well, you know, unfortunately, i have a very bad opinion about this situation, i am 99% convinced that someone at the highest levels of power is deliberately torpedoing the mobilization of the armed forces of ukraine. first of all, it is created by other people's hands through all kinds of botofers and everything else, that, let's say, joining the armed forces of ukraine is a tragedy. that it is some other army defending ukraine, and it is separate from the state and society. then a solid game of imitation begins, because if the government, the supreme commander-in-chief, the parliament had a really strong desire to improve the current existing mobilization rules through a new law, it could be done quickly within a few days at most. and we see that this process is simply thrown out of the blue. correct

coverage by the media, society stirs up people, and in the end, instead of a quick solution, we have the same half-measures as it was with the moscow priests, regarding their expulsion from ukraine and, unfortunately, with many other processes that are happening in the state in the wrong way direction, so i really hope that the government officials and the bank will come to their senses and stop these games with war and army, will calmly explain to people that... mobilization is necessary, but it does not affect everyone, it affects only a few percent of the male population of ukraine, who are currently needed to protect our statehood and each of us, and after that calmly and professionally, without wild scenes in shopping centers, at bus stops and other public places, call those who are in the army to the army. a full stop is needed, then

the question of their training, their equipping with modern ukrainian weapons, manufactured by in press releases and speeches of officials, and what is at the front, and the task of defeating the enemy. in fact, everything is very simple if there is a desire, and i do not see this desire. thank you so much for joining, thank you for your comments. volodymyr mylyan was with us, ex-minister of infrastructure of ukraine and a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine. well, now let's talk in more detail about the situation at the front , which actually needs trained and professional people in order to really win this victory on the battlefield. serhiy mzgurtsem, the program, these are our current military results week congratulations. vasiyl, i congratulate our viewers, today we will really talk about what is happening on the front line, about the historic signing of an agreement with great britain, because what happened today in kyiv is a really important stage. expanding cooperation with

the g7 countries, and actually about the missile attack by the united states and britain on yemen, on the houthis, who are carrying out terrorist activities in the black sea. more on that in a moment. already yesterday, various sources gave serhiy such cautious forecasts, anxiety that the enemy can cause massive. a missile attack on the territory of our state, and here i was lying, waiting for information to appear about mature fighter bombers, but then information appeared that other fighter jets had taken off in another part of the world, somewhere on the ravi peninsula, and the bombing had begun ee country of yemen, certain settlements of this country and the ports that are there, but somehow this whole story happened so suddenly, in fact, what caused it, first of all, how can you evaluate? the consequences

of this, as this operation was called, vigilance of prosperity, in my opinion, if it was not completely unexpected, because in fact the yemeni courts were warned that measures would be taken that would actually make impossible the terrorist acts carried out by the khusts in the black sea, when they tried to prevent civil there to military shipping. or rather, they carried out strikes on warships there with the use of their ballistic missiles, they carried out, tried to carry out strikes on israel, and in fact this one was carried out with on the part of the united states and britain, it actually became, we hope, a point that can significantly weaken the capabilities of the houthis, because a strike was indeed carried out using cruise missiles, tomahawk missiles were used for this,

19 aircraft and british and american aircraft were used there submarines, aircraft carriers were used, that is, in general, this is really such a powerful blow to... on this group, but here is the other side of the coin, it shows that really britain, the united states have a powerful potential for destruction of the enemy, but on the other hand , the enemy has long-range drones, there are ballistic missiles that have a range of more than 200 km, which threaten israel there, and american ships at sea, that is, in fact, this pool. states in the axis of evil there , iran, which actually ensures the supply of certain types of weapons to the khusids, shows that in fact this potential of these enemy countries, well, relatively speaking, must be destroyed, what is actually happening, and on

the other hand, when we recall about ukraine and we say where are our ballistic missiles, where are ours there are destruction systems, where are our long-range drones, then there is such a certain dissonance, because , relatively speaking, there... but the terrorist group has such a significant list of weapons, and we have not created such systems during this time, that in fact there is another an impetus to really expand real cooperation with our western partners and create real opportunities to repulse russian forces there. well, it is very revealing, in general, for such countries, in particular, as north korea, which also has access to the sea and can also fit there an aircraft carrier group with f-22 fighters or what were there in well, i read about the f-22. there and f18s , which actually took off from aircraft carriers and carried out missiles, strikes with guided missiles, there with these basic tamahawks, which have a significant range there from 2 to 300 km, and this component in the armament of the american army now remains the most effective

