they would have kamikaze drones that will destroy the enemy, so please, remembering everyone with a moment of silence, help those who are alive. let's observe a moment of silence in memory of the ukrainian military and civilian citizens of ukraine who died in the war started by russia.

greetings, this is svoboda ranok, my name is kateryna nekrecha, and in this stream we talk about the following topics: the situation. in the kupinsky direction in the kharkiv region is difficult - says the commander of the ground forces sirskyi. the telegraph newspaper writes that russian troops are allegedly planning a new one a large-scale offensive on kharkiv oblast on january 15. what is the situation now and what are the military preparing for? the planned arms deliveries to ukraine are too small - the chancellor of germany said and called on european countries to provide more military support to ukraine this year. how are attitudes and intentions to support ukraine in the eu and the usa changing, or will they remain? assistance at the level of last year

or will it drop sharply? the fourth draft law on mobilization has already been submitted to the parliament, meanwhile, the specialized committee is actively working on the government draft law, it needs requires significant revision and contains great corruption risks - say people's deputies. when will the bills be considered in parliament? comment on this video, subscribe to our channel, share this video also with your loved ones and friends, this is important for the development of ukrainian-language youtube. the ukrainian military repelled five attacks by russian forces near the village of senkivka in the kharkiv region. this is reported by the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. the summary states that russian forces are unsuccessfully trying to improve their tactical position in the kupinsky direction. at the same time in the russian ministry of defense is told that nine assault attacks by the armed forces of ukraine were repulsed there during the day. in addition to senkivka, we are talking about the village of ivanivka in the kharkiv region and terny in the donetsk region. the day before, in a comment to interfax ukraine, the commander of the ground forces of the ukrainian armed forces oleksandr syrskyi. said that

the situation in the kupinsky direction remains difficult, there is a constant escalation, but the defense forces of ukraine are destroying the plans of the russian troops, says syrskyi. the enemy continues to conduct active offensive actions in the kupyan forest, trying to break through defense of our troops and advance towards the city. intense hostilities in this direction began in october 2023, and since then the fierce struggle has not subsided here for a single day. every day, the enemy ... storms populated areas, fires at them with artillery and uses aviation. now the enemy is attacking our positions in the area of ​​sinkivka with the aim of further blocking kupyansk. i would like to note that recently the british newspaper telegraph, referring to the data of local military intelligence, reported that ukrainian forces are preparing to repulse a new offensive of russian troops near kharkiv. the publication even named the likely date of this new offensive - january 15, and signs of preparation for such actions... allegedly, there are powerful

shelling of kharkiv and surrounding settlements, which russian forces have been carrying out recently. analysts of the american institute for the study of war say that in the coming weeks, russian troops may intensify their offensive in the kupyansk direction, but their pace and configuration do not indicate an approaching offensive operation along the kupyansk-lyman line, but sufficient forces to start large-scale offensive operations elsewhere, in the north or northeast of the kharkiv region, the russian army currently does not have. responds according to the telegraph article, the head of the kharkiv regional village administration, oleg synigubov, reported that there is no concentration of russian troops on the border with the kharkiv region. at the same time, the russian military is carrying out unprecedented shelling of border settlements, but sinygubov also reports on the construction of fortifications in the kupinsky and limansk directions, as well as from the north. next, we will talk with major nadia zamryga, head of the public relations service of the 14th separate mechanized brigade. on behalf of prince roman the great, i congratulate

you, thank you for joining. good morning. i would like to clarify with you what is happening in the kupinsky direction, in those details, which of course you can tell us. here is the general. syrsky said that the situation is difficult. yes, the situation is really quite complicated. over the last few weeks, we even drew a curve for ourselves, so to speak, of the enemy's behavior. today, as you mentioned, five attacks were repelled in the area of ​​responsibility of our 14th separate mechanized brigade named after prince roman the great. let's say so. a few days before that, this number was more than 10. 10, 13, 15. here. when the enemy suffers heavy losses from the units of our brigade, from the units of neighboring e-e military units. he falls silent,

