having launched the kurdish operation, ukraine

warned of the threat of russian troops invading sumy, president volodymyr zelenskyi said. however, with the beginning of the kurdish operation, sumy oblast is being destroyed shelling from russia, if earlier the border suffered, now cruise missiles attack almost every day and deep into the region. what will happen to sumy region and did the kursk operation turn it around? let's talk today. this is svoboda ranok, my name is iryna ostrovska. i congratulate you. tonight, sumy and the region were under fire again, after a massive attack by the shaheds, the lights went out in some areas. even konotop, which is 80 km from the border with russia, i.e. not too close, also switched to emergency power supply at night. the city authorities promise to publish water supply schedules and opens points of impregnability today already from 6:30 in the morning. about how sumy survived this night, what are the latest trends. sometimes we will talk now alyona yatsina, correspondent of radio liberty, congratulations, alyona, good

morning, good morning to everyone, except perhaps the residents of sumy oblast, who have been without communication, electricity and water since the first night, the majority of people in the region, we have now two large electric substations are on fire, regarding the number of hits that were yesterday during the massive attack, to be honest, i still don't know, somewhere after... the 10th explosion, i guess i stopped counting them, but now what kind of communications are there in the city, what is the general situation in sumy, well, i drove around the city, now several traffic lights are working and basically that's it, there is no electricity anywhere since the first night, there is no connection either, water is supplied, well, up to the fifth floor it is more or less normal, but then there is no water at all, but up to the fifth floor... with reduced pressure trolleybuses do not run in the city, as far as is known in advance, people

were not injured during this attack, there are several country houses that were hit by debris, and critical infrastructure facilities in sumy. in konotop, which was also attacked yesterday by the shaheds, there is a hit on the meat processing plant, where a fire and a dachshund were burning yesterday. critical infrastructure itself, as well as konotop now without light, without communication, and it was known yesterday evening about one person injured as a result of this attack. we will talk more about the situation in konotop in today's issue. alyono, what are the general trends in sumy oblast, have there really been shellings recently it became more, and are the settlements that were calmer before really now under fire , and what do people associate this with? this is absolutely true, unfortunately, the authorities at the same time declare that

shelling has decreased and civilians who suffer from it have decreased, however, in august , with the start of the so-called kurdish operation, we broke sad records in terms of the number of shellings and casualties in our country only for august 100 civilians were injured as a result of these attacks, the city of glukhiv, yampil, and shostkinsky. district, which were previously conditional peaceful cities and they were not affected, now the russians are simply erasing them from the face of the earth, in particular yampil with the help of the kabians, well, from what we saw, while working, they are erasing them right through the streets, likewise gluhiv is a city where before the war lived more than 30,000 people, now they are going to evacuate it, and where exactly to evacuate the deaf, there is no answer from... anyone, nor from the authorities, nor from anyone, that is, people are simply called leave, and give those who wish

to leave by free train from shostka to kyiv, that's actually all, and this called evacuation, but do you know if people are using this opportunity to leave, or if people are leaving glukhov right now? practically no, that is, everyone who wanted to leave somehow had the opportunity and had the opportunity to go somewhere... they leave, the others are, well, let's say this, it's more than one, they leave, other people stay, they ask to protect them, they say that they nowhere to go and they want to live. at home, that is, the mood is generally like this, and the local authorities also support these moods, how will it threaten, how will it end, while it is not known, however, the situation is like this at the moment, and it is not only in glukhiv, it is in principle the entire shostkinsky district, sumy district, and okhtyr district, in sumy district

the mandatory evacuation of communities bordering, let's say, that the territory that... ukraine leads, let's say yes, there are battles in the territory of kurtshchyna, and here are these communities that are adjacent to this territory in sumyshchyna, then a mandatory evacuation has been announced there, there is no communication at all, for the most part there is no light communication, there are a lot of guided air bombs arriving precisely in the villages, and it is not possible to evacuate from everywhere precisely because of the security situation. alyono, how do the locals actually feel about this kurdish operation, do they associate the constant, recent shelling with this operation, are there any complaints that this is what caused the trouble? you know, of course, people directly relate to this complaint that there is no such thing, everyone hopes that, let's say, they hope that our military,