force, in order, relatively speaking, to deprive any opponent of the opportunity to resist, well, indeed, the lion cannot sleep for a long time in the desert, because he is simply spoiled by hygiene. ago of course, sometimes it is necessary to wake up and let out a lion's roar on the whole savannah so that everyone runs away, well, this is actually what we demonstrated yesterday , both the united states of america and its partners from great britain, we will monitor the consequences of this story, to be honest, there was a feeling that now a new war would start on the arabian peninsula, well, there was also the problem that the houthis were blocking the exit from the arabian sea to the red sea, through the gulf of aden, and here, of course, also in economic matters they climbed, well... 15% of the trade between europe and asia actually takes place in that bay, it is an extremely important transport hub, the truth is that neither the americans nor the british will allow this there, so that they have the opportunity to bite there to block these transportations, and on the other hand

, against the background of this, we would like, let's say, such more active help from our partners to strengthen our defense and defense capabilities, and today's visit of the prime minister is just that. of the british minister rishasunak is just, well, in my opinion, it is an absolutely positive step, that's why that, in fact, the first agreement was signed there with the g7 countries, which defines security guarantees, although we are now cautiously accepting the word guarantee there after the budapest memorandum, but the agreement is actually designed for 10 years, it provides for nine sections on various different areas of cooperation, provides for funding for... it is prescribed for each year and in fact it even provides for the actions that britain will take there in the event of an attack by the russian federation there, although in fact even now russian aggression is already underway, and then there is the question of what exactly is covered in these guarantees,

well, it is assumed, in particular, consultations within 24 hours, certain countries that have signed this agreement should gather there and make a decision regarding. the russians of ukraine in all fields with the supply of weapons and so on, but i think that the very essence of this agreement is already important in that it already provides directions for cooperation, provides for the allocation of funds, and also provides an opportunity to use the potential of great britain to strengthen our defense and industrial complex and obtaining those samples of weapons that we really need are needed well, let's now talk about missile strikes that took place on the territory of ukraine and for what? the enemy can count on its stockpiles now, so the latest missile strike, 14, 24 cruise missiles, 27 ballistic missiles, including those manufactured by china, the democratic people's republic of korea, north korea, indicates that iran is preparing to provide its ballistic missiles, as to protect yourself,

or perhaps, how to do it so that these ballistic missiles do not reach somewhere, do not reach, or do not fly, really on january 8 the russian federation carried out another missile attack on... in ukraine, the difference between this attack and the previous mass attacks was that a significant number of ballistic missiles were used, there were 25 ballistic missiles of various types. starting with daggers, ending with s-300, s-400 missiles, and with these missiles, the russians hit those cities and objects where there are no powerful complexes, such as patriot and sumpty, which can repel these ballistic attacks of the enemy, and in fact all 24 missiles were, 25 ballistic missiles were not shot down in principle, although some of them did not reach at all. because they fell there in different cities, in particular, there are fragments of the x-32 missile, which is now collected and

studied by our specialists, fell in a clean field, by the way, this same x-32 was also manufactured in the fourth quarter of last year. well, when we talk about the rest of the missiles that were used there, cruise missiles, indeed , they were all shot down, but another feature of the attacks not so much on january 8, but as the second date, is that indeed ... but debris was found missiles, which are actually identified as missiles from north korea, most likely, this is the kane-23 missile, which is a copy of the russian iskandyr, but has a slightly longer range of up to 600 km, and just now the representatives of our prosecutor's office spoke about the fact that there is indeed confirmation that this is... a north korean missile, in fact we can talk about the fact that now a military-industrial complex is already forming,

