espresso. information day of the tv channel in rozpala, well, we work both live and with phones. there is quite a lot of information, i will now add to our marathon serhiy tsehotskyi, an officer of the 59th separate motorized infantry brigade named after yakov handyuk. glory to ukraine, mr. serhiy, i congratulate you, glory, avdiivka, everything possible. we understand how difficult the situation is, but maybe now you can share additional operational details, so there are no particular details, so everything is still at the same level, somewhere they are storming a little more, but in our direction today, for example, there were no storms at all, only shelling, all positions are held, you hear me, right? yes, mr. serhiy, i hear you, yes, everyone

, all positions are held, so there is no movement, but no one left, it is not planned, and there is no such thing in the intentions, look, all the panic, where, something, yes, we see, there, there are some stories coming out that they broke through something there, captured somewhere, and so on, i cannot confirm any of this, in any case, mr. sergey, we see the activation of the enemy, in the last day or so , they... attacked the avdiyivka direction approximately 12 times, as far as i understand, the attacks are quite powerful, probably more, yes, everything is like that, everything is traditional, avdiyivka itself suffers airstrikes constantly, on all flanks, they shoot, fly, whatever they can, wherever they can , well, we also do not sit still and do everything, too, to catch them somewhere and send them to where they deserve to be.

yes, mr. sergey, if we talk about the specifics of the attacks over the next couple of days, how the enemy is trying to attack, well, in addition to shelling, in addition to the use of aircraft with guided aerial bombs, there may be some other specifics from what is called infantry fighting with armored reinforcements or without armored vehicles, share, in the last there, well, let’s say, in the last few days , we observed, there were cases of launching... kamikaze is equipment, that is, they are with they filled it with a large amount of explosives, and there it was, it was also automotive equipment, it was also an mtlb in one case, and then at full speed they jumped out there , the driver jumped out of the car, the mechanic jumped out of the car and the car was going in the direction of our positions there, so

there was, but, i want to repeat, yes, well, something like that, yes, oh, well, technology is technology, we, this is the first goal for everyone, absolutely, and anti-tank gunners, gunners, and for our pilots, so immediately , what we see, we destroy it, mr. serhiy, if we talk about koksokhim and promzona, what is there, i can say only what i know from my brothers, it means that they are holding on, they are holding up normally, the enemy wants very much, they throw their stormtroopers there, but, i already said before that koksukhim itself is a fortress within a fortress, and there are a lot of secrets, surprises for the enemy, so the situation is under control, mr. serhiu, what is the situation in the south of the avdiiv agglomeration, in particular in the district, i don't know there, in the direction.

of the north, what is the enemy now, how activated is it? there is activity, but i will say that it is a little easier in the south than in the north, that's why what probably, well, maybe they know something a little more, or there are some other circumstances, but i will say that today , for example, there were no assaults on our positions at all, today , exactly, yesterday there were, the day before yesterday there were, today there were none, today only there are only shellings, according to the shellings that the enemy is most actively using now, everything is the same , artillery, drones, there, well, in general, everything that can reach us somewhere, besides, i know that they they are still shelling, it was yesterday, yes, yesterday we were shelled, one populated place, with s300 rockets, that is, the populated area

the point where civilians live, that is, well, well, the terrorists continue their tactics, burning, killing peaceful civilians who pose absolutely no... no threat even to them, as to these military men, let's say, mr. serhiy, look, the situation is in the sky, we constantly hear about the need on the part of our fighters to strengthen this or that drone need, yes, that is, the multi-faceted bpp, but now the espresso tv channel together with the vesna charity fund is collecting for drones for our scouts, those who are currently fighting on daughters, but in general. what is in heaven now if to talk about parity, the forces possessed by the enemy, drone, rep, and the situation from our side, i will say that i will not reveal, perhaps, the big secret, i will say purely my subjective opinion, today there is

a certain parity there, 50 on 50 , there is an enemy and we, why? at the expense of which we will say, at the expense of ingenuity, at the expense of the fact that our... all the time they come up with some certain mood devices there, adapt to any situation, to make of any device something that can add, and importance, importance of this technique today very, very much very strong, why, because it allows for non-contact combat, you know, when you load it there, the pilots load it with explosives and it flies, the second operator tracks the target and it all causes damage, so our ingenuity is more we win than, but they there are a large number, including rap tools

