advice and true friends. together we support each other, share useful information and learn new things, together we grow. join us, become part of our enable me ukraine family. with the support of the national assembly of persons with disabilities of ukraine, enable me ukraine. greetings to all viewers of espresso. i am anna yavomelnyk and this is news. they broke out of the occupation, and managed to return one more family to the territory controlled by ukraine. the guardian grandmother and her 16-year-old granddaughter could not leave, they were afraid to pass the russian bloc. - said the head of the kherson region

, oleksandr prokudin , ukrainian services worked with them for a long time, and finally the security family. the missile threat level remains high. the russian fleet will keep two surface missile carriers on combat duty in the black sea. the total volley of calibers can reach 16 missiles. i would like to note that in the morning there were 14 enemy ships at sea, including four missile carriers. the russians shelled kherson from the temporarily occupied left bank. a 61-year-old woman was injured in the shipping district of the city woman. she is in hospital in a moderate condition. at night , the garage premises caught fire from the hit of the ammunition. rescuers immediately arrived at the scene, but the russians opened fire on them. inform in the state emergency service. firefighters had to return several times to extinguish the fire. two enemy

kamikaze drones were shot down today in the sky over zhytomyr oblast, the head of the regional military administration vitaliy bunechko said. at night, the wreckage of the drone fell on the territory of one of the settlements in the region, the victim there are no victims. ukraine has become a testing ground for western weapons. russians also do not neglect to check. their allegedly super-powerful developments during attacks on our peaceful cities. on february 7, fragments of an unknown missile were found in kyiv, according to the research of monitoring groups, ukrainian forces apparently managed to shoot down the enemy's newest hypersonic cruise missile zircon. so what is this, the newest weapon of the russians or another scarecrow? details in the plot. such missiles have never been seen in the world, this is how dictator vladimir putin describes russian developments. one of the last -

zircon rocket. the ministry of war of the russian federation calls it a promising hypersonic anti-ship missile. it is supposedly twice as fast as a kenzhal. zircons can strike from naval ships at other ships or at coastal targets. in russia, they began to be developed after 2011. demonstration tests of zircons were conducted there in 2021, shortly before the full-scale invasion of ukraine. among the carriers of this missile, only the frigate admiral gorshkov and the nuclear submarine severodvinsk are known. ukrainian specialists with a large are wary of the superpowers of zircons claimed by the russians. it was really probably first used for strikes against ukraine, it doesn't have the performance they declare, because it goes astray, and now we simply can't even determine whether this missile is in service with the russian federation at all, because real...

there is no evidence that it has passed the entire cycle of tests so far, so in any case the enemy is trying to use, apparently, newer developments, but they are breaking the scope of our anti-aircraft defense but the main pride of the russian defense industry, according to the occupiers, is the invulnerable and super-accurate kinzhal hypersonic missile. the ministry of the russian federation adopted it in service in 2018. the kenjal missile is launched from a mig-31k fighter jet. after the note. the missile rises to a height of about 20 km, and then falls on the target like a conventional ballistic missile, has its own self-guidance system and high accuracy of damage, it can also maneuver in flight, so it is difficult to intercept it for anti-aircraft and anti-missile defense. the russian defense industry now has a rate of production of these missiles in the range of 10 missiles per month, this was said by our military intelligence, and the previous stock of these... missiles

was estimated at 40 samples, that is, we can talk about something in the range of 50-70 missiles of this type that russia can store at its bases. by. the kremlin's claims about the power of the dagger are traditionally somewhat exaggerated. the russians began to use daggers en masse after the western partners handed over the first patriot complex to ukraine. unexpectedly, as for it became news to both russians and americans that the patriot had successfully knocked down a russian dagger. daggers, by the way, are not so accurate lately, we see them flying into the milk, as they say, and therefore, into the milk , it means that it can fly anywhere if they hit something... it does not mean that it did not get into the neighboring house, this should be remembered, the russians are actively threatening with their other developments, vladimir putin officially

