are they returning, are there statistics on population growth specifically in terms of the return of people to kharkiv, to kharkiv oblast, perhaps from other regions where they were temporarily, as internally displaced persons, or from abroad, if possible briefly, but this is very important, interesting questions , today we have more people leaving than arriving, the fact that those people who arrive are mainly people... who have already been forcibly resettled from the war zone from the border, according to statistics, we have 350,000 internally displaced persons, of them 170,000 are internally displaced persons within our borders oblast, it's just so you know the numbers , and today, unfortunately, there is an outflow of the population, because emotionally and psychologically, people just don't... get, well, that's a fact, looking at

these shots and following these news from kharkiv and kharkiv region, it is absolutely understandable here, and actually, it is possible and correct that people will save themselves in order to return later, because there is no hope that north korean rockets or ballistic missiles will not fly into your home, or at a base near your home. and such a risk is very high, thank you very much joined in, thank you for your comments, oleksandr skoryk, a deputy of the kharkiv regional council, was in touch with us, and today kharkiv was saying goodbye to... those who died from an enemy attack, and now we will talk about the situation in mykolaiv oblast, where the enemy has also recently is very active in mykolaiv, viktoria moskolenko, deputy of the mykolaiv regional council. mrs. victoria, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, well , right away, let's start with the consequences of the last enemy attacks, on the night of the 11th, if i'm not mistaken, there was such a large-scale, large-scale attack, and so the enemy is attacking mykolaiv oblast blows, please tell about the consequences and , again, how to explain the activation, such a significant activation... russians specifically regarding mykolaiv?

yes, the security situation in mykolaiv oblast has worsened a lot. we can observe this literally since february 7, when there was a missile strike, when about 100 residential buildings were damaged, one person died, and after that these strikes actually do not stop, the only thing is drone attacks, missile attacks after.. . there was no strike on february 7, but at the same time the same can be said no less about the consequences of damage from drones attacks, from shahednyh, so today, if we take the last day, it is also close, this is what was recorded at this moment about 25 damaged residential buildings, there are also injuries, people seek medical help, thank god, victims. ..

no, but still this is very serious damage to residential buildings, as well as the infrastructure that is nearby, also, if we take a couple of days ago, these were also strikes on the infrastructure, on certain industrial facilities, so we can say that this the period of intensive shelling of the mykolayiv region, this from february 7 to today , serious damage has been caused, and what concerns residential buildings in particular. the people were hit by a very powerful rocket before that, but the rocket was a chasm in the road, but all the same, all the houses are almost not subject to restoration today in terms of being restored with small forces and people could live, so they are looking for housing, these are friends, these are neighbors, these are dormitories and everything else, i.e. if taken in total, it is about 300 residential buildings that... need to

be restored, i have two such questions it will be, first by sowing, i read today that they started sowing in the mykolaiv region, you can not specify where, so that the enemy there does not start attacking our bread and our farmers at the very beginning, but i read that it is supposedly agricultural, maybe it is no, again, i'm not saying that it's 100%, but that supposedly agricultural machinery should be registered in the territorial collection centers. and as in connection with the fact that mobilization has been strengthened, well, not strengthened, there will simply be a law on mobilization now, some the rules will be certain, well, and sowing, whether there is such, whether there is such and such information that this equipment must somehow be assigned somewhere and must be registered for military needs, or does it apply only there, let's say some graders or excavators, well for the construction of fortifications, especially in the mykolaiv region , as far as i understand, funds are also allocated for fortifications, please, you know, this issue is very relevant in the plan...

the use of equipment, engineering equipment, let's say, for military needs, this issue no one for some reason ever like that, well no raised officially, yes at the level. military administrations at the level of regions, but i , for example, do not really agree with the fact that this equipment is taken from private agricultural enterprises, because i see such equipment that can help our military when roads are being repaired and roads are being repaired in mykolaiv oblast and around the city of mykolaiv where it is not needed, excuse me, they come to such absurd repairs, repairs, such absurd areas that when pedestrian paths are made on the lower embankment, those people from mykolaiv, they will understand me , where no one ever goes, and you see this cool technique that could be used, this question is always in my mind when i drive along these repair works, and this

question, let's say, well, hangs in the air , because you and i understand that even if you ask him as the head of the region and later as a deputy, you will not get an answer. simply referring to the fact that the martial law, although everyone sees it, and people raised the issue very actively in social networks, that people were against such repairs, it is necessary to involve technology, and this technique, as i understand it, is involved once it is engaged in contract work, in relation to sowing, sowing must be carried out, it must be supported, and i will say that our farmers and owners, they already help the armed forces, for example, those with whom i ... i talk to those i know, they always take the initiative to help anyway, but the fact that today they are demining part of the land that is to be planted by their own efforts, invest their money, take risks somewhere, repurpose themselves somewhere, because many acquaintances, which today have been repurposed into, for example,

