now we all honor the dead ukrainians with a moment of silence. let's observe a moment of silence in memory of ukrainian soldiers and peaceful citizens of ukraine who died in the war started by russia.

my greetings, this is svoboda ranok, my name is kateryna nekrecha, and in this morning's stream we talk about the following topics: putin seems to be winning the war in ukraine, so far, this is the headline of an article in the publishing house, journalists write that for the first time after the invasion of ukraine, it looks like so that putin can win. what are the advantages of the russian military potential and international relations , the authors of the british publication saw what the western world could oppose. russian aviation forces shelled the area of ​​the village of krynki on the left bank of the dnieper, the general staff said. there they confirm that the armed forces continue to hold occupied positions on the occupied coast. british intelligence says that russia has probably started deploying

the guards airborne division formed there for the first time. what is the situation in the kherson region, what is known about the advance of ukrainian forces? the sbu searched the pochaiv lavra in connection with the case about the alleged incitement of national enmity and hatred by the head of the monastery. clerics allegedly questioned the existence of ukraine on the website of the lavra. a spokesman for the uocp says that he is not at all sure whether the lavra has a website. what is the situation in the lavra today, where were the seminary students taken, and what will happen to the paradise lavra. every weekday morning from 9:00 a.m. we talk about events in ukraine and the situation at the front. here on this broadcast, stay with us to stay updated . russian aviation forces shelled the area of ​​the village of krynky on the left bank kherson oblast, this is reported in the general staff of ukraine. they also say that the armed forces continue to hold occupied positions on the left bank of the dnieper. it is interesting that the ukrainian public and russian pro-war

bloggers reported on the powerful airstrikes on krynyk before. a photo of a completely destroyed settlement even appeared on the network, but in the general staff's report, this village is being guessed for the first time. analysts of the deep state project wrote a day earlier that the situation in this settlement is difficult. russian forces are pulling up reinforcements from the bahamian direction and maintenance of the bridgehead is expensive for the ukrainian military. however, if the armed forces do not expand the area of ​​control there, this heroism may turn into a tragedy. believed to be in the deep state. the russian ministry of defense reports that russian forces launched artillery and air strikes in the direction of kherson and allegedly lost 55 soldiers. analysts of the american institute for the study of war said the day before that ukrainian forces had advanced in krynk. they also wrote about russia's inability to create a cohesive command structure among the forces that are defending on the left bank, and this allegedly continues to worsen the morale of russian soldiers and their combat

capabilities, analysts say. the spokesman of the ukrainian general staff, andriy kovalev, said on the air of the telethon that the russian command did not agree with the assault units on the location of the minefields on the left bank, and this led to fifty casualties among the units of the 810th marine brigade of the russian federation, which arrived in krynyk in early october. and one of the divisions of this brigade refused to storm the ukrainian positions near the village through lack of coordination with artillery. and bad weather - said koval. earlier this week , information also appeared about the death of russian general, deputy commander of the 14-14th army corps of the russian armed forces, volodymyr zavatsky, on the left bank of the kherson region. the organization of graduates of the moscow higher all-russian command school, the kremlin, confirms that zavadsky died. russian telegram channels, the cheka ogpu write that the general blew up the name. precisely in tyla, and the database

reports that it did not happen in khersonska, v kharkiv region, near izyum. important history is written that this is the seventh confirmed case of the death of a high-ranking russian officer in ukraine. the russian ministry of defense did not report anything about the death of their general. we will talk about the situation in kherson region further. serhiy brechuk, spokesman of the ukrainian volunteer army south, joined our broadcast. i congratulate you. glory to ukraine, congratulations, colleague. hero of glory, tell me what the situation is in krynk, based on what you can tell and what you know? well, why are we talking about the russian aviation struck again with air weapons, precisely. in the area of ​​this settlement, this is not the first such action in this location, the ukrainian general staff has already reported about it, in particular, this is a continuation of the russian army's efforts to really knock out ukrainian units from the left bank from those positions, from those bridgeheads that were conquered on the left bank and where

