to ask you about the ukrainian guided aerial bombs, there was a statement

by the commander, one of the commanders in the air force, regarding... guided aerial bombs of our production, and we are actually at the final stage, testing will be in the coming weeks, how would you rate the overall potential of our country with regard to guided aerial bombs? well, first of all, we understand that they need fighter jets, this is the first moment, the second moment, we need a lot of them, because we know how russia puts our front-line forces to sleep cities with these guided aerial bombs, how is it modernizing them, and this is a serious threat, can russia get its own nuts? and we can play this game, as they say, together. well, objectively it's a game, we're talking about a mutual game, because ukraine actually started it first. the use of western similar long-range glide bombs, we are talking about jatame, this has obviously already been officially announced, we are talking about the fact that ukraine

also uses aviation sdbs (gbu-39), and here the right is exclusive, well, the assim hammer is also in this category can be attributed french, but the fact is that the russian federation really scaled up the production of its own ompk kits and... blinks them in huge quantities, and here the only question is that jadem er is a new product in the usa, for example, in the air force in the army, the us air force, it is not used, it is generally such a development that was created at booing, more precisely, not that at boing, even in the australian segment of boeing, and well, they cannot be taken in such a large number, because they have to be manufactured, relative to sdb, the situation is obviously better. and again there is just the resource is appropriate, because there are still a really large number of soviet aviation bombs in ukraine, and why not create something similar in the ipc and start

dropping them in a similar way, the only thing that made a huge difference here, and why something similar to the ompk did not appear we had it much earlier, the difference is that the russians, they can use their aviation, well, in fact, in any modes. and in the impk it is dropped from a high altitude flight at the ranges there, well , its flight range is estimated as 70 there km 80, and conditionally there they can approach at at an altitude of 12 km there or 10 km, eight, okay , uh, well, somewhere 50 km from the front line and drop a bomb and make an anti-aircraft maneuver, that is , go out, and the ukrainian aviation cannot do that , because the enemy has... well, an advantage in the air in relation to the range of hitting targets, and we are not only talking about nasal su 35 or 31 fighters, we are also talking about the ground component in the form of s4, which are now being actively

destroyed, but nevertheless, it is obvious that ukraine, if it will use similar kits in the ipc, but in the so- called camber mode, that is, the plane must approach at a low altitude, raise the bottom, pull it up and throw it on the slide. umpk, which are analogues of umpk, which will already follow such a steep trajectory to the target, so here is a slightly different development, and in fact we are not talking about a kit for planning, but a kit that will immediately solve much more difficult tasks and with overloads and everything else. thank you, mr. editor, oleg katkov, a military expert, chief editor of defense express, was in touch with us. well, now let's cut it short. but before her , we have the opportunity to see the plot of ours colleagues, so the prospects of mutual use of defense resources, the development of technologies and sanctions against the russian federation, became the topics of the freedom summit

held in washington, and representatives of the arms industry, together with military delegates from the special services and veterans of ukraine and the united states, actually spoke frankly for the first time about the possibility of cooperation between the two countries. let's look at the plot of our colleagues. at the freedom summit, the national association of the defense industry of ukraine once again introduces westerners at the highest level allies with the weapons potential of our state. this time, the appeal for joint implementation of projects is aimed at american partners. hundreds of industry representatives came to washington for a defense conference. the event is opened by the former special representative of the us state department for ukraine, kurd walkerker. he is convinced that the joint implementation of innovations will help ukraine win the war. for this defense industry conference , many people with a great deal of practical experience and knowledge have come here to virginia. also this defense companies that are interested in

helping ukraine attract more of our know-how and technologies to build partnerships with ukrainian companies. a lot of useful things can come out of such cooperation. ukrainian representatives also talk about their interest in the development of close industrial cooperation with the usa. this is serhii skoryk, commercial director. which successfully develops and manufactures means of radio-electronic warfare and intelligence. currently, there are about 30 different systems. thanks to cooperation with american partners, quertus plans strengthen countermeasures against russian drones, which most often injure our military personnel. so it turns out that we are the world 's leading, unfortunately, because we have a war, but we already have what we have, but we want to ... develop our product, we know that in the united states there is technology that would be the experience and the technologies we already use, in combination with those

