in ukraine, the third, and almost 20 occupiers were taken prisoner by ukrainians and special forces during the liberation of the aggregate plant in vovchansk, kharkiv region, and our defenders, who were the gur special forces, eliminated several dozen more enemies. this was told by an officer of the special unit of the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense with the call sign viking. he also added that the battle on the territory of the enterprise lasted for more than a week. the enemy acted. resistance, but in the end the scouts accomplished the task set before them to a successful conclusion operations in gur were reported the day before. i will only add that today i read, as they say, an upgrade of this information, where general budanov, the head of the main intelligence department, said that this was a unique operation in the history of ukraine, the gur special operation had never been done before. i will only remind you that there were several gurs who reached the point of hand-to-hand combat against ukrainian special forces. without units participated, but

really elite russian troops were involved, they were not chmobikes, not mobikes, they were really also specialists who had to be retained, and the aggregate the factory is almost 30 buildings that were completely cleared, it is not just one house or even more than one factory, it is 30 buildings that our heroes were able to clear, and for which we thank them and respect, and general budanov promised that they will those people who participated in this operation were awarded. the details of the detention of the lviv pseudo-activist the law enforcement officers told the well-known provocateur and anti-vaccinator ostap stakhev about the details of the detention of the lviv pseudo-activist. by according to the sbu and the national police, during one of his live broadcasts, the blogger publicly announced the exact location of one of the military units. well, we are talking about the territorial assembly center, what struck it in the sky. also, the person involved organized so-called

online journalism courses, where, in particular , he taught how to counter mobilization in ukraine. he charged 700 hryvnias for the trainings, after the participants were promised to issue journalist certificates of international standard. instead , they received documents from employees of the local newspaper, which had lost its accreditation yet last spring, well, that is, such a filkin diploma. stakhiv, also known for promoting pro-russian narratives. let me remind you, three years ago he was charged. for attempting to overthrow the constitutional order in ukraine. yes, we still have information. the dream of a fallen soldier, which was embodied by his daughter-in-law. in kyiv, the journalist is completing the filming of an artistic documentary film. this is the story of the famous military correspondent oleksandr makhov, who volunteered for the front on the first day of the russian invasion and died in battle in the village of dovgenke in kharkiv. in may 2022.

the tape was co-authored by oleksandra's bride, anastasia blyshchyk. after the death of her beloved, she also voluntarily joined the ranks of the armed forces, but she did realize sashkov's dream of making a documentary film. the premiere is expected next year. this will be a film where everyone will talk about who alexander magop is. about his life, about his very difficult path, and these will be interviews of brothers who miraculously managed to survive and get out of that hell, because they were surrounded there, a bullet for the prime minister, an envelope with such a surprise sent anonym to the head of the government of slovakia, robert fico, his press service informed, the parcel is being checked by employees of the department for the protection of officials and diplomatic missions of the country.

i would like to remind you that in may, after an off-site meeting of the government, robert fizo shot and wounded him in the chest and stomach. according to media reports , 71-year-old yurai tsintula, who may have been connected to a pro-russian paramilitary group, committed the attack. the ukrainian hub in the polish capital , warsaw, has created a space that will bring together ukrainian businesses and communities in one place. it was organized in honor of the opening festival, so that ukrainians in poland could get to know the residents of the hub better, maria chernyakhivska will tell about the mission of the new space and the first guests. victoria is an artist from kryvyi rih who moved to warsaw after the start of the full-scale war. and now the artist is preparing to open her own art studio on the territory of the ukrainian hub. in addition to training, which will take place both on a paid and charitable basis, victoria has her own social project. i am doing a charity art project, i will. with

with portraits of ukrainian soldiers, where everyone can fill out a google form, leave a story about their soldier to tell and get it for free. the organizers say, these are ukrainian companies working in the field of education, culture, beauty and fashion, gastronomic businesses, or those that provide services in the field of legalization, document management, jurisprudence in poland. there are businesses that are physically present, they work here and participate in the activities of the hub, but they have a discount on rent, and we have such initiatives that are absolutely free for ukrainians for example, we will have a sunday school of the ukrainian language, we will hold free master classes once a week, each resident of the hub will choose for himself which services he will provide to ukrainians for free, so a lot of trainings, lectures and events on various topics are planned here, at the part-time festival prior to the opening