announced the creation of another russian miracle weapon in 2018, it is about ballistic the sermet missile and the burivesnik cruise missile. the zermatt is an intercontinental ballistic missile capable of carrying nuclear warheads. and hypersonic units, its declared characteristics are flight range and the ability to overcome american anti-missile defenses, it is supposedly capable of destroying a country the size of france, however, prototypes of this missile usually failed tests. the only full-fledged launch from the weapon took place on april 20, 2022 from the plesetsk airfield, at the same time, in order to adopt a missile of this class into service, it is usually necessary to carry out a series of at least out of ten... successful launches, however , in october 2023, putin already boasted that the work on the sarmatian was actually completed, and all that remained was to finish some administrative and bureaucratic procedures, after which to proceed to mass production and putting it on combat duty.

this year's goal was to put this missile complex into service in muscovy. putin's statement about burivesnik's successful test was an even bigger surprise. this is velika's cruise missile. equipped with a small nuclear reactor, its flight is accompanied by emissions radiation, such an engine could allow the rocket to fly around the planet several times and bypass the air defense system. however, one of its tests in 2019 ended in a radioactive disaster with officially five deaths. so today, russia only has mock-ups of weapons of extremely high power, and the samples of zircon tinjal do not correspond to the capabilities that the kremlin claims. fresh forces entered the battle for the defense of avdiyivka. the situation there is tense, but under control. the russians seek to seize avdiivka at any cost and as soon as possible, novomykhaivka and the territories lost last summer. armored groups are increasingly

joining storm infantry groups, and ukrainian soldiers are steadfastly on the defensive. the aggressor is being destroyed and the occupiers are being taken prisoner, noted the commander of the operational-strategic group of tavriy troops. yesterday, the occupiers carried out 25 air strikes and two missile strikes, carried out 57 assaults and 663 artillery barrages. our military destroyed an important object of the russians, 458 soldiers and 25 units of enemy equipment. officially from gur. the russians use terminals at the front starink satellite communication. main department of intelligence of the ministry of defense. made public the interception of the conversation of the occupiers, the intelligence officers emphasized that the terminals were activated in the units of the 83rd separate amphibious assault brigade, which are waging an invasion war in the donetsk direction, near klishchiivka and andriivka. the scale of use of starlinks

is growing and is beginning to take on a systemic nature, ugur added. yes, yes, they did, they installed the application, explained to everyone. the company spacex, which provides work in the starling communication network, assured that it was not conduct no business with the russian government or its military and added that they are deactivating terminals that were obtained without the appropriate license. misuse, three men tried to transfer 22 kg of cannabis abroad with a drone. they were detained by law enforcement officers in volyn, the prosecutor general's office reported. border guards seized a drone and drugs worth almost uah 13 million, detained in custody. illegal

return. border guards detained a 30-year-old man who was walking to ukraine from... moldova, bypassing checkpoints pass the odessa resident explained his actions by the fact that he could no longer stay abroad and wanted to return home. for illegal crossing of the state border. a report on an administrative offense was drawn up against him. that's how things are at the moment. i'll see you at 3:00 p.m., the news team is working, we're monitoring what's happening in ukraine and the world, we'll tell you about the most important things in the next issue, then meet my colleagues, lesya vakulyuk and andriy saichuk.

dear friends, good day to everyone once again, who just joined us, glad to see you, who he has been watching us since the morning, i am also glad to see you, all of you, we have very important information, we want to remind you that our assembly is ongoing and... i have a little bit of betrayal and victory regarding the assembly, the betrayal is that i wanted this week we ended at the mark of 500,000 hryvnias, huh, but we currently have 456,416 hryvnias, which means that we are missing some 43,500 hryvnias, and i am not sure that for this ether we will collect these 43 00 with you, if you beat mine hope, well then, then i want to be wrong in these predictions of mine, and

i admit that i was wrong, the victory is that you and i, dear friends, if we collect at least 20 00 uah for this air of ours, and we will be on the air for 3 hours, and we have a very large list of interesting guests, then it will work out , that this week you and i collected 200 hryvnias, because we started this week with... a mark of 276 hryvnias, and now we have, let me remind you, 456, 416 hryvnias. we need to collect a whole million, now you can see on your screens all the necessary details by which you can transfer money, we are collecting for our military, which is currently on in the orichiv direction, it is 141 brigade , it needs high-quality equipment, it needs radios and batteries for them, starlinks, binoculars, rangefinders, scopes, det... detection of drones and a lot of other things, the collection is carried out by the charitable foundation of iryna koval,

