Represents the National Team, united by football , stronger together, my god, dear, disaster struck again, it was so nice, it was quiet, we began to untie the shackles of our slaves, until the water started flowing again. Male blood. Cats are married, like dogs hungry for butter, they gnaw again. Shevchenko, prophet. You watch a marathon on espresso, we continue it. Nataliya gumenyuk, head of the joint Coordination Press Center of the forces defense of southern ukraine. The colonel is in touch with us. Mrs. Natalya, we congratulate you. Glory to ukraine, i congratulate you. Glory to heroes. Russians again. Fired at odeschyna, a rocket flew in, landed somewhere in the field, in your opinion , what is the connection with this constant, constant shelling of odeschyna, is our permanent representative at the un, mr. Kyslytsia, really right that these are attempts russia to disrupt the sea corridor . Obviously, he is focused on the analytics of the Defense Forces, because we. Predicted unequivocally, after ukraine dared to independently secure the navigation corridor without the support of foreign representative offices of foreign guarantors, these threats appeared and actually increased, were interpreted in different ways, our enemies were trying to figure out how to apply pressure in order to stop this navigation, navigation. Of civilian vessels, which is no longer strictly related to the grain initiative, reached a new level transshipment of cargo under martial law. Ukraine is a maritime country, it has access to the sea, and transshipment of goods by sea is the most effective and powerful the direction of the economy, which is able to support ukraine in such conditions. And the fact that we work, that the ports provide work, that the Defense Forces ensure the passage of ships, annoys the neighbor who tried to dominate the black sea waters, and today there is actually no naval resource that could maintain this dominance, and tries to put pressure on port infrastructure. Is it possible to somehow protect odeschyna, so that after the russian shelling, such terrible news about what is happening there does not appear in our news feeds people die, especially children . Well , it has already been proven that it is impossible to install an absolute dome, but we are trying and trying to spread the system to the maximum extent possible with the resources we have. A network of mobile fire groups, we also activate Electronic Warfare as much as possible, all means that we can counter are used, and the activity of our air Defense Forces is 24 7, without breaks and weekends, noting that intensive combat work occurs precisely when enemy attacks occur, but also are active from tactical aviation, for example, in the waters of the black sea or the sea of azov, all this is also a signal for heightened alertness, which is why, in principle,. And such a missile attack took place, pinpoint, as we warned, this is a tactic of the enemy, but not less inconclusive, the enemy tried to measure air defense systems, the x31 missile is an antiradar missile, and it was directed from the sea at the coast, that is, a check of the readiness and response of air defense systems. Finally , i will ask you what is happening in the kherson region, there the enemy continues to press with artillery shelling, for the first time in 10 days he dared to use a guided aerial bomb , directing it again to a residential quarter, a house was destroyed, a fivestory residential building, where a sevenyearold child was injured, all this absolutely fits into the narratives that they promote under their quasielections, that they are trying to return to the right bank, that they are liberating the deoccupied. Kherson oblast, but no one believes them anymore. But is it the fact that they scare, that they will attack kherson, they scare, yes, but we have reliable fortification barriers, we have antimine defense and mineexplosive fortification, we have the advantage of the right bank over the left in terms of geography. Features, we clearly maintain fire control over the dnipro river itself, and the crossing of the enemy, even in the form of small sabotage and reconnaissance groups, to the right bank is practically impossible, the defense and protection of our borders is absolutely ensured, and the fact that the enemy is trying to continue assaults on the left shore, says that on the left bank our bridgehead continues its own functioning and. All measures taken by the enemy did not yield results. Ms. Natalia, thank you for the information.