where, speaking of language, there are north korea, russia, iran and china, which himself involved in the supply of certain components, this is the axis of evil is now beginning to form such new serious challenges, because the appearance of ballistic missiles from north korea, then the risk of the appearance of iranian missiles indicates that the strengthening of the air defense system is currently on the agenda for... ukraine, we have already talked about this more than once , we saw a meeting of the nato council, with the participation of the minister of foreign affairs of ukraine, where it was said that there will be quick steps to strengthen our air defense, i think that this topic was also heard in the conversation with the prime minister of great britain, but now we are mainly focused only on the fact that we get more patriot air defense systems, if possible, but... there are other proposals, in particular, the possibility of receiving from the united

states these ballistic missile defense systems, in particular thaad or igzhi systems, that is, in fact, we have to to expand the list of models that are capable of fighting the enemy's ballistic missiles at a much longer range than what the patriot can do, i think that this topic will be raised from the ukrainian side, we understand that from the side of our partners there is the understanding of the issue... is that these complexes are found, they are in principle, and financial conditions are created so that ukraine can purchase such complexes or take them at a certain time for use in the form of leases or other solutions. well, this is not a positive moment, but such a logical consequence of two years of war, that in the end, a hot war in ukraine, that in the end two alliances were formed, so there is an army of evil, russia, iran, north korea, i don't know where to put china here. well, in any case , yes, no, no, no, no, no, no, from our side

now there is ukraine and the western coalition , which can obviously be called the ramsteit coalition , which includes 50 countries, 50 countries, well, that's it, and here we want a final victory, of course, but on the other hand, a victory in ukraine or forcing the enemy to retreat from our territory is possible, this can also be considered a victory if the enemy retreats and is unable or does not have the motivation to continue this war , well, obviously, a cold war will begin, a second cold war, which has every chance of not turning into a hot one. well, actually, i am i think that we still have a hot war going on, and it really has risks of escalation, because if we take into account the statements of sweden there, which says that we understand the challenges, that there could be a war and that it is preparing for war with the russian federation, we are talking about the transformation in nato countries, we are talking about the statements of the minister of defense of germany pistorius, who also... calls for more active rearming of their army there, but all this really creates further risks, because now

we see that this situation is connected with actions of the russian federation, it can theoretically go beyond the borders of ukraine, and in particular the same times magazine, when it described the risks of this year, it also talked about the possibility of expansion and destabilization of such zones around the world, and right now the situation is connected with... the yeoman is also one of the elements of this destabilization, how will it affect our interests? well, in any case, we understand that it is important that attention. states was not defocused, but given the political statements from the united states, after all, there is an expectation of providing aid to namotsakh in a package of 61 billion us dollars, and in fact the actions of other partners, in particular great britain, which we talked about earlier, where the package of military aid will amount to 3.2 billion dollars for two years,

for 24- and, on the 25th, that is, in fact, it is more than britain allocated in... in 22 and 23, so in any case there is a clear understanding that powerful countries still remain on our side, it just creates the preconditions for the preparation of our active defensive actions, well primarily and in the perspective of offensive combat operations. well, indeed, putin's activity at the front, these three months or how long he was there, this offensive or counteroffensive, of course, the main goal was to destabilize the situation in ukraine, to shake the population from such an informational and psychological operation , to cause panic, dissatisfaction, unrest. to keep society together, he managed to do it somewhere, but in principle we see that the situation will stabilize with this, well, plus to protect ourselves from the supply of weapons to ukraine, it will, we believe, and help to ukraine, well, i think that if it became known now that, conditionally speaking, trump and , for example, well, i understand that in russia they are betting on him, i am not saying that trump is pro-russian, that is what russia has for him make a bet, i remember that the late zherinovsky was treating everyone there in his mind

with champagne solvier when trump won the previous elections, but if, say, putin now ... saw that his bets on certain politicians were losing , maybe he would have no motivation to continue the war at all, well, except for some of his deviants ideas, but for now it is as it is, and here it is important to hold on, well, it is important to hold on where our soldiers are now holding on to their native ukrainian land, trying to stop the enemy's advance, somewhere possible and move forward. avdiyivka, three months have passed since the active start of the russian offensive, what conclusions can be drawn, or is it still too early to draw conclusions? well, in fact , you can not only talk about weights here. about avdiivka, because in fact, as it was in january and may of last year there, before the capture of bakhmut there or the ruins of bakhmut, it was offensive actions of the enemy, then somewhere from june, july, august, september, these are offensive actions from the ukrainian side, when the most active actions were taking place

