the attack and irresponsibility regarding nuclear safety. i would like to remind you that on april 7, magate observers reported the explosion of a drone on the territory of the armed forces. before that, the propaganda media wrote that the armed forces allegedly attacked a ukrainian drone. 180,000 shells, the czech republic concluded a contract for the purchase of ammunition for ukraine. they will be transferred to the front in the coming months. this was announced by prime minister peter fiala. according to him, the czech republic understands how critical the situation with shells in ukraine is, so the partners plan to contract another 300,000 ammunition in the near future. separate bills, speaker of the us house of representatives, mike johnson, presented four separate plans to help ukraine, israel, taiwan and the national.

security of the united states. johnson expressed his position during a closed conference of the house of representatives of the republican party, reuters news agency reports. the peculiarity of this plan is to move four draft laws under one procedural norm. this would allow the input amendments and the united states will not help ukraine shoot down russian drones or missiles, as it happened. during iran's attack on israel, national security council strategic communications coordinator john kirby said. according to him, the war in the middle east and the war in ukraine carry different threats. in ukraine and israel, there are different conflicts, different air spaces, a different picture of the threat, and president joe biden has already said: the us will not participate in the conflict in ukraine, precisely in a combat role. mine ukraine

all the necessary tools to protect their airspace. in the usa, a fire broke out at a factory for the production of buoys. supplies, the local publication atlant news reports. the flames have now been extinguished, fortunately no one from the staff was injured. police officers are assessing the damage and finding out the cause of the fire. it is also known that in the state of pennsylvania , last year, the american media spread information that it is at this factory that shells for the armed forces of ukraine are manufactured. new sanctions against belarus, the usa and canada have introduced restrictions against persons who support the regime of dictator oleksandr lukashenka. this was reported by the us treasury department. we are talking about 12 legal entities and 10 individuals, among them belarusian state enterprises, as well as a chinese company that

helps the lukashenka regime purchase equipment from the usa. in addition, the sanctions apply to companies involved in the global arms trade. in buchi, volunteers independently designed and manufacture ground drones for the evacuation of wounded soldiers. the drone accelerates to 20 km/h and can transport a military u full of ammunition. the product has already saved more than one life and proved itself on the front line. our correspondent anna morozova met the developers. a rack with radio control and video cameras is installed, the control boards are turned on, and then one repeater, the second

repeater are turned on one by one, the picture appeared. ruslan zatorskyi has been operating a ground evacuation drone since november 2023. the engineer was asked by his military friends to invent a technology that would help evacuate the wounded and dead from shelling. this the cart takes away guys on the shield, these guys take away guys from scratch and wounded, he also delivers bc, he delivers provisions, in broad daylight. the engineer monitored the market, was surprised by the prices and long production times, and set out on his own. make drawings of the future evacuation truck, it works according to the principle of any drone, using signal repeaters and a control panel. if to the left, it turns to the left accordingly, if to the right, then it turns to the right accordingly, there is a cruise control function, you

you turn it on, it constantly moves in a certain direction, and you already control this stick where, where it should move. the ground drone can carry up to 150 kg. at a distance of one to 3.5 km, depending on its configuration. he does not like bricks, stones and so on there, which is in front, he does not like asphalt, but earth, soil, swamp, well, at the moment there is a meter-long ditch, he calmly moves with his load, he has passed the narrows and tests at the front, snow, mud , rips and piles of earth, each drone is tested as a product before use. so are the military, the latter add and recommendations for improving the drone. serhii makovetsky begins to assemble another cart from scratch, checks the drawings on the wall and cuts pieces of metal, which will soon turn into the body of the drone.

cutting, welding, assembly, the engines arrive, so to speak, in the condition of... theirs, i am already processing them, disassembling them and making them into two-wheelers that suit us, after assembly , paint was collected, painted, we put the wheels, after the wheels they are already coming guys who are starting to do electronics, there are four people in the volunteer team, they managed to do it in 5 months of work to produce 12 evacuation drones, which saved more than one life. anna morozova bohdan proskorov from bucha for espresso tv channel. and again, you have to understand what i am reminding. about our collection, the intelligence unit of the third regiment of special operations forces needs communication and security equipment, they fight for the independence of our country in difficult battles on the eastern front and give us the opportunity to live, work and study. in general, our goal is uah 720,000.