who started this operation, and the people who made this decision... . knew something and everyone hopes that we will keep this plot front, because people understand that if this section of the front does not stand, then the russians, counterattacking the armed forces of ukraine, will definitely not stop, they will not stop at the state border, and there are warnings that this will be another attack on sumy oblast, which is probably what they fear the most so far. alyona, what is the situation? returning to sumy, what is the situation there, what do the locals say, because the shelling there has increased, so they have increased, are people planning to evacuate from sumy, or are there such thoughts? you know, there are people who have already evacuated from sumy since the beginning of august, people from families, with small children, those who have somewhere to go, as they say, then they leave,

someone plans to leave later, when... the heating season does not start, for example, that is, but for now, let's say, the city is full , that is, even renting an apartment in sumy, firstly, it is probably not much cheaper than in kyiv, and secondly, it is almost impossible, people stay, wait, hope that it will be better, although tonight to my memory, it's probably the loudest night since the full-scale invasion, and cabs were and there were shahedis, and it was all within the city limits, or very close to the city, and we have small amounts, so everything is very good to hear, and i don't know, maybe after that night there will be a little more people willing to leave. alyona, what about the shelters and actually, do people even have time to respond to air alarms, and are these alarms in place, or is there a warning about

the threat of shelling? our alarms last for 20 hours to... 15 hours, that is, the alarm is permanent and always, of course, no one sits in the basements, there are monitoring channels, there are local media that report threats there either to certain communities or to sums, however , it is worth understanding that sums are located 30 km from the state border of ukraine, that is , they fly to us from three minutes to a minute, shahedis are also quite fast, well but as for the shaheds , you can still manage to hide them. there are actually no shelters in the city, there are the simplest shelters, such as basements in residential buildings, or there are shelters at large enterprises, in order to get to them, it takes time, well, even for people from the closest homes, so the people of sumy mainly hiding in the hallways or bathrooms, or not hiding at all, although i think

the bagmen have all at least moved to the hallways tonight. alyona, thank you, alyona yatsina, correspondent of radio liberty in sumy, about the shelling of the city, which has increased significantly recently. thank you. our colleagues from kordonmedia are currently working in sumy oblast and are talking to people who are still staying in this region and have not yet evacuated. let's listen to what the residents of sumy oblast have to say about the attacks by russian forces. we came there again and we already hear him. loudly and we went there again to the front door and flew, here, and then i hear the racket again, i see that everyone has quieted down, there is no one on the street. i ran to the basement, and that was it, i sat down there and came back again in the morning, because the anxiety lasted all night, yes, and without

light here, what can we make out here, so we all sat, as we entered, what we saw, and they saw the horror, you see, everything is burnt, destroyed, it's horror, horror, it's the same, we also removed a little bit of glass from under our feet. and garbage, but it was still piled up, and it goes to bed every night mitosis, where, where to reduce, where did it fly, where did it fly, damn it, it buzzed, it buzzed somewhere, you call the phone, everything is fine there, yes, everything, somewhere over there, they heard that it was flying, or whatever, it was already thick , already ... in the house you will hear how it flies, how it flies on the street, you will hear a strange whistling, we already know whether it is a projectile, or a missile, or a rocket, everyone is

different a whistle, we just went down and immediately there was an explosion, there was such an explosion that it was all fog in the cellar, we thought that we had fallen, and then, when we went outside, we saw that there were only some twigs standing and that's it, there's nothing else, that's it. well , let's go to the yard and everything and there and there, in general, well, it's not about it, there was no point here , all this is a little thanks to the people who came, helped , cleaned it up, and it was so terrible, everything here was completely empty, well, who stays at home , they sit quietly like that they almost don't go anymore, well , some do here, well, we heard from the residents of sumy oblast, they say that... the shelling in the region is intensifying, someone connects it with the course operation of the armed forces of ukraine that is ongoing, some call it simply terror of the locals residents of the russian army. konotop,

for example, began to appear more often in reports of shelling precisely in september. last week saw the heaviest shelling of the city since the full-scale invasion began. if you don't know sumy region too well, i suggest you look at the map. in the shostka district , the border is constantly being shelled, but now shostka itself is under attack by winged aircraft... bombs. the communities of bilopol and vorozhbyan are also shelled with mortars, krasnopil with artillery and drones. khotynska and youth community. it is actually close to the kursk region. winged aerial bombs are also flying to the city of okhtyrka. there are dead and wounded in cities and villages, houses and infrastructure are being destroyed. here's what the spokesman says about the trends in shelling of sumy oblast and their connection with the kursk operation. vadim mysnyk of the siversk cooperative tactical group. it is near the sumy border, where our defense forces

