00:03:23Greetings to everyone watching us, this is Slava's news, it
00:03:25can also be watched on Espresso in the studio, Oksana Vysochenskaya. Ukraine
00:03:29receives all real and reliable formats for a ceasefire and
00:03:33war. Kyiv is ready not to strike Russian
00:03:36energy and counts on Russia's
00:03:39similar readiness and on an agreement with the President of the United
00:03:42States. Regarding this situation. The Armed
00:03:45Forces have received all necessary orders. Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated this in
00:03:49his evening address on October 11 in response to Trump's post
00:03:53that Ukraine and the Russian Federation allegedly agreed to a so-called
00:03:57energy truce. The President of Ukraine emphasized
00:04:00that this is good news for everyone and it is important that it becomes part of
00:04:04reality. At the same time, the Russian State Duma reported that they
00:04:07have no information about such agreements. And the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of
00:04:11Ukraine, on the same evening after Zelenskyy's address, published
00:04:14a statement that the Kremlin had indeed violated the truce
00:04:18immediately after its announcement, by striking the Kharkiv
00:04:21TPP-5.
00:04:24There is a statement from the President of the United States that
00:04:27an energy ceasefire has been
00:04:30reached, this is good news
00:04:33for everyone, it is important that this
00:04:36becomes part of
00:04:38reality, Ukraine supports all real and reliable
00:04:42formats for a ceasefire and
00:04:44an end to the war. Ukraine is ready not to strike
00:04:47Russian energy, and
00:04:50we count on Russia's similar
00:04:54readiness and on the agreement of the President of
00:04:57the United States of America. Regarding this,
00:05:01we, we welcome such
00:05:03an agreement.
00:05:05This week, Ukraine is to receive about 3 billion euros
00:05:09in military support from the European Union. This was reported
00:05:12by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy after a telephone conversation with the head of
00:05:16the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen. He also
00:05:19thanked for the previous tranche of 1 billion and 240 million
00:05:22euros for defense needs, which has already arrived in Ukraine. During
00:05:26the conversation, Zelenskyy informed the European official about Russian
00:05:30strikes on the energy infrastructure of Kyiv and Kharkiv region.
00:05:33In particular, on October 11, a Russian drone attacked
00:05:37a power plant in the capital, after which power went out in a number of
00:05:40districts. The President emphasized that partner support is
00:05:44necessary to protect Ukrainians amid continued Russian
00:05:47attacks.
00:05:52Ukraine and Canada discussed strengthening ballistic missile defense
00:05:55and preparing for winter. Canada actively participated in the development
00:05:59of a joint anti-ballistic system with Europe, Frey,
00:06:02which should strengthen the protection of other countries. This was
00:06:06reported by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy after a conversation with Canadian Prime Minister
00:06:09Mark Carney. The parties also raised the issue of an
00:06:13energy truce proposed by the US President. Ukraine supports
00:06:17this initiative, but now awaits Russia's response and its
00:06:21decision to cease attacks on Ukrainian energy
00:06:24infrastructure. Zelenskyy thanked Canada and personally
00:06:27Mark Carney for supporting
00:06:29Ukraine.
00:06:33The administration of US President Donald Trump threatens to stop
00:06:36the supply of American weapons to Ukraine if the defense forces do not
00:06:40stop striking Russian energy.
00:06:44This is reported by the Financial Times with reference to European
00:06:47officials who learned about telephone conversations between American
00:06:50officials and representatives of Ukraine and Europe. According to the
00:06:54publication, Washington also threatened to stop intelligence
00:06:57sharing with Kyiv and block the Pearl mechanism, through which NATO
00:07:01countries purchase American weapons for Ukraine.
00:07:05The White House declined to confirm or comment on these
00:07:08reports.
00:07:12Ukraine uses asymmetric strikes to
00:07:15reduce Russia's ability to launch ballistic attacks. In
00:07:19September and early October, defense forces hit eight Russian
00:07:23launchers, three were destroyed, and five more
00:07:25were damaged. This was reported by Defense Minister Yevhen
00:07:28Khmara. According to him, these strikes have already forced Russian troops
00:07:32to cancel or change planned attacks.
