damaged residential buildings in the city and the moscow region, they say that there are dead and injured. drones also attacked an energy facility in the tula region. above him apparently shot down two drones. and debris fell on the territory, as usual, without consequences, in total , seven regions of russia were attacked by drones. they allowed to hit military targets in russia. the netherlands has lifted restrictions on the use of provided weapons. the permission also extends to advanced f-16 fighters. this was stated by the minister of defense ruben brekelmans. he noted that the netherlands will encourage other partners as well. to such a decision, because the destruction of military targets in russia corresponds to ukraine's right to self-defense. ukraine appealed to the member countries of interpol with with a request for the detention and temporary arrest of a fugitive artem dmytruk from the people's deputy.

the prosecutor general's office is asking to extradite the parliamentarian, because a criminal case has been opened against him. let me remind you that on august 29, the pochersky district court of kyiv chose a preventive measure against dmytrouk in absentia. detention. he is suspected of attacking a soldier and a law enforcement officer. on august 24, the people's deputy left the country. and to operational information from the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. 167 combat clashes took place at the front during the day. the hottest is on kurakhivskyi and pokrovsky directions. there, our defenders repelled 86 attacks. most near mykhailivka, novohorodivka, kostyantynivka and geor. 14 times the russians tried to storm our positions on the lyman and seversky directions, nine times with the support of aviation , the enemy attacked near nelipivka and turetsk. kharkiv region is also restless. our military repelled 12 assaults in the kupyansk direction and two more in

the vovchansk and hlyboky areas. our aircraft, rocket launchers and gunners made 13 strikes on areas where russian personnel were concentrated, and also impressed. artillery systems of the occupiers. on the international day of exchange of ideas, another 1,380 occupiers exchanged ideas and decided to die on ukrainian soil. and in general, since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, 627 thousand russian soldiers have already supported this idea. also, during the past day, the enemy did not count one tank, 19 armored fighting vehicles, fifty artillery systems and almost. dozens of cars and four units of special equipment. the data added by the general staff are indicative. and we invite you to join our gathering. funds are needed for drones and a charging station for reconnaissance of the third sso regiment, which is destroying the enemy in the area of ​​chasovoy yar

in donetsk region. the russians are constantly attacking and trying to capture the city, because it is a panoramic height from which it is easier to shell other settlements. our defenses'. are on the defensive, but need our help. soldiers need drones. they will help not only to improve the performance of combat tasks, but also to save the lives of our soldiers. so your donation will increase the effectiveness of actions against the enemy. our goal is uah 890,000. with your help, we have already collected over uah 250,000. remember, your help is very important. so get involved. you can see all the details on the screen. about the goods in kyiv is again in the center of attention. the capital's activists came under the walls of the kyiv city council to prevent large-scale development of a well-known tract of the city. they call such actions joint machinations of the city authorities

and developers. let me remind you that the protests were named after the soldier and public activist roman ratoshny, who defended the preservation of the green zone. are going to build a protoss, after they promised that it would be untouchable, after the death of roman ratushny, and it simply outraged me, and i had a free day, and that's why i'm here, either enough time has passed, or the people are like that, there's such an advantage, well, people will be agitated and calm down, let's wait, no will wait for the debate between kamala harris and donald trump. will take place today in philadelphia and will be moderated by abc news for 90 minutes. trump criticized the idea of ​​​​talking to the broadcaster, because he wanted to meet with harris on the loyal to the republican party fox news. let me remind you that the candidates have never

met in person and prepared in advance for this event. the american press has already called the debates of politicians key in the electoral process of the united states. america. the next issue is already at 10 o'clock. read more news on our website espresso.tv, also on our social networks. my colleagues oksana vasochanska and roman chaika will continue, do not switch, stay with the espresso team.

