.— crimean peninsula.efinitely seems _ crimean peninsula. yeah, it definitely seems to - crimean peninsula. yeah, it definitely seems to be - crimean peninsula. yeah, it definitely seems to be a - crimean peninsula. yeah, it. definitely seems to be a step crimean peninsula. yeah, it - definitely seems to be a step up in ukrainian activity. ukraine has been attacking targets in crimea for a good long while, largely with drones. but what we have seen in recent weeks and in particular in recent weeks and in particular in recent days is a real upping of the tempo of those attacks and perhaps also an increase in the type of weapons being used. we are seeing combinations of maritime drones, aerial drones, and missiles, both produced here in ukraine but also missiles supplied by britain and france, cruise missiles. the target this morning was an s 408 defence system, a hugely sophisticated, very advanced russian air defence system, involving a radar component but also the air defence missiles, all of which the uk

still the withdrawal of the contingent to the russian federation from the black sea from the crimean peninsulas path be? what do you think from in view of the fact that our military, in principle, constantly emphasize and hint to the russians, wait, because there will be more like this, or they will really wait or it will come to them that the same gestures of goodwill that they have already rehearsed repeatedly during the full-scale invasion, i will remind you that when we liberated only the territory the island of zmiine it is many times smaller than the crimean peninsula it took almost 2 months for the russians to come to the opinion that it is time for their own e on their own territory , but here, of course, it is clear that the deployed more powerful military formations and places of deployment they have many logistics centers on the peninsula they still hope and cling to it but we have convincing arguments and last night they observed it near the crimean coast these so-called boyko towers what are they valuable to you primarily valuable the fact was that we deprived the occupier of the

already been canceled, we will also see how the situation develops there, in general on the crimean peninsulahe situation well, our next guest, a crimean woman, larisa voloshina, our colleague, in connection with our studio, congratulations. you, mrs. larisa, i congratulate you, friends, well, brag about whether you have contacts, as they say, with our temporarily occupied peninsula, what do they say about the last cotton? of course, i have, and here it is interesting, what they say about vavovni , for them it is a signal that we are close, but what they say about how they behave conditionally not ours, here are those who wanted to be there someday: folks, this is really interesting, because many of those who ran for these referendums, well, they are elderly people, middle-aged people there, who thought that they would end up in russia and it would be like everything in the moscow tv series. that means life and grace, they are now absolutely, obviously they are angry, they are angry with russia, with the local authorities, they consider them liars and traitors and advise their children to fle

natalya, of course, it will be further deployed in the position of military facilities on the crimean peninsula unfortunately, not such good news, not such news as we i would like to read a quote from a message from the residents of kherson, how they started at 3:00 a.m. and every 5-10 minutes , the residents of kherson write about tonight . about 52 parishes were counted by the people who wrote this message. well, we know that on in the morning there were three dead and five wounded. and later there were more shellings and also in the village of lviv. unfortunately, a 63-year-old woman was so badly injured that they couldn't save her. they actually do not silence the volley. what do you connect this with? it is simply necessary to perceive information objectively when people are really under attack and are under such increased informational and fire pressure. in fact , our exits are perceived as very powerful explosions. therefore, objectively summing up we will build unfortunately, at this stage, we can already state that in kherson oblast, during this day, which is still ongoing , five resid

with the destruction of the air defense systems on the crimean peninsula, we will have more opportunitiess more. well, of course er , when ukraine will receive long-range missiles, it will be much easier to do this , german deputies wrote to the chancellor of the federal republic of germany schulz in a letter with the demand to transfer missiles to ukraine tauras tau long-range missiles that strike at a distance of 500 km and these long-range missiles allow you to reach the crimean bridge, if ukraine receives long-range missiles and taurus and attacks from , obviously, the problem of liberating the occupied crimea can be solved considering that the peninsula can always turn into an island and we already have volodymyr yelchenko , a diplomat and a person who represented the interests of ukraine in the organization of the united nations and the united states of america in 2015-2020s and before, volodymyr i congratulate you for your sake to see on our air, we have already started with good news from the crimean peninsula about the destruction of the anti-aircraft system e-e triumph, which wa

