9:08 am
shelling, more than 100 people came there to help donate blood. i thank you for participating and telling me about the situation in kherson and the kherson region. oleksandr tolekon. the spokesman of the kherson regional military administration was a guest of svoboda ranok. thank you. the execution of those who surrender is a war crime. so. the ukrainian commissioner for human rights of the verkhovna rada, dmytro lubinets, commented on the video that appeared online. we are talking about the footage published in the telegram channel deep state the day before. as the analysts write, it seems that the russian military is shooting at two ukrainian soldiers who surrendered as prisoners. for ethical reasons, we will not. to show this video in its entirety, we cannot quickly verify it in the conditions of war. the report says that it happened near stepovoy, in donetsk region, a group of russian soldiers entered the position of the 45th separate rifle battalion of the armed forces of ukraine, due to a lack of ammunition, two
9:09 am
ukrainian soldiers were forced to surrender. they went unarmed to a group of russian soldiers, after which the latter opened fire. dmytro. in a telegram, nenets emphasized that it can be concluded from the footage that the soldiers of the armed forces surrendered, so he will turn to the international committee of the red cross, whose mandate includes the recording of crimes against prisoners of war, as well as to the un, with a demand for recording as early as today, december 4 russia's violation of international humanitarian law. the video clearly shows that the ukrainian military is taking the necessary steps, which show that they surrendering, were not disarmed, and with their hands up, they did not pose any threat. the russian side had to capture them and give them the status of prisoners of war. the russian federation must be punished for every such case of execution of ukrainian soldiers who surrender. the probable
9:10 am
execution of the ukrainian military was confirmed in the center of strategic communications of the armed forces of ukraine, stating that the russian federation has once again violated the laws and customs of war, the norms of international law. office of the prosecutor general of ukraine announced the beginning of the investigation into the specified crime, and vitaliy barabash, the head of the avdiyiv city military administration, said on the air of the telethon that the defense forces attacked this position. occupied by the russian army, according to the official, the russian group there was liquidated. the russian side has not responded to the accusations in any way yet, i will only add that earlier both ukraine and russia accused each other of shooting soldiers who surrendered to prisoners, and according to the articles of the geneva convention, murder soldiers who laid down their arms is considered a war crime. andrii yusov, a representative of the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense of ukraine, joins our broadcast. i congratulate you, mr. andrii, thank you for joining, i congratulate you, good afternoon, what can you tell us about this
9:11 am
case of execution, as stated by lubinets, which troops of the russian federation could have done it, what is known about it at the moment, which units? you have already announced information about the official reaction of ukraine and appeals to the international bodies responsible for monitoring and compliance with the geneva convention and international humanitarian law, that is. another war crime of the occupiers, today the corresponding documents and official appeals are drawn up by the coordination headquarters for the treatment of prisoners of war and with relevant appeals to the international committee of the red cross, it is clear that heavy fighting is going on around avdiyivka, but this of course in no way justifies the actions of the occupiers and invaders, in fact. we saw online that unarmed ukrainians were shot and executed
9:12 am
of the military, proceedings have been initiated, a criminal case has been initiated, all details are being clarified and the relevant law enforcement agencies will comment, one more question regarding this case, and can you confirm barabash's words that those russian soldiers who shot unarmed soldiers of the armed forces of ukraine were liquidated? well, it's hard to say now. that is the same, but the situation near avdiivka, and this particular settlement, is very dynamic, and there is information about, these are not isolated cases when fortifications change hands, but it can be argued that exactly we cannot eliminate those now, these points need to be further verified, mr. andrii, i understand correctly that there is no such information that you could voice, regarding more specifics, which russian military... were there, that is, how they are currently there, this is sensitive information at the moment, and
9:13 am
during the investigation all details will be reported, another sensitive information, but maybe you have news about this, wanted to ask what is the current condition of the wife of the head of gur, mariana budanova, mariana budanova, she underwent a course of treatment and now continues to be under the supervision and examination of doctors, her condition has improved, and those consequences and symptoms of heavy metal poisoning, which were to a large extent now disappeared and were corrected thanks to the timely treatment of doctors, the effective work of ukrainian specialists, the ukrainian hospital. the investigation, internal investigations, conducted by the internal security units of the main intelligence directorate, also continues, regarding the poisoning of maryana budanovo and the poisoning of other gurbo officers. have you managed to find it yet? involved and find out the circumstances of the poisoning, what