attack drones tonight attacked the moscow region, podolsk, karamensk, lyubertsy, domodedovo, kolomna, in these cities districts of russia, air defense forces shot down 14 drones, russian telegram channels write with reference to... nator of the moscow region. two drones crashed into apartment buildings. flights were delayed at vnukovo and domodedovo airports. the russian authorities blamed ukraine for the attack. it is several kilometers from the ukrainian border to the moscow region. so if ukrainian weapons can fly deep into the territory of the russian federation, why does ukraine ask for this permission from its allies? this is what we are talking about today. this is svoboda ranok. my name is bohdan logunov. we begin. tonight it became known that the netherlands allowed ukraine to use its own weapons, including

f-16 aircraft, for attacks on the territory of russia. the country's defense minister says the netherlands will not impose any distance restrictions and calls on partners to do the same. ukraine is waiting for the same permission, primarily from the usa and germany. the white house continues to repeat that the us position has not changed. trying to push the white house to remove restrictions on the use of weapons in... official kyiv at the end of the summer, he submitted a list of military targets in russia that he plans to strike, but there is still no response. in general, the main intrigue is whether ukraine will have time to get permission from the united states to strike on russian territory before the american presidential elections, which will be held in november. now ukraine is allowed to strike on the territory of the russian federation, but only for the purpose of protecting the kharkiv region. the biden administration has hinted that they may expand this authorization, however. will depend on the situation on the battlefield, what are the chances in ukraine get this permission before the presidential elections

in the states? we asked the former commander of the us army in europe, ben hodges. let's listen. mr. hodges, please explain to us why it is important for ukraine to obtain us permission to strike on the territory of russia and what objects will ukraine be able to hit if such permission is granted? first of all, i think. that it is terrible policy of the united states to impose restrictions on ukraine's ability to use weapons that we have already provided to ukraine, such as the three-kilometer atacoms. i think this policy is a result of the administration is not yet ready to undertake to help ukraine win. we don't have a clear vision of the outcome from the us perspective, and because of that we continue to engage in bad policy. i hope that will change. of course, ukraine has the right to defend itself, and that's why strikes on airfields from... russian attacks, whether it's missiles, whether it's drones, whether it's aircraft dropping guided bombs, are legitimate targets,

and we should not limit ukraine in strikes for these purposes, mr. hodges, and according to your estimates, whether ukraine has received permission prospects that this will happen before the american election? i don't know, i'd like to hope it does, because it's such an obvious thing to do, i don't know how the... stration can just sit back while russia kills innocent ukrainian civilians. i hope that when the ukrainian government presents its victory plan to the american administration with specific goals, i hope that it will be convincing, i do not understand the resistance and reluctance on the part of the administration, and it will become a stain or a stain on the work of president biden, who did so much to help ukraine. either way, i think this will be a negative part of his resume, and i hope he factors that into his administration's staffing as well. and according to your prediction, if the biden administration, let's say, doesn't grant such a permit, then what about

the new administration that comes in after the election, what are the chances that the permit will be granted, well, first of all, let's note that the united the united states is not the only country in the world that helps ukraine, there are dozens of european countries that are also interested in doing so ukraine has been successful, but some of them are waiting, and i wish they would step up and provide what is needed, i think that's what i would say, one way or another, without waiting for us leadership in this, unfortunately for the new administration, i'm more confident that if it 's the harris administration. that president harris will, at a minimum, continue the us support provided by the biden administration. i expect her to be more assertive on this issue, but it won't happen the day after she takes office. it will be one thing of many issues that will have to be resolved at the beginning of the work, but i think that she will be better prepared. she's going to be very well prepared for that, as for the

trump administration, i don't know. he is very unpredictable, he is very situational, he does not make decisions based on principles. so i think yes, i can't predict what the trump administration is going to do. it is not known what kind of objects are on the list of desired goals that ukraine has transferred to the states. however, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine oleksandr syrskyi in his interview told the american cnn that in the case of such a permission, the armed forces of ukraine will strike exclusively at military targets, in particular, they will strike at missile systems that shell ukrainian settlements almost every day, as well as attack russian bases and warehouses. fuel and weapons, military logistics and airfields. currently, ukraine already has certain types of weapons from allies that can fly over a long distance, but the full potential of these weapons is not used due to restrictions. accordingly, due to the bans, the number of russian targets for destruction is reduced from more than 200 to 20. so what weapons is ukraine still asking for and what objects on the territory of russia