00:07:35At the same time, the existing and potential supplies of anti-aircraft
00:07:39missiles are not enough to fully protect Ukraine from
00:07:42ballistic missiles, so Kyiv continues negotiations with
00:07:45partners on accelerating supplies. Khmara
00:07:48emphasized that Ukraine needs tens and hundreds of missiles, not
00:07:52single deliveries. The Minister also emphasized that the effectiveness
00:07:56of intercepting conventional Russian Shaheds exceeds
00:07:5890%, and against jet drones,
00:08:02interceptor drones are already being used. In addition,
00:08:05since the beginning of Ukrainian operations against Russian
00:08:07oil refining, according to Khmara, 51.1% of the
00:08:11Russian Federation's capacity
00:08:13has been disabled.
00:08:16Russian troops are developing optical-navigation systems for
00:08:20strike drones that allow them to navigate the terrain
00:08:24without using satellite navigation and not to be
00:08:28affected by electronic warfare equipment. This was reported
00:08:31by the President's advisor on the development of technological defense areas,
00:08:35Serhiy Beskresnov, known as Flash. According to him, photos of the
00:08:38area, including from mapping services, are uploaded to drones.
00:08:42During the flight, the device compares them with the image from
00:08:46its own camera. Such systems are already used on
00:08:49Russian Molnia, V2U and Lancet drones. In
00:08:52addition, the Susan navigation system was recently
00:08:56discovered on Geran-4 and Geran-5
00:08:59attack drones. Beskresnov emphasizes that drones
00:09:03that navigate by images of the terrain can be
00:09:06more resistant to the effects
00:09:07of REP.
00:09:12In Poland, a man was detained who threatened Prime Minister Donald
00:09:16Tusk and Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz. This was reported
00:09:19by Tusk himself. Earlier, the Polish police received
00:09:22information about a possible assassination attempt on the head of government and
00:09:26the head of the defense department. After that, Interior
00:09:29Minister Marcin Kierwiński and special services coordinator Tomasz
00:09:32Siemoniak ordered the necessary measures to be taken. According
00:09:36to preliminary information, the threats could have come
00:09:39remotely. Details about the detainee and the circumstances of the
00:09:42case are currently not being
00:09:44reported by the Polish authorities.
00:09:47European intelligence agencies warned heads of defense companies about
00:09:51the threat of possible assassinations organized by Russia. This is reported
00:09:54by the Financial Times with reference to representatives of five
00:09:58European intelligence services. According to the publication,
00:10:01not only the heads of large enterprises are at risk, but also
00:10:04employees of small companies that produce drones and components
00:10:08for them. Due to the warning from the special services, some
00:10:11managers have already strengthened their personal security, including
00:10:15during foreign trips. According to intelligence, Russian
00:10:19GRU may be involved in preparing such operations, cooperating with
00:10:23criminal groups and using agent
00:10:26networks. Intelligence agencies believe that this is how Moscow wants
00:10:29to intimidate Europe's defense industry and weaken support for
00:10:32Ukraine.
00:10:37The European Commission is preparing proposals to strengthen visa rules for
00:10:41Russian citizens due to the threat of hybrid attacks. This is reported
00:10:45by Politico with reference to sources. According to the
00:10:47publication, new measures are planned to be presented in January
00:10:51next year. Poland, Sweden and Estonia
00:10:55expect to strengthen control over the entry of Russians, including former
00:10:58military personnel who fought against Ukraine. Estonian
00:11:01Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna
00:11:04stated that it concerns approximately 650 thousand
00:11:08former Russian servicemen who could potentially pose
00:11:11a threat to the security of the European Union. Last year,
00:11:14Russian citizens received about 478 thousand
00:11:18tourist Schengen visas, a significant part of which allows
00:11:21multiple entries.
00:11:26Cars that will help save lives have arrived in
00:11:29Ukraine. Six ambulances and a vehicle for
00:11:33transporting people with disabilities were delivered to Lviv. This is already
00:11:36the 24th humanitarian convoy from Belgium. It was carried out
00:11:40by the charity fund "Mercy and Health" jointly with the Belgian
00:11:43non-governmental organization "Bifo Ukraine". In total,
00:11:47the organizers of the initiative brought to Ukraine over 150
00:11:50vehicles. Ambulances will be transferred to the most loaded
00:11:54front lines, where they will help save
00:11:57lives. And another vehicle, equipped for transporting people
00:12:01with disabilities, will be sent to a hospital in
00:12:04Boryspil.