, volunteer organizations also introduce their activities, for example, ms. tetyana has been living in warsaw for more than two years and in her free time sews nets for the ukrainian army, a woman teacher of the ukrainian language and literature for... the occupied part of the kherson region. half of the children, unfortunately, remain in the occupation, those who, for various reasons, could not leave, and for them this education is extremely important, but extremely difficult, because the children are constantly persecuted, these families are oppressed, they are forced go to a russian school. a veteran of the azov regiment with the call sign wikipedia also came from kyiv region to support the initiative. from the stage of the festival, the soldier spoke about the role of ukrainians abroad. i believe that the most important topic in general, which should be conveyed to everyone, without exception, to ukrainians outside the borders of ukraine, that they are the face of our nation, the face of our culture, the face of our country, and it is from them that the attitude of the residents and citizens of the country where they

are located depends, and this affects the decisions of their politicians, already policy decisions affect exactly whether ukraine will win this war. many people visited the festival. ukrainians with children, mostly residents of the eastern part of ukraine, who left for warsaw because of the war. yavochka, tell me, what are you going to do here today? dance. four-year-old eva with her mother came from zaporizhzhia. such measures are important for the family, so that the child preserves the ukrainian identity, says svitlana's mother. we want to return home, in principle, but it does not depend on us how we go. therefore, so far, so far, these measures are very supportive of us. everyone found something to their liking at the festival. from dancing. and drawing to consultations and purchases of things made in ukraine, those willing could also make their charitable contribution to the needs of the azov regiment. maria chernyakhivska, yehor antonyuk for the espresso tv channel from warsaw. vitaly portnikov, khrystyna yatskiv,

andriy smoliy and invited experts based on facts give their assessment and forecast of development. if you want to understand how our today will affect our tomorrow, watch the saturday politics club, every saturday on espresso. greetings, this is svoboda live on radio svoboda. we have already approached the serpent himself. the following shots may shock you. news from the scene, live. kamikaze drone attacks. political analytics. expensive, there is no political season, exclusive interviews, reports from of the hottest points of the front, let's say frankly and impartially, you draw your own conclusions, good evening, we are from ukraine, we

continue and return, that's great. i remind you, my name is vasyl zema, now we will talk about preparing for the heating season, for the autumn-winter period, what the authorities are doing and what we all should do, because the statement that ukrainians should prepare for the heating season and go through it must somehow be shared efforts, we understood this message, and how to prepare, what to do and what is already being done, we will now discuss with svyatoslav pavlyuk, who is the executive director of the energy association. efficient cities of ukraine. mr. svyatoslav, i congratulate you. good evening. so, a few days ago it was announced that on october 15 the heating season should begin in the capital of ukraine, the city of kyiv. well, i think that approximately plus or minus the same days, somewhere it should start in other cities of ukraine. what, for the situation we have now. we are not talking about the threats, the blows

that will come. today, a statement was made that the entire thermal generation of ukraine has been destroyed just to say, the enemy there is shooting the location of nuclear power plants from a satellite. and we understand that there are preparations for possible strikes, but for now, what will mean the beginning of the heating season, what are the capacities, the possibilities, please, ah, i don't even know what to ... to start, first of all i will once again explain what thermal generation is, which i mentioned, thermal generation is the generation of electricity at thermal power plants, it is not the generation of heat as such, because we are talking about heating season, many people may perceive this information in different ways, but first of all it is necessary to understand that last year we had a total of 18 gw of available electricity generation capacity. from the 32s that we used before the war, from the 54s that we

had in general installed in the country until the 13th year, the russians gradually knocked out some of them, some of them remained in the occupied territories, and we actually had some that remained in operation last winter 18 gw, after the strikes of the russians in the past, well, this july and in august, in fact, there were also powerful flights, and since april, in our... there have been a little more than 10 incidents at work, which means that even if we manage to restore part of the thermal power plants, which is not mentioned, but in principle, some work was done there, then everything is equally restored not all will be, some individual blocks will be restored, which will help the system, but everything will not replace everything, this means, in my opinion, that we will have a stable deficit of 3-4 g and a minimum, and maybe up to six, in an optimistic scenario , if the russians will not knock out the stations further, and they will. and note that all the daily reports that we get that the russians

