Roads in #Ukraine - Porubne to Kyiv - June 2024 - 🇺🇦 🇬🇧
This is a trip back into Ukraine to deliver aid to the East and the South near the front lines. I have entered through the Siret-Porubne border crossing point about 7 hours drive due North of Bucharest. There is a patch of road for about 80kms on the way which we call 'washing machine' road, as you feel you are in a spin cycle being tossed around. To call this section a road is to be very kind. Years of neglect have left parts of it in a shocking state, so enjoy the tips on getting through this section of road if you go that way.
Can I please encourage people globally to support Ukraine if you haven't already and continue if you have. They need our support more than ever given Ukraine is acting as a shield for the rest of us and thousands of Ukrainians have already given their lives to win back their freedom, democracy and territorial independence and protect ours. So please donate to us to help Ukraine or our partners we work with.
A special mention of thanks for the ongoing support to Ukraine needs to go to:
- Helping Our Ukrainian Friends HelpingUkrainesSurgeons/
- Stamford Supports Ukraine Group and all its volunteers
- H.U.G.S. hugsukraine.org/ for tireless work across a range of ongoing programs to help Ukraine and for painting and giving a mechanical bill of health to the ambulances.
I am proud to be an official volunteer in Ukraine and continue to support Ukraine with my mates Max, Neil and special groups of likeminded souls all doing their part. All are legends, a collective of big hearted souls from around the world, with one common aim, support Ukraine until victory.
Anybody who wishes to help by donating can use the existing links below. I make regular trips into Ukraine to deliver aid and people are welcome to accompany me. You can use the channel email dylan@sustaineukraine.org to get in touch. Genuine people only thanks. I can also organise for aid to get into the country via #Romania and provide logistical support in Ukraine via our interconnected volunteer network.

do you still get the error codes and milages ?
☢️in 1986 reactor 4 explosion☢️
This isn't the reactor 4. The whole project is banned to visitors forever
No its Reactor 3 as it says, not 4!
Imagine the blocks moving...
Oh hell no, I'd never go anywhere near a nuclear reactor, not even a functioning one
how about now in 2024 is it safe? ive heard people say mines are a problem
It's safe on the known roads and tracks. Chernobyl town and Pripyat are ok. Some of the areas where the Russians dug in I would still not trust, but those areas are not the best to visit anyway given the elevated radiation rates after the Russians dug in there and disturbed a lot of the radiation in the red forest soil.
@@BitsofEurope awesome i really appreciate the feedback! do you know by any chance if stalkers are still active within the zone still?
Great video, bro!!
Thanks

Hi, I am having trouble purchasing tickets from Bucharest to Ruse, could you please tell me which website did you get them from? 😀
You can use CFR official website bileteinternationale.cfrcalatori.ro/ro/booking/select/outward
Everyone gangsta till they realise they are rising up in air while walking 💀
👏😊☝️
Everybody gangsta till the fuel rods start dancing
Where is all the buried stuff like helicopters etc?
There are a couple of sites near Chernobyl town where stuff was buried, the largest was at Buryakivka village, but its all buried now. Only a few things remain, in Pripyat itself is the old garage and machine working sheds and they still have few vehicles there including the claw from a crane used to remove rubble and its still a little radioactive. The Russians in 2022 during the brief occupation of Chernobyl actually stripped parts off these old vehicles including tyres over 30 years old! So most buried in Buryakivka and the rest cut up and melted.
for ukraine roads are pretty good. I am German Man, drived by myself much more bad roads in Ukraine. Till 2013 I was in Ukraine drived more than 10000km, one eye always to the road, other eye to the landsscape
I think you needed glasses even back then :) ....just joking....I agree some roads in general are very good, especially the highways running East to West and North to South, but some of the secondary roads once you get of those are not even roads, just connected potholes. But that's what years of corruption and neglect provide and one of the only good sides of the war, is that all Ukrainians have banded together for their country and they will demand better after the war. Look out anybody in government or council who trys to benefit from corruption after the war, the won't last long. I hope reconstruction money including the frozen billions from Russia will help provide new roads for Ukraine.
loved the video..amazing how they have kept the trial room almost exactly as it was with the tables, curtains, etc. wow! Surreal to match the actual video of the trial with what is there today. That's a bucket list destination for sure for anyone interested in that part of the world and that part of history.
Hi, this video is good material for ! I wanted to mention that in the TV Mini Series called "Comrade: The Making, Glory and Unmaking of a Dictator (2023)" they said the bullet holes in the wall where they executed Ceausescu are fake. They said they were made on purpose for an artistic film. What do you think?
Good question. First thing is speaking to the lady who runs the museum, she has been there since 1989 and her husband was also in the Army at the time, a tank commander and he was ordered to secure Targoviste in case loyalists tried to rescue the Ceausescu's. She said the holes are real and she has no reason to lie, she is full of information and to her its a piece of history. Also the place is very well preserved, so you look at old photos and video from the trial and compare to my video and others, or what you see in person, its almost identical. As for outside, I am ex Army and would say those are real bullet holes, sometimes brick crumbles so a smaller bullet can make a larger hole. Some said the holes were too low to be aimed around the chest, well they were both pretty short people and for me the holes are chest height for them. Also if you compare the place where Nicolae's body ended up and during his examination on the ground you can see the stones and their lines clearly and those stones behind him line up with the stones in my video, also same windows, same colour etc. So no doubt about the spot. The only thing not quite correct is the outline of Nicolae's body, he did not fall lying on his side, he fell backward with his knees bent under him and head up against the wall, but I think easier to draw the outline the way it is now. There was a lot more damage to the stone lower down in 89, but I think later all the stone area had some paint or plaster washed over it. So do I think site is authentic and bullet holes real, yes I think so as the rest is 100% accurately preserved and there is no doubt from existing video that the outside location is where the firing squad shot from and at.
Thank you for the comprehensive reply. I am glad you are creating content relevant for Romanians, which are my people. I hope your interaction with Romania is and will continue to be enriching both for you and for the Romanians as well. I have to say I currently live in the US and the more I stay here the more I realise that Eastern Europeans have a lot to learn from the Westerners and vice versa, of course. All the best to you!
Multumesc mult! Its my home now and not going anywhere. Love it here.

