00:00Another rather sleepless night here in the capital with the air defense working non-stop.
00:07Kyiv residents woke up by around 3 a.m. local time with at least 10 explosions
00:11as Ukrainian air defense were intercepting the incoming ballistic missiles
00:16on top of the endless drone attacks.
00:18Now, Ukraine is currently working on the technology to intercept Russia's new jet-powered drones.
00:25And I spoke exclusively to Kirill Budanov, the head of the office of the president of Ukraine,
00:30who told me the technology is already being implemented.
00:32Moreover, it is being tested at the battlefield.
00:34And he said that the challenge now is to be able to scale up the production of these interceptors.
00:40But he is confident that it will be possible to do before the cold comes here,
00:46before the winter in Ukraine.
00:48And he also told, Uranus confirmed, that the countries who have already signed the drone deals with Ukraine
00:53will have access to these new interceptors, capable of stopping Russia's jet-powered drones.
01:03It doesn't mean that it's not about any specific method.
01:07It's about the cooperation between countries and other countries, let's say.
01:12So, the Ukrainian new technologies, which are now масштабing,
01:15that are related to capture reactive drones, can also be involved in the drone deal with European countries?
01:20The one who signed these agreements with us, has the right to have the right to have the right to
01:26have the right to deal with specific products.
01:28Euronews was also given exclusive access to some of the air defense troops working in the Kyiv region
01:35to see what the changing threat means for them, for those people who are indeed in charge of protecting the
01:41skies.
01:41Now, they told us that when a jet-powered drone is incoming, there are about 10 seconds before it can
01:46reach Kyiv.
01:47And this is more or less the time that they also have to be able and to prepare to shoot
01:51it down,
01:52between 10 to 15 seconds.
01:54And, of course, this intensity is taking its toll on the cruise as well.
01:58Some of these troops I talked to in Kyiv and in the region of the capital told me that over
02:05the past couple of days
02:06or even weeks, they could only do about an hour and an hour and a half of sleep.
02:11We also talked to Pavlo Tsugunov, who is aircraft battery commander,
02:15and he described the pressure on his cruise under why these new jet-powered drones are so difficult
02:22for some of the existing systems to intercept and what exactly the troops are doing to do that nevertheless.
02:28First of all, this is constant pressure.
02:32The enemy is constantly holding on the pressure as the守護士 of the sea,
02:38as the守護士 of the sea, as the citizens of the sea, as the people of the sea,
02:42and the people of the sea, as the people of the sea,
02:43this is a tactic of the war, as the people of the sea,
02:49as the front, in direct combat, they have no success.
02:56They try to help the population, so that the population will stop supporting the army, and so on, so that
03:04the army will take the capitalization.