00:12:06We understand that the total need, that is, we currently
00:12:10have more than 100 needs, which are live needs
00:12:13from our army, from our hospitals, from
00:12:17stabilization points, and we try to cover
00:12:20all these needs. We have a very wide range at this time, this is the Kharkiv
00:12:24direction. Zaporizhzhia direction, Donetsk
00:12:26direction,
00:12:29Dnipro direction. The need is always great, so that people can
00:12:32be delivered donor blood in time,
00:12:36to deliver tests of seriously ill
00:12:39people, this always usually happens even
00:12:43at night, at a very unexpected
00:12:46time. What motivates us to continue
00:12:50is that we believe that we must help
00:12:53Ukrainians defend themselves.
00:12:56All this news for this hour, the next news release in less
00:12:59than an hour, then my colleagues, Kateryna
00:13:03Nekrecha and Serhiy Rudenko, will continue
00:13:35working. We welcome all our viewers, you are watching Ukrainian Focus Morning
00:13:38of Glory. This morning and this week for you
00:13:42begin after Oksana Vysochanska, our colleague from Kateryna
00:13:46Nekrecha, I am Serhiy Rudenko with you today, so we and
00:13:49our colleagues, good morning, we and our colleagues are preparing, we have prepared
00:13:53for you the most important. all events, news, we will
00:13:56analyze, we will discuss this, and you must join the discussion
00:14:00on YouTube, on the Slava channel, subscribe if
00:14:04you haven't already, comment, please, and we will discuss
00:14:08everything that is happening now in Ukraine and
00:14:12the world with you. Over the next three hours, we will
00:14:15talk about the so-called energy truce, which
00:14:18was announced on October 11 by the President
00:14:21of the United States of America Donald Trump. He says that
00:14:25Ukraine and Russia allegedly agreed on this energy
00:14:29truce, there is a reaction from both sides, about which Donald
00:14:32Trump speaks, about what this energy truce means and what
00:14:36the latest reverences of Donald Trump
00:14:40towards Russia are connected with, we will talk about this throughout
00:14:43almost our entire broadcast, because this is the main topic not only of our
00:14:47broadcast, but it is also the main topic in the world and in Ukraine, I don't know
00:14:50about Russia, but the occupiers continue to strike
00:14:54at... the energy infrastructure
00:14:57of Ukraine, yesterday, after Trump announced this
00:15:00energy truce, the Russians
00:15:03struck the TPP in Kharkiv, and
00:15:06at other facilities that are part
00:15:10of the energy system of Ukraine, what will happen
00:15:12next, what will the winter be like, and
00:15:15most importantly, will Russia still adhere to this
00:15:19energy truce, because, judging by the
00:15:22rhetoric coming from the Kremlin, they
00:15:26are talking about an energy truce that concerns exclusively
00:15:29oil refineries, in Ukraine there is only one and it is not
00:15:32working oil refinery in Kremenchuk and it looks
00:15:36like... Trump allegedly says that Ukrainians promised
00:15:40not to hit Russian oil refineries, and the Russians also
00:15:43promised not to hit, allegedly, again, Ukrainian
00:15:47oil refineries, although I repeat once again, this oil refinery
00:15:51in Kremenchuk is not working, and
00:15:54we will also talk about a wave of threats and violence in
00:15:57Poland, where they are threatening
00:16:01the leaders of the Polish state, who is behind
00:16:04these threats, how is it related to the Russian-Ukrainian war,
00:16:08or rather, the war
00:16:10of Russia against Europe, a hybrid war,
00:16:14are there ears of Russian occupiers there, and
00:16:17how the destruction of
00:16:20Yandex data centers in Russia changes
00:16:23the picture of social networks in Poland, in
00:16:27the world, in the United States of America, and in different
00:16:30countries where political struggle
00:16:33is now raging, we will talk about all this throughout
00:16:37the next three hours, and speaking of the United States
00:16:40of America and of the moods and reactions there,
00:16:43seven US senators signed
00:16:47such a joint letter,
00:16:49published it, such a joint statement and said that
00:16:53the US should not give Putin a financial
00:16:56lifeline, they believe that Trump's
00:16:59decision to allow the import of diesel from the Russian
00:17:03Federation to the States contradicts the 2022 law.