the damage by fire means and the personnel of enemy and conventional equipment continues, we are talking about the fact that today the losses of the enemy there are really very high, they... happen to us, too, at a considerable cost, because it is clear that the location is complicated, krinki, in principle, this settlement no longer exists , and actually this can be seen from the video series that already exist today, which are published, as well as photographic materials, we we can say that today there are certain gains in that, with such surgical methods, units of the armed forces of ukraine were able to cut olezhka nova kakhovka road in several places, this is the main road. logistics for units of the armed forces of the russian federation, which are conducting combat operations exactly in this direction. on the other hand, we can say that these efforts of the enemy to destroy the ukrainian bridgeheads lead to the fact that the grouping of troops of the dnipro,

in this direction, has such a name, this group of the russians is increasing its combat capabilities, today we can talk about , that somewhere around 70,000 personnel have been accumulated, precisely in this grouping of troops in relation to the airborne division, the airborne division, we remember that the commander of the airborne forces of the russian federation, general teplynskyi, is currently in command of this kherson direction yes, the 104th division is really deploying, apparently there, at least in certain positions , the 337th airborne assault regiment has already been spotted, it is this 104th division, this 104th division, it was withdrawn from the zaporizhzhia direction and sent. here to strengthen the russian attack, we can really talk about the 810th brigade, a separate brigade of marines, this is the city of sevastopol, a brigade that was not beaten by our ukrainian military for the first time, starting from kyiv, and finally they are doing it now on the left bank, this

brigade passed several rotations, and she today, together with the so-called zetorm units, he is trying to frontally attack the positions that are being defended by ours. units, indeed the morale of this particular brigade, as with the storm, they, well, let's say this, these moods are somewhat panicky, at least alarming, there is a certain lack of coordination, and the frontal eyes of the attack, they lead to the fact that the enemy carries huge losses in these meat assaults, but the 104th division is now not all units known, where they put them forward and how they will use this reserve, which accumulates there is information that certain movements, this is the 104th division, its regiments, its respective units attached there, they are directed somewhere closer to the depth of the territory of the temporarily occupied kherson region, they may even appear near the crimean

isthmus, here already a question arises , what riddles the russian command is trying to solve, the ukrainian command , i think that our military has enough, i have no doubt about it, just enough combat experience and analytical abilities to finally solve this plan the enemy, why is this being done, the situation on the left bank remains very difficult, but the most important thing is that our positions are there, our bridgeheads are being held, and that is why we see how the enemy is trying to put pressure on these positions as much as possible, and i also want to ask you, you know what, russia confirmed the death of its general, major volodymyr zavadsky , in the war in ukraine. he was blown up by a mine in tyla, do you know anything about him, maybe about his role in the battles in the kherson region, and do you have information, after all, it happened in the kherson region, or did it happen with him in the kharkiv region? well, according to our information, this really happened in the kherson region, and now it

is necessary to check everything again, because we understand very well that the leak from the russian side is as low as possible, indeed, the general who was you. a cadet of the elite russian military academy, the so-called kremlin cadets, he did not blow up a mine, or our drone was used, which destroyed the car in which the general was moving... it was a planned operation, or perhaps the crew of this car simply fell under ukrainian fire, on today, it is very difficult to say, of course, if it was a special operation, hunting another russian occupying general, of course, that would be great, but on the other hand, the destruction of such a person, of such a rank, after all, the deputy commander of the corps, well, that a high-ranking official, especially a corps that does not take part in hostilities, of course, nothing reduces the defeat of this

high-ranking official, everything really happened, as they say, for the ukrainian side, it is very good, he was one of the active participants in the hostilities on the territory of our country, therefore i think that this is a loss for the russians, if we also talk about one more case, on november 28, the armed forces struck a building in the occupied village of yuvileyne in the kherson region, where it was reported that a meeting of occupation officials was taking place. in the center of national resistance, what consequences are you aware of as of now? well, we are talking about the fact that at least five occupiers were killed there, more than ten were wounded, this was a targeted action, a targeted ukrainian attack was prepared, ukrainian intelligence worked, the partisan movement worked, the ukrainian underground worked, and we actually see the consequences of what happened, i want to note that among those high-ranking officials, there respectively. who were or were personnel, these are exclusively all russians

