They could buy, someone else sold it, you try to buy it, even if you have money, because the market is built like this, no one wanted and still does not want to sell directly, now if you have money , yes, try to buy f16 in the market, yes, or patriot, if the country had money, lets say a billion dollars, they would simply not sell to you, because the market will be completely different. But if it is possible to prove that someone pocketed this money, the intermediary put it in, of course, because he takes risks, thats how it is, thats how this market is built, and thats why when smart people come out, lets give something there someone messed up, no, i dont rule out that they messed up, im not talking here, im talking so that we understand the context and understand how does the arms market really work, everyone has already made sure that this is not a potato that can be bought from. On the market, and therefore, most likely, this case will end in nothing, well, nothing, because when they start talking, what what did you do there in the first three months of the war, and what did naboo do in the first three months of the war, did you give me a clue, again, i am not a lawyer here, i just understand the context, yes, when the Law Enforcement agencies come to him, there , i remember, for example, a criminal case was initiated against the network. Tomira for causing environmental damage because he was asked by the military to blow up the dam, right . Well, from the point of view of now, when all these rascals have returned, please excuse me, to the places where ukrainians were driven out of kyiv, including resistance, of course this is a crime, well, from their point of view, and thats why i, we must understand that its all business, all these business, yes, all these business. They dont have a big perspective, because here the question is 57 , and you try to buy it for e at the price that was on the market, were there any in reality here, thats why it should be unconditional investigation, if there really were no options, these weapons and these shells really went to the front, i, well, look, well, look at the mediator, lets say the mediator is in the same poland, yes, he knows that there is a need, there is a need for ukrainians. To sell for what is needed, that there is nothing at the front, and he says, and i put such a price that they took such and such , because the issue was the protection of the state in reality and the protection of the fact that people were dying and so on, could they in this case, some intermediaries could and did brew here, because once again demand creates supply, and you ask how many Different Countries sell arms to ukraine at what markup and. 200 under 300 , because demand creates supply, as karl marx wrote in capital, that when it comes to the profit is 300 , then the seller can go even to even murder, and therefore it is for any, for any crime he has so much i have good news, literally a minute, but i want, you just reacted, wrote Andriy Tsaplienko about this, well, i personally trust him, about the fact that this weapon which was once intercepted by the americans, they were transporting it there with the iranian houthis, 500 ak assault rifles. 47 machine guns rpg sniper rifles, well , these are handheld antitank grenade launchers 7 and more than 500,000 rounds of caliber 7. 62, well, actually for ak, they were transferred to ukraine, well, a positive story, i understand that these are not tanks and not airplanes, well, but still anyway, look at what 500,000 cartridges are, yes, i think that for the ukrainian front its about two days, well, plus or minus, well, well, but at least 500 automatic weapons, we can see in what condition they are, in any, well and this is a long story, it took place about a year ago, well, well, yes, its like that, its nice, but such, you know, not even a drop, not a drop, you know, i think, ballistic missiles. Intercepted and handed over to ukraine such that even with launchers, they could intercept, but it does not mean that they were handed over. Thank you very much for participating, thank you for the most important professional and honest answers to a difficult question. Taras zagorodny, political technologist, managing partner of the national anticrisis group, was in touch with us. I certainly dont know if it will help much, this very weapon, which we are talking about now, will help, but there are great needs and certain questions at the front, i will not say there about. But a person who knows about it, serhiy zgurets, director of the defense express agency and leading column military summaries of the day. Serhii, please give me the floor. I congratulate you, vasyl, i congratulate our viewers, indeed, any weapon is now needed on our front. We will talk today, first of all, about the fighting near krasnohorivka and near chasivyar, what are the dynamics there, because there are things that are changing, and about the use of new technologies on the battlefield, how our. Robotic platforms fight under the same ivanovsky, about it in a conversation with the developer of this platform, about it in a moment. So, the two directions of this day were the hottest, if we look at the map and the general headquarters there, it is exactly novopavlivskyi and bakhmutivskyi, although it is more likely the fighting around the time of the yaru, because this direction is now. Centering all our attention, first after all, about the novopavlovsk direction, in fact half of the combat