00:17:06According to them, the Trump administration did not consult
00:17:09with Congress, did not justify such
00:17:12decisions and called on the White House
00:17:15to immediately change course. And next we have Artem Revchuk,
00:17:19deputy of the Kharkiv City Council, Mr. Andriy,
00:17:22Mr. Artem, forgive me, we welcome you and thank you for being with us today,
00:17:26welcome,
00:17:28вітаємо,
00:17:32do you hear, good morning, do you hear now, Mr. Artem,
00:17:35welcome. Mr. Artem, can you hear us in the
00:17:38studio?
00:17:41Apparently, he can't hear, we will wait for the connection
00:17:44to be restored, we also understand that there are already
00:17:47power outages in Ukraine, and
00:17:50therefore we understand that various technical nuances may arise,
00:17:54we will talk with Mr. Artem about the situation in
00:17:57Kharkiv, from the news we understand that the attacks
00:18:01continue, Russia continues to carry out
00:18:04attacks on Kharkiv directly, including
00:18:08with FABs, there is also a statement about, well, such
00:18:12analytics about the fact that the priority targets for the Russian
00:18:15Federation are actually the destruction
00:18:19of Ukraine's energy sector, this information was published,
00:18:22published by journalists of the "Schemes" project of Radio Svoboda, they
00:18:25refer to an intercepted document of the Russian
00:18:29Federation, so we understand that our various Ukrainian
00:18:33regions today are suffering from
00:18:36Russian... by the way, if you are watching us directly from
00:18:40your relatives are in Ukraine,
00:18:44you can write in the comments what the situation is in your region,
00:18:48for example, are there schedules for power outages and are they
00:18:52really followed, or are there still
00:18:55outages not according to the schedule, yes, that is, we understand
00:18:58that this happens when the situation is more difficult,
00:19:02when it is difficult to control,
00:19:04to make a distribution
00:19:08for all users of power grids, where the
00:19:11situation is more difficult, so you can share the experience of your
00:19:15region in the comments under our video on YouTube. Well, the situation in Kharkiv is not easy,
00:19:18yesterday, after Donald Trump
00:19:21announced an energy truce, the Russians
00:19:24struck TPP-5, which is located in
00:19:28the suburbs of Kharkiv, a series of
00:19:31explosions rang out there, and President
00:19:34Volodymyr Zelenskyy said in his evening address
00:19:38that despite the truce announced
00:19:41by Trump, the occupiers continue to strike
00:19:44Ukraine's energy structure. In general,
00:19:47in just this past week, Russians
00:19:50launched over 200 attacks on our generation and transmission
00:19:54facilities in Ukraine, another 17 attacks in a week
00:19:57were on gas and oil facilities, meaning the occupiers
00:20:01are counting on destroying the energy
00:20:04infrastructure of Ukraine, and in particular
00:20:07of Kharkiv. In addition, Kharkiv was
00:20:11struck by FABs, unfortunately, a
00:20:14woman died, 10 were injured, including a child.
00:20:17Kharkiv was hit not only
00:20:21in the direction of TPP-5, but also
00:20:25in - residential buildings, that is, in residential areas, the Russians
00:20:29continue terror against peaceful
00:20:32people, against those who remain in the city, and
00:20:35try to compensate for
00:20:38their failures on the front
00:20:41with strikes on the rear civilian infrastructure
00:20:44of Kharkiv, and accordingly of Ukraine. Well, in general, if we
00:20:47return to the work of journalists who summed
00:20:51up the number of Russian attacks, there is a reference
00:20:54to the Prosecutor General's Office from Radio Svoboda journalists,
00:20:57which is currently investigating more than 3
00:21:01thousand strikes on Ukrainian energy infrastructure, that
00:21:04is, only during this past summer
00:21:08and September 2026, according to Ukrainian
00:21:11specialized experts, Russia launched about
00:21:15160 strikes per month on critical infrastructure,
00:21:19160 strikes per month, and this refers specifically
00:21:22to strikes outside
00:21:25the frontline territory, that is, this refers
00:21:29to cities that are far from the front, from
00:21:32the front line, yes, so this is how such
00:21:36a number is calculated, and in fact we will continue to talk today
00:21:40in our broadcast about the number of civilian casualties, and it is also said that a larger
00:21:43number of civilian casualties are further from the front line,
00:21:47that is, this is the result and consequence
