and of course, these are half-buckets, which make it possible to knock out the enemy in the most difficult, most inaccessible places for other means. we understand that in parallel with the combat operations on the front line, engineering works are ongoing in the vicinity of the temporal ravine, and lyaevlash has already officially announced this, so we can talk about it. how powerful is this unfolding activity and how much it can support. our defenders, actually the military, who hold the defense, the principle of war, it is simple enough, wants to live, digs, everything, everything is simple enough, and the preparation of defense lines, fortifications, structures, engineering barriers, which includes many components, this is an integral part of the component of war, at the moment the defense line is being prepared quite actively, as far as forward positions are concerned. unfortunately,

it's not always possible to get the necessary things to make a normal shelter, so quite often, guys make shelters from what they have, using tactics that the enemy basically uses, that is, when you fly with many of them at once transitions in order to be able to stay there massing of the artillery enemy , that is why the preparation and arrangement of both the most advanced positions by our military and , accordingly, the line of defense is underway, ugh, mr. yuri, to the south of your section of the front there are some enemy advances, deep steate is being applied, we are waiting for verification from the general staff, and regarding of the temporal ravine as another target in the bakhmut direction, these strikes that they lead to the north and south of the temporal ravine have... a logistical continuation, i am talking

about this route, well at least there is a road along which they would like to move, bakhmut-konstyantynivka, that is, i mean the frontal strikes that go north from bohdanivka and south of ivanivska, this is an idea to do something similar, as with avdiivka, to take chasiv yar, which itself is on the heights, in its grip , whether this is not traceable, look, the principle, for sure, of any military action is to take it. into the operational environment and then knock out the middle, we can talk about it, but this is how it happens, this is how the enemy acts, and we , during counteroffensive operations, acted according to a similar algorithm, which concerns the city itself times, why is it important for the enemy, you said absolutely correctly, this is the commanding height, in the event that the enemy takes the commanding height, the agglomeration of the cities of kostyantynka, druzhkivka to kramitorsk, all this will be under...

significant fire influence of the enemy, unfortunately, but at the moment, i believe that the enemy will not succeed in knocking out the city of chasivar. but yesterday druzhkivka and i spoke, mr. yury, there they say that they already hear cannonades, well, apart from the fact that there are occasional flights, well, their moods are a bit chaotic and even sometimes panicked, but i wanted you to say: so that my friend heard and at least understood what to prepare for, yes, my friend, she is under constant fire, but there are missiles of the enemy's s-300 type for the most part, and unfortunately, this city , which has been destroyed by the war in many places , as for the artillery , nothing has changed in the last period of time, the enemy both did not have the opportunity to shoot, and... no, uh,

people need to remember the following, that the war continues, unfortunately, in full height, and one way or another the opponent tries to solve the task set before him, that is , to destroy ukrainian statehood, to destroy ukrainians, to occupy our territories , accordingly, if the intensity of shelling increases, it is necessary not to neglect the safety rules and to occupy the necessary places, the necessary shelters in order to stay alive, because... we can be only effective when alive. mr. yuriy, quite often now we hear from the military that drones are good, but fat drones are generally great, but we are silent about baba yaga, because we have already watched it, it is already some kind of military epic from the side of the enemy, so what are these fat drones, how are they better than ordinary fat drones, heavy, i... and you mean

baba yaga bombers, probably the first time i heard the expression fat drones, well that's it very different tactics of application. there is a difficult question, maybe it is correct to a certain extent, there is no systematic clarification work, which droshu answers when we collect on fpdrun, i often have people there who do not quite understand drones, but donate everything, they say , listen, well, we gave you 20 pieces, hmm, why did you run out of them so quickly, such an intensity is crazy, i say friends, it’s the same, well, when you passed on maviks of your time, now you continue to do it, mavik lives on. a little longer there , a week and a half on average at the front, because it is a reconnaissance tool, manufactured many times, and the f5 drones are comedy drones that fly in one direction and explode together with the ammunition, they explode directly with the ammunition, i mean directly with the ammunition , directly in one direction, but it is considered cheap in terms of overall costs

for ammunition and for war , as for night bombers, these are night bombers - quadcopters that make it possible to bring powerful ammunition deep enough into the operational space of the enemy and destroy various categories of targets, starting from manpower, destroying the dugouts in which they are hiding, and ending with lightly armored, armored vehicles, artillery and technical means, the defense forces actively began to use night bombers in early 2023 , by the end of the year a lot had changed things, first... there were more manufacturers and more modifications, and objectively the means that were at the beginning of the 23rd year and at the end are different means in terms of effectiveness of use, and during this period of time were destroyed, i am not afraid, that hundreds of units