9:14 am
kind of poison it was, under what circumstances and because of what food? i can confirm the information about the detection of mercury and arsenic, that is, it is about heavy metals, otherwise, the official investigation continues. speaking globally, has russia now stepped up measures to stabilize the situation in ukraine, and can you give examples if this is really happening? yes, well, first of all , it should be recalled that since the beginning of the annexation of crimea and russian military aggression against ukraine in the 14th year in the donbass, russia does not stop the hybrid information war, in particular , the conduct of a whole series of information and psychological operations against ukraine, both inside the country and abroad in the world against our state, and recently, since the month of november,
9:15 am
significant , a significant intensification of the enemy's efforts to carry out exactly such operations in parallel with active actions on the front line, therefore, since november, we have been observing significant activity, and from the latest examples that can be cited, searches of various kinds are recorded leaders of public opinion to voice not directly, but in one way or another, narratives that could contribute to advancement in ukraine and in the world. of russian theses, regarding russian military aggression and destabilizing the situation in ukraine, this is not done directly, it is done very often through other front organizations, expert groups, this is how funds are offered, rewards are offered, and therefore ukrainian leaders of public opinion, experts, political scientists should be of course, very attentive, when with any
9:16 am
such proposals, to them third parties apply, from the last example, literally yesterday in kyiv there was a reminder action about the need to release ukrainian prisoners of war from russian captivity, and in particular the defenders of azovstal, this is a peaceful action, this is an action of our native defenders, and of course people have the right and should remind, so that the world does not forget about the problems of ukrainian prisoners of war in russian captivity, propaganda immediately began to use this action, they say, people came out with a demand for the cessation of hostilities, the demobilization of the military, the return of the ukrainian military from the front to the rear and so on, and actively began to spread exactly these theses on russian and other information sites, this is one of the few
9:17 am
examples of how, in principle , the russian information service is unpretentious, but quite active. if we talk about people who are trying to involve, you are also talking about opinion leaders, there through third parties, in this special operation to destabilize, then whether these people, aware of such attempts, they turn to the ukrainian services in order to report this, yes, of course, from with many the leaders of public opinion are actively interacting with each other from the point of view of protecting the ukrainian national information space, and such interaction is yielding results, and i also wanted to ask you about the attack by ukrainian forces on the occupiers , which took place on december 1 at the entrance to the temporarily occupied melitopol, can you tell me the details, who implemented it, what was the goal and whether they are satisfied with the result, such operations are always implemented in cooperation, of course
9:18 am
it is the support of the local population, of course it is the active participation of the resistance movement, and of course it interacts with the security and defense forces of ukraine. as a matter of fact, these factors, first of all, i will repeat once again, it is the support of the local population that allows us to regularly carry out effective actions, direct action measures, effective special operations in the temporarily occupied territories, which allows us to destroy the personnel of the enemy, destroy the supply routes, bc, equipment and, in many cases, individual representatives of the occupiers or occupation administrations, who are of particular importance or marked in the commission of war crimes, therefore these all the operations are part of the general plan and they will certainly be continued and they are extremely discouraging to the occupiers, they understand,
9:19 am
they for their part understand that they definitely cannot be safe in the occupied territories. mr. andrew. thank you for joining svoboda ranok, our broadcast, andriy yusov, a representative of the main intelligence department of the ministry of defense of ukraine, was a guest of our broadcast. boryspil international airport can be opened only when, i quote, ukrainian skies will be completely closed from russian skies drones and missiles. mykhailo podolyak, adviser to the head of the office of the president of ukraine, stated this on the air of the telethon. according to him, this is not a matter of tomorrow. this security situation today is not yet complete. but from the point of view of what we should think about the future, we can say that airports should work in ukraine. deputy head of the president's office andrii sybiga spoke about the opening of ukrainian airports the day before. he noted that boryspil airport is planned to be the first to open in ukraine, as soon as there are suitable conditions for this. however, in october, the director of the boryspil airport, oleksiy dobrevskyi, in an interview