are firing at something there, either with shaheeds or rockets, some part of them are reaching, that is, some part of these rockets are reaching, they do hit something, which is not particularly talked about , nevertheless, there is some damage, and they will continue to do it, so i expect a shortage of electricity, there will be, we have questions about who will be restricted, this is a separate discussion, but most likely they will be restricted. the population itself, because electricity will be used for enterprises, for defense enterprises, for the system of communal enterprises supplying heat, water and so on and so on, that is, most likely we will have a deficit of about 20% to 24% in the energy system, which means that the population will be limited in consumption up to half the time , this is in an optimistic scenario, again, it should be understood that the picture is not the same across ukraine, the main part of the generating

capacities in our country remained on the right bank of the dnieper, there are practically none on the left bank, so the cities on the left bank will be much worse off, it will be more difficult to get them, they will completely depend on the ability of ukrenergo to transmit electricity from the power plant, which is on the right bank, that is, to the left bank, you must understand that you must also remember that ukrenergo as a company, it... does not produce electricity, it is only engaged in the transmission of electricity from producers to regional energy, to the level of distribution already at the level of regions, so a lot will depend on how quickly this company will be able to eliminate damages that will occur due to russian shelling, so far the company has handled it differently, at least i don't think anyone in europe is doing better than them, and that means that well... at least so far they have promised to repair most of the damage due to, well, such

traditional shelling for up to three days, some of them there for up to a day and a half, but if there is significant damage, then it can last up to two weeks, depending on what exactly will be damaged, and therefore we must be ready for what we have at the level and cities, at the household level there may be breaks, and these there may be interruptions, i would rate them as in a real scenario. somewhere around there , there may be a break in the supply of electricity for up to two days, we must be ready for this, but by the way, we just spoke last week with the ex-head of ukrenergo kudrytskyi, who said that ukranergo's facilities were are not the best protected from enemy attacks, and actually managed to restore something there and work with electricity transmission, and president zelenskyy speaking at the united nations said: these very important words were actually the day before winter, because, by the way, in europe there is still this fear of winter, winter migration, or

energy migration, it remains that because it will be cold, ukrainians will go to europe en masse, well, those who can leave, and the president says that russia is planning attacks on the nuclear infrastructure of ukraine in order to disconnect the reactor from the power supply, that is a problem, and from the fact that we, well, any generation will not produce what nuclear generation will produce, that is clear. and so many megawatts or gigawatts, the second question is that it is a threat to of the stations themselves, because this electricity needs to be sent somewhere, well, we also had problems with the south ukrainian as there, we know, maybe with others, what we don't know, so how should our partners react, first of all, i would just like to add that, let's say, the import of european electricity by ukraine is expensive, as they say, and why don't we buy from europe, don't take from europe when we're not there, well, it's expensive, please, there are two reasons, the first is that it is expensive,

but the second, the second part of the problem is that the european union cannot supply us with that much electricity. we need to cover all our needs, even if we had the money to do it, and it's not just a question of the capacity of our system, it's a question of the capacity of the systems of our countries, neighbors, uh, because if we were in the center networks of the european union, ncei, the so-called network of operators, eu countries, then we would have more connections, we are actually on the outskirts of the european energy network. and the number, the number of physical connections we have is very limited, at the moment our lost neighbors cannot supply us with more electricity than they supply now, which is about 2 g. if they are fully engaged, there

are 1.7 to 2.2 different possibilities, it still does not cover our needs, even if we took it in full, so ... expect that imports can cover all our needs, it is quite so, well, naively, i would say, i would i didn’t do it, well, we go, as they say, from the general to the specific, and to the private, let’s say this, people who have their own houses, firewood, pallets, there’s coal, who has what there, who has what stock, who has what to smoke, opportunity, that is one story, we will not touch it now, who has the opportunity, or has prepared, or knows that he can come. go to the countryside or to your house near the city, well, that’s good, we don’t touch these people now, as they say, but we’re talking about cities, mainly regional centers, district centers, there are also cities, which may not be district centers, but are also cities, and the decentralization of this generation, it took place, in general, something was done in order

to make some minimal generation there for the settlement, for the district, for the microdistrict . is it at all possible, because i know that in some cities such works continued, there zhytomyr, kyiv, khmelnytskyi, something was happening somewhere, i am not saying that it should have been announced, it is good that it is not announced and there are no other places written about it, where something was done there, but did this work take place because of what you it is known, regarding the idea of ​​decentralized generation, how effective it can be, how it will provide heat, electricity, in what volumes, in what possibilities, what are the possibilities of this small generation in general, please, in general, i would... divide it in two, in two blocks, let's say, this is distributed generation, which can work constantly and at the accepted price of electricity in the electric power, and backup generation, these can be different, these are different systems, firstly, backup generation, it works for a short time, that is, it works there 8-12 hours, it needs further cooling, it needs a certain service there, distributed