together with the espresso tv channel, iryna koval , you know her, you see her on the screens of the tv channel, because she is our presenter, who volunteers in parallel and has been volunteering for more than a year, now pay attention to the qr codes that you saw and scan them, or follow that , that the matter is a private qr code, i i remind you that it must be scanned with a special scanner. which is in the privat-24 application, this is the only way you can scan it, and the one on the left is a monobank, you can scan it with the phone camera, and also keep an eye on it during our broadcast, because it will appear in the lower left corner, here is one qr code, and you can also follow it, here it is, you see, it's such a miracle, i just said, it appears immediately, you can also scan and transfer funds there, it will all go into one piggy bank, into one piggy bank, that is, for. .. of our military, and we will talk now with the military, actually a military expert, a colonel of the armed forces of ukraine, spokesman

of the general staff of the ukrainian armed forces in 2014-2017 , vladyslav seleznyov is already with us, mr. vladyslav, glad to see you, congratulations to you too, glory to ukraine, heroes, glory to heroes, mr. vladyslav, well, the main news of this week is the resignation of valery zaluzhnyi, the appointment of the new head of the syrskyi, and there are already deputies, there is already... the head and the head of the ground forces has already been appointed , let's talk about these people, for sure, so who am i, who are these people, you them you know better, tell us, our viewers , so that we understand whether it is betrayal, or victory, or everything is in order, well, there is definitely no betrayal here, each of the newly appointed officers has a lot of experience, including combat experience, so now they will master the position to enter. to keep abreast of things and accordingly manage subordinate units and connections in accordance with

the position held, of course, that there was a lot of informational white noise around these rotations, of course, that the name of general valery zaluzhny was first on the agenda, but we we have to understand that general syrskyi also has enormous combat experience and experience in the implementation of certain tasks, to what extent these decisions will be... justified and effective, i think that we will see already by the results of their activities, well, relatively speaking, by the first few weeks, it will be clear what has changed in the ukrainian army in connection with this. but we must understand that not even the rotation of senior military officials is the determining factor on the battlefield - it is resources. no matter how bright the military leader is at the helm our army, without resources, without artillery systems, without ammunition, it is very difficult to reach them. it is difficult to organize the conduct of effective defensive actions, it is difficult to effectively destroy the enemy's force, and therefore resources are

a determining factor that will influence the course of events on the battlefield, but rotations took place, that's right. the president of the supreme court or the armed forces to make these rotations, we will see, please tell me what are the necessary difficulties there, perhaps the decision to make a single team soon, of course, seriously hampers the issue of holding events related to mobilization, we see how ukrainian society does not accept these processes, well, it is banal that the residents of our country are afraid to go to the bottom of the ukrainian one. so, from the beginning, it is necessary to find out why our people are afraid to join the army, and then look for options to dispel this fear and find arguments so that as many as possible will join the ukrainian army. we must understand this. the war is on and the enemy has a very huge mission. for this year, the overall military budget

of the russian federation is about 120 billion dollars of course, part of this money will be directed to... the implementation of tasks within the framework of the so-called special military operation, which means that the war continues, and of course we will need resources on the field, not only weapons and military equipment, we need trained , professional, trained, motivated ukrainian soldiers to make this happen, of course, not only the representatives of the territorial recruitment and social support centers should work properly, but also for the justice of the councils, there in fact all the state is involved in these processes of mobilization, which must work effectively for us. training centers must work efficiently, our logisticians must properly provide our soldiers who are preparing for combat missions directly on the frontline, and of course we must work within the framework of the personnel policy, because it is often dense, i hear in in the army environment, there are complaints that