clashes and the left part of the attention is focused precisely on krasnohorivka, because we talked about the fact that the enemy captured maryanka, then tried to move there to novumykhaivka, not everything is so simple there, but for the last few days , attacks have been carried out in the direction of krasnohorivka, the target. Actually it is to protect oneself in the future from such flanking attacks from krasnohorivka, because without this it is impossible to advance to kurakhovo, 12 km there, the enemy has set himself a goal, but all these advances are extremely difficult for the enemy. Yesterday and today there were such powerful attacks of the enemy and not less powerful countermeasures from our side, yesterday there were attacks by Armored Vehicles there on the position of the 80th. Of the Airborne Assault brigade , the enemys equipment was moving, then came under artillery fire, turned around, and there six of the nine vehicles turned around, the rest were destroyed, today the officers of the 58th motorized Infantry Brigade also spoke about the fact that the enemy attacked krasnohorivka yesterday and today , at the expense of the artillery at the expense of the counterattacks of the enemy there, it was suspended, and regarding. By the way, we see a video of this tank barn, i wont name his barn, but i will use it anyway the russian word for barn, it was just this t72 tank, yesterday the attack on krasnogorivka, it is such a tank packed with special protective structures that resemble a barn, with a trawl about made its way to krasnogorivka, it was followed by a whole column of equipment, in principle, they came under fire in the same way under fire, ill turn it around. This tank was not destroyed, but today we can see how our cluster munitions work, some of the equipment was also lost, this tank turned around, but today we already received information that this barn husynytsia did get our means, it just happened the parking lot, this and that building, which has now actually turned into a coffin, was destroyed in the city. On the tracks, but still the situation near krasnohorivka is now extremely tense, the extreme information that is being discussed there by various experts, with reference to various photographs, is that the enemy did manage to advance to the northern parts of krasnohorivka there , to certain first houses and to sort of gain a foothold there , but this information still needs to be verified, we understand that this area is extremely important for the enemy and it is no less important that we have all the means and forces. Knock out the enemy from krasnohorivka, as the third assault brigade once did, which about a month ago knocked out the enemy from krasnohorivka. And the second no less difficult section is actually the time of the yar, because in fact from the fourth there the enemy carried out various types of offensive actions, now it is trying to move from several directions and frontally through khromov until the time of the yar, there was the wellknown attack of the fourth. Numbers, when the enemys eight vehicles were moving right to chasivyar, they reached the quarter called the canal, this is exactly the. Tal, which before the Siverskyi Donets donbas channel, now we can see, by the way, a map of the yar times, and here exactly from north to south passes the Siverskyi Donets channel, donbass, this channel is actually the main such a complicated geographical line for the enemy to cross and one of the main lines of our defense, this channel is 89 m wide in certain areas, in some areas we have it. And in fact, now the enemy is trying precisely from bohdanivka to kalynyvka, this is the first such, well, northern tick, attempts to break through this channel to kalynyvka, to create a northern threat to the yar river, russian Airborne Assault units are really operating there, and another similar story is unfolding from ivanovsky, where the enemy from the south also wants to push right to this channel, cross the channel and create these. The forests that cover chasivyar, this story is theoretical, it is understood, because it is approaches to flank coverage of the enemy implemented before, but now it largely depends on, on the one hand, on the very features of this area, if we now , by the way, if we see a map, a geographical map of the heights of the time, we understand that we see that the time of the yaru is a height. The enemy is trying to move from bohdanivka, he climbed to the first heights there, he wants to get there from the north, and chesivyard is theoretically well defended at the height, but under the condition that all fortifications are in place, when our artillery is working and when there is, first of all, something to fight against the Russian Aviation and with cabs, because now the enemy has been using this tactic for a long time, when the entire line of fortification simply collapses at the expense of cabs, and then already there with such the enemy is trying to advance with quick eh. Tank breakthroughs with a significant amount of technical manpower on the armor, so now the situation is actually like a clockwork, on the one hand, it will be an attempt for the enemy to once again check their methods of waging war, which were carried out during the capture the people of avdiiv, and from our side, it will depend on how much we took into account previous mistakes, found opportunities to fight first of all, well, in particular, with aviation, the enemy is the most difficult. The