infrastructure facilities from strikes by the armed forces of ukraine, which means that the crimean peninsula very quickly turn into an island and the russians will flee from the peninsula, as more than one army that tried to occupy once did or capture the crimean peninsula and well, of course , there will be no predictions about the finalization of the russian-ukrainian war, because this week there were also a lot of different opinions about how long the russian-ukrainian war will continue on the sidelines of the un the leaders of the big seven talked about the fact that the war could drag on for 6-7 years , what does david shar po, a military expert from israel, think about it , we will hear the verdict on the broadcast of the program well, i hope that he will comment on how israel still tries in the conditions of a permanent war er to ensure or protect from attacks on the energy infrastructure , what are they doing for this because it will be relevant for us precisely in the autumn er winter period because we see that russia is already striking the energy structure and infrastructure of uk

sky of the annexed peninsula allows ukrainians to hit targets located on the territory of the crimean peninsula and in the black sea before that it was hard to imagine that the ukrainian aviation would begin to destroy the submarine fleet of the black black sea fleet right in the docks in the docks the sevastopol ship repair plant also managed to hit the large amphibious assault ship minsk and well, of course, this is a great victory for the defense forces of ukraine, we have a video of how they damaged the russian amphibious assault ship minsk, let’s see girls if you can be quieter because i will the armed forces of ukraine have already announced an attack on two russian ships of the project 22:160 type vasyl bykov. the ministry of attack of the russian federation said that these two ships, which were in the black sea, did not suffer any damage. - the western part of the black sea. what is project 22,160, these are patrol ships, corvettes in russia, they are on the water , 4 are vasiliy bykov, dmitry rogachev, pavel derzhavin and sergey kotov, precisely about the attack on the latter today and

andriy, we can say that the inhabitants of the crimean peninsula who were mobilized into the occupyingwere already captured, surrendered to capture and went to meet the village of the harrows. of course, in this series, in this situation, in this situation, this a victim of forced mobilization and war crimes and not an accomplice of ugu. as we understand it, these people are treated a little differently than russian prisoners of war, even those who independently decide to surrender . well, definitely because we emphasize once again that this is a victim of a crime and a citizen of ukraine and a ukrainian and in general p andriy please tell me after this case of a brilliant operation just bravo but the whole world i think i saw it when on the russian e-e rotorcraft with the crew there with the commander e about the lands all in ukraine and we saw everything and this interview and everything else and this too. by the way, like with the submarine, it's the first case, as you said, in history, and how can this story develop in your opinion, including taking into account the future offensiv

in your opinion, under what conditions will the russians be generally intolerable on the crimean peninsula, because they are now trying to redeploy, some way, regroup, and this is still possible, after the ukrainians cut this land corridor that you are talking about you say, that is, having reached mariupol and creating a peninsula in this way, well, in fact, an island , if the crimean bridge is destroyed, they really will not... when the crimean fortress goes under water, only long-range missiles, the same attacks, can do it by the way could reach them, because if you look strictly in a straight line, let's say from kirchi, and somewhere there, that bridge is located in that location to gulyai field, which is under our control within 250 km, that is, hymars would have another 50 km leeway for their own security, but to turn crimea into a firework, aviation is needed, aviation is declared, f f161 machine, by the way, a good number, i personally did not expect that such a number would be declared to us at once, but it is important that the weapons that will go with it are there is just a fa

gradually over time the ukrainians feel confident in their ability to cause damage on the crimean peninsula able to control the waters of the northwestern black scene, and crucially, to cut off the russian ability to support its troops in southern ukraine, the troops meeting the challenge of ukraine's counteroffensive in the south. the ukrainians feel they have the ability now, the tactics and equipment to do just that. anchor: saturday marks a year since mahsa amini, a young woman in iran, died in state custody after being arrested for allegedly wrecking hijab -- breaking hijab rules. after several months, the regime succeeded in crushing the following protests but not the widespread desire for change. or correspondent has been looking at whether things 12 months on have changed in iran. a warning, the report contains some distressing images. reporter: they had never taken part in protests before. now in exile in italy, she says she felt compelled to take a stand after mahsa amini's death. that's the sound of the bullet that changed her life. she had rushed to help young protesters who had

vladimir putin's life . rockets they will allow to strike on the territory of ukraine on the crimean peninsulall, and destroy the crimean bridge, i understand, and that is what zelensky is talking about. he says that i hope to convince biden to give us an otakans . this fall, we will listen to what the president of ukraine said. i have hope, i will talk to president biden his opinion and support is very important to me i think he can turn this page of the war he already did it once with heimers it was very important so about the attacks i will talk to president biden again this is not the first the negotiations are progressing, i hope we will receive them in the fall, it is very important for us not to pause in this counteroffensive , that is why i really need them, mr. valentina , the lack of such weapons and the delay in providing these weapons, does this indicate that the west is afraid of a quick counteroffensive by the armed forces of ukraine and according to ungovernability in the russian federation as a result of putin's loss of control over the armed forces of the russian federation ye

