we asked him by the fate of snake island. you know, the kremlin is communicating, i think symbolically here saying that they killed some ukrainian soldiers while they tried to plant the flag. the ukrainian defense ministry has provided video of the planting of the flag that the kremlin has made all kinds of claims before, rather implausible. for example, they took out a whole cadre of ukrainian generals and commanders in one fell swoop, and 10 of those m triple 7 american howitzers in the same strike. and we know they have some targeting problems. and so there is a messaging from the kremlin, which is for a domestic audience that doesn't necessarily correspond to the facts on the ground . and i think it's fair to say that because there's no video evidence provided there's all kinds of video, but everything in this conflict. but i think is really the takeaway here is that the kremlin c snake on that is something really symbolic. because as we heard in that report, it was where the soldiers held out, acted defiantly towards a r

yeah, snake island if you know a bled recapture. there's a story coming from the kremlin whereby russian forces bombarded ukrainian troops who had gone to plant the ukrainian flag on the island. it has not been confirmed ukrainians were able to do that. we have video from the ukraine defense ministry of them doing at once the russians pulled out on june the 30th saying they were doing it as a humanitarian. it gesture, however, the truth is they were coming under constant bombardment from ukrainian artillery sake. i, and i think our viewers will recall was that famous holland were a handful of ukrainian soldiers were gathered and famous. he told a russian war ship that had ordered them to surrender, to go yourself russian warship. they were then captured. the island was then taken by russian soldiers and that war ship itself the flagship of the russian fleet. the moscow was later sunk. so all kinds of symbolism around his little piece of and which is close to bulgaria, not massively significant, but significant symbolically clearly fo

well, because snake island was one of the 1st russian victories on the very onset of the war when there are, you know, be to cover this island, giving them, you know, the control of her, the black sea and her strategic. well, exactly, for that reason ukraine, an armed forces be gaining control a snake island means every gain control of this part of the black sea. now russia, russia said that it was a gesture of goodwill that they didn't intend to block humanitarian efforts. but, you know, with this choice, continuing indiscriminately on civilian targets, one might wonder what these good will really is anyone else out there in odessa for us? thank you. emma. now the face of russia's war, ukrainian lawmakers held a session to welcome their progress towards joining the european union. the 27 member block cleared the way for you, france, accession, last month. and in a symbolic moment, the you flag was placed in the chamber of the garage narada that ukraine's parliament european commission president also funded line joined by video link, urging the legislator to make more reform. su tacker

blow to efforts to tackle climate change, limiting er gtht'nmovs'enr'in ukraine, rn forces from snake islandl but strategic island in the backseat which is forces captured -- black and see, which its forces captured on the first day of the invasion. the russian defense ministry claims the soldiers had completed their assignments and left. russians had a missile defense system installed there that was a constant source of threat. these pictures show ukrainian drones, which targeted vessels nearby. this veo reportedly shows the island being bombarded. as you can see, plumes of smoke indicate some sort of result. our correspondent in ps told us how people have been reacting -- in kyiv told us how people have been reacting. >> the fact that russia was able to seize the island with such speed represented how they were attacking ukraine from lots of different angles, but it al of . it became a real lightning rod to some of what the ukrainians said was defiance. recapturing snake island might not be massive on a military level but it is a morale boost for ukraine. lewis: what will happen to snake i

we've already seen defect western weapons in snake islands. basically. everyone hearing here agrees that that would not have been possible without those western systems at 1st of all anti ship rockets that made it impossible for the russians to restock and re supply their garrison there. and then it was the rocket artillery, the high ma systems that allowed ukraine to hit that island from the ukraine controlled coastline of the desert regions didn't have to fly planes or drones or send rockets there. they were able to basically batter the russian forces there with a constant stream of those artillery shells. and that is basically to something they weren't able to do until their systems arrived. but i think in terms of the quantity, they're still really, really, really struggling in those high muslims, ukraine for now and has 4 of them that they say they need the dozens, if not hundreds of them to really be able to have a child pushing russia out of ukraine, m f. a. now you see basically along the front lines ukraine playing for time, hoping that they can

