minute by minute in avdiivka itself and in the surrounding areas, and along that front line, which has now moved on the maps, we have already seen it all officially, so we are asking you for the latest report from the locations where you are. yes, i will immediately tell you about the mood, may i? so, in principle, all, absolutely all of our, well, military, after the command was given. the departure, that is, the exit from avdiivka, we have, in principle, understanding the situation that has developed, the mood has risen, despite the fact that this is our territory, our city and so on, that is, the front is aligned, and the troops are in more profitable the situation we are in now, that is, the front line has leveled off, and now we will be able , let's say so... to feel the elbow of our neighbors

from the right to the left more concretely and more confidently, that is, in relation to what the enemy did, well, he clearly did, because they there really was an advantage in artillery ammunition there, the same aviation was very strong, the concentration itself was involved in avdiivka itself, oh and this could not help but give them an advantage in this matter, so to speak, but at what cost , that's the price they are paid, well, it probably still affects their mood, we know it too, we hear it from interceptions, from the fact that they talk among themselves there and so on, so it affects me and not only me, but many soldiers who are here today on the battlefield, then it was the right decision, and avdiivka its task. mr. serhiy, we actually understand all

the difficulty that existed before, because not having a bull, as they say, to cut through in the north near lastochkino or in the south near pervomaiskyi, from the brothers, well, there was not a lot of help, there arta could cut and then avdiivka would still remain under control, that’s how they explained to us , since it didn’t happen, plus dominance in the air, plus... kabib, it was logical that you leveled the front line, and now brothers from the north or from the south - this is now an effective help. we understand the logic here. were the lessons of, for example, the same bakhmut taken into account, as your colleague , the senior officer of the third separate assault brigade, tells us. they say that their, their own decision to use them was in order to hold the perimeter and that including your 59. where could

calmly exit the city, well, calmly is in quotation marks, we just saw footage of this exit from avdiivka, these are the footage that was provided to us. from the third assault brigade, that's how far it was possible to use er, well, let's say this, their help and withdraw the personnel, because we heard that some group of our military servicemen was captured, we are not told which, where and how it happened, well , that's clear, we'll know later, but how did you manage, did you manage to get to a new position? lossless, so see here, here, here an important aspect, you have touched now , so, uh, to evaluate certain uh actions, whether it was right or wrong, uh, it is not very appropriate at the moment, so why, i repeat, this is a military

operation, withdrawal, this is also a military operation, withdrawal from cities, alignment of the front, and here it is necessary to voice, well, well, he has the right, it really is not... because i don't want to say whether i was banned there, but only the general staff has the right to voice, why? because the enemy is watching closely, he is learning from us in the course of this war, the enemy is learning from us as it should be to act correctly in certain actions, and our commanders, i mean, first of all , the commanders-in-chief of the directions, and the commanders-in-chief and commanders of formations are very competent officers, this must be taken into account and... we give them no chance for that they use today, they, they do everything practically in a mirror, so that the method by which they learned, yes, it is the same for everyone, but the abilities are different, and therefore, we

are better at managing troops, that’s what i ’m saying, in our this is absolutely taking into account each sergeant, commander of the department and so on, that is they. we don't announce it, but at the same time, even with the withdrawal, yes, we put a large number of the enemy in it and destroyed the same armored vehicles, that's why i think that we had to go to new frontiers, with combat contacts. this is absolutely a normal tactic when withdrawing, because the dear enemy who is advancing, he tries to go in on his shoulders and continue his, to expand his success, you understand, yes, this is a normal tactic, and our command also took it into account, that is

why you see, those units that were involved in combat in the active phase of this retreat, this is a plan not in a minute, here... a situation developed, an operation was planned and the third assault team came down there and so on, well done, guys, these are heroes, each and every one who does it, well, it's nice, we, we we are all one family, you understand, we are all one family, it is not possible here, and she performed the 110th task very well, so honor and praise to everyone, mr. sergey, and i have two more questions, essentially in one, we know that you have a levy on rebs for the 59th... so please tell me more about it and also add how often they are now, after we left avdiyivka, are they using the same drones, or are they still hunting as intensively as before, but about