00:21:50of Russian long-range attacks on
00:21:53Ukrainian cities, and it should also be said that
00:21:56this document, which the journalists of Schemes refer to, was probably prepared by the Russian
00:22:00side, provided by Ukrainian intelligence on September 17 in
00:22:04Paris, demonstrated to partners at the energy Ramstein by
00:22:07Energy Minister Denys Shmyhal, so we understand that these are indeed
00:22:11such targeted Russian plans. And
00:22:14Artem Revchuk, deputy of the Kharkiv City Council,
00:22:18joins us. Mr. Artem, we welcome you again,
00:22:22we hope you can hear us well now and see us, good morning,
00:22:26yes, good morning, although honestly, the night was
00:22:29also with alarms, yesterday was generally a very difficult day for
00:22:33Kharkiv region, for Kharkiv in general and
00:22:35its suburbs. Let's start with the situation that
00:22:39developed on the evening of October 11, because in his evening
00:22:43address, President Zelenskyy said that at the time when Trump
00:22:46announced an energy truce, rockets
00:22:50were flying towards Kharkiv, towards TPP-5, I understand
00:22:53that it is located in the suburbs of Kharkiv, what is the current situation
00:22:57in general with TPP-5, with all
00:23:00the communications that are in the city, well, and there was
00:23:04a FAB strike on civilian infrastructure, on civilian
00:23:07buildings, look, you just said that as
00:23:10soon as Trump's announcement was made, I was also reading
00:23:14the news at that moment, and explosions were also
00:23:17heard, as it later turned out... let's say,
00:23:21I found out in more detail, there were about seven
00:23:23explosions, the first explosions were precisely at
00:23:2635, and then one of the missiles, as far as I know
00:23:30from the package, hit a supermarket in
00:23:33Pisochyn, actually, well, whoever is local knows, it's just
00:23:37that the city turns into Pisochyn, that's what the settlement
00:23:40is called, and the same 35 is there, that is, it's
00:23:44such a, well, in fact, due to
00:23:47the inaccuracy of this weapon, probably.
00:23:51and maybe, I hardly believe that it was still,
00:23:55let's say, an accident, I think that they decided to hit us
00:23:58once again on energy,
00:24:02violating those agreements that Trump
00:24:05proposed, and once again
00:24:07to terrorize our population, unfortunately,
00:24:11three people died, two
00:24:14children, a 19-year-old girl,
00:24:17a 16-year-old boy, I even saw a video of him on a scooter,
00:24:21it's, well, let's say, it generally
00:24:24shocked me, although it seems, how can
00:24:27you be shocked by what you've seen over these years, both at the front and in
00:24:31civilian life, but since I also have,
00:24:34let's say, a son, well, a little younger, and when you see
00:24:38these frames, and well, it's hard to describe
00:24:41in words, and a 53-year-old woman also died, before
00:24:45that day there was a strike on
00:24:48Kharkiv.
00:24:51Well, as for the degree of damage to TPP-5, I
00:24:54will not comment right away, because
00:24:58I have no right to disclose any
00:25:02details regarding our energy
00:25:04stability, I am
00:25:07the deputy head of the housing and communal services commission, in
00:25:11principle, more or less I understand what should have happened
00:25:14there, but I will not comment on anything regarding
00:25:18the degree of damage, what an enemy. It was not easier to continue
00:25:22their terrorist acts, but in general, this is a very big tragedy and
00:25:26a very cynical strike, yes, after two leaders, well, one leader
00:25:29cannot be called, and the other too, given
00:25:33how he trades, let's say for
00:25:35some fuel he sells, he trades
00:25:39Ukrainian lives, I wouldn't call him a leader either, unfortunately, this is such
00:25:43a problem we have now, a global problem,
00:25:47a problem of populism, and we have...
00:25:50such leaders in quotation marks,
00:25:53peaceful populations suffer all over the world. Mr. Artem, please
00:25:57tell me, what is the current situation with
00:25:59energy, with heat in the city? Are there
00:26:03blackouts, are there areas where there might
00:26:06be a more problematic situation and there is no
00:26:09electricity?
00:26:11Well, look, as for electricity, well,
00:26:15there were, well, outages, there are certain
00:26:18outage schedules, both in the city and in the
00:26:22region as well, actually, this strike, well,
00:26:25right now on heating, on what is it, it's very
00:26:28strong, not very strong. will affect, as such...