this is already the third strike by the armed forces of ukraine on the occupied crimean peninsula duringthe past week. the first strike was on the point pizza command sevastopol, the second strike was on the sakakh military airfield. well, the third strike was on the headquarters of the black sea fleet of the russian federation, friends, for those who are currently watching us on youtube, we offer a survey . today we ask you about this, do you believe in the existence of good russians, yes, no, and your option please write in the comments to our contact politician, diplomat, minister of foreign affairs of ukraine in 2007-2009 volodymyr hrysko - p. mr. serhiy, good health, i wish the same to all of ours. thank you, mr. volodymyr, such a great foreign policy week was for ukraine and ramstein 15 and the general assembly of the oun and the visit of mr. zelensky and talks with president mr. biden and today zelensky is in canada, we are waiting for his speech in the canadian parliament, negotiations with trudeau, let's start with the un general assembly, because the speech of our president was

it will be about the key points that are placed on today on the crimean peninsula. so this is really a solution to the problem, but here again we return to the concept of political will, so there is something that does not allow the americans to take this very decisive step today, and i think that it is the same er. well, the threat of the so-called escalation which well, they continue to trick us in moscow by threatening nuclear weapons, well, this is the only thing that actually seems to me to be the reason for such a slow delivery of the necessary weapons to us . volodymyr zelenskyi also spoke about the results of the meeting with biden, let's listen to what said the president of ukraine , there is a new defense package, artillery, projectiles, engineering means and a long-term agreement. of the peoples of ukraine will be able to produce, in particular , ppu and joseph biden with the announcement of the first abrams in ukraine next week, the first american abrams tanks will be delivered to ukraine we are also focused on strengthening ukraine's air defense capacit

in the future, the defense forces will facilitate the deoccupation, the passage through the crimean peninsulassian occupiers, without this core, which already helps to carry out such operations as strikes on the headquarters of the black sea fleet, or the disposal of russian air defense and entire s-400 divisions, well, without the work of these people, it is difficult to imagine how our defense forces can remotely study the crimea, so yes, the question is, i would say, a very difficult decision, and first of all, i, for example, maybe a little... subjectively, but i stand on the topic of the fact that it is important for our people to be preserved, and if it can be done on the territory of the crimean peninsula, then please take all measures for this, if it can be done only after leaving there, well, then yes, but to be honest, this institution that sounded, me i can imagine how crimean ukrainians react to this, how representatives of other nationalities in crimea react to this, but it is very difficult for me to imagine how the crimean tatars themselves reacted to this call, since they have

, if in february 2014 it was the key to putin's decision to annex the crimean peninsula, why do you thinko long with this case, because 13 years have already passed and it is clear that we we understand the consequences of these kharkiv agreements and we understand what role they have played in our recent history. well, i am not immersed in these matters. i do not know what is happening there , because i know that this is the first time an attempt was made to investigate the situation a long time ago. perhaps the period is correct, but the chosen one because i remember that precisely since 2010, with the arrival of yanukovych, our foreign policy was changed in favor of russia, i know this personally, because then the resignation from the position of deputy minister of foreign affairs was not the same as now, but because of disagreement with the decision well yanukovych's government, they handed over the country to the russians, and from this moment on, it is really necessary to make some kind of analysis of the situation as ukraine seemed, because if we delve into the years, for the sake

i think that this is quite more significant, the escalation of ukraine's armed forces on the crimean peninsula. this is the first time that the ukrainians used western weapons inside the peninsula and specifically in sevastopol. how much damage is there? russian ships , there is little information about this, but what is known was analyzed by the bbc correspondent pavla aksyonov. there were photos of a strong fire, and during the day there were photos that allegedly showed a damaged amphibious ship in the dock. if this photo is real, then the probability that this ship will not be restored is quite high . in the photo, you can see severe damage above the water . in addition, the high temperature during burning can change the properties of the metal. at the same time, the ministry of defense of russia claims that both ships will be able to restore this attack on sevastopol, the largest and most successful since the beginning of the full-scale russian invasion of ukraine in february 22, except if the information about the serious damage and even the destruction of two ships will be confirmed, th