of ukraine are conducting the kurdish operation, the so- called, there those district regions are most exposed to intense shelling from the enemy, they are trying, of course, they are aimed more at the civilian population, they are simply... actually destroying our cities, border settlements, and there is no need to look for military logic in this, because they have always acted like this, er, more often they use guided aerial bombs, which can strike deep within their own territory 50-70 km away, which is a problem for us, they also actively use fpv drones, unmanned strike aircraft. we no longer notice the barrel artillery either, well, either it has significantly decreased, or it is completely

absent in some regions, we have close-range mortar fire, so to speak, here and there literally several kilometers, we provide the enemy with such an opportunity that it should be noted that here the intensity of fire is compared to these two ... the region that i named, in comparison with the region of the kursk region, which is controlled by the ukrainian defense forces, there is much more shelling, there can be no pacification of the russian troops, for it is only a matter of time before they are all that will dump on us, they are either here or in another place, but they will hit ukraine with everything they have, using the entire arsenal, so i can see for myself, well, as a military man, that... they see our successes in the kurdish operation and already close to them, so that they are probably a certain fear that we will somehow

act in other cities of the border, that is, they have been russians since the spring of this year, when there was an exacerbation in the spring created the sever group, this is the bryansk-kursk belgorod region under the command of lapin, this is them created groups and threatened invasion and offensive actions in the kharkiv direction, as well as in sumy, chernihiv, and we expected this, there was a lot of activity, and the sumy region also... suffered from such large-scale shelling, including by kababs, including when the enemy tried to conduct offensive actions in the direction of kharkiv, the bombardment of the sumy oblast completely subsided, literally, they stopped, there were no helicopter gunships or bombs there were none of the planes, that is, they concentrated on to the kharkiv direction, which says that they

also have unlimited resources, they... somewhere, somewhere , they have to do something, but in another place it completely stops, with the start of our kurdish operation, the situation has changed the other way around, and shostka is a city where people are evacuated from the border, this is a kind of resettlement hub, the distance to the russian border from here is about 50-70 km, although winged aerial bombs from russia are already flying here, people are here they are not forced to evacuate, they are given the choice to leave, to see what it is like to live in an evacuation, so that make a weighted decision whether it is worth going or whether it is worth staying. let's listen to what the mayor of shostka says, if you take buses, drive them, put them in the center, then gather people, then this is not just an element of organization, but an element of influence on the consciousness of the people, please, let's go, let's leave, until the evacuation passes

in purely voluntary conditions, if you want to evacuate, please, you will find transport, you will find a person to help you, you will be accompanied by your movement, and in these directions it is not only us, the red the cross works specifically there, and the police have special armored vehicles, that is, a whole complex of such different directions, and i believe that this is correct, we do not need a center, we are not the soviet union. we are ukrainians, we are free, if you want, please, we will help you, and if you want to defend the country here and hold on, hold on, honor and praise to you, i will tell you, in two weekends we had to, we had to work with five drivers, and only one of them agreed to go to the hottest spot, and we are very, well, not calm about it, we understand, one person

was at the front, was... under fire, she has already hardened, and he calmly sits down, drives, and the other is worried, beats, and we this person who is worried, we do not persuade her, we do not arrest her, because well , and these are our people, and this, and these are our people, if you have the strength, the feeling of such an opportunity to go, please, we will pay you the money, it is all not free, but if you are worried, stay here in this area, you will get used to it. over time and then he will also go, this is such an approach factor, it is more people who go, leave, who have dogs and cats, the animal stimulates them to come and go from the front row, but it’s just the fact that one dog is driving, there is such a thing, there is such a thing, there is such a thing, but it’s

a conscious choice... the choice of each person, it’s absolutely it is not an easy decision, this decision lies deep inside a person, she will think a thousand times, she will weigh, change her mind a thousand times, to go to another city, this is also not an easy task, no one will create ideal conditions there, but the understanding of safety, that's where we stand, everyone must think for themselves, if you shake and you are afraid, you don't need to go there, you are not here... you are needed and you don't need to go around here and worry the rest, go, you, you have a hard time, then you can, maybe there are many such cases, you left, visited, then came back again, but if the person has already visited , if she saw there and there and there, she already consciously, even more consciously makes a decision, each in a separate case, this was the issue of freedom of the mornings, me, iryna ostrovska and the entire team of our project, we say thank you and