the situation in the air that has developed now, we are collecting air, yes, that means we are collecting it for an electronic means of countermeasures with an unmanned aircraft. which will allow us from a distance to destroy these pre-school things that they launch there, because we , on some days, there were 70 and 80 drops, only from drones, drops, not counting kamikaze drones and so on , that is, today we are very actively working to make the village itself to collect there. different types , that is, unmanned aerial vehicles, and they need to be planted, so that they have rap set to such a flow, they put these portable portable stations on all their equipment, and they will harm, prevent us, well, actively destroy them,

so it is very necessary a tool that will help , i will repeat again, at a distance, which is remotely controlled, which... has a gps navigator, and so on, transmits video, and of course, i will report back to you to all our viewers who will join this, in that number, mr. sergey, for a second, i'm a little bit i will interrupt you, i just want to explain to our viewers, now, when the qr code appears, turn on the camera, point at this qr code in the square, and it will send you directly to the link of this, uh, bank fee for this powerful car long-range radio electronic warfare, here is a camera, a qr code, you press it with your finger, there will be a link and you can go to the bank collection via it, we still have it. to talk, mr. serhiy, please, about this air threat, it has increased, decreased, what is the situation now,

well, the last day, this night, i will say so, yes, passed more or less calmly, well, they need to get dressed, after all, avdiivka, around avdiivka, that’s all, you know, there, we have the feeling here, there are massive corpses, as if we are in a morgue somewhere, i know that the russians have increased and increased the number these own transfer'. these, what are they called there, morgues, crematoriums, yes, yes, crematoriums have been increased, that is, they continue to do it in the same, from the same perspective, and you understand, we are doing everything right, it still affects them very much, sooner or later they have 4002, more four 402, there mr. serhiu. and it was precisely on the number that we lost contact, probably he wanted to tell us about how they put

corpses after corpses, there are also videos from different publics, for ethical reasons we cannot show you how the russians close with their rods dzurkas from our roads, what surprises me is that our general staff usually gives approximate figures, but the numbers about the losses of the enemy, and the russians, their soldiers, are several times larger numbers. well, the russians even gave bigger numbers, mr. serhiy, please continue the number is exactly 402 of us, or 300 killed orcs , 4002, you understand what this number is, the count has already reached half a million killed, and the wounded and those colic who roam the expanses of these swamps today and even more, and it cannot be said, plus the internal situation. we, more than ever now, all ukrainians need consolidation, uh, participation, to take an active

part in that and that's all, and we, we will win in any way, we are already an example for the whole world, how good with small forces can defeat evil, uh, and uh, this, this should, well, never be forgotten for one second, because here, when you are, yes, when you see her, well, torment, yes, how is torment? to say the conditions, yes , in which you have to perform certain tasks, and traveling there hundreds of kilometers from the front line, a completely different life, and god forbid that it be as peaceful as possible, but at the same time, there should be some kind of equality for those who are fighting, who are in the rear, including such an interaction between this whole society, well, as far as i could , here is my opinion...

actually, thank you, you conveyed your opinion, and we will also remind you that the collection for the 59th separate motorized infantry brigade named after yakov handziuk is a collection for the powerful rep, they are holding the defense on the new lines together with their brothers, mr. serhiy, thank you for service and give separate congratulations to all defenders. avdiivka from the 59th separate motorized infantry brigade, well , for a short break, for a short break, we will return later, general of the army of ukraine mykola malomush will be with us and we will also analyze avdiivka and the situation on the ukrainian front, wait there are discounts on aphid max 10% in psarynyk, bam and oskad drugstores. marcel shakhtar exclusively on meego. zander. hove and company will put on a show in france to reach the round of 16 of the europa league. watch the match on february 22 at