Jump around jump around jump up jump up and get down.
The fuel is still there?
No....been removed
this is cause surge energy or rods pumping

All fun and games till they start doing jumping jacks
everyone gangsta until the rods start bouncing and alarms go off
Very rediculous & irresponsible!

If the rods are hoppin,' don't come a knockin.'
Very cool upload ! Damn, compared to the roads in Romania, the ones I see in Ukraine are a disaster.
Did I hear correctly about the bio robots on the roof being allowed 4 minutes to clear as much graphite and other debris from the roof as they possibly could during the clean up, fyi it wasn't 4 minutes the bio robots got on the roof it was approximately 90 seconds
Yeh could have been 90 seconds, 4 minutes stuck in my head for some reason.
Everybody gangsta until control rods starts jumping
they didnt do that
دست درد نکنه . خیلی ممنون. ❤
Everyone gangster until Akimov presses AZ-5
The business around Radauti are probably owned by Pentecostals. They have a huge presence there in Suceava county and they have dogmatic capitalist work ethic imposed by their cult on top of american capital coming in.
Okay thanks for the explanation. Something is behind it because it's so specific to Rădăuți like it's a model. Mulțumesc.
Fascinating
This Is fake
How is this fake? That's my voice and me walking lol. Private tour of the reactor hall. Very real I can assure you.
14:39 why no pictures?!?!😮
What do you mean 'no pictures'? There is a whole video of my visit to the reactor hall.
I get that ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ feeling if i see this❤
7:30
Made that way
این گرافیت هست💀🤦🏾♂️
No idea what the comment is, please explain.
Someone told me that even after disaster and building of the sarcophagus over 4th reactor, station continued to work and 3 reactors active even now
The other 3 did continue for a period until 2000 when unit 3 shut down. Units 1 and 2 were shut down in 1991 and 1996. There is nothing operating now and all spent fuel has been removed. The control room of reactor 1 is still live and used to shift electricity around the Ukrainian grid.
I rate this video 3.6 roentgen
😅😅 nice.
Not bad not terrible
😮
What is the biological shield made of, stainless steel?, lead?, cadmium?, boron?
Steel and concrete in different thicknesses.
Реактор 4 не может быть восстановлен, а если только если восстановлен то только с наружной стороны. Т.К внутреная часть реактора полностью разрушена, внутри есть ещё продукт ядерной лавы, которая засохла и превратился в слоновью ногу. Так что ребят не верьте всякой ерунде в интернете. А звуки которые издаются в внутри здания это рабочий реактор в другом месте, НО ТОЧНО НЕ В ЧАЭС!!! Надеюсь все поняля это.
Yes there are no reactors working in the CNPP. Last one decommissioned in 2000. Reactor 4 will never work again or any of them, they are all in the process of being dismantled with radioactive waste being stored onsite in a new containment area. This work will take another 20 years.
ты хочешь стать другом и взорвать Северную Америку
Orbanits are keeping the money for them
I would say so.
Severe intrusive thoughts, A. I want to stand on it while its bouncing from the pressure unless that was made up in the film then I am 💔 and B. I want to literally bathe in ionising radiation to see how quickly I would melt 🎉
😂😂
Well I have some sad news for you. The channel caps could never bounce. But I guess the entire lid and UBS raised up a bit before the steam burst out
To jak to jest ? Ukraina jest w stanie wojny z Rosją i organizuje wycieczki ??? Hmmmm 😮
What tours are you referring to? This was filmed before the war started.
Страшно
Yeah no…….
😅
All those gray collumns would be fuel rods and pressure chambers, red ones are automatic control rods, green ones are manual control rods, blue ones are neutron(radiation) detectors, and yellow ones are also control rods but Short ones from below reactor the more you know
You made a mistake comrade, it's Soviet Union not Ukraine
Mistake is all yours😁