technologies, are useful to us. which are in the state, well, they simply increased protection, and accordingly we would save more lives. protection of the ukrainian sky, one from the topics to which the participants of the conference constantly refer and remind about the request of the ukrainian government to hand over the f-16 aircraft to us as soon as possible. meanwhile, interaction in this direction should be comprehensive, says retired general frank helmick, former commander of the 18th airborne corps and the last commander of us forces in iraq. when you hear the f-16, you say, wow, that's a real game changer, but what the ukrainians are getting is not a game changer, they 're getting 30-year-old planes that don't have radars that are covered with rust, so we have to equip them, figure out how to get them to ukraine, and also train the technicians, where are we going to get repair parts, how are we going to protect these planes from russian strikes, we have to

help ukraine in this matter. vadym bartkov, marketing director of the vik teviro company, which develops reconnaissance drones, among the company's achievements is the unique and largest drone in ukraine, the stork 100. almost 50% of all reconnaissance missions on the battlefield are performed by this particular bird. the company is presented in washington for the first time and vadim is counting on it find partners to make a technological breakthrough. you need our expertise, we need your money, that is, you have financing, you have. there is such an opportunity, finance our ukrainian rent so that we already understand today what will happen in the future. yes, i can say right now, and maybe this is the main thing to say, there are two strategies, the first strategy is cross-system, it's just now starting to be developed among drones, cross-system, and we're doing that too, and the second is artificial intelligence, if we combine it,

maybe it will give... some influence. according to the conference participants, modern armed conflicts in the world and in ukraine, in particular, have long since turned into arndi wars, research and development competitions, and drones play an important role in this. the number of technological changes, the use of unmanned aerial vehicles, fpv, indicate that reality has changed a lot. everything we see in ukraine is significantly different from the experience we had in... the fight. you have to relearn, but you have to understand what you have the right to any weapon, as long as it is effective. fpv is a very important part of the war in conditions where ukraine lacks missiles, mortars and other weapons. and it is good that ukraine produces drones independently. financing of the defense industry of our country is possible not only through cooperation with powerful american corporations. in particular, funds seized

from... the aggressor state as part of the sanctions imposed by the international community can be used for this, the adviser to the head of the office of the president of ukraine told about them at the defense conference in washington andriy yarmaka vladyslav vlasyuk. two years ago, after a full-scale invasion, we saw how many challenges ukraine faced. andriy yermak and former us ambassador to russia michael mcfaul headed the international group on sanctions against the russian federation. we meet with international experts. we are successfully developing criteria and recommendations in order to transfer them to the relevant authorities and confiscate the assets included in these sanctions. during the g7 meeting, this will be one of the topics. hopefully, a powerful one will appear decision on the confiscation of russian assets in favor of ukraine. the statements made at the conference clearly indicate that us arms corporations are very interested in cooperation

with ukraine. joint production. will be able not only to strengthen the position of both countries in the world arms market, but also to push other players out of it, who in particular provide support to the russian federation, and most importantly, instead of changing the rules of the game on the battlefield, innovations should ultimately end this war. we are a team of early spacex engineers. i have experience in building rockets and spent most of the time trying to install hardware on the surface of mars. i am well aware of the cost of human lives due to the fact that certain systems were not delivered to ukraine. innovation is very important, and i would like to convince all americans in this room that we should stand together with ukrainians. we have all the tools we need to solve this problem, to stop the bloodshed in ukraine, and i urge everyone to do so. in general, decisive and convincing statements in support of ukrainian manufacturers and the indomitable ukrainian people.

almost a hundred participants from each of them blew that...