there, well, conventionally speaking, falls silent. here, and then the number, the number of attacks, decreases, less. 10 here he is regrouping his reserves with another personal force, because he is carrying a lot of human losses, here we are probably replenishing the bull, here it is, obviously, after a very short time, this figure again, the number, yes, maybe it will be more than 10, well, at least we observe this for the last one and a half to two months. general syrskyi also noted that these escalations are happening all the time, this is probably what you are talking about, how it looks in practice, are the forces of the russian federation increasing shelling, are assaults possible, do you see from the number of their manpower and equipment that such how do they increase these attacks? well, along with the fact that

the number of attacks increases, the number of personnel increases accordingly, after the reserves are drawn up, to complete there are units of the enemy , they attack in small groups of infantry, which are sometimes transported by vehicles, sometimes they advance from their areas on foot, but they will fully understand that aerial reconnaissance is working, ah, the weather allows it to work both during the day and at night, well and even until that time, let's say the moment when... the enemy is approaching, well , approaching our line, we are hitting with counter-buckets, drops, the artillery is working very well and clearly, and recently

our tanks have been working very effectively , who leave for direct fire, that's literally from several tens, sometimes even meters, from several hundred meters... the enemy's dugouts and their equipment are struck, well, actually, let's say this, this is how it happens in life. ms. nadiya, are the ukrainian military in the kupinsky area preparing for a large-scale offensive by russian forces, as the western media wrote about it, in particular? unfortunately, i do not know what, in the understanding of our western media. full-scale offensive, but what we're seeing right now is enough to say that uh, let's just say, the enemy is leading very, is trying to conduct very active, ah, actions , uh, assaults, attacks, use of aviation,

use of constant use of artillery, shelling of its settlements around kupyansk, in front of kupyansk, beyond the skil river. let's say the same kharkiv, well, you know , i sometimes get the impression that when the borogh does not manage to carry out its plans, actually on the front line, when attacks are repelled, dozens of enemy personnel are destroyed, a lot of equipment, such as heavy armored vehicles, and automotive equipment, and then for some reason, well, it's me i am analyzing like this, and the shelling is increasing. settlements and the civilian population, maybe it's from helplessness, maybe it's from the fact that they can't achieve their goals on the front line, maybe it's true, but believe me, it's very difficult when you really go through the countryside, where there

were huts yesterday, the day before yesterday , there were buildings, albeit few, but people lived, and today you are already leaving and it is all destroyed and... tangible losses to the russian forces, if we talk about those examples that you can tell, what is it about, what is the number and again anyway, who are those russian military who are currently fighting against ukraine, you know, it is probably not my level to analyze, to voice the numbers of the enemy, here, i think our commander knows this better, here i can... analyze to the extent that we have data at the expense

of the quality of the composition , the one who is fighting against us in the lane of our brigade, there are a lot of mobilized people from places of deprivation of liberty, and they undergo certain training, i will not undertake to judge how high-quality it is and how much time it takes, so... but these people quite a lot, so there are among them those people who have already been fighting for more than a year, that is, they have more experience, well, this is probably the backbone of their units, there are also those people who probably plan these operations, who - let's say, are more knowledgeable in military matters, thank you, who got involved and told about the situation on kupinsky on... direction major nadiya zamryga, head of the public relations service of the 14th separate mechanized brigade named after prince roman the great, was

a guest of our broadcast. thank you. and here is the information that russia has moved one of its own landing ships, again russian to sevastopol does not correspond to reality. dmytro pletenchuk, the spokesman of the naval forces of the ukrainian armed forces, announced this on facebook. earlier , the ukrainian media, with reference to monitoring channels and osint analysts, reported that it was from novorossiysk. the black sea fleet of the russian federation could redeploy a large amphibious ship of the ivan gren class. from the position of the naval forces, i can note that this information does not correspond to reality. the ship of this project, specifically pyotr morgunov, is in another part of the black sea of the sea, which, however, does not mean that their plans can change. as of now , they understand that it is dangerous for them to be in the bays of sevastopol, feodosia or kerch. krymskyi telegram channel published a photo of the sevastopol bay from