who arrived, including to perform their functions on the territory of temporarily occupied ukraine, this part of ukraine, so this is an achievement, this is appropriate work, this is not an accident, this is exactly what the armed forces of ukraine demonstrate , hit purely on military objects, military targets. sergey, thank you for participating in our broadcast and for telling what the situation is in the occupied part of kherson oblast, serhiy bratchuk, spokesman. volunteer army of the south was a guest of svoboda ranok. one person died and six were injured as a result of an airstrike carried out by the russian military on the city of toretsk, donetsk region, the day before. this is reported by the donetsk regional military administration. rescuers of the state emergency service and policemen pulled out two people from under the rubble. in total, three people were injured. the works have been completed, the state emergency service reports. meanwhile, in place shelling of apartment buildings. house in the city of novohorodivka, in the same donetsk region , two dead people were found, and

three more people, including a child, may be under the rubble. this information was reported to the ministry of internal affairs as of 4 p.m. on november 30. at that time , 153 tons of building structures were dismantled. emergency and rescue operations are ongoing, the agency reported. earlier , the ministry of internal affairs reported that on the night of november 30 , the russian military fired six s-300 missiles at the pokrovsky district of donetsk region. in addition to novorodivka, pokrovsk was under attack and myrnograd. in total, ten people were injured. we will talk about the situation in donetsk region further. serhii horbetenko, a correspondent of radio liberty, joined our broadcast. sergey, i congratulate you, thank you for participating, tell me what that night was like in donetsk region and whether all the consequences of the attack on turkey are already known. and the people of novogorodiv? we are lucky, this night was relatively quiet, except for yesterday's incident, the evening. and there really was an airstrike on turkey and, unfortunately, one person died. as

for yesterday's tragedy, when russian troops fired at three at the same time cities of the western part of donetsk region, unfortunately, there are currently no updates on the situation in novogrodivka, that is, search and rescue operations are ongoing, three people may really be under the rubble, this is, according to eyewitnesses, a family, a young family, the father worked at the mine. the wife worked in a branch of oschadbank, and the child is only eight years old, a girl, she went to the second grade, but it is said that this family's confusion fell on the epicenter of the russian s300 missile, so unfortunately, the chances that they are still alive well, they are meager are practically zero, i want to say that this attack , which took place the night before yesterday at 11:30 p.m., it was coordinated, the rockets

arrived at the same time, and it is also worth noting that in addition to residential buildings, in addition to the victims of civilians, also partially damaged departments the police were in pokrovsk and myrnograd, that is, we can see that they may have deliberately tried to harm law enforcement officers as well. to the system of the donetsk region, so far this is all the information. serhii, if we talk about the last period, how active are the shellings of russian forces, what kind of weapon and where are these mostly. if we talk about the northern region of donetsk region, these are the cities of slovyansk, kramatorsk, druzhkivka and kostiantynivka, then the last shelling, let's say slovyansk was as early as october 17, that is, from october 17, that is slovyansk, kramatorsk and druzhkivka, fortunately, i'm afraid to offend, but for now they live in tysha, as

for the city of kostyantynivka, which is the closest to bahmu. where russian troops are currently trying to advance, there was shelling just a few days ago, there was no information about injured civilians, but this attack took place from the smerch rocket system. the blows were so powerful that even in kramatorsk, people felt the blast wave, but fortunately the rockets fell on the outskirts and did not cause substantial damage, but these cities located in the west of the donetsk region, in particular, the city of selidove, where already russian s-300 missiles also hit a residential building, hit a hospital, as well as pokrovsk, mirnograd, ukrainian, they are located approximately in the middle between avdiivka, where fierce hostilities and the city of pokrovsk, i.e.

pokrovsk is currently the most important city of donetsk region, it is the hub through which supplies are made. petrovsk region and military cargo, and civilian, humanitarian cargo, and as far as i understand, the russian troops are currently trying, well, i would say , to destroy, clear the near rear, through which logistics take place, and we see their clear intention to advance on pokrovsk further from avdiivka . serhii, if we talk about evacuation, whether it is taking place from which settlements, it is happening all the time or not? the evacuation actually never stopped, and currently the bely yayangol police units are trying to persuade and take people out of the zone of active hostilities, in the lyman direction - these are the villages of torske, zarichne, nevske, this is the city of avdiyivka, where more than a thousand civilians are still located, but behind according to my observations, units are actually being evacuated,