call was provided by our units in sufficient quantity artillery, drones and provided with reserves, because in fact, holding during the time of the yaru will be of strategic importance, our command fully understands this, just the dynamics of the battle around the time of the yaru will then, in principle, determine how the situation will develop in other areas of the front, we we remember that the enemy aims to expand there in the direction of the donetsk luhansk region, and the capture of the yar is important for him, just as it is important for us to defend this line of defense, and by the way, during the yar, near ivanivsk, under under ivanivskyi, we have already seen examples of the use of robotic platforms of ukrainian development, and now we are joined by a guest with whom we will talk about this work, this is taras ostapchuk, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine, an ideologue. The mastermind and actually the head of the team, and now the company for the production of robotic platforms ratel. Mr. Taras, i congratulate you, i am glad to see and hear you. Congratulations. Now we will show a video where your platform destroyed one of the bridges, which was used, was used, just under ivanivskyi the enemy i think that was one of the combat uses of your platform, because i do nt think its the only example. But while the audience is watching, please tell us what your platform can do, what are its main technical characteristics, how is it treated by the military, who already cooperate with it on the battlefield in principle . Well, in fact, it is a twoinone platform, it is a platform that can be used as a komikaze, as well as a remote changer, it can travel up to 6 km as a komikaze. At a speed of 22 km h, carry weight up to 35 kg, functions of remote mining 6 km, two antitank mines, produced in series, delivered systematically to the contact line, it seems that you had a plan about six months ago to raise funds for 50 such platforms, which, as i understand, are complex, maybe there is a control point platform there. And put them on the equipment of 50 relevant companies, was it possible to do it, if not, then where to raise money, tell our viewers, maybe it will be for. A boost, well, for additional Financial Support for your project, in fact, we wanted to raise money for 10 complexes, which are made up, each complex consists of five machines, a repeater of the ground station, it turned out to collect only two complexes, that is, 10 machines, of which one complex was fully paid by the company on time, this is an electronic document turnover, the collection was carried out by the Charitable Organization dignitas. The collection is still ongoing, well, in fact, we only collected for two complexes, two were transferred, but we had the opportunity to transfer eight more complexes on our own, that is, we transferred 40 machines with personal funds, well, this means that in fact, that there is a demand for these products, the money is a little less than we would like, but this system, they helped with money, is it possible that the ministry of technology is there, because minister fedora. By the way, advertised your, your platform, i hope that there are Funds Exchange figures for the purchase of drones, there may be funds for the purchase of ground drones, breivan, their task is not to collect funds, but to receive a Technical Task from the military and find manufacturers who can perform this task, they cope with it completely, according to breivan, no questions, mindigit will try to contract now that is, in fact, we already have. State contracts, we fulfill them, and some of them have already been fulfilled. Well, taras, every robotic platform is a thing where you need to know the details. When it is given to the military team, the military does not always understand what we have given them. Does this mean that it is necessary to create appropriate units that are familiar with the technological product, and to the question, as of now, who exactly in the military units uses the samples that have already been transferred. In part, in fact, we hand over our products only after training, which we conduct, the training takes 23 days, and the people who have passed the training, the operators, only after that they receive our complex for use in full, you see now the logistics complex of us, ah, now companies of ground robotic complexes are being created in the army , this time process. Started, this is a new story and we are teaching people now personally, i was on various trials of robotic platforms before the war there in the early years, the control range of the platform there 1. 5 km was considered top, you state that we can do as much as 6 km, is this true , how this is being achieved, are you willing to share these developments with other developers . Fortunately, we already have a lot of robotic platforms in ukraine. Well, look, ratels is our smallest platform comikat for a remote changer was blown up at a distance of 4 km in mezidvanivsk, a record, i wont say in which direction 6. 3. I personally stopped at konstantinovci for 3. 