the sentinel 2 satellite from january 6, suggesting that the image shows a large ivan gren class landing ship that could be redeployed from novorossiysk to sevastopol. at the same time , usind analyst mt anderson published a photo of the sevastopol bay on his twitter page and indicated in the post that the image there is no ivan gren class ship. a similar ship of this project, pier morgunov, was sent to the black sea. in january of the 22nd year to participate in naval exercises before the start of a full-scale russian invasion of ukraine. however, he mostly stood in novorossiysk bay. a ship of this class can be armed with two russian k-29 helicopters, a reconnaissance uav, an orlan , and probably with rka panzer. i will add that the last case of damage to the large amphibious ship novocherkassk occurred on december 26 in the port of occupied feodosia in crimea, according to which the armed forces hit, it's bad. the ministry of defense of russia also confirmed, the armed forces say that the ship was destroyed.

we will talk about the situation in the black sea, also in crimea, near the coast of crimea. dmytro plytenchuk, spokesman for the navy of the armed forces of ukraine, captain of the third rank, joined our broadcast. i congratulate you. i congratulate the studio, i congratulate the audience. dmitry, thank you for joining, you have already stated publicly that now the russian... military understands that the presence of their ships in the ports of occupied crimea is a dangerous phenomenon for them, so can you say what choice do they have now where they keep their ships? well, in fact, it seems that the choice is large, but not everything is as they would like and as they planned, and to be even more precise, it seems that they did not plan such a number of ships that will have to be ... directly off the coast of the so-called russian federation, near the officially recognized shores, so

first of all they relocated to novorossian combat units, because there is also a prepared naval base there, but still there was not enough mooring front, and there are also no logistics tools, which are necessary to ensure the uninterrupted operation of the nasiyiv wing. rockets and besides, of course, they periodically have to redeploy ships. they cannot keep them somewhere in one location, because then, accordingly, they understand that they can become a target and redeploy them accordingly between tuabse, for example, sochi, and that is why the option of redeployment to abkhazia is also considered for the purpose of preservation units, because in sevastopol and in other bays, in crimea,

accordingly, the quay front was trivially more, and now they are facts... they don't want to take risks, and because of that they have problems with parking, if we talk about such data, which you had to comment on in order to put a certain point on this issue, so that the crimean wind telegram channel, he saw in those pictures, this ship of the ivan gren class, you refuted it, why did it seem so, or is it possible that it is different, let's say, just different dates? of these pictures and the relocation happened there over a period of time, or maybe, how can you explain it? well at the time it was discussed, as to his location, he wasn't there, and it 's not related there to old footage or other moments, it was, it was an assumption, let's start with this, on the part of the person who submitted these materials, and therefore it was

all possible, and as far as i am concerned... the first sources did not say this in an affirmative form, in general, at first , the information passed on the network on the network that it was directly ivan geren, but exactly this vdc was not in the black sea waters at all. margunov of this project 1171 is one such in the black sea there is, the second one was not, and accordingly it is far away, it is protected as well as everyone else. those missiles, as we can see, keep it away, because you can say that it is fresh compared to the other 775 project, which is the most widespread actually in the navy of the so -called russian federation, er, it is at least 30-40 years old, because they were manufactured back in soviet times in poland, by the way,

if we talk about what changes were made in the navy after the destruction of novocherkassk. maybe air defense has been strengthened in crimea, maybe you know about there are some internal concerns , well, you know, they had a commission from moscow there before that, which was checking why such events were happening, but this was before the defeat of novocherkassk, in general, given that they are in the black sea got started there were, for a second, 13 units of these vdc units, this is already such a large group, but as of now, only six remain in the formation, and the enemy draws appropriate conclusions, perfectly understands the danger, and therefore tries to concentrate. yes, of course, some personnel decisions can be made there

