The Russian military has become active again on the Prydniprovsky direction in Kherson region and is trying to advance.

However, along the Dnipro River, the 40th Separate Coast Guard Brigade is holding its own section of the front. The military controls the coastline and the islands, constantly repelling Russian attempts to land on the Ukrainian shore. Despite the daily shelling and fighting, the brigade is holding the line, preventing the enemy from advancing. That is why we decided to dedicate the live broadcast of Intent.Insight to this very topic.

Oleh Zakharkiv, one of the brigade's combat officers, headed the recruiting department after being wounded and rehabilitated. He will tell us about his service in the south, combat everyday life, and how to join the 40th Brigade.

Every week, Intent.Insight looks at one issue that worries Ukrainians and raises topical questions and tries to solve specific problems.

On May 13, Intent. Insight discussed how old Odesa really is. Victoria Kravchenko, curator of the Odesa 610 festival, and one of the lecturers, People's Artist of Ukraine Anatoliy Kravchenko , spoke about the importance of education, the true history of the city, and the integration of art, history, and culture into a single program.

And on May 6, the program discussed the inevitability of water price increases in Odesa with Serhiy Chaban, head of the InfoXvodokanal information center. Odesa residents were told what the water tariff consists of, who pays it, about debts and the quality of water in the taps.

On April 29, the company decided to dedicate the live broadcast of Intent.Insight to the real estate market in Odesa and Ukraine and the impact of the war on it.

On April 15, the live airing of Intent.Insight was dedicated to the problems of bicycle infrastructure development both in Odesa and Ukraine.