in the south, at that time the enemy was trying to shake the situation in some way there in... in the kupyansk zone there in leman, where they tried russian troops to act, and starting somewhere on october 9, when the attacks on avdiivka began, this was the second, in fact, this was the third such offensive of the russian army on the entire line of contact, and in these three months, starting on october 9, if we will look carefully at the map there, where the line passes hostilities, then in fact there were no significant changes... we can state that there, well, the enemy came out on what was left of the wreckage of maryanka, and when we talk about avdiivka, we see that our brigades actually hold this settlement both from the north and the south, the enemy is unable

to get close to the mite that he roared about there in order to make it impossible to supply our garrison, avdiivka ot... will be obtained, about 13 00 enemies, about 400 samples of armored vehicles have been destroyed there, and we do not see that, in fact, the enemy is particularly optimistic there, the further advance on vdeivka is unrealistic, as well, when we talk about kupyansk, where another attack began there in october, so that all the activity is taking place around several settlements near the same sinkivka, where the enemy... comes to this already destroyed settlement, its units are mechanized and manpower is destroyed, they retreat and again try to raise reserves, now it is hardly possible to say that a completely enemy offensive stopped, because in fact we are only at such a certain stage, where the enemy,

although there is less intensity of hostilities there, but now the enemy's forces are again accumulating in certain directions and... not the components related to kupyansk, avdiivka , bakhmut, maryanka, we can expect that after a certain time the enemy will also, well , start active hostilities again, here it is important that the enemy, well, mobilization in ukraine, how many people are being recruited, trained and sent to the fronts , it's a secret, yes, so i'm not talking about it i know and i will not say, but it became known that up to 10,000 were formed before enemy activities in the mariupol area. newly arrived, they are sent to the fronts, at the same time new groups are formed, how effective are these groups, if we are talking about this southeast donetsk region, southeast ukraine, well, donetsk region. yes, well, in fact , here, if we are talking about the number of enemy forces, yesterday there was a statement by the deputy head of the main intelligence department

, vadym skybitskyi, who said that 462,000 were received on the territory of ukraine occupiers who are there in the temporarily occupied territories, and by the way, this is slightly more than it was in december, when it was said about 430 thousand, that is... this hidden mobilization, as skibitsky said, allows the enemy, well, actually to maintain the intensity of combat actions that are now taking place on the front line, and the main forces are now concentrated precisely in the kupyansk-lemank zone, about 100,000 there, the bakhmut zone 8,000, avdiivka - 40,00 and further, relatively speaking, when we are there... we are moving south , then there is basically the same from to 200,000 personnel are spread over different areas, the quality of the personnel

is now, in principle, higher than after the main blows were delivered to the russian army, but we understand that now, relatively speaking, due to the number of the enemy will try and continue to carry out this pressure tactic along the entire front line, and the most important thing now... so that we have the appropriate number of means of artillery impact, which will allow, in my opinion, in principle, to minimize this temporary numerical advantage of the enemy. we literally have two minutes, me i will also ask about the krynks, i spoke with the representative of the kherson regional military administration today, he says that the marines really succeed, well, there are such units there, but we are talking about the marines, first of all to hold the bridgehead, even expand it somewhat and actively destroy enemy equipment , well, we were talking about 90%. such complex

directions, because now, relatively speaking, there are marines, border guards, special operations forces, according to various estimates there are from 300 to 600 of our military, who are primarily taking cover our tyria from the right bank of the dnieper, it is covered by the active work of our fpv drones, the means of rebs, and in fact the enemy uses the assault actions of his russian paratroopers there to knock out our marines, it does not succeed, and when any enemy equipment is used, it really the artillery is destroyed in the airspace, if you see the extreme pictures that are around the same mines, then... are they almost like the graveyards of russian military equipment, so in any case this deputy commander even died there of the russian landing forces, who are responsible

for the direction of armored vehicles, just the colonel, who is actually a friend of this teplinsky, who himself went there to retrieve the btr 82, which was destroyed by the ukrainians , it seems, or the artillery or the tank and already died there, so relatively speaking, the cover these of our... e marines is happening quite effectively, but it must be understood that what we do next with this mission of our military on this part of the front, we must understand that in any case on the first the plan should have military expediency, and not some political decisions that can, at times, overly dominate military logic. thanks to serhiy, serhiy zgorets, director of the defense express agency, and these were the military results. of the week, yes, congratulations vasyl, and thanks to our viewers, so we hope that next week there will be more good news about the actions of our units on

