it's 5 p.m. in ukraine, news time on the spresso tv channel, in the studio of iryna koval, i welcome all viewers and now to the most important events. five civilians were killed and wounded, and there may be more people under the rubble. these are the consequences of the enemy shelling of kupyansk in the kharkiv region - oleg sinigubov, the head of the region, informed. the russians hit the central part of the city with fap-500 aerial bombs. residential buildings, a coffee shop and a church were damaged there. stavtor is one of the victims of the russian attack. the occupiers also shelled the village of ploske velikoburlutska community and in nikopol.

a 61-year-old local woman died in the dnipropetrovsk region, she was killed by the russians, shelling the city with artillery in the afternoon, reported the head of the region serhiy lysak. the military-civilian administration is still clarifying the consequences of the attack. the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelenskyi, called on the leaders of the countries of southeast europe at the two-day summit in albania to unite the defense production facilities. the head of state noted that in ukraine... there are about 500 defense enterprises, but this is not enough to defeat putin, so he suggested to organize a ukrainian-balkan defense forum for the development of cooperation in the field of weapons production, the ukrainian leader also tried to gain support for his vision of peace in ukraine. we want international law and global stability to be based on truly multilateral and... transparent

processes based on the equality of nations, just as everyone deserves peace, everyone can contribute to restoring peace, and i invite you all to participate in the first global peace summit at the level of states, which will take place in switzerland. a familiar technique: the unrecognized transnistria turned to russia, allegedly for help. the so-called deputies of the republic at the congress formed an official letter to the federation council. and the state duma, asking to protect the region from the pressure of moldova. they also appealed to the osce, the cis, the european parliament, the international committee of the red cross and the un secretary general. they call on international institutions to influence the people of chisinau so that they stop allegedly violating their rights and freedoms there. surprisingly, in the hall transparencies in ukrainian. also , some of the meeting participants speak ukrainian. it is no accident that in the grant

of limited blockade measures, we will hear the statement that the effect of some kind of preferential regime for our entrepreneurs has been terminated, and the status of economic agents in all of moldova has been equalized. ukraine received $760 million from japan and norway, the press service of the ministry of finance reported. it was noted there that the funds will be directed to partial compensation for... expenses of the state budget of ukraine not related to in the field of security and defense, in particular, for pension payments, as well as for payments to civil service workers in emergency situations and teachers' wages. ministers of the group of 20 are actively discussing the issue of financing ukraine, in particular the use of income from frozen russian assets, said the head of the german finance ministry, christian lintner. also, according to him, the ministers. agrees that

it is necessary to increase the pressure on russia even more. the use of income from the frozen assets of russia is realistic and legally reliable a move that can also be implemented in the short term, and that's what we're focusing on right now. we have already started work in the european council. so soon i expect a proposal from the european commission on the legal implementation of this idea. the usa and canada handed over equipment to ukrainian border guards to prevent nuclear smuggling. this is special equipment, as well as video surveillance systems and means of communication. the ambassadors of the united states and canada noted that the aid should protect our territory from illegal entry of nuclear weapons materials, as well as to strengthen the security of ukraine's borders. we owe it to the world to help you win this one. it is boring to ensure

the independent future of ukraine. it's a nice way to pay tribute to the strong partnership we 've built over the last few years. years in order to strengthen international security and stability. almost two years in exile from t2. the leading direction of the restoration of channel cases is court proceedings. yes, the chairman of the committee answered the question about turning off the espresso tv channel from t2 digital broadcasting yaroslav yurchyshyn of the verkhovna rada on freedom of speech. he noted that the committee communicates with authorities to find optimal solutions. according to yurchyshyn, the most pressing issue now is the involvement of other tv channels in a single marathon. however, there is no political will for this, especially among the representatives of the presidential team. in principle, it seems to me that it would also

be useful for the authorities to talk now with the editorial offices of the channels that it is advisable to join the single marathon in the format, within the editorial...framework for which you and i are ready to agree there, and it would be a demonstration that the authorities are not afraid of criticism, and in principle correct those inconsistencies or mistakes that were made during the plenum, the beginning of a full-scale invasion, but so far it is a very difficult process. the espresso tv channel continues to collect fpv drones for a separate platoon without pilot aviation complexes of the sapsan state special service of transport. these courageous warriors are active. are conducting combat operations in the donetsk direction, attacking and restraining the enemy. thanks to drones, they successfully destroy a lot of russian equipment, fortifications and manpower, so we have a goal - to collect uah 1 million for flying weapons. we already have more than