also go to our website espresso.tv, find the espresso volunteers section there, and in this section find all the information about this collection or any other that the espresso tv channel is conducting in parallel, in any case it will be for our army that defends us from the enemies. natalia gubenyuk, head of the joint coordination press center of the defense forces of southern ukraine, a colonel appears to us. mrs. natalya, good morning, glory to ukraine, i greet you, what news from the south? i can't say that this is something new, but still combat news is such that the enemy continues to attack, continues to pressurize the land with assaults, testing the strength of our defense in various directions, and the orichov direction is muddling him, and kherson, there is a gap. we are holding our positions and working on the expansion of the quartet, in fact the same

efforts are being made, in the orihiv direction there are seven assaults, but most of them are still concentrated in the direction of staromajorskyi, i.e. closer to the east, there are more active actions there now, in the kherson direction there are five assaults spent the past day in borog, had no success, did not use armored vehicles, they are limited to use. light motor vehicles, these are motorcycles, buggies, golf carts, on which they get closer to the position, then in a larger way they try to conduct shooting battles, also in the intervals between this combat work related to direct skirmishes, the enemy tries to press with the use of drones, the use of artillery , but still they are afraid to bring the artillery closer to, for example on... in the kherson direction, closer to the water cut, because there it falls into the zone

the active defeat of our counter-battery fight, and these figures, which we show in the daily summaries, where the enemy loses more than 50 units of combat equipment, well, they significantly affect the number of the general military group on the left bank of the temporarily occupied territory of ukraine, although we understand that they are accumulated there a lot tens of thousands of personnel, hundreds of weapons and equipment, all this indicates that we still have a lot of work to do, all of them are being asked one way or another. i wonder if there will be any an attempt at a major russian offensive this summer, and could the south of ukraine, for example, the orihiv direction, become this, with this attempt at a major breakthrough by the russians at the front, we should not rule out such possibilities, because we understand that we are dealing with an enemy that can be both carefully

prepared and driven to a certain, certain degree of such desperation. military and political, that their conduct, for example, of powerful local assaults is already a proven practice, and the possibility that even without having prospects, they can resort to a powerful offensive in order to win some victories, we remember, they have a tendency to win, and may 9 is again a sacred date for them and quite likely activation. during this period, what is happening in the occupied crimea, and there was a missile attack there yesterday, and it seems that we hit the command post, which, in which high-ranking russian officers were located, how many of them changed there, mrs. natalya, do you know the details

of this? that only in that crimea is not happening, a lot of things, and it was in of course, and... these are taking place, and the transfer of personnel and equipment, and the search for new locations of deployment, and while they are all not dull, very busy, we are conducting our combat work, but it is quite difficult to find out the results of this combat work, because they are scared, they are really trying to hide them as much as possible, so i hope we will have the patience to wait for the verification of the results of the work, and then we can speak objectively, because now... despite the fact that some manifestations were very obvious and filmed, we still need to understand that we have to exclude those provocations that the enemy has prepared on a large scale, and we know that they do not disdain provocations and the civilian population of temporarily occupied territories with important strategic

objects, so there must be very careful when submitting this information, we are waiting for a power of attorney from the general. ok, we are waiting, i also wanted to ask you about these 100 km of new fortifications on the coast of crimea, which the russians built, are they preparing for something and what kind of fortifications are they and what is their quality? well in principle, if you track the entire period of a full-scale invasion, they played sand fairly regularly, it is normal for them during this period, it is rummaging, somewhere to dig up budget funds. funds, somewhere to launder them for themselves personally, and to winterize the great struggle and work to provide for the population, that is why we are now studying this situation, we see that they have dug so blatantly, and will it help, as in the old odessa joke, it will not help them, but until let the earth be shaken, ugh, i

also wanted to ask you about the russian ship, which by... that is a ban on itself calmly made a voyage to crimea and brought there 200 tons of turkish salt, is there a salt crisis in crimea, and how did this ship manage to make this voyage? unfortunately, the issues have not yet been fully resolved, even on a global scale, there are such cases of piracy, in fact, violations of international maritime norms. the right that ships cannot enter the closed ports, and such facts continue throughout the entire period of the annexation of crimea, in particular, when the official closure of those ports was announced, which belong to ukraine legally, but are de facto occupied and used by russia, all these