, which are necessary today too, so if there is someone to help, there is definitely such an opportunity, it is necessary that all, all... our citizens understand, there will be more such equipment in all , i'm not just talking about our brigade, i'm saying in general, at the front, the sooner we will defeat them, thank you, mr. serhiy, we were contacted by serhiy tsekhotskyi, an officer of the 59th separate motorized infantry brigade named after yakov handyuk, mr. serhiy is currently in the avdiiv direction, well, you heard everything yourself , dear viewers, you see a qr code on our screen. if you can help our fighters, they are collecting for drones right now, yes, our scouts need drones, well, donate what you can donate, and i would like you to join me now, of course we watched the story about the results

of the spring-summer campaign, we are entering winter, but it is still worth refreshing certain extremely important moments of the battles of the last six months, let's watch together and after that, we continue to analyze all the most important things. the american edition of the new york times published this map at the end of september. it shows how the front line has changed since the beginning of the year. territories captured by the aggressor are marked in red, territories liberated by the armed forces of ukraine are marked in blue. despite 9 months of heavy fighting, control changed over less than 800 square meters, with an active front line of more than 1,500 km. and already on november 1 , the british magazine economist published an article and an interview with the head of the armed forces of ukraine valery zaluzhny. in them, the general stated: the war has become positional and reached a dead end. just as in world war i, we have reached a level of technology that puts us at a standstill.

there will most likely not be a deep and beautiful breakthrough. in fact, it was the first public recognition that he was ukrainian. the counteroffensive did not achieve its goal: to cut off, or at least endanger land corridor to crimea, the ukrainian army and western allies began to prepare for a breakthrough in the south from the end of 2022, after a lightning advance in the kharkiv region and the successful expulsion of the enemy from kherson. the usa and europe decided to supply kyiv with modern armored vehicles. ukraine was actively preparing new brigades. expectations were high, maybe even overstated. all this happened against the background of heavy fighting for bahmud. many western military experts are still convinced. at that time, it was better for the armed forces of ukraine to withdraw from the city to more advantageous positions. they said that it was the battle for bahmud that at least exhausted the artillery reserves of the ukrainian

army, and this ultimately affected the future counteroffensive, but in the spring of 2023, the ukrainian leadership had its own arguments. if bahmud ends up under the control of russian forces, putin will sell this victory to the west, his own society, china and iran. if he senses blood, senses that we are weak, he will push, push, push. thanks to the battle for bahmud, the enemy, despite the huge losses, got time to seriously establish a foothold in the south. the armed forces felt it early on in june, when they launched a counteroffensive in several directions. from the very beginning, the ukrainian army failed to suppress the resistance of enemy artillery, as was the case during the kharkiv operation. russian troops had complete superiority in the air, because the west did not dare to provide ukraine with modern fighter jets. and on the way, western armored vehicles became huge. minefields that neither the armed forces nor their nato

instructors were ready to overcome. here is an excerpt from a german television report in which a ukrainian tanker talks about his training in germany. we ask them how you pass minifields, they explain to us that you just need to go around them, their maps show minefields measuring 100 by 200 m. but here we are. no, we have hectares of these minefields, you know? after an unsuccessful attempt to break through , the so-called war of attrition began. the sides tried to inflict as many losses as possible on each other, primarily in artillery and armored vehicles, but no one managed to gain an obvious advantage in this battle. on the berdyansk direction the ukrainian army managed to cut off the so-called vremiya ledge and liberate the staromarsky one. in tokmacki, as a result , it is difficult.