can become potential targets for destruction. my colleague roman smolyar will talk next. ukraine has already received long-range missiles from its allies, which are capable of meeting the needs of the armed forces for strikes on russian military facilities. however , there is no permission for such their use. these are, in particular, the british storm shadow, the french scalp and the american atakams. but the german taurus, which is also potentially of interest to ukraine, was never handed over. i will tell you now in more detail. storm shadow, scalp - these are two names of actually the same... rocket, their difference is that stormshadow is produced in great britain, and scalp in france. ukraine received these air-to-surface cruise missiles in 2023. they are launched from su-24 bombers, which are in service with the air force of the armed forces of ukraine. these missiles were delivered to ukraine in a modified version with a reduced

range (250 km) so that, in particular, the armed forces of ukraine did not fire on the territory of the russian federation, but further. of these missiles 560 km. taurus is aviation a long-range air-to-surface cruise missile, it is designed for precision strikes against protected targets such as underground command posts, pillboxes, fortifications, bunkers, as well as hangars and weapons caches, and importantly, they can be launched without the carrier aircraft entering the range anti-aircraft defense of the enemy army. negotiations on the transfer of aurus missiles, which ukraine is conducting with germany, have so far not been crowned with success. germany was going to transfer them to ukraine, albeit with a reduced range to 400 km, but this never happened. chancellor scholz said it could increase the level of escalation. atakams is a tactical missile with a ballistic trajectory. and ukraine received and started using this weapon last year. the united states provided the missiles

under the condition that they hit only their own territories, not the territory of the russian federation. haiers artillery systems are used to launch these missiles. the mmc attack comes in two versions. in addition to the usual warhead, there is a modification with a cluster warhead. and their damage range is 300 km. this is exactly the modification of the atakams with with a cluster part with a range of 300 km can significantly affect the front line, as well as force the russian forces to withdraw their equipment , primarily aviation and manpower, deep into the territory of russia - says military expert serhiy sgurets. when we talk about priority russian targets, we, the chechens , were somewhat late in handing over the atakamtsi to us, because we know that there is a field up to 300 km away. 20 russian airfields on the front were and are located near there, where carriers and cabs and missile weapons were located, and even

now the enemy, fearing such permission already relocated part of the aviation beyond 300 km, in order to avoid the risk of destroying planes, although it is precisely the planes at the airfields that... are the most targeted for which attacks with a cluster warhead were actually created, because opening there over the airfield, it is guaranteed to destroy a significant number of russian aircraft. and what military targets on the territory of russia are potential targets for ukraine and are located in the range of atakams missiles? according to the american institute for the study of war, at least 245 important military facilities on the territory of the russian federation are within the radius of action of atakoms, but... restrictions on strikes significantly reduce this list. first of all, we are talking about airfields from which russian aircraft take off, which then hit ukrainian cities.

if we look at the map, we can see that the three-kilometer atakams can reach up to two dozen russian airfields. in particular , shaykovka, morozovsk, milerove are the airfields from which tu-22 strategic bombers and su-34 attack aircraft take off. there are also airfields in the range, which... the russian army uses for launches strike drones of the shachet type, for example, primorsko-akhtarsk, seshcha and yeisk. among the desired targets for ukraine are not only airfields, but also ammunition depots, command posts, troop concentrations, logistics, storage of fuel materials and positions of russian air defense systems, - explains military expert serhii sgurets. if the enemy will have less fuel, less ammunition, he will not be able to concentrate his forces for preparation. them for offensive actions, then all this will really affect the front lines, so i think that the political position of the ukrainian side to convince our american friends, first of all, to give permission is an extremely logical

step, and i hope that now a number of military experts and politicians understand that it is absolutely expedient, it is impossible to conduct hostilities in conditions where the potential of the transferred weapons are not really used to their full potential. after each massive attack by the russian federation forces against civilians... in the cities of ukraine. kyiv appeals to washington for permission to strike on the territory of the russian federation. the position of the usa is still unchanged. there is fear of the unpredictable consequences in terms of escalation. in russia , such requests from kyiv are called blackmail. roman smolyar, radio svoboda. ukraine not only hopes for the help of its allies, but also produces and uses its own long-range weapons. so at the end of the summer, we learned that the ukrainian long-range missile. already hit the target of the russian army in the territory of the occupied crimea. this is a palyanitsa rocket drone. in addition, the development of the ukrainian ballistic missile sapsan has been ongoing for several years. what long-range