there are teams that are maximally effective, on the one hand, and, on the other hand, maximally protect life and health. this week also, mykhailo podolyak, an adviser to the president's office, said that an audit would have to be conducted for the new chief of the general staff among the armies, because they say only 300,000 are fighting, and... 700,000 are in the rear, how correct is the information mr. podolyak has, and is it correct? that mr. podolyak communicates this, talks about what the leader, the new leader, the new head of state should do, i did not see the first source, i do not know if it was about the chief of the general staff, or whether such a task was given to

samoholovka by president volodymyr zelensky , general sirskomu, i am ready to comment, because i... haven’t seen this statement from a long time ago, but in any case, an audit is very necessary, and by the way, it is worth noting here that general anatoly vladyslavovich bergelevich, he is an experienced officer who served in various positions for many years in the most complicated department of the ukrainian general staff of the main operational department of gou, and there the requirements for the officers who pass the service are very, very strict, in fact it is a kind of brain center of everything ukrainian. of the general staff, respectively, having such experience and background, anatoly aleksanovych will do everything in order to normalize the activities of the ukrainian general staff, they are not very encouraging, i will not go into detail, but there is something to worry about and something to worry about. therefore, the audit is actually very important, including not only due to the fact that a significant part of the ukrainian army generally saw the winoshe on

television, but also because it will be used more rationally and effectively. of ukrainian military personnel serving in headquarters of various levels, pay attention to such a task at one time, just the other day he became president volodymyr zelenskyi , regarding rationing and optimization of personnel in the headquarters, because it cannot be the case that we do not have officers on the battlefield, the situation is the opposite in the headquarters, and in any case, the question of changes is ripe, and maybe even overripe, because it can't be... yes, when on the background of such informational euphoria, we begin to turn a blind eye to those problems that have been accumulating for years, in particular in our defense department, our general staff. inadmissible and such an audit should actually be, the only thing i am afraid of i warn our military officials

, our military officials from, let's say, not a very rational approach, it can't be all and all and replacement of all and all, regardless of professional skills, regardless of how capable or that officer is unable to perform. functional all functional, as it will be, again, in connection with the fact that the very terms are determined by president zelensky within the framework of this transformation of the ukrainian army, i think that quite quickly we will see rapid changes, although, again, rapid changes to the internal kitchen of the ukrainian general staff, they may not be so much media, but it is important that we more efficiently and rationally use all available resources to maximally support our soldiers on the battlefield, this is obvious, and one of the more important decisions that was made last at times, this is the creation of a powerful line of engineering fortifications, here these works are now being continued in various areas of the front, in general, the lines of the same engineering

fortifications were created with a length of up to 100 km. of course, i am just as surprised by the decision the president regarding the dismissal of general niall from his post, because it was serhiy ivanovych who dealt with this issue, but apparently you and i do not know something, why exactly such a decision was made, it was in his place. so general yuliy sodar, we will see, in any case, the surname, everyone is known, known, everyone has combat experience, and what about the species, we will see. mr. vladyslav, one, one of the fears that many publicly and not publicly express, is that general syrsky in this situation may be politically more dependent on the office of the president there, which has, well, in spite of everything, even, well, who hardly has enough experience in principle. and understanding of some military things, from, although this does not mean that in a democratic state there should not be control of the civilian government, including the army,

even during war, but on the other hand , i have also heard more than once from various sources that in recent months valery zaluzhnyi, being the commander-in-chief, was no longer actually the commander-in-chief, since he did not have all the powers and actually executed many armies. there were direct instructions from the office the president, in fact, this is unacceptable, because there is a vertical of power, accordingly, the military should deal with military affairs, and our politicians with political affairs, and here your remark is absolutely correct, as far as the general's mole is concerned, he will fulfill purely and exclusively the political requirements of our, our office president, i think it is worth looking at this story through the lens of general stersky's predecessors, let's remember.