facts are carefully documented, but there will still be a reaction on a global scale. to wait, to prove, to go through a very wide range of legal procedures in order to be able to collect appropriate punishments from those who violate international rights. well, panelists, thank you very much for this conversation, natalia gommanyuk, head of the joint coordination press center of the defense forces of southern ukraine, the colonel was in touch with us, and to know more interesting and relevant information, please visit the spread website. tv and our social networks, and also look for espresso where on youtube, search, be sure to subscribe to youtube, because that's where the live broadcasts take place, that's where you can see all of you'. releases of our programs, special projects, which you can also see there on our youtube channel, the more subscribers there are, the more often it will appear in your

us, support us with your like, well , you liked us, you saw the qr code in our corner, it's over there it appears in the corner of the screen from time to time, and in this way they also supported our army, they threw a few hryvnias there, no matter how much it is, for some it is not a pity 50 hryvnias, for... someone thousands, and for some, for some may any larger amount, we will be grateful in any case, but show the qr code, i promise people, but it is still not there, show it there, it should appear, oh, the qr code appeared, you see , from there you have to send your hryvnias, in fact you send these hryvnias, not even to our military, these hryvnias are for your safety, for your peace of mind, because the more fpv drones there are, the fewer muscovites there will be, the fewer chances they will have to be on ... our land and advance further, as they try to do, try to bite off ukrainian territories and are taking away our people's lives, we already have uah 868,317 and 54 kopecks in our account,

i've seen those 54 kopecks for the second day, it's hanging around and hanging around, listen, someone round it up, make sure they don't exist, it's 868,317 uah 54 kopecks out of 2 million , which we need, well , in order to... we had 1 million, we already need some 130 thousand or something, only 130 thousand, we collected 73 00 yesterday, it's a trifle, i think that you and i will do it today, we would like to finish today at the 1 million mark, well , we'll see how it turns out, and of course you let us know, in the meantime, whether the united states will finally allocate funds, global funds to the global level, we will find out soon. meanwhile, yesterday speaker johnson, well actually today and in our time, said that the aid document will be voted on in four

packages, in fact separately, the aid will be distributed to israel, separately to taiwan, separately to ukraine and separately to someone else, forget who, in a word, or this is good news, it's hard to say, i'm a little stressed, you know, that now everyone is a law. the project can be failed separately, in particular the draft law on ukraine, well, but promises, as you saw johnson, that they support ukraine, and what's more, there seems to be some good things laid out there, like that in addition to using, this leniency treaty and using russian frozen assets to help ukraine, it will mean that it can still have a more radical help, or on the contrary he will be cut off now and instead. they will give us 2-3 billion, which will not solve anything, well , we will soon, we will soon understand, i understand that it was also tied to the ban on tiktok, ugh, in the united states,

why ukraine somehow goes along with this, i don't understand, well, but this is the logic of the united states congressmen, the good news for us is that maybe in the near future this military aid will finally be unblocked, it is very important, as well as for air defense, and for... in general, weapons, in front of us, weapons. tetyana voroshko, a voice of america correspondent, wrote the following post yesterday about the fact that her husband often communicates with americans for work in the united states, and notes that recently they literally they pour in such pearls from russian disinformation, for example, and it's not, it's not, it's not some people there who... receive, i don't know, a salary, they're just real americans who sit somewhere on some, i don't know, garbage sites or what, how does this information reach them, but we understand that the russians are just pouring out a huge pile of money in order to

blow it up. trust in ukraine, and actually she says that very often it is these people who say such crazy things to her husband, for example, they spread memes with fake information about zelenskyi, that he seems to be a cia agent, bought yachts with american money, and that american aid goes into his pocket, well, there is a lot of such nonsense that doesn't hold up, listen, but it would be good if zelenskyi was an agent it. ruu would be nice, it's a shame it's not like that, i'm even upset, but you see how it is, people can't, even if you're an american, it doesn't mean you're immune to disinformation, that you know how to understand , which information is true, you still know how to check it, ot they literally threw some nonsense at them, they took it on faith and continue to live with it and spread it. all these russian

narratives, this is how russia works, spreads its lies, taking advantage of the fact that people do not monitor their media literacy, do not monitor their media field. dear friends, we are now going on a short break, we will return and continue, we will have ruslan muzachuk, spokesman of the national guard of ukraine. thank you for the meantime and for the likes that appeared, i just realized that i started the broadcast, you know, from the very morning when our air began, i didn’t update it, we had 89 at the beginning . we already have it, we already have it, i’ll say it now, i’ll update it so as not to fool people again, we already have 679 likes, that’s it, and already on our account we also are getting close, we need less than uah 30,000 so that we have uah 900, uah 871,982 for this morning, you and i, dear friends, have already collected uah 20,000, we are going to take