of enemy targets, of different categories, as i said earlier, that is why ukraine is the absolute favorite at the moment, er, and we have an absolute advantage in these means in the air for two. how hard is it to bring them back, what is the return rate, shall we say, how viable are they, their lives? any the uav means is an expense, there are many factors, the enemy's anti-aircraft defense, they shot it down at the expense of the enemy's anti-aircraft means, sometimes it happens differently, i will put three dots, that's why it's an expense, on average, on average, one board, nocturnal somewhere up to two weeks, uh, in terms of survivability. application, but during that time it performs its tasks effectively enough, moreover , i will say that there is a constant modification, the boards that flew yesterday, due to the fact that the enemy is also developing its means of radio-electronic warfare, tomorrow they can already not not to fly, but communication with the manufacturers

of the front, where certain , shall we say, refinements, certain modernizations constantly appear, and again our barts pierce the air, we perform tasks, for example, our unit every night, despite the weather conditions, we still find corridor, the opportunity to fly, to make an impression on the enemy. mr. yuriy, this war, the battle of drones is also a little turning into the fight of the rebs, but there is one moment, we remember when they called on all ukrainians that everyone can now buy the rebs, does it have any effect on the possibility and efficiency of launching drones when, for example, somewhere near the line... the front near our location, everyone starts setting their drones at different powers, at different ranges, do you not mind, or have they adjusted this process when it's all centralized, and the military coordinates this activity properly,

depending on which brigade, in our 92nd assault brigade, systematic work is underway on fixing. for every rap that goes into the divisions, it's very important, because really friendly electronic warfare tools often enough affect what suppresses our clears that we use to send our drones towards the enemy, so there is a process in the brigade, and when there is some unknown signal, from somewhere, this also happens sometimes, eh friends, volunteers. e-e was handed over to a military man who for some reason believes that he is in danger there in a certain place, he periodically turns it on in order to calm himself, although he is not in any danger, there are such things, there are which they help to identify and after that

a group is sent to that place, which carries out explanatory work, the person is added to the general coordinate system of the rap means of the brigade, and thus no longer hinders and interferes. but this is a natural evolutionary path, when new means appear, their synchronization in the general system of application always takes some time, we see that on... on this part of the front and which concerns from avdiivka to bakhmut, there are serious regroupings, such as just to conclude that you manage to see from the sky that are they pulling up, who are they pulling up, or are they pulling equipment to the front line, or have they already decided that it is enough to burn it with columns? no, the adversary will continue to strike at the assault operations, will attract equipment and will drive them along those routes, because the task must be... completed in the russian federation to re-elect dictator putin. by any means, they need to

show positive results for ukraine. therefore, they will be driven to slaughter. we, for our part , must be fully prepared to effectively kill all who come after us storm. accordingly, the system work is conducted, in particular the investigation, will not be explained, but the vast majority of the time we know. when, how, from where the enemy will strike, and if we are informed, if we see the enemy, then accordingly we can destroy him effectively, so the work continues. mr. yury, thank you for your participation in the program, thank you for your service, an effective and successful road cutter, we wish you, yury fedorenko, commander of the achilles 92nd assault drone battalion of the separate assault brigade named after koshovo, tamana ivan sirk. this is the situation at the front, and how? the situation in the defense and what to defend and what the long-term prospects are,

welcome to our airwaves. good morning, greetings to you, greetings to our viewers. we want to tell about you. new, strange , new for us, at least, maybe you already know and heard more about it, the flight paths of drones, bukovyna, khmelnytskyi, but not from odeshchyna. monitoring channels showed that all this was happening over moldova, though kisheniv says, we don't know anything, we didn't see anything, we didn't hear anything, and also in the north rivne region suddenly turned red, it could have flown in from khmelnytskyi region, but they wrote that it was belarusians flying from the north. indeed, this attack with the use of drones, which took place on the night of the 27th, had certain peculiarities, that is, there were several groups of drones, and they were indeed moving along routes that had not been used before, there it concerns primarily the use of the airspace of moldova , when one of