so flexible as not to take into account military rationality, of course, he is accountable, according to the functional as commander-in-chief, supreme commander-in-chief, but to assume that the situation on the battlefield will change in a matter of seconds because oleksandr stanislavovych will somehow communicate incorrectly with the office is probably not worth it. the key aspect that determines the situation on the battlefield is, after all, a resource. let's talk a little about the most difficult ones now. from the situation at the front , the situation near avdiivka looks quite critical, many assume that it will not be possible to hold it, and in this case the main question is to preserve

the garrison that remains there, or after all these are too pessimistic views, why, if we look with you at least at the map , it is clearly visible that the enemy is now trying to divide the avdiiv defense center into two parts: the northern one, respectively, where... why first of all create a buffer zone around donetsk i will push our defense forces further away from donetsk, friend avdiyivka , the city is quite a media-lit place, and therefore it will be , well, a wonderful wonderful award, a media award in particular for... for the patriots of the russian federation in the framework of preparations for the fifth election of president putin, although it is obvious that this is unlikely to be a determining factor

, because putin is not elected because he... bought an suv before its destruction, it is a general social contract and the russians are ready, ready for ukraine to suffer from the pressure of the enemy army, the russians are happy that russian bombs and rockets kill children, ukrainian women, elderly people, and here we must understand that there can be no illusion, but putin's army plans, which are being implemented, including with the support of russian ... society, they will continue to be implemented until before moment, until ukraine has adequate capabilities to stop this advance of the enemy, for that again resources are needed. well, and also another such message, which the same dipste , for example, has, and yuriy botusov, who himself was recently in avdiivka, wrote about it a few days earlier, we know, in avdiivka itself, and not near it, and he ... yes, he

commented quite sharply that there are no serious defense structures, and well, avdiyivka has been the subject of an offensive by the russian federation since the 14th year, and it sounds quite strange, why there are no such to serious concrete lines, fences and so on, that is why i say that the activities of the ukrainian armed forces must be transformed, and by the way, which... well-known western experts insist that sersky learn to tell president zelensky the truth, because illusions they distort our perception of reality, and overheated expectations lead to despair, to certain such turbulent processes within ukrainian society, learning to tell the truth and such a level of a military official is not easy, but i i hope that oleksandr stanislavovich will succeed, because otherwise, if we continue

to be in the illusion that we have. a powerful defensive line of fortifications around avdia, it is actually there, but as we can see, not everywhere, and the fact that the enemy was able to break through our defenses southeast of the avdiivskoye coke-hole shows that we do not have defensive defense structures there, but in all the reports there was information that we are lying, i don't understand, but this lie creates a very serious precedent, a precedent including at the level of... will we keep the audio girl or not, of course, i am sure that general tornavskyi, who is in charge of this direction, will make an appropriate rational decision, i hope that, in the event that we cannot continue to hold avdiyivka, an aryembai will be held, our army within the framework of a maneuverable defense, the western one will withdraw from avdiyivka, he will dare to lend, but again general tornavskyi makes the decision, so

it is not worth telling how he should act. because it is he who understands the subject and it is he who is in the vortex of events in order to decide the most rational solution is connected with the defense of ovdivka. they say exactly what, what, if we talk about what to tell the truth, and, well, it is also possible that the truth should be ready to hear, because what we read there in simon schuster, in his book, who literally lived there and spent the night in the president's office, then the dialogue was not very structured like that of the previous commander-in-chief, precisely because there were different... positions, and in the end, the head communicated more quickly with society than, or maybe with the president, i don't know, on the pages of some western media, to we can see what this led to, the same can be said about yuriy botusov, who is already regularly refused admission to any briefings of president zelensky so that he does not ask uncomfortable questions, well, it is a comment to a comment, of course, and the process of communication is very defining, it either

works and serves. to our unity and unification for the sake of our common victory, or we will renovate in a whirlwind of conflict situations that definitely do not work for our unification, for our unity. we just have to decide if we want to win in this confrontation with the enemy's army , are you ready to surrender to the enemy's death, but here i have very bad news, because the enemy who is invading our land, he plans to destroy ukraine as a state, and ukrainians and a constituent community of peoples of the world, so it cannot be illusions, let's remember the events of the thousand. year, muravyov's army , the kruty, and what happened after the heroic defenders died, and muravyov's army entered kyiv, looted, raped, destroyed the country, and then for more than 70 years ukraine was under soviet occupation.
