There are 52 Snakes among these 52, as well as the National Guard, who was captured in the defense of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, and the SBU pensioner, whom the invaders were captured in Bucha. We remember everyone who is held captive in Russia and in the occupied territory, and we will do everything to return everyone and everyone. Our exchanging team works constantly. These are Budanov, Yermak, Usov, Lubin and others who help.
In total, 1031 people have already been released from the Russian captivity from the Russian captivity. Thank you all the team for this result! I would like to point out again the work of our energy, repairers, regional administrations. Anyone who works daily to return the normal technical possibility of electricity supply after Russian terrorist strikes. Today, there are significantly fewer stabilization and emergency shutdowns - an order of magnitude less.
But there is still such a need, and in some cities and areas restrictions are still possible. In particular, it is the Kirovohrad region, some other regions. We do our best to make electricity shutdowns as predictable as possible and that people can plan their day. Thank you separately to those who worked, who works to return the energy supply to the city of Uman and the Uman district of Cherkasy region. There was really a difficult situation after one of the Russian blows.
As of now, it is possible to return the technical ability to supply. Also in the Kyiv region: the situation was critical, but now we are correcting. I would like to emphasize that returning the technical ability to supply does not mean that the energy deficit in the system has been overcome. Russian terror continues. It is very cynical. Sometimes repeated blows are deliberately caught when the repair has begun when recovery continues. Unfortunately, we have killed in repair crews, in power companies.
My condolences to my family. Therefore, please - this applies to all Ukrainians - it is very important to consciously consume electricity. This need is stored. Now we all need to contribute to maintaining the stability of the entire power system. During the week - from Saturday to Saturday - more than 40 Iranian shock drones, a significant number of Russian missiles, six shock helicopters of the occupiers, several of their planes . . .
This result is hundreds of saved lives of Ukrainians, dozens of preserved objects of critical infrastructure. And on the submission of the military command, I would like to celebrate the Odessa and Kherson anti -aircraft missile brigades of the Air Force today. Well done guys! I thank all our defenders of the sky, absolutely all - all anti -aircraft, pilots, mobile fire groups, which now perform one of the most important strategic tasks - save the country from the air strikes of terrorists.
Today, a rather predictable statement was made from Russia - a statement that they finally disrupt the export grain initiative. But in reality, this is not their decision. Russia began to consciously exacerbate the food crisis in September - when it blocked the movement of ships with our food. From September to this day, 176 vessels have accumulated in the grain corridor that cannot pass on their route. Some grain trucks have been waiting for more than three weeks.
This is a completely conscious blockade of Russia. It is a completely transparent intention to regain the threat of large -scale famine to Africa, for Asia. Literally, more than 2 million tons of food are in the sea. This means that for more than 7 million consumers has actually deteriorated food access. Algeria, Egypt, Yemen, Bangladesh, Vietnam, others - very different countries, from different parts of the world . . . But they can all be destabilized because of this Russian decision to block exports.
I emphasize that this decision was obviously made by Russia in September. Only this can be evidenced by this turn from ships with food in the sea. It is also important that at least twice during the grain initiative, Russia has struck our Navy. Just by the forces that guarantee the safety of the grain corridor. A rigid international reaction is now needed. Both at the UN level and at other levels. In particular, at the level of the Great Twenty.
How can Russia be among others in G20 if it consciously works on a few continents? This is nonsense. Russia is not a place in the twenty. All partners see this artificial queue. They see what Russia was doing to break the grain initiative. They see that even grain vessels that are regulated within the UN Food Program for the poorest countries do not receive a guaranteed possibility of passing the maritime route.
Russia does everything to Millions of Africans, millions of inhabitants of the Middle East and South Asia are in the face of artificial famine or at least a rigid price crisis. But why is this a bunch of people somewhere in the Kremlin whether food on tables in people in Egypt or Bangladesh? What it is? The world has power to protect people from it. Ukraine was and may continue to be one of the guarantors of global food security. Russian terror and blackmail have to lose. Humanity must win.