growing not grains, but growing vegetables and other things, that's why they want to earn money and at the same time give taxes to us and ukraine, that's why... it's positive, it's supported, god forbid that everything will work out for them. thank you very much, mrs. victoria, just as svitlana klymenko wrote in the comment, mykolaiv region is building fortifications against a possible attack from the sea. well , i will not comment on that now, i will say that the people from the mykolaiv region are obviously watching us and are also voicing their reservations and fears, i believe that the fortifications there will be, especially since the money is allocated from the regional budget of half a billion, well, we believe that they will be built. victoria moskalenko, deputy of the mykolaiv regional council, was in touch with us, thank you very much. i talk about fortification so much, because today it will be the topic of my colleague serhiy zgurets, he is already in touch with us, the director of the defense express agency and the host of the military summaries of the day column. sergey, congratulations, please continue. i congratulate you, vasyl, i congratulate our viewers, today indeed one of the topics of my program is fortification on the battlefield, desired and real, and the second component is about

personnel changes at the head of the armed forces of ukraine and about the dynamics of hostilities around avdiyivka. more on that in a moment. so, the enemy is now trying to take advantage of manpower, ammunition, equipment and is trying to push through in certain areas of the front. the intensity of combat clashes is quite high. over the past day, there were 100 repulsed enemy attacks, which is a high figure. 2/3, it was exactly avdiyivka, maryanka, there were also 19 more battles, this is around bakhmut. and of course, when we are on the defensive, we immediately remember about that it would be well to have good fortifications and engineering works to protect our defenders. this is extremely relevant in the context of avdiyivka, where new lines of defense must

be ready, regardless of whether we have to retreat from them or not. likewise, in particular, the access of the enemy in the direction of chasovyar, which is 2 km away, and the deepstate analysts today. wrote that the area around the clock tower can be made impregnable, but i quote: the history of the construction of engineering and fortification structures and preparation for defense leaves much to be desired better, so this statement wants better, can't help but worry, why yes, what we have with fortifications, so some details for understanding. let me remind you that for the first time the president of ukraine spoke about the need for fortification. according to the results of the supreme commander-in-chief's bid on november 30, now we have a video where you can listen to the president, where he outlined a list of tasks and areas where fortification should be done, let's listen

, in all the main directions, where it is necessary to strengthen, speed up the construction of structures, of course , this is primarily avdiivskyi, mariana and other directions in donetsk region , maximum attention, kharkiv region is the kupyan region, also the defensive line of kupyansk, liman, and the entire kharkiv region, and sumy region, and chernihiv region, and... kyiv and rivne regions, volyn and also the south, kherson region. that is, in fact, all regions are named, fortification was needed and is needed now everywhere. substantial funds were then allocated for this. in january of the 24th year, the government announced that uah 17.5 billion would be directed to this, both for the construction of engineering and technical and fortification structures, and then it was allocated more. an additional 2.5 billion, as was said, to relevant departments and regional state

administrations. the progress of the fortification works was publicly reported, except for the commander of the united armed forces, general serhii nayev, who has already been removed from his post, who said that from june 22nd to january 24th in the northern operational zone, that is, on the border with erefiya belarus, new ones were built. fortification lines with ditches, pillboxes and new strongholds, and that the density of mine-explosive barriers was increased as much as 16 times. according to the general, then the construction of defensive lines was carried out by private companies under the leadership of military engineers, but this is true, let's say so, there is an optimistic side of the coin and the reverse, the details of which i am forced to retell now, talking... with officials, with the military, it turns out that work is not going on in all areas

quickly, and there are a number of reasons that slow it down, what are these reasons? name three problems: first, a significant part of the time was spent, or is still spent, on the coordination of these fortification projects in each section, the coordination of estimates for these sections, i am told that it was necessary to take typical projects, tie these projects to the locality and build them without... an estimate, and then receive money after the fact, but they are afraid to do so, because then they will have problems with the state development bureau, which , as they say to me, will certainly appear, and for this reason, private companies are in no hurry to contract the construction of these fortifications, and state companies do not have sufficient capacities. the second problem concerns the involvement of workers. it turns out that a shortage of people, difficult conditions and urgency produces. certain salary expectations, but there are standards

for the payment of labor costs, which are limited by these estimates, and that is, this salary cannot be high, so in some areas or in certain areas the progress is less than it could be with fortification, despite the fact that the money formally exists for these needs, and third , except that you have to dig ditches. and stretch these concrete dragon teeth and dig concrete bunkers, what is called fortification, everything still needs to be properly mined, for example, to install anti-tank mines. according to soviet standards , there was such a norm that 100 is needed for 1 km min. now these figures have been increased by five or six times, and in particular i would like to remind you that 500,000 anti-tanks have already been installed halfway to the north in the main areas of the enemy's offensive. mine, but de facto, it turns out that this is not enough, we need somewhere within 4 million. and do