and speaking of the black sea, are russian troops have withdrawn from snake island. i strategic island located south of odessa. how do you think that is going to change the situation in the black sea? i'd new thing is that a game changer, clara, because the snake snake island was actually seized, captured by 2 russian war ships on the very onset of the war. and it became both a symbolic or ireland and a very strategic won strategic. why? well, because it's just off the coast here of odessa and he gives control to the entire maritime region. so the fact that ukrainian troops re captured this island is very important. we know that on this island, they were also me size launchers from russia. so at this is also very important and of course, symbolic because remember at the very beginning of the war there were, does border guards have told russian or russian sailors where to go? they did a wants a surrender, and these made them a symbol of ukrainian resilience. so both as strategic and a symbolic victory here for ukraine and manuel shes in odessa. thank you so much for yo

those alone snake island sits a long way from the brunt of the fighting. still centered on the dawn boss to the east. here russia ground assault has slowed its forces or regrouping. after taking melissa jones, i had of an unexpected assault on the done yet korean. but the face of difficult road ahead as ukrainian troops reinforced defensive positions with western weapons that is to be july efficient, usable. finally, we can feel that the western artillery, the weapons we received from our partners, have started working very effectively yet the accuracy is exactly what is needed. losing our defenders inflict very noticeable strikes on depots and other locations that are important for the occupiers logistics. and this significantly reduces the offensive potential of the russian army sport. their losses will only increase every week as will the difficulty of supplying them. despite the brief pause in russia's advance, missiles are still bombarding the key cities of slogans and crumb adults. for the civilians who remain here the front lines anal, creeping dang

this attack came soon after russian troops withdrew from snake island just to south of odessa in the black sea there. tell us more about that. well, it's interesting because of course, ukraine, an armed forces are, you know, this was very important for them. this was an island that was taken on the very onset of the war, and it was a huge blow to the moral of ukrainian tubes. then there was, you know, dose border guards, ukrainian border. gus was told the russian war ship where to go and it had become quite lenders are legendary here and quite a symbol of ukraine and resistance sort of thought that ukraine has a hold of snake island is very important. symbolically so, so very important strategically because it gives them back control of parts of the black sea, which they hot before the start of the war. but of course, this is a really a defeat and resounding defeat for russia. so maybe those charts came as retaliation, but we cannot really tell because every day there's more shedding, you know, upon civilians here in ukraine. manuel, thank you very much. that was our correspondent am

the excitement didn't last long, russia eventually took control the island, by seizing snake island,ively set up a naval blockade, stopping anything from getting in or out of ukraine's biggest port city of odessa. this noticeably included food cargo. ukraine is traditionally one of the world's leading suppliers of grain, and sunflower oil. so, for four months, now the russians have occupied the island, blocking anything the tries to move past. and because ukraine had very limited naval capacity, liberating the island has made almost impossible. until today. ukraine announced today that after a successful artillery and attack tonight, all russians are now gone for the island. quote, cocoon, no russian troops on the snake island anymore, said the top advisor to president zelenskyy, more could boom news to follow. >> russia denies, it and said it was a voluntary withdrawal. a quote, gesture of goodwill, to show that they are no longer obstructing the ports. , but they left in the middle of the night on two speedboats, leaving behind a column of smoke. so, you tell me. this, of course, i

that’s all i can say about this p serhiy wanted to ask you about the current situation on the island of the snakes coming. the information is that the enemy was mining the water area, that he could mine the island itself. well, in general, what did it look like? we understand that the enemy has already escaped, showed his willingness to escape , actually escaped from the island, but how did it all look ? tell me, please, about the question you asked about the mining of the possible water area around the island of the snake, the territory itself, it is clear that the enemy destroyed samples of the weapons of the buildings that he was building there. what else was there from our of the armed forces, our military, uh, talk about this information, and it is necessary to check everything, of course, when there is a physical presence of our military, they will check all this, and then, of course, they will tell us, the society, to what extent, if it is possible to say, the physical presence of the armed forces of ukraine will of course be there. but again, not you have to hurry to do everything in your