decisions, appropriate and disciplinary, so they try to intensify measures as much as possible. of security, even one of the ships of the small missile project of karakurt, namely the cyclone , is currently used as an air defense cover ship, that is , imagine, this is actually, let's say, a freelance performance of duties, because in principle it is intended, its air defense is intended for to directly defend the ship itself, and it is used as a cover, well, that is , they already use it, you can say not even regular weapons. i will also refer to the information of the crimean wind telegram channel, they have published information there that the anti-sabotage boat grachonok is currently on duty at the entrance to the sevastopol bay, what this could mean and what function this grachonok performs, is it there now to prevent sabotage? the same function as

the combat dolphins perform, so of course they use all the regular available means for... for example, two units in the sea, they also perform the task of guarding points basing, there are a number of protocol measures that must be carried out in order to guarantee, well, as much as possible, of course, some security of the basing points, and also one of these boats goes on duty, it has the appropriate, must be appropriate equipment, the appropriate team, which must monitor the surface and underwater situation and take appropriate... measures for protection and defense, also some unit is currently guarding the so-called crimean bridge, so these are all measures that are regular, actually. i want to ask you about demining the black sea, bulgaria, romania and turkey have invited other countries to join such an initiative and plan to create a joint fleet that will deal with

mine clearance in parts of the black sea near these countries, and actually, well, it is obvious that these mines fall there because of russia 's full-scale invasion of ukraine, in general, what can such work look like, when it can start, what resources are needed for this, are they necessary, are they available in these countries? well, in fact, it should be understood that these are nato countries, they have the appropriate resource , mine countermeasures, they take place all the time, and apparently, they are simply trying to strengthen them, because the mine of danger, unfortunately, is present, and unfortunately, these mines are also carried into the territorial waters of nato member countries, romania, bulgaria, the republic of turkey and even in the bosphorus bore, in addition, there is an open sea, directly in the water area of ​​the black sea, which is also divided into the exclusive economic sea zones of these countries, accordingly, they are forced to carry out this work,

because it is impossible to ignore such a danger, it will not go anywhere by itself, and of course, depending on the current, and the current is just going in their direction, this threat can periodically remind itself, unfortunately, there were relevant cases. er, but without loss of life, and therefore these countries take all appropriate measures, and there is nothing surprising in this in fact. but is this an initiative of nato countries, but not of the alliance itself? i am not ready to comment on this specifically within the framework of international politics, but directly in the waters of the black sea, as you can see, are involved precisely member countries, members of nato. i will tell you more, once there were appropriate ones. security organizations, even with the participation of russia, there was the same blacksiphor, and all these countries, before that, before the full scale,

in general, before russia's attack on ukraine , agreed on joint security in the black sea, and of course, the same russian federation, the so-called , which was part of these organizations accordingly, it is not that the agreements were not followed, on the contrary, they were violated, that is why in... in the black sea and before that there were at least two such structures, but as you can see, now the countries are forced to do all this in a new format, because the way it looked in theory, how it was supposed to work and how it works in practice is a little different, and these are such new formats of cooperation, they may then be useful in the context of cleaning the ukrainian coasts near the black sea from this naming. why not, given that after all, if you look at the map, we see the high seas, that's anything more than 12 nautical miles, and

legally in terms of international law, maritime law, nothing prevents these countries from working in the same way in this equatorial region, i am not saying that it will be, i am not saying that it is planned, i do not know this, but from the point of view of the un convention (law, for example, it is not is absolutely prohibited, if we talk about the resource that needs to be used for this in the future, what is it about, are there any calculations already? well again, i can't speak for other countries, i can say that we are planning our operation, we rely on our forces, appropriate, but in such operations and in such forces there is much, too much force of means does not happen, because the sea is... a huge territory, besides, one should not forget that if on sukhadol it is just a field in a two -dimensional plane, then in the sea it is three-dimensional,