weapons of its own production does ukraine have and why, despite having its own long-range missiles still requests permission for use on the territory of the russian federation in other countries. we asked taras chmut, director of the return to the living charitable foundation. let's listen. during the press conference on august 27, volodymyr zelenskyi announced the test. ukrainian ballistic missile, can we predict what we are talking about, is this a project that has been worked on for a long time, like sabsan, is it already thunder 2, or is it some new development, what is known about this new ballistic missile? i think such sensitive topics should be commented upon after it is official information, but the public is obviously the sapsan anti-missile defense system, which from... until the 14th year, ukraine tried to develop with different stages, with different funding or its absence in certain years, and the demonstration of individual

elements, such as self-propelled launchers, or solid fuel engines, or a warhead during certain tests. at the same time , there are other private teams working on similar projects in different countries. stages of success, of course we are not talking about some super rockets for thousands of kilometers, this let's call something like this, light ballistic missiles, let's say so, or something in between unguided missiles, but there is work on this, and now let's talk separately about one domestic development, about which something is already known and the president has already personally stated, it is a drone missile palyanitsa, and of course information about her. and its production characteristics are classified, however, in the released video it is stated that it can strike at 700 km, this is what

the president was talking about, and he also noted that they ... are capable of hitting up to 20 russian airfields, well, they are located at such a distance, according to your estimates, how promising is this firecracker and can ukraine launch it, let's say serial production, or was it a one-off, was it a one-time test application? we are not talking about one-off, again there are several teams in ukraine, about ten, that work on directive kamikaze drones, which we have been using for more than a year from... different distances, with different success rates, and most likely we are talking about one of similar developments. ukraine already has concrete ones developments, i propose to talk in more detail about the neptune coastal missile complex. and the armed forces of ukraine received it for service in 2020, it was originally designed for strikes on, let's say, naval targets, yes. subsequently,

a modification took place. for its strikes on ground targets, but its combat use began last year, and the naval forces , as well as the russian ministry of defense, also stated that ukraine used neptune for attacks, in particular on russian objects in the black sea region, or it can be assumed that this neptune has already started serial production, and can we talk about the number of such missiles at all, ukraine produces a lot of different types of weapons in syria, the question is about the volume of the series and the need that this series covers? the neptune is indeed adopted, the first division, that is, the complex of the same year was purchased for the naval forces, received by the naval forces at the beginning, well, let's say, in the spring , winter, spring of the 22nd year, in the future these complexes will continue to be purchased as coastal ones

anti-ship missiles, as well as missiles for them, which can be, as you mentioned, for the impression of surface targets, as well as the so-called long neptune, which can work according to the ground-to-ground principle, that is, for the impression of ground targets, at certain distances. and mr. taras, of course, about the permission from the usa, why does ukraine actually have this permission to strike russian military facilities, if ukraine has its own developments in principle, and in case of use. cheese developments for such strikes, do you need to ask permission from allies, provide information about the targets that are planned to be hit, what do you think about this reason? what is used by ukraine has limited characteristics, if we are talking about drones, well, they are big, they are visible, they go astray, obviously, and they do not have a very powerful combat unit, that is, they usually

say about 20, 50. maybe 70 kg , different manufacturers for different tasks at different distances, when we talk about a cruise missile, it has a much higher speed, if we talk about western missiles, they have certain elements of reducing visibility, they are many times harder to shoot down, and they carry a much more powerful combat part, that is, most likely they will perform the task more efficiently, sometimes the window of opportunity you have is quite in... relatively speaking, today the planes are at the airfield, and you can destroy them today, tomorrow they will be gone. the mass use of drones, those carried out by ukraine, requires a huge amount of preparation, a huge involvement of human resources, planning, favorable weather conditions, accompanying support from partners, as well as a certain separation of targeting and separation of functions within the defense forces, this a very difficult task, and when we read some

but... that something will burn somewhere, people think that it is very simple. in fact, in some places, thousands of people worked on this attack in order to achieve this result. with western weapons, it can be faster, easier, more effective. on the other hand, we do not have enough ballistic missiles that are critically difficult to intercept, as we see, unfortunately, in our example, that can carry a cluster warhead, which is ... specially created and designed to cover large area targets, for example, airfields, for example, places of accumulation of armored vehicles or any other equipment, for example, places of accumulation of personnel, that is, two or three ballistic missiles at 300 km can take out dozens of planes, guaranteed.