we also increased the temperature of the enemy who left the island of snake, but i will add some interestinghow they left the island. it turns out that on the 30th, under such constant blows, a decision was made to leave snake and for this they used two e-e boats there type raptor several tugboats and in order to secure in the air they kept as many as 20 fighter jets that were supposed to cover this let's put it this way , the surrender and the abandonment of the island, it is interesting that in the air the enemy was even forced raised e-e long-range detection aircraft a a 50 who were watching this situation and it is interesting that after all the e-e units of the snake snake left immediately, they even involved bombers tu 24 to carry out an attack on the remains of that equipment that the enemy left on the island of the snake so ended ingloriously for the rashists, here is this pp i am with the sea chernobaivka and this is what we have to repeat more than once in other cities and areas where the enemy is trying to hold our territory and is trying to carry out some offensive actions that t

russian forces withdrew from snake island and the black sea today, how significant is that? his is a small island. it is big when it comes to the symbolic and strategic importance. it is that the heart of concerns over the food crisis, a grain crisis in this part of the world. russia is accused of burning, robbing, also blocking the export of ukrainian grain. today moscow says they have left the islands that they have no intention of doing that. something that ukraine ridiculed as simply not true. my question is if this has an impact on the grain crisis, the food crisis, experts seem. to think it will not. . the black sea is still dominated by russian warships, another question is if this has any sort of military significance. again the assessment is not really, fighting is focused on the east of the country in the donbas region. russia continues to make gains despite weapons being sent to ukraine. they cannot seem to be arriving quick enough or in great enough numbers. the importance, the impact tonight of the recapture of the snake island is that it is a more i'll boost to

volodymyr, i want to discuss with you the situation that has developed around the island of snakes, theeo-occupiers did not comply with the statements about the deoccupation of the island, which they publicly called before that yes called a gesture of goodwill, and there were recorded attacks from russian su-30 fighters that bombarded the island with phosphorous bombs. how do you assess this? why are they doing it? well, first of all, this statement is about brass of good will, it's not just a lie. it's a primitive and, er, very, er, unreliable propaganda, so it's nothing new, we're already used to such and such lying manipulations, really, yes, this is a typical manipulation, but you have to pay attention, they ran away so quickly from snake island because they left this island first of all because they could not hold it, they were constantly under attack under attack ukrainian artillery under attack from anti-missile missiles, but from ship missiles and they could not provide just normal the normal functioning of their garrison on the island of snakes and that's why they decided to qu

scott, what more can you tell us about what's happening on snake island? that the russians said they vacated that island as a goodwill gesture to the ukrainians because whoever controls that island essentially controls the shipping lanes in that part and along that stretch of the southern ukrainian coastline, but that goodwill has lasted only about 24 hours or so. the ukrainians, as boris mentioned, have claimed that the russians have dropped a phosphorus bomb. this is significant because phosphorus burns brightly, usually used for tracer rounds, for instance. it also burns extremely hot. and can do a lot of damage to human flesh. so perhaps this is meant to send a message to the ukrainians who say that they are in the process of demining and clearing snake island so that they can reestablish a permanent post there. perhaps this is a message from the russians that they ought to think twice before going back to try to set up a military outpost on that island. meanwhile, i want to mention as well the situation in odesa. the missile strikes there, three of th

so, snake island. it has an important role not only for the protection of the southern coast, for the further solution of the food crisis, as far as we are close to solving this issue, its strategic position is 35 km from the nearest point on land, but it is dry, even the delta of the danube river, understanding that passage through the black sea corridor to istanbul is still blocked by the russian navy, then ukraine, with the liberation of snake island, frees up its capacity and has the ability to transport grain by sea, first along the ukrainian coast to the danube delta, where it enters romanian ports, from there it is transshipped to the railway the transport that goes to the south of the romanian black sea coast is known to the portraitist, and already from constanta along the coast, the border of bulgaria along the bulgarian coast already begins here, and cargoes with grain from ukraine and beyond are transferred to istanbul there is already a safe way from istanbul to other ports of the world th

well, then, please tell me what happened on the snake island, well, the russians said that it was their good will from the goal is to start unblocking ukrainian ports, export ukrainian grain through the ports, save humanity from the threat of famine, and so on . the ukrainians, the ministry of defense of our operational command in the south, say that the russian garrison was there and was not there at all. supply communications bc brought it and other ways were cut by the ukrainian armed forces and plus long-range ukrainian artillery they talked about the participation of all of russia in the ukrainian i apologize to the famous howitzer bohdan, its name is that it seems to be produced in a single copy but it functions, fights with the russians and ours also used it precisely for the artillery bombardment of this island and simply, well, the organization - this russian could not get anywhere from the island except to go back to the occupied crimea, what really what happened? what do you know? well, the russians almost don’t lie after 10 days of intense rocket and artillery bombardment, w