intellectuals, experts-patriots about challenges, threats and our future in a special project for the 10th anniversary. the beginning of russia's armed aggression against ukraine 10 years of the war for independence from february 18 on espresso. good morning, thank you for espresso, thank you for not forgetting to donate even on weekends, for god's sake, the armed forces of ukraine do not forget to shoot down russian-fascist aircraft on weekends, and here it is already at 6 in the morning, that is, 3 hours ago. .. another su-34 grounded, well , in the meantime, we will analyze with the knowledge of the army general and the former head of the foreign service intelligence of mykola malomuzha, everything that is happening at the front, mr. mykola, congratulations, glory to ukraine, congratulations, glory to the heroes, eh, well, there are analysts who sit far away, but collect this

information, write that the withdrawal from avdiyivka, and in general the necessity leave this... this part to the enemy, this is because there was maximum dominance in the local area of ​​the front in the air of the russian federation, yes, the institute of war studies is analyzing this situation, as you can see, we do not say the right, wrong decision, the military says , what the correct solution is leveling the front line, not about this question, the question is exactly how much you evaluate the operation itself, it is very... a complex operation to level the front and leave the avdiivka in terms of the quality of execution and planning? well, first of all, we are talking about the fact that... he personally controlled the capture of the city, he set the task of capturing this city for 100 days. for him , it is important before the nomination for the elections and for

the elections right now, so throw all the resources of russia, not just the front, but russia, because special forces and special forces were thrown the last few weeks, from the far east , the middle of russia, from those countries that were under the control of russia, there are active, well , internal, flows or they will provide, for example, measures in syria, that is , special forces of a highly professional level, and the vagdorov people, and of course power and techniques , especially cabs, cluster bombs, chemical shells, that's all that was used, so really, a huge power, somewhere one in seven, one in 10 was on this format, to hold just avdiivka in such conditions, when everything destroyed and when really the enemy is... advancing with different sides, and we can endanger the lives of our three brigades, for example, several battalions, special forces, it is clear that they

should work more effectively in other prepared positions than in this cauldron, where the enemy is throwing everything he can , that is why i believe that the ways of retreat and unblocking were worked out early on, which would allow us to get out of avdiivka in a more controlled manner, first of all, this is the third assault brigade in the rear. was in these measures, two more brigades that covered the withdrawal, one battalion special unit , well, of course, the special unit of the main intelligence department, these forces ensured not only the retreat, but the main process of unblocking the enemy, destroying the enemy in very large quantities, we are talking literally per day during this period, but in total more than a thousand people were destroyed, but wounded, that’s for sure... well, i’ll say another one and a half or two, that’s for sure, that is, it ’s the enemy’s losses, it’s their unblocking, closing , not only along the logistical route, but

the retreat routes, and of course, the formation just columns and breakthrough groups, which unexpectedly struck the enemy from the style, from the slats, this was our tactic of unblocking, withdrawing the troops and transferring them to their starting positions, which is important that we have been preparing for several months. a powerful ukryp-district, which provided for the transfer of our experienced soldiers from avdiyivka to these positions, that the enemy on the shoulders of our retreat did not go on further offensive operations, and so it happened, we kept, as a rule, the main composition, we took the main positions there, where the enemy cannot move freely today and we are carrying out further strikes, and indeed there were some problems, as ternavskyi said, that just a few, well... a few dozen of our soldiers were captured, but these are the sectors that were cut off and it was actually impossible to unblock them, because they there were a lot of them, there were dozens of them, and

it is very difficult to control each one, that is why there are losses, unfortunately, but i think that strategically we have withdrawn positions behind him and have a promising enemy further on, preventing the implementation of the second stage, they predicted after the action fully to seize the donetsk region, this did not happen, mr. makolo. and actually , having withdrawn, now the main task of the armed forces in the vicinity of avdiyivka is the defense of those villages, starting from stepovoy and down to the south to pervomaisky, so as to prevent the advance in direction, for example , the same pokrovsk, did we make or were we able to draw conclusions from the avdiiv operation so that we could further detain them, because we understand that, as you said, to seize donetsk region and that is their goal, well, about... different scenarios were working , and a new command, still an old chief of the general staff and these models were already in operation , they were preparing in advance