that is, those people who remained here, they have already made the final decision to stay. that is, the evacuation has never stopped, but at the moment it is proceeding at a very low pace. sergey, thank you for participating and telling about the situation in donetsk region today. serhiy horbatenko, rfe/rl correspondent with the latest news from the region. in 2024 , ukraine intends to increase the production of missiles, ammunition, weapons and military equipment several times. deputy minister of defense ivan gavryliuk stated this, in particular, on the broadcast of the news marathon. for him. you will pay the most attention to the production of air defense equipment from conventional portable anti-aircraft missile systems to pppo systems with a range of more than 100 km. gavrilyuk specified that in the approved state budget for next year, about 175 billion uah is allocated for the purchase of missiles and ammunition. i would like to point out that in ukraine , the main item

of expenditure in the state budget for next year is defense. almost 22% of gdp is directed to it, that is about 45 billion dollars, and more than 2 billion dollars were invested in the defense-industrial complex for the actual production of uavs and ammunition. i would also like to add that for the first time since the collapse of the soviet union, russia allocated a record budget for the army and the military-industrial complex. it will establish a third of all state expenditures, the moscow times writes about it. the federal budget for 24-26 years, which was signed by putin, predicts that in a year the expenses under the national defense article will increase to approximately 80 billion dollars. putin seems to be winning the war in ukraine, so far. the economist published an article with this title. journalists write that for the first time since the russian president invaded ukraine, it looks like he can win. putin, as the journalists note, has put his country on a war footing and strengthened it

his power he procures military materials abroad and helps set up a global. south against america, its advantage, according to the economist, now lies in holding out, not in taking territory. neither army is able to supplant the other, so the war can last for many years, the publication notes. they also believe that next year russia will have a stronger position to fight, because it has more drones and artillery shells. and putin himself is calm about the terrible losses in his army. and as the economist notes, the west could do much more to to disappoint putin. if a decision were made there, they could deploy industrial and financial resources that would eclipse russian ones. however, this is hampered by, i quote, fatalism, complacency, and a staggering lack of strategic vision, especially in europe. mykhailo samoch, deputy director of the army, conversion and disarmament center for international affairs, joins our broadcast. welcome

to our broadcast, thank you for joining. good morning. so, the economist writes that putin's advantage lies in endurance, not in capturing territory. do you think this is enough to win the war and what does ukraine need to change the situation? well, then you have to rewind, why? in general, putin did not start this war in order to compete in endurance, he attacked ukraine in order to destroy ukraine and, of course, create conditions for a strategic advantage over the west, therefore, if he stutters on the spot, and in principle, western observers analyze the situation , they need just that to talk about the goals in the war that putin set for himself and to what extent he achieved them, it is obvious that he did not achieve them, and his current strategy is to really drag out...' this war, that is, it is really a bet that after all, russia is objectively, physically larger than ukraine, and in conditions where, again, the west cannot

provide sanctions control, total sanctions control over the e-activity of the russian economy, unfortunately, and russia continues, well, banally, to earn huge money , that is, all these billions and trillions rubles that are invested in defense, they are earned abroad, not in russia itself, and in these conditions of the west, it is really necessary to draw conclusions on how to win this war, since this war is obviously no longer a war of russia against ukraine, and putin understands that this is a war for the survival of his regime, that's exactly how he perceives it, that is, this article is simply enough to what i'm leading to, this article lacks understanding, whether consciously or unconsciously. by western authors, but what is happening in general, what is happening is that putin is trying to preserve his regime, putin

and the people who stand behind it, and therefore the main task of us, of ukraine and the west, is to destroy this regime, if there is this strategic understanding, then i agree with the authors that the west lacks this strategic understanding, which must be destroyed by all measures, ukraine is engaged in the military, and the rest should be dealt with, first of all, with economic methods and tools, together we must destroy putin's regime, i'm not talking about russia, let's focus on putin's regime for now, but that's not enough, because let's just listen, read last statements of the same the secretary general of nato himself, who declares that our task as an alliance, the main thing for this period is the absence of an escalation of the conflict with russia, or a direct conflict with nato and russia, this is an absolutely wrong position that the alliance has taken and, by the way, the biden administration, it is necessary to be open about

this is to say, occupied from the first day of the war, the lack of readiness for a confrontation with russia and , moreover, statements that we will avoid this direct confrontation, with such statements, with such an approach, of course, putin wins, as, as the authors of this, this write text because indeed, putin has a clear understanding of what he is doing, he is simply... saving his life, and ukraine does not understand what the task is, that is , simply to support ukraine, but for what purpose, just that ukraine survives, this task, of course well, but it's not enough to win this war, it looks like putin has refocused on this long war and is re-aligning his country on these military rails, do you think, on this long war, or with the goal of, you know, to win so that ukraine wins. to the western world, he adjusted, is there still no common understanding of what to do next? the west, here it is very interesting, the west at the, let's say, practical