00:26:32They will definitely not achieve an "out", because, well, over these
00:26:36years of full-scale invasion, Kharkiv, in
00:26:39principle, well, I compare it, let's say, with Kyiv, because
00:26:43it so happened that half of my life I live in Kyiv now,
00:26:47half in Kharkiv, that was the moment in Kharkiv,
00:26:50it is, so I will say that Kharkiv is one of the cities that I have seen
00:26:54most prepared, I know just, well, what exactly we were deploying,
00:26:57cogeneration stations, gas turbine
00:27:00stations, I know... the profession
00:27:03of, well, directly those deputies, deputy mayors
00:27:07and heads of departments and, well, in
00:27:10principle, specialists from
00:27:13housing and communal services, who deal with these issues, and I will say that
00:27:17these are highly professional people, and what they
00:27:20report to us at commissions, it corresponds to
00:27:24reality, still Kharkiv is more or less already
00:27:27prepared over these years for such situations, as they say, unfortunately, very... I wish this
00:27:31preparation would happen at all,
00:27:35as they say, if there was peacetime, but, unfortunately, Kharkiv, at the beginning
00:27:38of the full-scale war, became
00:27:42the first, let's say, experiment of Russian
00:27:45terror, and we ourselves,
00:27:49let's say, felt the fraternal
00:27:53love and had to
00:27:56somehow survive, and as for, I say, resilience, I think that
00:27:59Kharkiv is more prepared than other cities. Thank you, Mr.
00:28:03Artem, for the conversation, that was Artem Revchuk, a deputy of
00:28:07the Kharkiv City Council, we talked about the situation in the
00:28:11city after the attacks by KABs and
00:28:14missiles on TEC-5, yesterday, I remind you,
00:28:17these attacks took place,
00:28:21and this happened against the backdrop of Trump's public
00:28:24statements about an energy truce,
00:28:27there is information that the mayor of Kharkiv, Terekhov, has already
00:28:30asked the EU for money for
00:28:34energy, housing and metro, there is
00:28:37information that Igor Terekhov
00:28:40met with the representative
00:28:43of the European Commission, Peter Wagner, and handed him projects prepared for
00:28:47financing the needs of frontline
00:28:50communities, and it is interesting that
00:28:53obviously during some nearest period,
00:28:57the European Commission should make a decision on these
00:29:00projects, especially since, judging by the reaction
00:29:04of Europeans, for Europeans, all
00:29:07of Trump's current flirtations with the Russians
00:29:10are also incomprehensible and unacceptable, and therefore we will
00:29:14hope for the help of Europeans in this difficult
00:29:17time. Next, we will talk about the situation at the front,
00:29:20specifically in the Lyman direction, during the previous
00:29:24day, 10 attempts were repelled by the Russians to wedge into
00:29:28the Ukrainian defense in the areas of the settlements of Nadiia,
00:29:31Novoyehorivka. Vesele, Lyman and Dibrova, this
00:29:35is a report from the General Staff, then to the broadcast we invite our guest, this is
00:29:38Olena Rozvadovska, chief of staff of the Mara Unmanned Systems Battalion
00:29:42of the 66th Separate Mechanized Brigade named after Prince Mstyslav
00:29:45the Brave. Mrs. Olena, we welcome you, thank you for
00:29:48joining us. Glory to Ukraine. Glory to the Heroes.
00:29:51Glory to the Heroes. Mrs. Olena, please tell us, how is the situation now
00:29:55in the Lyman direction, the third
00:29:59stage of the operation, the offensive operation.
00:30:02Vivaldi has ended,
00:30:04what is happening now, that is, are we in
00:30:08the process of the fourth season of Vivaldi or
00:30:12the fourth part of the operation,
00:30:15the offensive operation of Vivaldi, or are there other tasks
00:30:19facing our defense forces that
00:30:22are working in the Lyman direction, and in particular
00:30:26regarding your unmanned systems battalion
00:30:29Mara, I hope. that our
00:30:33seasons will continue even more successfully, and
00:30:37quite soon we will see Ukraine with
00:30:40all its territory that
00:30:43belongs to us by right. As for the enemy,
00:30:47after the enemy was forced
00:30:51to report the real state of affairs to his command, they
00:30:54became more actively trying to infiltrate in small groups
00:30:57to sneak through all of us.