during the fighting, the armed forces liberated the village of robotyne, but it was not possible to reach the tokmak itself, from where it would be possible to control the main routes to the crimea, but in october the enemy intensified and went on the attack in several directions at once, this was particularly facilitated by putin's agreement with the north korean dictator kimchenin on supplies artillery ammunition. according to media, south korean intelligence is evaluating them the number is more than a million, the hottest spot today is avdiivka. despite high losses, the enemy did not abandon the intention of encircling and capturing it and has partial success. near bakhmut, where the ukrainian army had the undisputed initiative all summer and at the beginning of autumn, the russians are also attacking. attacks do not stop in kupyansk district as well. the enemy does not stop trying to recapture the city, which is an important railway junction. in many areas of the front, it has a significant advantage in reconnaissance and attack drones. it is known that the invaders are again are preparing massive attacks on the ukrainian energy system. all this means that the winter

campaign will be difficult, possibly with painful territorial losses. what's next , in the spring and summer of the 24th, commander-in-chief valery zaluzhnyi talks about the risks of a positional war in conditions where human resources in russia significantly exceed ukraine's, and the life of a russian soldier is worth nothing. the greatest risk of a trench war is that it can drag on for years and exhaust the ukrainian state, we must find a solution to this, how to make the war maneuverable, we must find that gunpowder, master it quickly, and use it to win quickly, because sooner or later we'll find that we simply don't have enough men to fight. in order to break through the front, the head asks the west for more drones, electronic and counter-battery equipment... as well as demining, whether the west, which has so far been very late with military assistance, will listen to this is

an unanswered question, especially against the background of the internal political struggle in the united states and still the unapproved aid package from ukraine's largest ally, however, there is another option for ending the war, without deep and beautiful breakthroughs. if we recall zaluzhnyi's analogy with the first world war, it ended not because the front fell, but because the rear fell. first in the russian empire, then in the kaiser's germany, where a revolution occurred as a result of worsening economic and social problems. however, there is still little hope for such a scenario. sanctions against russia have not lived up to expectations, and it does not look like putin's regime will run out of money for an aggressive slaughter in the coming years. attention, an incredible new product from unbox tv: super warm and very comfortable alaska

of the minister of defense of ukraine, president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyy replaced the commander of the medical forces of the armed forces of ukraine. instead of the general of the medical service tetyana ostashchenko general of the medical service anatolii kazmirchuk, head of the national military medical clinical center of the chief military clinical hospital in kyiv, was appointed as the new commander. we will now talk about this and other things with yurii gudymenko, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine, the head of the ukrainian association mriya. glory to ukraine, mr. yury. glory to heroes. well, we understand that tetiana ostashchenko was dismissed from her post and anatoly kazmirchuk was appointed accordingly. well, now there is an initiative from the veterans' side organizations regarding the public report of the relevant minister. about 40 veteran public organizations turned to the initiative with a demand for a public report from the minister of veteran affairs, yulia laputtina. you have the word,

maybe you can share information about ostashchenko's resignation, and then we will move on to the situation with the relevant minister for veterans' affairs. well, after ostashchenko's resignation, everything is really simple. i think that every volunteer who, at one time, collected money for turnstiles. that is, on the elementary basis of what should be every soldier, well, he will agree that the ministry of defense is not doing very well in terms of providing medical care, he said this very diplomatically, and according to the minister of cleaning yulia leputtina, the situation is also very simple there, in fact, the ministry does not actually work, his job, in fact, well i would say her job as a minister. and the relevant ministry is about 1% of what should be now, and now public organizations, mostly veteran organizations, want

a very simple thing, they want a public report from the minister, who will soon be on position, because i spent literally, recently i was in one of the medical institutions where they treat... wounded soldiers, i'm just asking, there are 20 people sitting there, i just asked a few questions, one of them, do you know about the existence of the ministry of veterans , and out of two dozen people there, said that they know about the existence of this ministry, as many as two of them, both fighters who were still in the ato before the full scale, i think this comprehensively testifies to the role of the ministry of veterans, to communication with the military, who otherwise, they will become veterans in in the future, and says a lot about ms. leputtina's success in this position, while i would like to emphasize that as a person, as people to people,

there are no questions about latina in principle, everyone who knows her says that she is a person, she is herself good in itself, just in its place, and it seems it's time to fix it. mr. yuriy, if we talk about certain areas under the responsibility of the ministry of veterans, which in your opinion deserve the fastest possible response from the relevant ministry, from the cabinet, i would say as follows, since the main, priority task of the ministry of veterans is the formation of state policy in the direction of veterans, then even with this, well, with the absolutely basic thing, policy, that is, it is the foundation on which everything else will be built. what benefits veterans receive, whether they receive loans, whether they receive housing, whether they receive land or not, for example, all this is based on the foundation of state policy,