the drones flew into the territory of moldova and then he went to ours from there. was destroyed by air defense forces , a total of 13 of these attack drones were launched by the enemy, 11 of them were shot down, as were two of the six missiles that were used to strike ukraine, but back to drones, russia is indeed starting to use such provocative maneuvers in order to surely feel the nerves and capabilities of moldova, although... moldova actually for some reason ignored this threat and said that such drones on its territory, on its the airspace did not fly , probably in this way, limiting itself to the risks of further diplomatic relations with the russian federation, but in any case , we understand that russia still used cruise missiles that moved towards poland literally 50 kilometers away, and

turned around near the borders of poland, then they again moved to our territory, just as they are now with moldova. russia uses such broader methods of influencing the consciousness, well , in particular, of the same moldovan military, so in any case we understand that such there are risks, but it is good that a significant number of these drones were destroyed precisely by means of ukrainian air defense. mr. serhiy, we spoke with the kramatorsk direction, with our military, they say they added some shells, the ratio is different, not one to 12, one to seven, but it is missing. says: well, first of all, we would like good long-range missiles, and here emmanuel macron yesterday becomes the hero of the information day, he says that he is creating a coalition, long-range missiles, all this immediately after quite nervously the press service of scholz answered a specific question, when the taurus will appear, well, what about

macron's interception of the scholz initiative, is it more pr, is it still talking about a real... set of long-range missiles for ukraine in sufficient quantity, and not are there three things one at a time? well, i think that we should definitely be more realistic than optimistic, because when we talk about this statement by macron, it seems to me to be more of an informational and propaganda one. i was even surprised when i read the message in the morning it will pass that we are talking about medium and long-range missiles, this is probably either a translation error or some things that... i will not understand macron, because in our country now, to be honest, the missiles are divided like this, relatively speaking, up to 500 km - this is a short range, 500, 100 is a medium range, 1,300, 3000 km, this is relatively speaking a medium range and more than 300 km is a long range, if we are talking about macron creating a coalition with a range, with

the possibility of transferring missiles to us there medium long range, it means, relatively speaking, more than 100 km. it’s clear that the europeans actually have such missiles, if there are any, they are more likely such powerful cruise missiles, which in fact, well, rely on the potential of the americans more than the europeans, because now the same missiles storm shadow, scalp, they have a range for own use, 500 europeans there 60 km, they are supplied to us with limited capabilities up to 300 km. if macron is serious enough, it means that to begin with they have to lift the restrictions on the missiles that are supplied to prove their range to at least 600. this will be a step, and as for other statements related to the fact that macron takes the initiative from scholz, then scholz actually, well, from the taurus point of view

, remains so unchanged in his approaches, he says that the transfer of these missiles is not at the right time, and we do not want to get involved in it, and says that rather ukraine needs other things, in particular, ammunition, equipment, and actually with these new aid packages, he is just... and here are macron's statements that they are considering sending nato ground troops troops to ukraine, it is also from this area of ​​political pr, can it be real, why am i asking this, because at one time the serbs and the russians in the balkans also believed that they would not do anything, the un is impotent, we will fight where we want , even in croatia, even in bosnia, they won't do anything, and then there was nato and it was. no one believed in stopping the balkan war either, so is it serious or not serious about nato ground troops in ukraine? well, i think that this is more of an informational step that adds

attention to the event that took place in paris, where there were 20 prime ministers of different countries. i 'm speaking conventionally, well, i understand that if the europeans are now hesitating to transfer certain types of long-range weapons, then understand what kind of pressure they will receive. among their society, if a decision is made to send contingents to a territory that is not part of the nato security zone, then it is more politics than the real readiness of nato countries to fight on our territory, europeans and americans are not needed, we need weapons, we have enough people, so to speak, we lack weapons in order to to carry out effective combat operations. mr. serhiy, what about those gripens, because if the swedish opposition demands that... the gripens be handed over as soon as possible, we understand that the gripens would ideally fit together with the german taurus, then these are also some political moments, or is it sweden prompts

the germans to cooperate and encourages in such a way that this, is it possible that we simply cannot use the flu for some other purposes? well , the question of any aircraft is not really a question of a preliminary statement, a question of preparation, logistics and so on, really is considered that gripens have optimal conditions for use, it is a light aircraft, it can take off there even on highways, but we understand that the issue of preparation, transfer of the availability of aircraft in sweden, these issues have already been discussed, and in this fragment there was only that that our military pilots have familiarized themselves with the capabilities of these aircraft, the question of full-fledged training, it does not stand now, and this means that if we now... once we say that let's still work on gripens, it is theoretically possible, but we will see, how will it happen on in practice, because we are now talking about gripens and french mirage 2000