and accordingly there is depth, and therefore the volume of work is much greater than on land, and it is much more difficult to search, because in addition to this , the elements, the sea, are also added, and accordingly, again, no matter how many of these measures and these organizations there are, we will not be . nothing. i thank you for joining our morning stream dmytro platenchuk, spokesman of the navy of the armed forces of ukraine, captain of the third rank, was a guest of svoboda ranok. next, let's talk about western support for ukraine. german chancellor olaf scholz called on other eu countries to provide greater military support to ukraine this year, which is fighting full-scale russian aggression. he said this after meeting with the new prime minister of luxembourg. a german publication writes about it. here, scholz says that he is convinced that the majority of the european union member states supply weapons to ukraine planned until now, i quote: in any case, too small. according to him

, until the next one. meeting of the european council, which will be held on february 1, it is necessary to have an accurate idea of ​​what contribution european partners will make to support ukraine this year. scholz said that germany is the largest donor of aid to ukraine after the usa, but at the end of last year, berlin agreed to allocate 8 billion euros for military aid to ukraine this year. in any format of communication with western allies, ukraine is not pushed to start negotiations with russia and with... freezing the war, such a statement was made by elpey, minister of foreign affairs of ukraine, lpis, minister of foreign affairs of ukraine dmytro kuleba, he answered the questions of journalists, and whether there were proposals from allies to freeze this war. the allies do not ask us to start negotiations with russia to freeze the war, neither when we meet with delegations nor in closed meetings in a narrow format, this is not something that anyone can dare to bring up for discussion,

the rest is just noise. coleba reminded that in between 2014 and 2022, official kyiv held almost 200 rounds of negotiations with moscow, in addition to which 20 ceasefire agreements were announced, and quote, the negotiations ended with a full-scale invasion by putin. we will talk about this topic of possible negotiations and about the military capabilities of the west to support ukraine. andrii kramerov, military expert, officer for. of the armed forces of ukraine joined our broadcast, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, what are your impressions based on the open sources that are available, with what reserve of forces and resources ukraine entered this year? in fact, we entered the year, let's say, more with challenges than with certain prospects, because first of all, the european military-industrial complex is,

unfortunately, completely on its own. not able to provide us, even, well, with his there, let's say, very high, high rates of work, not able to fully provide us, with all the means that we need to maintain, the pace of the war with russia, at that time, when russia is very widely deploying its military-industrial complex, when it is trying its best in cooperation with north korea and iran to expand the possibility , as i understand it, of the production of just about everything there, starting with small arms and ending with various types of missiles, kamikaze drones, taking into account the fact that there are certain political processes, in particular in the united states of america, as a result of which we, well, faced with with such a setback, of course, that we understand that we also need to be actively involved in development.

of our domestic military-industrial complex, here i really don't like it when our politicians start comparing 22-23 year, telling there the multiple times by which we increased the production of this or that nomenclature of weapons, because it is completely irrelevant, and since the 22nd year was the year when we needed to preserve our military industry, and only in the 23rd did we start to place something there, to reveal. more precisely , to place and deploy new production, and this became the result, and to compare, well, it is absolutely, you know, when at the beginning of the 22nd year, i remember, and well, it was only a task there, not even the equipment, but just though b to keep specialists and keep a certain scientific and technical base so that later in the future there would be an opportunity to start producing a certain nomenclature of weapons again and

compare with what we there... started doing on the 23rd, well, there is not, let's say, in relation to the words of the chancellor ulava scholtz, well, in general , i would like to say that almost half of the military aid that comes from the european union comes from germany, and the germans have also begun to actively deploy their military equipment, and of course i want other european countries to follow their example also joined, and it is nice that germany. to which in the 22nd year we had a lot of, let's say, questions, today in the european union is the leader in aid to ukraine, namely military aid. and by the way, here i will mention zaluzhnyi, who said that he was satisfied in principle with the pace of deliveries and what happened last year. here , the telegraph newspaper wrote that russian troops are allegedly planning a new large-scale offensive on kharkiv region on january 15. if we talk about russia's plans this winter, because again,

estimates. different, someone says what is there for that means, someone sees.