territory today the defense forces of ukraine conducted a unique special operation on the occupied crimean peninsulaof the occupiers saka let's see the drone here is this gesture i don't understand bees oh oh you what a handsome man don't be afraid the commentators just don't quite understand what is happening is obvious, that's why friends are commenting off-screen for those who are now watching us on youtube and facebook. on youtube, we are conducting a survey. today we ask you about this, are you preparing for a difficult winter in the ukrainian energy industry? well, of course, this question is related to the shelling of the ukrainian energy infrastructure. so, the options for answers are yes, no, your option. please write in the comments to our contact viktor yagun, major general of the security service ukraine is in reserve, the former deputy head of the security service of ukraine, mr. generals, i congratulate you and i am glad to see you on our broadcast. good health, it was not an easy night in ukraine. today is the international day of peace, and on this international day of peace, russia

send tam missiles to ukraine, these missiles will allow to hit the territory of ukraine on the crimean peninsulait says the same zelenskyi says that i hope to convince biden to give us an otakan already this fall we will listen to what the president of ukraine said. i hope i will talk to president biden. his opinion and support are very important to me. i think he can turn this page of the war. he has already done it once. it's with heimers it was very important so about the attacks i'll talk to president biden again this is not the first negotiation we're moving forward i hope we 'll get them in the fall it's very important for us not to pause in this counteroffensive that's why i really need them, mr. valentina. does the lack of such weapons and the delay in providing these weapons indicate that the west is afraid of a quick counteroffensive by the armed forces of ukraine and, accordingly, ungovernability in the russian federation due to the loss of putin's control over the armed forces of the russian federation? together with mr. academician volodymyr gorbulin, er, in the last er, in the extr

did constantly from the beginning of not only the full-scale invasion and occupation of the crimean peninsula that all military targets on the peninsula would be legitimate targets for attacks by the defense forces. however, it still had no effect and, let's say, persuade the russians not to go to the occupied crimea, at least this summer when the ministry of defense of ukraine predicted the assault season, they called on the russians . however, despite all the calls, they saw these queues just on the bridges on the kerch bridge and saw among the russians many willing to take part in suicidal tourism and hot weather hot, of course, mrs. olga, by the way, we are talking about diplomatic efforts to liberate the peninsula. however, in reality, there are a large number of people, and we have seen that they are not interested in diplomatic efforts. even at the real danger of losing your life under fire, for example , being on a military object such as the crimean bridge, which moves military equipment, fuel, etc. so that they well, if they do not help yes, the deoccupation of the crimean peninsula

what is important for our people to survive, and if this can be done on the territory of the crimean peninsulae take all measures for this, if it can be done only after leaving there, well, then yes, but to be honest, this bookmark that sounded, i can imagine how the ukrainians react to it , crimean representatives reflect on this other nations, in the crimea, but it is very difficult for me to imagine how the crimean tatars reacted to this call, since they have a special attachment to this land, and to leave it again for any reason, for some of them, for for most of them it is quite traumatic, and i will tell you this, and to all the viewers, there are elderly people, people i don’t know, who have been in exile for a long time , ten years, they absolutely do not want to leave the peninsula even in these conditions, and they encourage their young people there to hide somewhere or go, because really, well, listen, to become part of the terrorist army, when there is such a threat, absolutely objectively, it is not the best option and to surrender as a prisoner, perhaps, but it is difficult in th

is important for our people to be preserved and uh, if it can be done on the territory of the crimean peninsula use all for this measures, if it can be done only after leaving there, well, it means so, but to be honest, this institution, which sounded, i can imagine how the crimean ukrainians reflect on it, how the representatives of other nationalities in crimea also reflect on it, but it is very difficult for me... how about this call it was the crimean tatars who reacted, since they have a special attachment to this particular land, and to leave it again for any reason, for some of them, for most of them, it is quite traumatic, well, i 'll tell you so, and and to all viewers, elderly people, people who, well, i don't know, who were there, spent a long time in exile... they absolutely do not want to leave the peninsula even in these conditions and they encourage their young people there to hide somewhere or go , really, well listen, become part of the terrorist army, when there, well, there is such a threat, absolutely objectively, it is not the best option, to surrender as a prisoner, maybe,

