Android build apk

Expo Development Tools
1

Hello.
After eject expo project to bare workflow (SDK 37) and run expo publish
I try to build apk but get this error all the time.
Use this command gradlew bundleRelease in folder /android
But wat such a command works correctly gradlew bundleDebug
What am I doing wrong ?
build.gradle

buildTypes {

        debug {

            signingConfig signingConfigs.debug

        }

        release {

            // Caution! In production, you need to generate your own keystore file.

            // see https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/signed-apk-android.

            signingConfig signingConfigs.release

            minifyEnabled enableProguardInReleaseBuilds

            proguardFiles getDefaultProguardFile("proguard-android.txt"), "proguard-rules.pro"

        }

    }

Error

If I create a file app.manifest manually, the assembly happens but the assembled APK immediately crashes. (debug APK work perfect)

After execute command expo publish i see url to app.manifest in cmd log

After eject, why do we have to run expo publish can’t we user react-native bundle command to generate bundle command.
Please help me understand expo eject true meaning expo team.
If i try to build without app.bundle & app.manifest Task :app:bundleReleaseExpoUpdatesAssets fails, why is this task required?