to fortify these inhabited and other settlements, a decision was made to set up just powerful fortified positions, these are also fortifications, this is, accordingly, just a series of mines, powerful artillery complexes, which are under cover criproionnym, so that the enemy would not deliver aviation without... pilots, that is, this whole system has been worked out, the new command , when it came to our road, already saw this direction, the more they took part in preparation of such events, so i think there are no prospects there, but what you said is true, in any case, if we evaluate it like this in general, it is the right decision, but it is still a loss of the city and territory, putin is campaigning on this and not only political, as well as military, because he has advantages there at the front, they are starting to be promoted in all armies, as we say to russia abroad. therefore, we have to take into account these operations, which are, because for a long time the pincers were closed, indeed, that words are not enough means, especially ammunition and advanced technology did not allow to hit the

rear. these ticks, the flanks of these ticks, which would not only not unlock the audio unit, but simply destroy them, could be one of the options for the attack on donetsk, but i emphasize first of all, there was not enough firepower that the partners did not provide us, well, the crisis accordingly, politically, the usa did not allow the delivery of high-precision artillery, the same guided bombs for 150 km, which could be of critical importance for the war machine, today this is already being discussed specifically, there will be deliveries additionally, in addition to our fleet of drones from britain, germany, france, the usa, now the same long-range warfare will be delivered, accordingly, bombs at 150 km, this is another format, in addition, germany and a number of countries give us tanks, armored personnel carriers, bmps, that is, which will be destroyed by drones, there are systematically, now , cheetahs, and of course, the armored vehicles of the enemy, that is, today, first of all, we will prepare

positions as fortified areas, minefields. powerful fields, a powerful army of drones and, of course , armored vehicles, which will take part in the defense of not only donetsk region, but the entire perimeter from kupyansk to zaporizhzhia region. by the way, mr. mykola, you mentioned the zaporizhzhia region, yesterday, in fact, when we were still completing, and it is still ongoing, the operation to level the front in the naodiivsk direction, in fact already along the very long line of the southern front in several places, and especially... where they want, this ledge near the work, well, you also align and move in the direction of the destroyed nuts, large forces went, really large forces attacked, two attacks were with the use of a large number equipment and personnel, both were repulsed sharply, there are incredible losses in both manpower and equipment, but is this the scenario that now after avdiivka they

will try from the south, well... distracting our defenders , of course in other areas, there in bakhmutskyi, lemano-kupinskyi, but they will concentrate the main blow there, level the ledge near the work, and in general advance along the southern front line. and i think that after the active direction they will have no real prospects for the time being in donetsk region, so they will concentrate on in two strategic directions, this is a work in progress, because we are still gradually devaluing their efforts there to expand the bridgeheads that we have accumulated, but today they want to conquer them again, so to speak, so that there is no threat to the eastern logistics way , we are talking not only robotino, but precisely in the direction of melitopol, tokmak, and this is the provision of the entire zaporizhzhya-kherson group of the east, 2/3 that goes there, 1/3 through the kerch bridge, through the strait , respectively through the isthmus, that is therefore

overlap is critical for them because... c given the situation , the closer we are there, the more we tighten the missile systems that hit, for example, hymers 80 km, we also take out the takmak, we take out the railway, we take out all the moving columns, so today it is critical for them to push us away from just that ee format, well, not only works, here is a treasure, and they will continue to try, and therefore this tactic, as they consider it successful, that the institute for the elimination of war says, is the use of aviation, guided aviation... missiles or bombs, on the other hand these are phosphorus bombs, chemical bombs, and of course, a lot artillery and other systems, with this method of penetration, you know, this is how they started, it is to penetrate every populated place with such a concentrated blow, but we are mastering the situation, on the one hand, concentration is dangerous, and on the other hand, these are powerful targets for our blows, it is coming, so

we must unfortunately forgive. thank you for participating in the broadcast mykola malomuzh, general of the army of ukraine. and now we will honor the memory of all those who died at the hands of the russian occupiers with a moment of silence. let's honor the memory of the ukrainian military with a moment of silence peaceful citizens of ukraine who died in the war started by russia.
