of hostilities for a week. and well, first, in the kupyan direction , the fighters of the 25th syacheslav airborne assault brigade are asking us to join the rally for cars, and i am asking you too. i am calling for this, this is the sicheslav brigade, which is constantly in the front positions, they need a car now , in order to carry out combat tasks, we ask everyone who cares to add all the data, you see, card number, qr code, please , every hryvnia of yours is very important and helps our soldiers a lot, and if in general about situation, here is joseph barel, the supreme representative of the european of the union on foreign affairs and security policy, said that a major offensive

by the russian occupation forces is expected in the summer, but you know, general syrsky, who has now become the commander-in-chief, gave an interview just the other day and said that a major offensive is already underway from october 3 the operation of the occupying forces of russia, and it is taking place along the entire front line, the defense forces have switched to a defensive operation, the purpose of which is to exhaust and destroy the offensive forces as much as possible forces of the russians, the goal of the russian offensive is clear - it is the capture of kupyansk, the exit to the river. skil , the capture of avdiyivka, the time ravine, the coal mine, these are all their goals, and so far we can say that within five months, the price of this for the russians is literally thousands of destroyed units of equipment and several dozen destroyed, actually russian fighters, so

that's the story, but it must be said that now it's easy in almost all areas of the front. russian forces and the situation is very, very tense. let's see on the map how it is happened in recent days. map of hostilities for the period february 8-14, 2024, the situation at the front is deteriorating, avdiivka is the last chance for salvation. in avdiivka, the zone of urban battles is rapidly expanding, the russians have advanced in the bakhmut and ughledar directions, instead, the projectile... volodya from zsu is becoming more and more critical. avdiivka - counterattack or retreat. the racists have thrown all possible resources at avdiivka, because time and putin are pressing, if last month an average of 150 cabs per week fell on the city, then now averaging 50 per day. it may be inaccurate, but at the point of fall they totally destroy

the landscape. during the week, the occupiers were able to get critically close to the main logistics in two places. artery, so they managed to break through the tsar's will through a one-story building further to the west, get onto the railway and closely approach the road through which the main supply of our anti-aircraft position is provided. in fact, now the soldiers in this position found themselves blocked, especially since the russians are also advancing east of the checkpoint, trying to surround this the strategically important defense point of avdiyivka. therefore, a counterattack is required to unblock. in addition, in the north of avdiyivka, the invaders expanded the area of ​​their control near the sand quarry and the helmet to the lake, and also wedged themselves even more into the buildings in the garden society. they managed not only to cross the railway track, but also to cut the key road for logistics on almost a kilometer stretch. cutting the specified path threatens to collapse the entire

defense of the city to the south of this place, which is practically the entire avdiivka. except for positions near the coke... plant. in addition, in a week, the invaders advanced several hundred meters in the direction of pervomaisk, which is south of avdiivka. responding to the critical situation, the general staff introduced new reserves to avdiyivka, including reinforcements for the 101st brigade, as well as a partial battalion of the third assault brigade, which had performed very well in this war, especially during the counteroffensive south of bakhmut. there, they liberated several villages, including the strategically important town of klishiivka. now the assault brigade. may be the last chance to counteroffensive in avdiivka or to unblock its defenders and lead them to the controlled sectors of the city. from bakhmut to the temporary yar. throughout january and the beginning of february, the russians could not penetrate our defenses either in ivanivsk or in bohdanivka. however, their offensive at the time of yar did not slow down, on the contrary, it intensified.

this week, thanks to massive strikes by fpv drones and artillery, the rashists managed to push back the zsu. a distance of about 3 km from the position between bohdanivka and ivanivskyi to the outskirts of chasovoy yar from the nearest enemy position 2.5 km left. the city is preparing for defense, because as it turned out, it did not have a properly prepared line of defense. the ugledar direction is the second most important after avdiivka, here the occupiers want to get behind the defense forces in ugledar and significantly collapse the front line in this part of donetsk region. currently, the fighting is going on. around the village of novomykhaivka, which the enemy is storming from three sides, these days the rashists managed to enter the eastern outskirts of the village, as well as approach it again from the south. in addition, they were able to break through several hundred meters on the road between the villages of sweetke and vodyane. they also expanded the area of ​​their control to the north of this road in order to be able to attack the defenders of novomykhaivka in style. another

group of the armed forces of the russian federation is breaking through from the northern side, where they are from the occupied side. continue to attack the village of pabeda, thereby outlining the beginning of the formation of a large ring around the villages stretching to the west of novomykhaivka. southern front, zaporizhzhia. the armed forces of ukraine had unexpected successes on the southern front. there, according to the general ternavskyi, the russians lost 645 soldiers in just one day, and almost 3,000 in a week . although the front line here did not undergo significant changes, the defense forces occupied a gray zone south of kamianskyi to... novkol robotiny bloody battles continue, the front line fluctuates then in one direction, then in the other direction. on the western flank of robotynoy, the armed forces of ukraine managed to significantly push back the invaders in the direction of the village. dug up destruction of the russian military economy. during the week, our drones struck at il and afib oil refineries in the krasnodar territory, located

not far from each other. in addition, as the russians themselves say, planned work caused a fire at an oil refinery in moscow. thanks to the attacks on oil depots and oil plants in january-february, ukraine managed to reduce the january export of russian gasoline by 37%. at 23, and that's just the beginning. a factory that manufactures, repairs and maintains mig aircraft also caught fire in moscow. another planned mushroom explosion occurred in izhevsk at the plant that produces rocket engines, in particular for the iskanders. death to enemies. well, i can also add that literally this morning it became known that today such a gur made an unexpected gift, the destruction of the large amphibious ship caesar kunyakov. we have already talked about it, but it is interesting that, first of all, it was destroyed by a magura v5 naval drone, and secondly, that the caesar kunikov itself is practically the second