generation can work longer, these are mainly gas-fired, gas turbine systems, but nevertheless... they take much, much longer, these are different capacities, different capabilities, utility companies around the country , in general, they were concerned with putting up and the cities helped them, and international donors helped, it was a colossal help from the countries of the european union, from the usa, from japan, even azerbaijan gave us some or some installations, and that is the main part of it is a diesel-type generator, on liquid fuel, which can be started in order to power the pumps on... for example , heating systems, pumps, water supply systems, but you have to remember that the cost, the cost of electricity from such systems, which are based on liquid fuel, on diesel or on gasoline, it is significantly, significantly more expensive than, this is electricity from the network today, the backup systems are cogeneration machines, there starting from there 800 kw, there 1.5 megawatts and up, there are 5 , 30,

there may be gas pistons, there may be turbine plants, they... give cheaper electricity to porina, they work mainly on gas, but they are much more difficult to install, first of all, larger systems, gas turbine plants are just dozens of trailers, they are dozens of large cars with various equipment, they are long are installed, that is, it is not so easy to connect them, they require special training, a special site, special connections, there are cities that installed them, there are utility companies that received help again in such... they have a car, that is, where there are centralized systems of water supply, heat supply, there somewhere cities at least have the technical possibility to try to install it, where there is an individual one. in many floors, people actually remain hostage to the fact that in the event of gas supply interruptions, well, the house remains in such an uncontrolled state, because in fact

there is no other source of energy supply, heat supply is not provided for in the design principle, that is why it is such a sad, sad part of the city took care, well, kind of part of the cities took care of those who had the opportunity to do it, again, there are cities that are constantly under attack, the same kharkiv, and the same amounts where... regular flights arrive, there are cities in the west, for which, for which it is a little easier, relatively, and, that is, it is not a comparable situation in them, in kharkiv the local generation was actually completely destroyed, and kharkiv is installing small stations to provide electricity, to ensure the possibility of supplying heat, at least from small boiler houses that can be placed, but the overall picture is not no one knows, she it is not supplied indirectly and it may be good that it is not supplied, therefore... just a minute, i have one short question, to what extent alternative types of energy can play any role in this general energy cauldron

, there are no wind generation, solar generation, some other, well that is, it is all there, it is still a general cauldron, well, but to what extent it can have any effect, solar energy, solar energy in ukraine in the winter period is very limited, that is , the amount of sun, the amount of sunny... the number of sunny days, hours , generally there is is very small, so it is very difficult to expect that it will radically change the situation, it is an essential partner in the summer, but it is enough, it is not enough in the winter, the performance of the panel, compared between winter and summer, is bright in bright direct sunlight and in such an overcast the weather, and sometimes it rains and snows, differs by a factor of 20, so it is easy to expect that solar panels will cover our needs. this is absolutely not , well, will it be some individual panels there for one household, maybe something there they are and well, it’s definitely better than there is a conventional one, this big one there, ecoflow, or something else

, well, it’s different, ecoflow gives you the opportunity to quickly charge there, conventionally speaking , lithium-type charging stations, they can give you the opportunity to charge quickly and accumulate this electricity that you need, for example , there in order for the gas boiler to work or for you to have some work there in the house, they will certainly not give you the opportunity to work with the full load of the house, because the full load is, well, divide your energy consumption by 30, approximately how much you consume in winter per day, you need to have such a generation somewhere, roughly speaking, if you are there 400-500 kv, then you need to generate 10, 10-15 kw or or store in the winter, and it is not easy, most likely in such cases. generators will be inevitable, gasoline generators, diesel generators, small ones, they will have a very important role this winter in households. thank you very much, we, we

started this conversation, i think we will come back to it many times, in the fall the winter period has not yet begun, and the heating season has not yet begun, so i think we will return to this conversation with svyatoslav pavlyuk, i thank him very much, the executive director of the association of energy-efficient cities of ukraine, well, here in these stories, you know, protection against enemy attacks is maximum , well, i think that enemy cities will sit somewhere without light, without heat, too, for example, i think that this will also matter, well, this is already a question for the armed forces of ukraine and our partners, yes, and now we will talk about money under time of war oleksandr morchivka is already with me, good evening, please oleksandr, good evening, vasyl, i greet the audience, so in the next few minutes we will find out what is wrong with the minimum wage, why the government froze its growth, we will talk about... prices and preferential mortgages . all the details in a moment. i am