9:20 am
with a politician, emphasized that, i quote, the facility is ready to start receiving planes a month after completion. war this is not the first statement by ukrainian officials about resuming the operation of airports. the head of the presidential office, andriy yermak, at a meeting with ambassadors earlier, also expressed confidence that boryspil will soon receive and send aircraft. that in 2024 ukraine will have connections with the world, he also expressed hope in the comments of lb in november and the mayor of lviv, andriy sadovy, there, although it was about the lviv summer resort. february 24 , 22nd year. ukraerorukh announced the closure of ukrainian airspace for civilian aircraft due to russia's invasion of ukrainian territory. oleksandr musienko, the head of the military-legal research center, joined our broadcast about the security situation, from a security point of view. i congratulate you. congratulations. mr. oleksandr, in your opinion, how realistic is the possibility of opening
9:21 am
airports for civilian flights just in time martial law are all these statements and conversations so very, very much for the future? well, it seems to me that for the future during the martial law regime, it is unlikely to happen, or, let's say. that the matter is not only and not at all a state of war , it is still about russian aggression, and until this russian military aggression against ukraine is stopped, it is unlikely that we can guarantee security, together with 100%, together with , of course, how opportunities are only increasing and growing, thanks to our western partners, primarily in terms of closure of the ukrainian sky, because we see that a huge number of russian, launched by russia... drone missiles are being shot down and these capabilities are growing and work is constantly being carried out, this is a constant priority issue for our authorities, for our european
9:22 am
partners, the west, of course, that the risks of dangers become somewhat less, at the same time, it is simply impossible to exclude them by 100%, because it is perfectly clear that the enemy can use deliberate attacks on certain objects, just for that, knowing that, let's say, it is possible there... some connection is made and so on, to prevent this. if we speak conceptually , has the air defense of, for example , the ukrainian capital, say, in general, or the kyiv region, in particular, the boryspil airport , increased compared to the events of almost two years ago? make it possible to destroy russian enemy missiles, even hypersonic ones, which, unfortunately , are safe, therefore, from the point of view of security, guaranteeing certain, let's say, relatively, we can say safe conditions for passengers,
9:23 am
of course, that it is possible to do it in other points, maybe in the first place, maybe not even in lviv, in uzhhorod, where, let’s say, it is even safer, or maybe in lviv, although lviv is also attacked, but as long as the hostilities continue, the risks will always be found. some formula of how flights and passenger flows will be distributed and that the airport can operate exclusively in a limited mode, provided that the intensification of hostilities decreases, theoretically it is possible, here i think that the representatives of the ukrainian authorities and many people say, first of all , they are fed up with the israeli experience, well, because many of us have seen the same thing as during the current escalation of the war, the attacks of hamas terrorists on israel. massive rockets , this is certainly not the level of russian missiles and cannot be compared, they are completely different in terms of the number of explosives and technical capabilities, etc., they are less powerful, but everyone
9:24 am
saw that the airport in tel aviv was working, world leaders flew in, despite numerous missile alarms , even airborne, even chancellor scholz was forced to lie down at the airport in security measures, because there was just an air alert while he was at the airport. and now the israeli experience is being studied very actively with the aim of how it can be fully adapted, or cannot be adapted in ukrainian realities. as far as i know, one hundred percent final decisions on the opening of certain airfields in 2024 have not yet been made. this is a hope, this is an exclusion of possibilities, an examination of possibilities, this is a certain assessment of the situation, but it does not mean that any of these airfields will be accurate. open to civil needs. mr. oleksandr, if we talk about air defense, british intelligence believes that an important confrontation in the war is now the overcoming of ground air defense systems,
9:25 am
russia has the panzer air defense system, thor, you are what they use there, if we talk about the air defense systems of the two parties, whether there is parity here, or whether it is possible, because ukraine still needs to protect its civilian cities, and not only use them at the front. well, you see, obviously there is a certain parity, i will say that, let's proceed from the opportunities that are provided, that is, obviously, our means air defenses, even those we had at the beginning of the full-scale russian invasion, gave us a certain opportunity to repel a number of attacks, i want to remind you that literally in the first few days of the russian aggression, there were 170 sorties deep into ukrainian territory territory of ukraine, russian planes flew in, just to do it