we have anti-tank mines, i asked. the answer was as follows: we have a certain shortage of tm-62 mines, this is an exchange of tm-62, this is precisely this main soviet anti-tank mine. we do not produce these mines, we have a certain stock of detonators for these mines. and the mine itself is actually 10 kg in weight, as we can see now. there together with a detonator, 8 kg is, relatively speaking, an explosive that consists of tnt and hexogen, and we do not produce these components, so this phrase is a certain shortage of mines, i interpreted it so that we have to look for such mines and to buy on the foreign market, at least until we master the production of hexogen or tnt, and all this is actually related to the work of our industry, this is actually far from all the difficulties. which relate to the current measures of fortification and engineering of the front, although for

protecting the lives of soldiers in the format of our defense, this is of extremely urgent importance. therefore, attention to the traditional forms of providing combat operations should be no less than the creation of new types of troops there, such as unmanned systems, because with the development of new technologies, we must not forget those basic things that... ensure effective defense on the front line, more we will talk about the front, about large-scale personnel changes in the armed forces and their impact on the army, and which has an echo on society and maybe even about a new one the philosophy of war, if it can be assessed or formulated at all, and now we are joined by viktor kevlyuk, a reserve colonel and an expert at the center for defense strategies. mr. viktor, i welcome you to the spresso broadcast, i'm glad to see and hear, it's been a long time since we talked to you. good evening, mr. sergey, nice to see you too. i can't help but ask

about avdiivka first, because the audience is also asking me, and i think they are expecting... how to assess the current situation and possible changes on this most heated part of the front, i think you have something to say to our audience? on mine opinion, the enemy has finally decided that he is close to achieving success in the avdiyivka area and is advancing in the most, so to speak, inconvenient way for us, over the past day the enemy has advanced in the private sector to... southeast of the coke chemical plant, controls a significant part of this of a private building, walked somewhere 200 m, but it is very difficult for him, and he very seriously lost the pace of the offensive in this area. he is also trying to break into the area of ​​the fire-rescue unit, avdiivska, and

break as deep as possible into the ninth. if if the enemy manages to do this and get out in the chemist district, this is the district of the city of avdiyivka, then our defense, unfortunately, will lose its integrity and stability, and the further defense of the city will either have a focal such a focal character, or in principle it is possible to retreat in advance, because to hold it will not succeed, and it will happen... sooner or later, the enemy is also trying to advance in the area of ​​the railway lane, in the north of avdeivka, east of nevilskyi, advanced along timeryazuza street, to the agricultural machinery in the north of the city, near pervomayskyi, heavy, fierce

positional battles continue in the districts of novokalynovoy, novobakhmutivka, in avdiivka itself on the outskirts. near thinenko, near the northern one, pervomaiskyi, the enemy continues to try to cut the main logistics route from lavstochkino to avdiivka, now it is somewhere in different sections from 700 m to 2 km, that is, formally this highway is already under enemy fire control, today the command of the operational-strategic tavria's troop grouping... there are some changes in this area, but what are these changes and what should we expect, it was not said, i think that the enemy is in for a surprise. mr. viktor, you previously did not rule out the possibility that we will have to withdraw from avdovka, and this is one assessment of reality, on

the other hand, it is known that our reserves will be diverted in this direction, in particular. some publications even began to write about the transfer of even a third separate assault brigade to this direction, and against the background of this , the question arises whether it is possible to further determine from the actions around avdiivka what approaches the new commander-in-chief will confess regarding actions in certain directions, of course i first of all, i mean the actions of syrsky as the new holocommander in the context of this. the situation in avdiivka, will it be possible to establish a cause-and-effect relationship, how we fight near avdiivka, then we will fight in the same way in other directions, either using the maximum reserves, or making some other decisions? i think that it should not and will not be possible to do this, because the enemy, operating again in vevdiyiv, is trying to push us to the bakhmunt

scenario, when they simply destroyed the city and... on the ruins, of course, the grouping of troops khortytsia, which was held by bakhmut, was fighting an enemy group that outnumbered it by five times. in avdeivka , the situation is somewhat different, on the other hand, avdeivka is a specific city, accordingly, a specific situation is created around this territory, the enemy refused. from a frontal assault on the coke chemical plant and is trying to bypass it from the north, that is, we are observing a somewhat different operational picture of how it will act... it is difficult to say the new commander-in-chief of the armed forces, first of all, the military operations in avdeivka are directed by the commander of the 110th of the mechanized brigade, commanding