5 km, and i still had a reserve for communication, accordingly, 4 km is a direct working distance, absolutely calm, it can be achieved in small ones. Of the complex with the help of a repeater that rises to drones, it comes in the delivery kit, that is , in fact, the military does not need to think, he needs to have a favorite drone, in our kit it is provided for the third mavic, it is for small platforms, for evacuation platforms, it is ratel m and ratel h, they are already admitted to operation, there is a calm distance of 10 km from the operator, it is completely calm, and these risks with the use of a repeater in the conditions of conversations about the enemy. Banter, etc. , interfere, do not interfere, how to avoid these threats . And does not interfere, in fact , there the method of application is as follows, that is, in you drone to drone with a repeater attached, the drone rises as close as possible to the operator, the distance is 300 meters somewhere, and well, the danger is minimal for the drone, taras, the possibility of using the platform at night, is there a need for this, or for this movement. Or practice does it indicate that there are enough daytime conditions . Kamikat for a remote changer can be used with the help of drones with a repeater, evacuation platforms have night cameras and can work under infrared lights at 100 , that is, in fact , the enemy does not see, it is a complete night for the enemy and to the eye, the operator sees the ideal distance. The capacity of the enterprise for the production of such platforms, as far as they are currently satisfied. With the request from the Law Enforcement agencies, well, we are not able to cope, we now have a turn, in fact, until the end of july, it is already signed, this is without state contracts, without taking into account state contracts with. Contracts, which are now in the final stages, we will be swamped with work until the end of the year, are you going to expand the enterprise at the expense of recruiting employees, yes, we do it systematically, we recruit people, scale systematically according to requests, i. E. Now, in fact, we have the opportunity to ship 4050 small platforms and two evacuation platforms, i think in a month or a half we will reach 100 platforms. And 56 evacuation ones, this is solely due to funding from the state, are there any priorities in the supply of these or other brigades, we had a video now, we will show again where the fifth separate assault brigade uses your platform, i know this team well enough there, well, in detail, they use not only your platform, by the way, but also test other samples there, to other brigades, without even mentioning the names themselves, just whether there is. Demand from the infantry there or from the paratroopers there or from the Ground Defense and there are some priorities there, who wants to have more specifically technological things . Well, now actually the paratroopers are the most asked to take them and the most capable operators among the paratroopers, and if we talk about the missions, the left part of the mission is exactly remote mining, detonations, and about a third or less is evacuation, right. What a ratio platform downloads . Loading the platform is now remote demining 100 , further komikaze, the evacuation of the bc suspension is just starting, we have just shipped several platforms, we are waiting for the results, well, the evacuation of the bc suspension is a complex platform, a complex operation, because a much larger drone, when assembling for the production of these samples of yours, we rely on chinese or are we trying to expand, well, to. The National Range of components for manufacturing robotic platforms . Well, now in small platforms, villages 40 ukraine 60 china, we are moving towards 70 ukraine 30 china, that is, there are movements, but now there are no good ones products on the market of ukraine. According to the evacuation platforms, there are actually 70 ukraine and 30 china in total. We can see the use of robotic platforms on the battlefield. Different video, when enemy drones try to attack our ground platforms, our fpv Drones Attack russian robotic platforms, how common is this already, and if it has not yet become, then what, how actively the enemy is trying to destroy such robotic platforms of ours, if he sees them on the battlefield, tries 100 to destroy them fivishkoy, our rateles, it is not protected in any way under fp. Our evacuation platforms can operate under basic control with a reb installed on the platform, that is, in fact, the above platform can be a dome from enemy fpvs while maintaining control. Are you considering any or sharing experiences on the optimal tactics of using these platforms, improving your platforms with the military and is there a horizontal level of interaction with our developers of other robotic platforms, because. Often you have to listen to hear that there is no solution related to the control of such a platform, we cannot make eyes there and hands for such a platform of ours drives, but is not controlled, well, in fact, according to manufacturers, we help everyone who applies, now we even do Metal Cutting for some manufacturers , we help others with setting up drivers and with control, i. E. There is no competition, there is actual cooperation between all robot manufacturers, everyone helps each other according to. Military remarks, i. E. In fact it works as follows shipment, a Technical Task is underway, work on the job is being carried out, shipment is underway, running in combat, then returns with combat comments and then final work and already on the front without comments, is there a need to create some kind of universal control module for the robotic platform so that it is there is a powerful, highquality one that can be scaled and avoided, relatively speaking. Or the characteristics