-action aircraft, that is, in fact, now another discussion is starting around the world again, despite the fact that the main emphasis should still be on the f-16, so that we still, well , at least in one direction achieve... progress, and not talk everywhere and remain without planes, so for now i am a supporter of the fact that, well, the bet was made on f16 and then maybe even on 15 on by the way, but in any case, the plane is a preparation, the second plane is a platform, the next question is about weapons, if the taurus are delayed, then conditionally speaking, the meaning of gripans also disappears, if we are talking about the fact that there will be transfers of a significant number of long-range missiles to the kshtalna. like scalpa there or stormshadow, then the question of expanding our fleet of carriers, whether we can add 124, this is precisely the question that is currently on

the agenda, mr. sergey, if it is only about the f-16 at the moment, and if on to emphasize this, whether these planes will be able to, which we will get, take off from what we have, because we understand that we have to build a completely new infrastructure, new lanes in the conditions of war. this is probably such a task a little unrealistic and it is not known whether it is appropriate, will they be able to work on what we have? in fact, this issue has been repeatedly raised, our military is currently preparing a number of, as i understand, airfields that can be used for f-16s. during the exercises before the war, by the way, there were events when both f-16s and f-15s were able to land on airfields there. ukraine is not in this there is, let's say, no particular problem. the question is to ensure the safety of these litovychy at the expense of anti -aircraft defense systems, because already now the russian

federation is betting on maximally... reducing the potential of our so-called anti-aircraft defense aviation at the expense of these strikes on airfields and the like the hunt for the f16 will of course be the first such task for the russians to ensure such propaganda and combat effects , the ukrainians appeared in the 16th, we shot them down there or did not give them the opportunity to work in the air then this will be precisely with one of the elements of russian propaganda, and we, in turn, have to find options when these will really strengthen our potential, first of all destroy cruise missiles, then possibly enemy planes, in order to make it impossible to use the same missiles that russia is actively using now on the front line. mr. serhiy, there is a slight feeling in the state, last year on the 23rd we talked about it in our studio, we listened, now it is repeated, but already at the official level, the permanent representative of israel to the un, gilad erdan, here he says that israel is working on transferring

early systems to ukraine. warning, this is protection against missile and drone strikes, well, what do these words mean, working on it, that is , working on it, it's another year to wait, is it something real and how effective is it? well, in reality, it is always difficult, because we remember the history that there were attempts to purchase a complex of anti-aircraft defense, it was not successful, then we went to the possibility of supplying the reb system, which was supplied through other countries, we partially received these reb systems, then there were statements that israel would help us provide an information system around kyiv, which would sectorally monitor the possible directions of enemy attacks and provide alerts only in those areas that are subject to attacks, i do not know the continuation of this project, although there is about it it was said loudly enough, now,

if there is an opportunity, relatively speaking... to take advantage of certain technological capabilities of israel, then this would be a certain step forward, because there are many interesting developments, but now still the defense industry of israel, due to political restrictions, is rather restrained in responding to all our proposals, which are repeated from time to time, so i think that it is necessary, well, i think , to knock on this door, we will see the result, maybe something has changed in israel in its attitude to our war with by the russian federation. mr. sergey, we have one minute left. ukrainian shahedi, about which komychyn also stated that ground drones will be actively used in ukraine in the 24th year, what is the number and whether we are financially we will be able to buy what we can produce, because from this statement it appears that the defense-industrial complex can produce more than ukraine has the money for, that is, whether they will give us money from the west or whether the west will buy us,

we have one minute, actually , well... i have a partial attitude towards reeds, let's say, as towards statements that sometimes have more of an informational and pr effect, in some areas there is a challenge in this, from the point of view of money, money is currently lacking, because now in fact even the leading companies that make drones, drones contracted by only 15%. now the potential of producers has grown so much that, relatively speaking, we cannot find the money to fully use their potential. but this is just the current challenge, then it means that we have to order the most effective systems, i hope that the ministers of techprom and the ministry of defense will now understand these priorities, but will not delay orders, because now this problem really still exists, we have two months there is no order for the company. thank you, mr. sergey. serhii zgurets, the director of the information and consulting company defense express was with us. it is now approaching 9:00, this is the time, the moment when we honor the memory of all those who

died at our hands. russian occupiers, all ukrainian military and civilians, all those who defended and defend, defended the ukrainian land from attackers. let's observe a moment of silence in memory of the ukrainian military and civilian citizens of ukraine who died in the war started by russia.