ship of this size after moscow, and which russians have there at all , and well, this is a big enough goal, a good goal, it was most likely used to transport ammunition, because now these ships are amphibious, they use them. mainly , as you know, such an auxiliary bridge to the crimean bridge is for the transportation of various uh , well, such, well, it’s as if the bridge is still so maritime, well, it ’s very good, in fact, really very good, it was already damaged in berdyansk on march 25, 2022 , and now he was so... he was already struck, you see, he exploded brightly, so there is hope that he had a lot of ammunition on him, in principle, a very successful, good operation, well, let's move on

to the conversation, we are talking to mykola mykola volokhov, the commander of the tera aerial reconnaissance unit as part of the third separate assault brigade, congratulations mr. mykola, i congratulate you, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, well, actually, if we talk about the destruction of this ship, we literally... we have success, well, our , one might say, unmanned systems that are being developed, and this is actually a drone strike, besides, a separate command has now been created, well, such unmanned forces, unmanned there, one might say, in the armed forces of ukraine, the announcement of them creation, and i wanted to ask you about it right away, maybe you have already somehow seen or heard what exactly should happen, because we see that... drone sections are in all defense forces, there, well, and even the sbu , gur, in each unit there is more or less in each brigade,

this, this is the general command, it has to somehow unite them, well, something is heard about this in general, look, of course, it is very nice that they create such things, drones there are very different ones, they fly and ride on land and swim on water and under water. and the most important thing is that they replace people, yes, that is, for us , we can save human lives, we can save human lives, using unmanned technologies, if we talk about such things , you know, now, yes, let's put it another way, first of all, i want to say that the creation of such forces, it's very good, they don't have a project yet, as i understand it, the president gave an order to the cabinet of ministers and the general staff to create a project, and the project will be developed for the time being. and then it will be presented, i don't know if it will be a public presentation or not, but it is a movement in the right direction, about you know, there is a lot of talk about it now

in various units, whether drones will and should be taken from battalions of brigades, ground forces, paratroopers, special forces, of course, there is no need, and i sincerely believe that no one will do this , well, it’s simple... who contradicts common sense, we need to build up unmanned vehicles, not shuffle them around, and i’m sure that this is exactly the way ukraine will go, and what are the thoughts on this topic, well, i’ll be honest, we have a lot of friends , since this is our profile, it was discussed, and there are several main opinions: on at the stage of the formation of this project, the formation of the project and the success of the project will depend on whether those specialists will be involved who have shown themselves in the first two years of the war. the result is working directly with unmanned means on the front, and it is very easy to understand which teams these are, who has a lot of impressions, who hit the enemy a lot effectively,

the one... is active, it is worth consulting, at the second stage of the formation of the teams, whether they will be involved such people for the team, and who will be in this team in general, well, in the third stage, you know, already here, like this whole team will work, but i am sure that if the first two stages are carried out correctly, then the probability of success will be extremely high, the unmanned forces must be increased, i repeat again, in no case do not take these means from those units in which... they are already effective are used , well, there is hope that it will be taken into account, because the newly appointed deputy commander-in-chief of the armed forces of ukraine is colonel vadym sukharevskyi, who will actually be responsible for unmanned systems, and he himself was the commander of the 59th separate motorized infantry brigade, in composition it was operated by one of the most famous units that

specialized in drones... magyar birds, so he probably has experience and understands this in general, well, the subject itself. let's hope that it will be taken into account, we will return to this conversation, i want to ask you a little bit about the situation under the time gap, since i understand that it is at least close to you, and there appeared the assessment of such a group deep state, who said that actually under the current yar , well, the advance of the russian troops was largely due to the use itself drones is very effective and it also revealed the weakness of our, well, let's say our defensive positions, well, firstly, do you share the fact that it is thanks to the drones and the fathers, and secondly, do you share the opinion that it is really weak there or

not. equipped positions, here as an assessment, if according to the result, you know, if the position could not withstand the onslaught of the enemy, accordingly it was weak, weak relative to this onslaught, everything in this world is relative, in war also everything is relative, was weak relative to the onslaught, with any, you know, you have to be able to recognize some of your shortcomings. framing , draw conclusions from this and improve, i know that in this direction the armed forces of ukraine, my unit, for which i can confidently say, is actively working on the introduction, yes purchase, search, purchase and introduction of radio electronic warfare means, they recently purchased 10 electronic warfare complexes, they haven't arrived yet, we only have one so far, but...

they will arrive and we will feel much safer against enemy drones kamikaze. again there is a question: are we weak or are the russians strong, of course, russia is a serious enemy, and if anyone thought that maybe, if we have had some success lately, then this is a victory, the end of the war and russia is nothing new to us anymore will show, these people were wrong, on... this indicates reality, we must be prepared for the fact that russia will still try to break our defense, our task is to hold on and not let her do it, and that's how i see it all, i think, that so far there is no disaster, but we have a lot to actively draw conclusions from what is happening at the front and have to adapt very actively, we have the right to make a mistake, and tell me, you know, a simple

logical question arises. if such use of uavs there was successful, well, so was our active use of uavs, it means that now the russians, at least in this aspect , prevail, or were there simply some other additional factors, something additional that made this work easier for them, you know, there is such a thing as initiative on the battlefield, sometimes the one who shows. the initiative receives operative advantage, the one who goes on the offensive, because the one who works as the number one, who shows the initiative can get an advantage from the effect of not surprise, yes, but then it all evens out, and here, let's say, you need not only to break through the enemy somewhere defense, and to knock out enemy positions, they still need to be occupied, they need to be entrenched, i have observed many times,

both from our side and from the outside. the enemy, when the operative is reached.