the front line and more destroyed enemies. yes, thank you very much sergey, and now i have a plot for your attention, which actually continues, continues military themes, development that requires the destruction of the enemy, ukrainian kamikaze drones are produced by volunteers from lviv, drones are made depending on the requests and needs of our military, how are such self-made iron birds created, our correspondents will tell you. that's how the fpv drone from the april charity fund works for enemy purposes, volunteers started making shock birds in september 2023. we developed the prototype ourselves - says yuriy tenasiychuk, the initiator of the production. we, the basic... versions of the drones bought, we, we bought them disassembled simply to the cog, we built an internal architecture for ourselves, which is called knowledge, how everything interacts from... what

materials it is made of. kamikaze volunteer drones are equipped with powerful motors, a stable frame and quality controllers for control. therefore, home-made devices serve our military better than expensive factory-made drones, - explains yurii tenasiychuk. that is, we have drones with a size of 8, 9, 10 inches under normal conditions, our drones will fly at least 10 km, they will take, on average, the working weight of 1,2,5 it can to be three, we also did tests for 5 kg. the cost of a home-made fpv drone is from $500 to $700. ukrainians, entrepreneurs and territorial communities will willingly donate funds. complete parts, volunteers buy abroad, and some spare parts are printed in the workshop on 3d printers. the maximum that we can do ourselves, we try to do ourselves, that is, we have cutting frames from carbon, creating

separate ones. elements are printed on 3d printers, these are various tails, racks, fastening elements, engineer andriy assembles the drone in less than two hours, ready birds are always tested by volunteers. once a week, volunteers of the april charitable foundation teach those who want to assemble drones. first of all, there is a need to protect the country, the more... people who can do it, the more people we make, the more maneuverable we are, and it is very important that in case of mobilization the workshop or production does not stop, that is why many of our drones are made by girls. since november 2023 , benefactors have made more than a hundred drones, they say that thereby saving the ministry of defense at least 2 million hryvnias the kmikat drones will inflict losses on the enemy

along the entire line. front in kherson, zaporizhzhya, bakhmut, lumansk and other directions, if you want to increase the number of good russians and destroyed enemy equipment, join the collection for parts, ukrainian birds. you can now see the details on the screen. kateryna oliynyk, oleg palyamar , espresso tv channel. good evening, we are from ukraine. and let's continue the big one. the second hour is ahead, a lot of interesting things await you. economic results of the week with oleksandr mortified also yuriy fizer will tell in more detail what was happening there on the arabian peninsula in the yemen region, the weather from natalka didenko, what it will be like this weekend, a lot of interesting, a lot of important things, but we will start with the news, i will briefly tell you about the most important things. a 28-year-old man died as a result of an air strike on avdiivka. the russians dropped a guided aerial bomb on the city, targeting a residential building, said the head of the donetsk regional military administration,

vadym filashkin. also enemies. from the hail shelled new york, damaged a private house and three high-rise buildings. and the russians killed two people in kherson, terrorists hit the city with artillery. a woman who was on the street died, and a charred body was found in the mutilated car. the person's identity is being established, the head of the region oleksandr prokudin said. as a result of the shelling, fires started and were quickly extinguished.

remains under the ruins of their own homes, those who died due to russians undermining the kakhovka hydroelectric plant, still lie under the rubble of buildings in the temporarily occupied bare piers on the left bank of the kherson region. the russians do not eliminate the consequences and do not retrieve the bodies - said the head of the local military administration, svitlana linnyk. people are considered missing, their relatives are looking for them, according to official data, ten people are known, but the real number of victims of the ukrainian authorities may be much higher. let me remind you that last year on june 6, the russians blew up the dam of the kakhovka hydroelectric power station. deported children. the security service of ukraine detained a collaborator from kherson, who served the russians during the occupation of the city. the woman was the deputy head of the kherson emergency medical center and gave the russians a fleet of ambulances.

the invaders used them to take away ukrainian children.