tactics of the enemy on the water have changed after the liberation of the island, regarding the island of the snakeonce again they can congratulate all of us with the fact that the territory of the odesa region has been completely cleared of the russian invaders, because i will remind you of zmiiny island, the administrative unit is a village in the white izmaiv district of the odesa region, that is, odesa has become such a pr region that we have freed completely from the occupiers have joined this list of regions. and as for the military operation, it has been completed, it remains under the fire control of our armed forces. well , there are military measures, as well as the liberation of snake island , they led to the fact that, of course, the regrouping of the black sea fleet in they are present in this part of the water area of ​​the black sea. already at the beginning of the 11th, i said in a conversation that today there are three missile carriers, there is one large amphibious ship , there are constant maneuvers, but it was possible throw them away physically from our shores of our coasts if

with rockets, the enemy significantly damaged the pier of snake island, the current strike with two missiles. this was reported by the speaker of the odesa regional military administration, serhiy bratchuk. this happened today , july 7, in the morning . 35 tons of grain were destroyed, according to preliminary information, there were no victims. well, let's remind you that the russians made sacrifices of goodwill, as they say, while fleeing from the snake island, as they say. but in reality to get but nuts from the armed forces of ukraine, but in such public arguments they say that we do not want to compliment the efforts of the un to unblock the type of ukrainian ports and in no way do we have a relationship with the food crisis in the world, so let ukraine export its grain, but are there any prospects the unblocking of our ports in general before the end of the war, now we will ask this not only from vadym denisenko, the adviser to the minister of internal affairs, he is already in touch with us, congratulations, mr. vadym well, some not very good not very good not until the end o

ukrainian military completely freed odesa from the occupiers by driving the russians from the snake islandsia had powerful radio intelligence positions there, they occupied the odesa region, bessarabia, transnistria, about it said oleksiy danilov, secretary of the nsdc, there is currently no enemy on the territory of the island, however , retreating from the snake occupier could mine the territory, the surrounding waters declare in the operational command south that the liberation of the snake island significantly changes the situation in the black sea. president volodymyr zelensky is convinced, he thanked the ukrainian soldiers for this liberation, but emphasized that the occupiers may try to return to zmiiny island - it is a strategic point and this significantly changes the situation in the black sea, it does not guarantee safety this does not guarantee that the enemy will not return, but it already significantly limits the actions of the occupiers. step by step, we will push them out of our sea, from our land, from our sky in donetsk region. the ukrainian armed forces repelled several

it has just withdrawn from the strategically important snake island south of odessa. that may make it possible to restore c access to odessa as important. d. w correspond. manuel shaws is covering developers for us from the ukranian city of odessa. earlier, i asked her about this latest missile strike in odessa region. well, this her miss. so he turned a residential area, i would say, once again in ukraine, this is near odessa and at the time we speaking this already, 17 people which have been found dead as over 30 people injured along to day to have one child among the people injured. you have 4 children and a pregnant women, the emergency services, the 1st responders, they're still on the scene as to the searching to rebel or to find more for survivors. this is just another day with just another attack on civilians. it, in what seems to be indiscriminate shedding in spite of russia are continuing to say that it does targets that does a much military targets. how born horrible pama is. the odessa region is ukraine in a good position to defend it. well 1st off, terry,

after all, er, snake island is also strategic.e need it because we remember that snake island, apart from symbolism, is that our the military rule in a known direction, the russian ship moscow, and what is it important and why does ukraine need it, in addition to the fact that these are more changes separately, the question of symbolism also solves specific military tasks. if we take into account how active the russian federation is after destruction by a cruiser, moscow tried to bake this and er island by various means, starting from air defense, then the system of radio-electronic intelligence of electronic warfare. it also provided there er other infrastructure projects related to the general strengthening of the military power of this island, there were even plans to drag there anti- ship bal complex, which would threaten the northwestern part of the black sea, the island actually provides the possibility of controlling the water area where civilian and military ships pass in particular, with the same odesa, and actually he pl