this appears to - represent a significant escalation of ukraine's tax over the crimean peninsula, ande black sea fleet. we've seen attacks in the past using drones. this, it seems, used air launched cruise missiles, probably storm shadow and scalp, the two variants of the cruise missiles supplied by britain and france. at the head of ukraine's airforce, he congratulated his pilots for their role in the attack, and then when you look at what damage was done, it now emerges that two vessels which were undergoing repairs in dry dock in sevastopol harbour were hit. 0ne in sevastopol harbour were hit. one of them is a large amphibious landing ship, the minsk, the other is a diesel electric submarine, the kind of submarine that russia has used to launch cruise missiles at ukraine. that would be the first time that ukraine has managed to hit a russian submarine. it has not been confirmed yet, but those are the reports that we have been getting. this, i think, reports that we have been getting. this, ithink, marks reports that we have been getting. this, i think, marks quite a significant esc

andriy, we can say that the residents of the crimean peninsula who were mobilized into the occupyinghave already fallen into the prisoners surrendered to the prisoners and went to meet the village of the harrows. of course, in this series, in this situation, in this situation, this is a victim of forced mobilization and war crimes, and not an accomplice to these people, as we understand, a slightly different attitude than to the russians prisoners of war, even those who independently make the decision to surrender well, definitely because we emphasize once again that this is a victim of a crime and a citizen of ukraine and a ukrainian. a russian rotorcraft with a crew there with a commander, all about the lands in ukraine , and we all saw this interview and everything else, and this too. by the way, how about a submarine, it’s the first case, as you said, in history. history can develop according to your opinion, including taking into account the future offensive on crimea. well, in all directions. well, this is up to the leadership of the armed forces to decide, but in principle, ho

and where else can they hide on the territory of the crimean peninsula?re are still such opportunities to hide somewhere, as the sailors say, they are the same kind of people. it comes to mind that balaklava is closed from the sea side, a bay that is quite effective. we remember in soviet times there was even a repair and restoration enterprise for the repair and maintenance of submarines . novorossiysk itself should not be removed from the agenda, but in any case, the further away it is, the more difficult it is for the enemy to implement his plans, because we will remember during a large-scale missile attack when we they destroyed a naval base and a submarine in the waters of sevastopol, there was also an attack by drones on a ship of the black sea fleet that was crossing the sea. it seems that this is a new tactic of the ukrainian defense forces, which are already on the move and are ready to destroy enemy ships at times and there is a result, let’s remember the same one seems to be a ship of the black sea fleet which was destroyed, and russian propaga

we see strikes on command posts and military airfields located on the crimean peninsula. in your opinion, when will the moment come when the russians will simply flee from the crimean peninsula and possibly even towards turkey into the black sea, as more than one army has fled. during different wars? i think two things are lacking in our armed forces forces the first are long-range missiles and concrete-blasting missiles, such as the german taurus and the american atakams, which you and i just talked about on the air, and the second are fighters, modern f16 fighter aircraft, but with modern radars, with a modern digital sky . about which i have already spoken, and for our ministry of defense of ukraine, this is a very urgent task and it is important that such a software product appears, as soon as these two things are received, the armed forces of ukraine, our general staff, then we will really have not just an even balance, but a weapon for the liberation of the temporarily occupied crimea, the south and east of ukraine, this week the defense forces of ukraine attacked t

andriy, we can say that the inhabitants of the crimean peninsula who were mobilized into the occupyingre already captured, surrendered to capture and went to meet the village of borony. of course, in this situation in this situation, this is a victim of forced mobilization and war crimes, and not an accomplice, ugu e to these people, as we understand it, has a slightly different attitude than to russian prisoners of war, even those who independently make the decision to surrender themselves. and a ukrainian, and in general, mr. andriy will be. tell me, please, after this case of a brilliant operation , just bravo, but the whole world. i think i saw it when on a russian helicopter with a crew there , with a commander, about the lands, everyone is in ukraine, and we everyone has seen this interview and it's still different and this too by the way, what about the submarine is the first case as you said in history, and how can this story develop in your opinion, including taking into account the future offensive on crimea well and in all directions well, this is up to the leadership of the

this is a confirmed fact, every attack launched on the crimean peninsula is conducted and directed byintelligence officers, literally all remote sensing satellites have already been put under arms , even commercial ones, they are at the tactical level, the picture is up to aviation alliance aircraft enter the black sea waters, circle for several hours, sometimes it takes almost a whole day to collect data day, and then, following the will of the all-seeing eye, ukraine sets off on another suicidal attack on itself. they are already not the owners for a long time. after all, the information is not completely transmitted to the ukrainians; kiev sees only what he is allowed to see . initially, the data comes from satellites , they are processed and certain objects of interest are determined, and then , as a rule, unmanned aerial vehicles are sent for clarification. all this information, of course, does not go immediately. it goes to headquarters. uh, first of all. nato of this brussels pentagon information that came. it is, accordingly, then sent to the general staff of ukraine which, ac