The premium sponsor of the National Team represents. United by football, stronger together. Dear friends, we are back on the air, continuing. Victoria oliynyk, a parliamentary analyst of the movement, is honestly in touch with us. Mrs. Victoria, we congratulate you. Good day. I know that the parliamentary, that the movement honestly investigated the openness of local councils, i even a little i looked at which Regional Councils and City Councils are still open, which ones are still closed, something is very closed, chernivtsi yes. I understand correctly that the chernivtsi regional council, yes, well, we know why, because there, if anything, immediately people with hatchets fly by on horses, and thats it, and the end, in chernivtsi region, chernivtsi region, yes, everyone saw that the video with the people who attacked and the funniest thing about this video is, if i understand correctly, or the saddest thing is that it turns out that those men, they already have a bunch of people in that, in that war, and that one participant already that war with the russians, the second one on a horse, those. That already mobilized with injuries came to mobilize them, and it is not clear who is mobilizing whom, maybe too many in chernivtsi region were not mobilized in that village, maybe that is the problem . Well, but its probably more visible to someone on the mountain , well , well talk less about those who are on the mountain too, probably, but lets first talk about the results of your openness rating, what it actually showed, and this is the third wave of our monitoring, the first two took place in in 2022, that is, even at the beginning of the fullscale invasion, then we understood that due to martial law, due to restrictions, there could be certain closures of information, but in 2023 , such and such. Excuses are no longer quite appropriate, so we nevertheless promoted this openness again, and on the positive side, a significant number of councils have significantly increased their openness, if we are talking about the City Councils of Regional Centers, then almost all councils here received a high score for the level of openness, the only exceptions are the zaporizhia and kharkiv councils, and the Kherson Council is currently not functioning fully, because a military administration was formed there, and therefore we could not assess the openness of the kherson city council. But it is justified because the situation in kherson was really special and they need more time to stabilize their work. Kharkiv and zaporizhzhia still remain closed to citizens in a certain way. Okay, its about this information, according to which criteria it is actually evaluated, whether it is possible, whether they can somehow affect these results on this board. We want to say that the results have already had a very Significant Impact on councils because. That this is the third wave, and when in the first or second wave we were not answered, ignored, there was not a large number of published documents, then in 23 they called us , asked if they had received everything, asked to clarify what was wrong, they would finalize everything, that is, the public coverage of their previous closedness led to the fact that now the councils have become much more open. Well, with the exception of zaporizhzhia, which did not improve at all kharkiv slightly improved its performance over the entire two years, but still remains closed. The criteria there are simple, it is the announcement of the meetings, it is the possibility of physical access of citizens to these meetings, as well as the publication of video recordings of the meetings, and documents, the same as draft decisions, decisions, minutes of meetings, and we are also talking about the documents of the work of permanent commissions, if these all documents are available in a timely manner, it would be very. Easily allows citizens to follow how the Council Works and to what extent, what decisions it makes, and of course, to be able to influence them. Mrs. Victoria, you know, you are talking now about Regional Centers, yes, Regional Centers are large cities where there is a Critical Mass of activists, despite the fact that a large number of these activists are now defending the country with weapons, they are still indifferent. People, if you go to a lower level, to smaller cities , where there are activists, but in small towns everyone knows each other, and your activism can slip by your side, because if you become active a lot, the city authorities can indicate, i dont know, in it happens to us that sometimes by summons close up so to speak, the mouths of people who do not care where the funds go, what they are used for, where it is possible that some funds are stolen, and why they are stolen, but what about the transparency of small local councils . I myself am from a small town in the rivne region with a population of 4,000, i really understand what you are talking about, because if Regional Centers very often fall into the field of view of Large National organizations, then. Smaller councils, of course, feel freer in this matter , because there are very few physical opportunities to monitor all these councils, but in in turn, the movement honestly now works in Regional Centers, that is, we do not currently have regional analysts who will help us cover activities not only at the allukrainian, National Level, but also at the regional level, so we are starting work in this direction, because if such main points we have already practiced a little and openness has increased, then we understand that really. On the ground, it is necessary for there to be activists, and it is necessary for these activists to have reliable support in the form of some kind of protection from national organizations, because we all understand that its one thing when youre in your small place and you dont have any opportunity to go all out on a National Level, and its another thing when there are some organizations that support your activities, for example, like our movement honestly, and we think that this will help to develop this story with openness and with the fight against corruption very much. On a smaller and more detailed level of local councils, when will the results of this analysis of small local councils be known . We are currently working to highlight the most critical issues, that is, show them clearly somehow, and people from the regions tell us what to write about first of all, because we most likely will not be able to conduct all such general monitoring, because there are thousands of letters, thousands of sites that need to be monitored, and we have a very limited resource, unfortunately, but regional analysts who live right there will help us tell about such supercritical stories and most likely help to solve them, it has already started, there are already several publications. We will continue in this direction, but how are these can people find you, me or you find them . We have vacancies in various regions on our website, so thank you very much for asking about it, it is very difficult for us to really find people who are really passionate about their work, so we invite and will be very grateful if through this broadcast about our more people will learn about vacancies and regional opportunities, all this is on the rukhuchesno website in a separate section of vacancies, we sincerely invite you. And we will be grateful for your active work, because even after the publication of this material to we received comments from a large number of people from regions such as zaporizhzhia, dnipro, kharkiv, who said that although the assessment is high, well, in their opinion, too high, there are such and such problems, and we are currently working with them to understand what how it can affect either our rating, or how we can influe