even this state policy is actually not formed, but i think that viewers and journalists could pay attention to that recently, several public organizations jointly wrote a large document of more than 100 pages, in which they propose: their vision of state policy, because it is now in fact absent, simply absent, there is no foundation, in the absence of a foundation , to build some kind of building from various directions of social protection , rehabilitation, burial and so on, well, it is a priori to condemn this building to the fact that it will disappear into the muddy history, precisely in such a statement, because without a foundation nothing can be built, it contradicts healthy gozum without a doubt, without a foundation, it is possible to build, well, but maybe there are some advisory organizations, for example, there is a public council under the ministry of veterans, and here is the question, why have we not heard, well, we

understand that the war is going on and we understand that it is most likely will continue, and accordingly it is necessary to reorganize as soon as possible what you call the state policy for veterans affairs, i think that maybe on the paper level everything is just fine, the question is about tactics, well, the key question, have you heard or not , and if you have heard the relevant ones correctly directed advice, why did not react? you know, in the united states of america, where there is a department of veterans affairs, which is... second in budget and number of employees after the department of defense, there is this very simple principle: nothing about us without us, which in direct translation into a more understandable language means , that nothing about veterans can be decided without consultation with the veterans themselves, without consultation with veteran organizations, without consultation with the families of the dead and so on and so on, and that is

why public organizations are demanding publicly... a report, because whether something is happening in the ministry or not something is happening in the ministry, no one can really understand, and most of the managers, top managers of the ministry, deputies, heads of departments and those others and all others who must directly perform the work and coordinate the work of his subordinates, they are now suspended by the minister, in the status of temporary acting duties, which actually means that in such a status... they can be dismissed by the minister at any minute and from any of the points view of the minister mistake, as a result they don't want to make mistakes, and not to make mistakes is easier than anything in a very simple way , to do nothing at all, that's what they don't do, well , in any case, we understand that now the deputies of the verkhovna rada voted for a new budget for

next year, we understand that, well, there should be iron programs for veterans, concrete programs that would not be subject to one or another reduction, i don’t know if i have discussed with you, in general, the logic of next year’s budgeting, well, but what would your opinion would still be worth it to introduce additional expenditure lines, look, there are a lot of things that could be changed, i would, to be honest, in the absence of...politics, you can't talk about this either in the absence of state policy, but in my opinion , then the logic should have been aimed at monetizing benefits. i am talking about the fact that now, at a time when veterans continue to be considered as state employees, state employees, well , beneficiaries, to put it bluntly, a large amount of money goes to compensate for these benefits, as in the local,

both at the regional level and at the level... of the state, despite the fact that now those veterans who are now becoming veterans are mostly people who received serious injuries that do not give them the opportunity to continue serving in the armed forces of ukraine , which are deducted from military records, and in my honest opinion , it would be much better to reduce the number of those benefits that are provided, for example, a benefit for free installation of a landline phone, and the money for this is included in the budget every year, so i would say sooner about the fact that, upon leaving the army, a veteran would receive live money, live money that would decrease every month, that is, conditionally speaking, so that there would not be this hole, as it is now, you in the army receive 1000 for fighting, you

were wounded. you got your injury payout and you're still getting pennies, just pennies as a veterans pension , while trying to find yourself in the world, looking for a job, a house that can be born and so on, you could be offered benefits that would decrease every month, big payouts , starting, for example, with 1,000 per month, which would would gradually reduce to the same pension, but give a person time to adapt, time to find a job or possibly invest. it was at least logical. thank you, mr. yuri, an extremely important conversation. yuriy gudymenko, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine, head of the ukrainian association mriya, was in touch with us. news time is now starting, iryna koval, now i will present all the most important things. your word, iryna. thank you, antin. yes, indeed, everything will be as you said, literally in a moment i will tell you about the most important events at this time.