, tactical level, if we talk about, for example, the beginning of a change in the situation in the european and american defense-industrial complex, and it is changing its approach, and this is obvious, because the production of armed and military techniques, although now there is a feeling of failure somewhat, because, such a feeling and such decisions, even on a practical level, they began to happen later than it should have been needed situation, that is, not about a year later, if these decisions regarding the increase in the production of ammunition, the increase in the production of aircraft for transfer to ukraine, the increase in the production of air defense equipment and so on took place in the 22nd year, and not in the 23rd year, because let's see , all these decisions... took place in the 23rd year, and it was necessary for all this to be adopted in the 22nd, then, now the situation would be completely different, so we come to the conclusion that now we have such a failure in

the schedule, and it is obvious that our western partners will have a million rounds of ammunition by spring next year, and europe and a million munitions, the united states and so on, and there will be an increase in the production of pppo systems, but it will be in about a few months, and now there is a very difficult moment when russia has begun to press just expecting to sell the ukrainian defense and will create conditions for the signing of some freezing, let's say, agreements with ukraine, due to the fact that the west and ukraine will not be ready resource-wise, a few months before continuing the war with russia on an equal footing, let's say, mykhailo , which can change the situation, that is, the material says that no army is currently able to supplant the other, so the war can last for many years, i will also mention stortenberg, he said that there is no single system capable of

fundamentally changing the situation , on the battlefield, in your opinion, what should happen in such a military-technological plan and what should change the situation, increasing production, maybe some weapon that is not yet in the ukrainian army, well, in fact, one weapon has never won on the field battle, even more so now in modern war, when modern war is after all a combination of technologies , a combination of tactics, doctrines, that is, if we even say that it is always a modern doctrine , it is described: by the words joint, or combined, or, for example, network centric quafe, i.e. network, network-centric war, i.e. all means of defeat, all means of intelligence, all means of control and communication must be united in one network and, literally, in real time, find enemy targets, provide information, the whole instructions, make decisions and destroy this enemy, there is nothing new

here, that is, it is necessary to extract... that this intelligence complex, which should be imagined by the modern army, worked quickly, in fact on a real time scale, intensively and powerfully, and therefore here, in principle, that we, what we have to do is really fulfill those, let's say, the minimum requirements for the armed forces, which is , for example, air superiority, when they say f16 is not going to change anything, i think it will, because when we say, and there is a system, but there are certain gaps in this system, so there are gaps in our system, dominance in the air is a basic, basic requirement, a basic principle of conducting modern, especially offensive operations, i am not talking about defensive ones, and that is why the f16 will change a lot, in in any case, we will plant, let's say, reject the russian aviation, this will already be a huge plus for the ukrainian forces, foreign and

other components in order to conduct it more effectively, this is, of course , unmanned technologies at all levels, which will allow us to act technologically, and of course on others in the directions that, in principle, and general zaluzhnyi described in his articles, this is the demining system, this is the electronic warfare system, that is, in principle, we have an understanding of how to do it, we need to scale it, we need everything more, if we put it in simple words, unfortunately , once again, our western partners made their decision too late regarding the fact that the defense-industrial complex of the european countries of the united states should work in wartime conditions, in fact, and we see how much is still debatable, for example, the issue of approving the budget for next year in the united states, i hope that it will be approved after all, and then it will be possible to say that in the 24th year we will have all these means, but

this is a difficult period with... ... we must understand that he will be really extraordinary. mykhailo, thank you for joining our broadcast and we talked about the military capabilities of russia and ukraine, well, the western world, that is why we referred to the economist article with such a loud headline, which of course bypassed the ukrainian media, the headline putin seems to be winning in war so far, that's how they wrote mykhailo. tamus was a guest on our broadcast, and we are moving on to other topics. the osce council, which was held the day before in north macedonia, was ignored by a number of ministers due to the absence of russian foreign minister lavrov. officially , representatives of ukraine, the baltic countries and poland refused to participate, unofficially, several other countries, and some.