oleksandr morshchevka. greetings, this is a column about money during the war. therefore, the government approved the new amount of payments for relatives of fallen and wounded soldiers. the relevant draft budget was published on the government's website. hence, in the event of the death of the defender, the family members will be paid a one-time cash allowance in the amount of 750 subsistence allowances. minimums, thus the amount for this year is slightly more than uah 2,270,000. as a result of receiving serious injuries, servicemen will have payments depending on the disability group. for the first group, it is more than 1,211 00, for the second - 984 uah, and for the third group - 757 uah. in order to receive financial assistance, the application can be submitted in paper form, or submitted through the online application. if we talk about filling the budget, then it is really a prospect an interesting one appeared from the ministry of digital

transformation, something like that. we are waiting for the realization of this idea, entrepreneurs from different countries will be able to open their own business online in ukraine, as well as pay taxes - informed the vice prime minister for innovation mykhailo fedorov. the first e-residents will be businessmen from slovenia, india, pakistan and thailand. let's see how the registration will start, but i think it's a good idea to start my own business, to invest. to ukraine, it is actually fashionable now. let's go further. the government has simplified some conditions for subsidized mortgages. young people under the age of 25 will be able to get it with an initial contribution of 10% rather than 20%. the first contribution to the purchase of housing under the yeosel program can be a certificate of restoration - the ministry of economy reported. such changes will start as early as october 19.

ukraine will also be able to purchase housing under the program. who previously participated in public housing programs, but their houses were destroyed or remained in the temporarily occupied territory. the first online auctions of the land bank project will start on october 1. starting rental price plots from 900 hryvnias to more than 1 million - said the state property fund. they say that this project should create equal conditions for market participants, where everyone has an opportunity. take part in online auctions under fair conditions, the number of announced auctions for the lease of state land is constantly increasing, there are already 65 of them, they cover nine regions, the largest number of land plots is concentrated in vinnytsia, zaporizhia and cherkasy regions. and the european commission should ban the import of eggs from ukraine to bulgaria, this is the demand made by the minister of agriculture

of agriculture and... food of bulgaria, georgiy takhov. according to the government official, production there is suffering, because over 25 tons of the product arrived in the country in six months, which is five times more than the annual norm. the prices are much lower than those offered by bulgarian manufacturers. and this puts serious pressure on domestic prices, the official added. so we see, first the story with ukrainian grain on the ukrainian-polish border, now we see. it is interesting that ukrainian eggs interfere with bulgaria. let's not monitor this, and farmers from spain demand to establish control over the import of grain from our country is like this. the protest has already taken place since the beginning of the week in front of the european union building in madrid. the industry association calls on the european commission to reduce grain imports from ukraine. they say that they were on the verge of bankruptcy, because almost 8.5 tons of grain arrived in the country that year, and in the first half of the current year.

already 6.5 million tons of ukrainian grain. experts note that now spain receives more than half of our grain, which in general goes to the european union. the owners' association asks the local authorities in this situation to subsidize agricultural production, because, they say, ukrainian farmers are interfering. and the prices of cabbage in ukraine are increasing, analysts of the eastfruit project report. they say that because of the market now, well, there is not enough vegetable shortage, the demand is quite high among consumers, well, farmers are now offering white cabbage for sale from 18 to 25 hryvnias per kilogram, which is on average 22% more expensive than at the end of last week. according to farmers, prices have increased due to the active sale of medium varieties of cabbage varieties, the harvesting of late ones has only begun individual farms, currently... the charter in

ukraine is already more than three times more expensive than in the corresponding period last year. we will continue to talk about prices and more with oleg penzen, executive director of the economic discussion club. he joins the conversation. good evening. i am sincerely glad to see you. on loan mr. oleg, well, i wanted to. yes. and i would like to start with the information that the government will not raise next year. will not raise the minimum wage, but before that, before your answer, i will announce the figure that was published, published on the portal of the ministry of finance, so here is the average salary of a ukrainian official, a civil servant, uah 55,000, but here is the minimum, which is currently uah 800 , and will not be revised next year, comment, and what is there?