9:26 am
for several days. and i am not talking about the territories in the east, mariupol and kharkiv region, chernihiv region, where vorok is even more intense, but here they were, even actually flew deep the territory of ukraine, and all this reflected the means of air defense of ukraine, then our anti-aircraft missile forces were strengthened by the help that the west began to provide, initially of the soviet model, s-300 buk, other systems , assa, astral and so on, and then we already began to receive a more western standard, and as a result, it can be stated that russia was unable to establish dominance and dominance in the sky, therefore, from the point of view of the result of activity , ukrainian air defense systems, firstly, and very importantly, preserved, preserved in general, their means certainly maintained controllability, communication, coordination and did not allow the enemy to turn our airspace into syrian airspace when
9:27 am
russian air defense systems were operating there. and ruthlessly destroyed civilian cities simply with civilians, provoking flows of refugees in particular, from the point of view of our capabilities, they are also expanding, now we say the opposite, of our capabilities to strike at the enemy and bypass his air defense systems, for ukrainian forces, impression of the goals of pppo, any means, be it beech or tor whether it's armor, or especially the russian s300 or s-400, it's always a priority. on the battlefield is one of the priority targets for our drones, for our artillery, as soon as they are detected, somewhere deep in the occupied territories as well, please note that almost none of the known such large-scale successful attacks on enemy military facilities in crimea, for example, the headquarters of the black sea fleet, or two repair and ship repair plants in sevastopol and kerch, they did not do without strikes on
9:28 am
the means of anti-aircraft... defense with the s-400 and s-300, that is, it is constantly coming, but do these means pose certain challenges and dangers for us , of course, that is, it must be understood that this will to some extent limit the activities of our aviation, in particular the f-16, when we get it, but i just want to remind that the f-16 is capable of being equipped with the same anti- radar missiles that migs are currently equipped with, and gives the opportunity to disable important ones. air defense facilities, radars and anti-aircraft missile systems, so they will also be worked on, although they still exist in russia, and we will also not be allowed to install 100% dominance in the air. mr. oleksandr, we have two minutes, so to summarize and i will add here the words of jens stolteng, who says that it is necessary to support ukraine, it is in the interests of nato, at the same time he says that we must be prepared for bad news, because the current war - this is a war of attrition, what is he talking about,
9:29 am
what is the bad news? and you know that there is a chance, it seems to me, to avoid and get away from the fact that this war is exclusively qualified as a war of attrition, although we are moving towards such trends, for example, this is the left bank of the kherson region, there are still our forces conduct operations, if they are expanded offensively, then it will no longer be a war of attrition, but, stoltenberg is absolutely right, he is mobilizing and consolidating the west, and he reminds the west that the west is overall stronger than russia in a war of attrition, now it is necessary that russia has launched a series of information operations about the fact that there will be a war of attrition, ukraine will definitely lose, well , it will definitely lose without a chance, this cannot be allowed so that the west does not relax and think that listen yes, maybe, yes, maybe i don't need to do anything it seems that the main message and message of the secretary general of nato is addressed to this. i thank you, mr. oleksandr, for participating. oleksandr musienko, head of the center for military legal studies, was a guest of svoboda ranok. this is svoboda ranok, my name is
9:30 am
kateryna nekrecha, and further in this stream we talk about important topics. the leader of the eu opposition faction petro poroshenko and his colleagues were not given permission to leave ukraine. the opposition claims that the disruption of the visit harms the country and its international image. the chairman of the verkhovna rada claims that the representatives faction of the eu with one of the leaders, is one of the leaders on a business trip. so there is no question of any restrictions for individual people's deputies, says ruslan stefanchuk. we will tell the arguments of both sides further. allies should continue to support ukraine in the war, it is in the interests of nato itself, said jens stoltenberg, secretary general of the alliance. he noted that in case of victory, i quote, putin, putin's victory , tragedy awaits ukraine. what do such statements of the head of nato indicate and how is the support of western partners for ukraine changing? we discuss all this on our broadcasts on weekdays from 9:00 on youtube on the radio svoboda channel and