the operational-strategic grouping of tavria troops, general tornavskyi, and the bulk of the decisions in these areas, as a matter of fact , belong to him, what the new commander-in-chief will be able to support them with, how he will contribute to... defense, how we will act , well, it is difficult to say so far, and it seems that after all, it is necessary to push back precisely from how the commanders who have been in this direction for a long time will act, of course, and then the second question is no less relevant, it is actually your assessment of these unprecedented, as on significant personnel changes in the management of the armed forces, because it is not only about the team. not only about the chief of the general staff, but also a number of commanders of military branches, a number of new deputies there, whether this massive, significant, significant change of generals

will affect, relatively speaking, the continuity of command of the forces, because many people have changed, and what are the consequences may have such a, well, mass replacement of people, well, it's not worth watching. you should not expect a loss of management stability, and the staffs remained the same, the people responsible for the organization communications management is the same, the style of work will certainly change, because new officials occupy the chairs of commanders and commanders of new ones. on the other hand, the simultaneous replacement of 16 generals. on other officials, i cannot recall such a case in the history of wars, when

the leadership was replaced so en masse. what can it be called? on the one hand, this is certainly an indicator of a change in strategy, which ukraine has chosen as its guiding line this year. on the other hand, i want to be wrong, but... it looks like we're getting ready to make peace, eh that's enough, well, it's such a difficult conclusion , for now we won't delve into it, then i'll ask you about the things you emphasize in your publications, i read them carefully, taking into account your officer experience and phage and other components, as a military expert, is? there are three theses in your publications that are worth paying attention to, in particular, that the ukrainian army preserved the soviet heritage by all means for 32 years, secondly, that no one in the ukrainian army

began to replace people who were carriers of the old philosophy of war, and the third thesis: nothing will come out with a new philosophy, because the army is a segment of society and ukrainian culture inherent in society will dominate in the army, so the question arises, significant personnel changes and these three systemic ... problems that you wrote about earlier, is it possible to change the philosophy of war in the ukrainian army, with where to start, what to take as an example, what pulls us back? a new philosophy can come only with a new generation of military personnel. if citizens have not yet abandoned the practice of going to the doctor with a box of sweets, and if the case is serious with a bottle of cognac, then probably in the army it's the same... the same people will follow the same path, well, no matter what, the british military historian sir

beselgard said that it is more difficult than putting a new idea into the heads of the military, it is only to knock the old one out of it, so i think that this is the process of removing the old idea, the old philosophy , and this is what the new command should... focus on, that is, in fact, there is hope that the arrival of these new generals, the recent brigade commanders, after all, gives a certain optimism that they may be able to ensure the creation of such a new critical masses thinking, which may then turn into a new philosophy of war and relations in the armed forces itself, look at the people called up for mobilization, they are in principle.

it is about the fact that interpersonal relations, management culture, they are formed mainly by society, and not by a military school. the military school imposes certain special methods on this, because armed struggle has many differences from ordinary business, for example, i want new people, many of whom, i know personally, are absolutely progressive. but will the will suffice first and the pressure to promote new things, i hope it will be enough, will they be supported by the new command, and the command, as a matter of fact, choose not to be rich, or to support those whom you have attracted to your team, or you will be defeated, and we literally have one minute , i would like to ask, the new law on mobilization, adopted in the first reading, whether

it carries the foundations of a new... philosophy of war, or whether it rather carries the foundations of a certain, let's say, soviet legacy, and where for some reason the mobilization of the economy, mobilization industry, we are talking only about a person , first of all, the law is not about mobilization, but about making changes to legislative and regulatory acts of ukraine, the law about mobilization, which is being amended, is one of the 12 mentioned in that bill, the changes are being made in... the law on the national police, in the codes of labor laws, a huge number of documents are undergoing changes. as for the transfer of the national economy to the military rails, this is a political decision, it does not depend on the law, whether we see it or not, we don't see the russians, in addition to transferring their enterprises

of the defense-industrial complex to three-shift work. for example, in gentle tagil, next to the ural wagon plant , which is the main producer of tanks, a zone, an institution, of the federal penitentiary service was built, so that people serving their sentences could work at the tank plant, and thus some there to pay off our debts to the state, we should not do the same. but to close one's eyes and not see that the enemy is twisting his own bolt with all his might of the defense-industrial complex, this is wrong. mr. viktor, thank you very much for your clear explanations, i think they will be heard by our officials and our viewers, and i will remind you that viktor kivlyuk, a reserve colonel and an expert of the center for defense strategies, was at filkno espresso. these were the main highlights of the military results of the day, more

international news later in vasyl zima's big broadcast, so stay tuned to the espresso channel. these were the military results of the day, thanks to serhii zgorets, thanks to his guests, and we will continue in just a moment. weekly the saturday political club helps to understand the processes taking place in ukraine and the world. vitaly portnikov, khrystyna yatskiv and invitation. experts based on facts give their assessment and forecast of the development of events. if you want to understand how our today will affect our tomorrow, watch the saturday political club. every saturday at espresso.