of each team, which sometimes brings its own, well, nuances to this or that project . Well, unfortunately, the platform is universal it will not be possible to do universal control, because then the russians will pull up the reb and crush all platforms, i. E. All platforms, radio, communication for all platforms, it is adjusted to a specific brigade, i. E. The brigade gives a Technical Task that in our country it is possible to work on such purity with this type of management. We set the appropriate control type or program the appropriate purity. Mr. Taras, thank you very much for taking the time, what for what your team, you personally do to strengthen. Of our defense capability, let me remind you, that it was taras ostapchuk, a serviceman in the armed forces of ukraine and head of the team that manufactures the ratel robotic platforms used by our troops on the battlefield against the enemy. These were the main military results of this day, and more international and Economic News later on vasyl zamas big broadcast, so stay tuned to the espresso channel. Thanks to serhii zgurets, thanks to his guest, these were the military results of the day, then the second hour of the great ether, we have prepared a lot of interesting and Important Information for you, well, now we will talk about what happened is brief, but about the important thing, at least one person died, three more were injured due to enemy shelling in donetsk region. The head of the region Vadym Filashkin informed about this. The occupiers struck kostyantynivka from aircraft, killing one civilian and injuring two others. At the same time , a search operation is underway there. Already under the rubble of one of the houses there may be two more residents. In total, almost three dozen private houses, three highrise buildings, two infrastructure facilities and an administrative building were damaged in the city. Another civilian russian invaders wounded in the village of sokil in the cheretyn community, the victim was taken to the hospital. And the russians attacked kharkiv again , according to preliminary data, three employees of a civilian enterprise were injured, a man and a woman were hospitalized. But one more person was given help in the city announced the head of the region oleg synigubov. The occupiers hit the central part of kharkiv an hour ago with preguided aerial bombs , destroying and setting buildings on fire. There may be people under the rubble, the official added. Support from their own, kherson region sends more than one and a half hundred generators of various capacities to the Kharkiv Region, said oleksandr prokudin, head of the kherson Regional Military administration. He noted that his regional pike knows what it means to be left without electricity as a result of the aggressors actions. Kharkiv oblast was the first to support the residents of its region in the first days of liberation and after the terrorist attack on the kakhovskaya hydroelectric power plant. Now aid is going from kherson region to Kharkiv Region. The war taught us not to stand apart from each other, it taught us unity like never before. Now its our turn help. We are together, and therefore will not win. People of kharkiv, hold on, kherson region is with you. Today, the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi, is on an official visit to Kharkiv Region, where the head of our state visited the site of the construction of defensive lines, the fortification consists of an extensive system of trenches, dugouts and other types of shelters near the border with the aggressor country , the russian federation, barrier lines, concrete pyramids are being erected, the so called dragons teeth and. Antitank ditches, i am grateful to each and every one who these weeks worked to give Kharkiv Region more electricity, to give more protection from russian strikes, reported on physical protection of energy facilities, restoration of networks, now all necessary conditions are being created to reduce electricity deficit. Kharkiv should get easier schedules. After mounted enemy attacks on critical infrastructure. Ukrainians across ukraine need new Solutions Regarding energy security. This was emphasized by Prime Minister of ukraine Denys Shmyhal during the meeting of the cabinet of ministers. According to him , the government has identified three vectors of activity in this direction. The first is repairs and attracting help from partners. Kyiv relies on the Energy Support fund of ukraine. Where are our partners . More than 405 million euros, the second direction is the decentralization of generation, instead of large power plants vulnerable to attacks, dozens of small scattered facilities need to be installed, and the third direction is the strengthening of our air defense. Here we also ask for help from partners, now this is a priority for our entire team. Our task until next winter is to minimize risks for the energy sector, to make sure that ukrainians have light and heat in their homes, businesses work smoothly. Late in the evening, on april 8 , residents of poltava heard the sounds of explosions. The russians attacked a residential building with a rocket, a familytype dormitory in which 30 people lived was destroyed. A few more neighboring houses were damaged, and children were killed among the victims. Our correspondent Anna Morozova will tell you more. The night from april 8 to 9 for residents of the poltava territorial community. Was restless, after the announcement of