more sophisticated and more and more confident in their ability to hit russian targets in the crimean peninsulase — destroying nine aircraft at one of the russian air on the peninsula. but now we're seeing quite a complex series of operations using drones in the air and at sea, and also crucially, cruise missiles, supplied recently by britain and france. with each advent of new weaponry, the ukrainians feel that they have a greater ability to do more damage. we saw the attack on sevastopol harbour the other day in which two vessels, a landing craft and a submarine, were both damaged severely. the british ministry of defence says that some of that damage, frankly, is not repairable and that the damage to the drydock facility where those two vessels were undergoing repairs is also very significant. that facility crucial to the maintenance of russia's black sea fleet will also be out of action for some time. so, gradually over time, the ukrainians feel more and more confident of their ability to cause damage on the crimean peninsula with two main objectives — one, to be able to control the waters

, while they are trying to stop the advance towards the crimea, and the realization that the crimean peninsulaected in them. so far, based on the contingent that has accumulated on on the peninsula, you need to understand that there are really a lot of them there ms. natalya, i want to ask you about the island of change. you stated that the russian troops activated their tactical aviation there in the black sea in the direction of this island. what goal are they pursuing and why are snakes so important to them? dominance in the black sea, since the enemy no longer feels the power behind them in the use of a surface submarine fleet, they have switched to an air component and are trying to demonstrate their presence and threat in civilian life from the air a lot of commercial navigation routes are concentrated around the serpentine seabed, which can be used by civilian shippers, so the enemy tries to keep its activity there by occasionally dropping controlled air strikes and other explosive devices from the position that ukraine is not able to ensure the safety of shipping, in contrast to the hu

the crimean peninsula was annexed from ukraine by russia in 2014.kraine has accused russia of attacking power infrastructure in what they called "energy terror" as winter nears. our senior international correspondent orla guerin is in the ukrainian capital, kyiv tonight, and joins us now. is the counteroffensive intensifying?— is the counteroffensive intensifying? is the counteroffensive intensi inc? ~ , ., intensifying? well, it has been a bus da , intensifying? well, it has been a busy day, sophie. _ intensifying? well, it has been a busy day, sophie. from - intensifying? well, it has been a | busy day, sophie. from ukraine's point of view, a successful one. it has managed to hit the headquarters of russia's black sea fleet in the crimean peninsula with a missile. we know there is damage to the building. we are not sure how much. one ukrainian spokesman has said on social media, we wanted a bigger hole. but undoubtedly, ukraine could hardly have picked a more symbolic target. it's a headline grabbing attack, it is a showy attack. it is not the fir

the crimean peninsula, this is an enormous achievement by the ukrainian armed forces because let's notch next year will mark the ten year anniversary of the annexation of crimea sought the crimean peninsula as well as being an important staging grant for the russian invasion of ukraine in the last 19 months or so it's probably the prestige symbol of vladimir putin and to slow annexation of the different parts of ukraine and one other point about this strike, coming at the same time as a report of ukraine being granted this us system, i think the sort of symbolic impact is that you will probably expect the ukrainians to pull off long distance precision strikes of this nature against highly sensitive and strategic russian targets that are by the way, sebastopol is hundreds and hundreds of kilometres away from ukrainian cities of dnipro and it shows what can be achieved with weapons of that length and range. with weapons of that length and ran . e. ., , with weapons of that length and ranue. ., , ., , , ., range. previous to this trip to the us the americans _ range. previous to this trip

so the crimean peninsula as well as being an important staging grant for the russian invasion of ukrainelast 19 months or so it's probably the prestige symbol of vladimir putin and to slow annexation of the different parts of ukraine. and one other point about this strike, coming at the same time as a report of ukraine being granted this us system, i think the sort of symbolic impact is that you will probably expect the ukrainians to pull off long distance precision strikes of this nature against highly sensitive and strategic russian targets that are... and by the way, sebastopol is hundreds and hundreds of kilometres away from ukrainian cities of dnipro and it shows what can be achieved with weapons of that length and range. local media in nigeria is reporting that six students abducted by gunmen at a university in the north west state of zamfara have been rescued by the army. students described armed bandits arriving on motorcycles and firing indiscriminately during the incident in gusau in the early hours of friday. the state governor's spokesperson said 35 people were taken, the maj