uah 75,000 in our accounts. let's accelerate our victory together. such was the news at that time, we will see you in 6 p.m., you can read more news on our website espresso tv, also follow us on social networks and watch us on youtube, congratulations, this is the chronicles of the war with ulga. deer, and i am asking you to join the collection for the 12th separate special forces unit, this is a unit, who is constantly in battles and we are asking you to join the collection for buggies to evacuate the wounded and transport combat kits, as well as car and trench rebs, orebs are very

important to defend against all kinds of enemy drones, please help, it will help a lot save human lives, increase the efficiency of the unit, you see all the data. there is a qr code, a number, join throughout the entire program, it will be hanging in the corner. well, we are now, let's immediately go to the map of the last battles days to see, and then, well, let's actually discuss it all. map of hostilities for the period february 21-28, 2024, consequences of the occupation of ukraine. and the war for control in the sky. on the eastern front , the situation remains critical for the armed forces, especially near chasovoy yar novomykhaivka and the villages west of avdiivka. the avdiiv front is changing dynamically. after the occupation of avdiyivka, the front line west of the city is unstable, and the hostilities

spread 10 km wide. on the one hand , the occupiers are trying to use their numerical advantage and go as far as possible. for this, they introduced new ones to this area. forces, and on the other hand, it is also dangerous for the armed forces to be close to avdiivka, which is located on the commanding heights. the nearest villages of stepove, lastochkine and severne are well shot from there. over the course of a week , the defense forces with deterrence fighting retreated to the west to more advantageous positions where they would not be targeted. currently, such a buffer zone is 3, 3.5 km, the temporary stabilization line of the front is built along the line of the villages of berdychi orli. and thin, but not the fact that the situation it will remain so for a long time: on the outskirts of berdychi and orlivka, the rashists are already conducting assault operations. despite significant losses in aviation, the armed forces of the russian federation continue to bombard ukrainian troops. if earlier

about 50 bombs per day fell on the heads of our heroes, now this number has almost doubled, even the use of air defense does not deter the russians. enemies understand that a window of opportunity has opened in them. which may never be again. the bakhmud front of battles during the yar period and the shelling of kostyantynivka. another consequence of loss avdiyivka began to increase the pressure of the occupiers on the neighboring ones. sections of the front, in particular on bakhmutska. the situation at the approaches to the temporary ravine has become significantly more complicated, the occupiers have taken hold of the eastern outskirts of the village of ivanovske and are trying to move deeper. behind the village opens a direct road to chasiv yar. however , currently ivanovske has become a stumbling block for all mechanized enemy assaults. a similar situation developed further north in bohdanivka, where fighting has also been going on for more than a month on the northern outskirts of the village. bohdanovka will allow you to come up close northern outskirts of chasovoy yar. it is obvious that

the largest after donetsk agglomeration of the cities of slavyansk, kramatorsk and kostiantynivka is a priority target for the rashists, so they are already starting to prepare the ground for their future offensive. for this, they need to depopulate the current center of donetsk region. this explains the shelling of kostiantynka, during which the enemy destroyed 14 buildings at the railway station. in three educational institutions and several administrative buildings. the situation on the ughledar front near novomykhailivka. this week, the defense forces managed to completely stop the enemy's attack on novomykhailivka, despite the fact that the village was attacked from three sides. in addition, the armed forces of the russian federation also stopped the attempts of the armed forces of the russian federation to make their way from maryinka to the south through the village of pobeda and to go to the rear of our soldiers. for several days , the rashists completely occupied pobeda, but for carried out a counterattack and partially drove them out of the village. a little further south, in particular near

dokuchaivsk, as well as south of volnovaga in the village of trudivske, two days in a row the armed forces of ukraine mowed down one and a half hundreds of russians whom the idiot commander wanted for surveillance. a few days later, a similar situation was repeated in the kherson region. the robotyn hell in zaporizhzhia, the entire robotin ledge is a village, the russians attack daily from the western flank. from the south and southeast. for this, they gathered a sufficiently powerful fist. that day, almost four columns of armored vehicles tried to break into the village from the right flank, but most of the vehicles were destroyed by the defense forces. 18 out of 30 armored vehicles during one assault. although the rashists have already stated several times about re-occupation of the village, however , the defense forces firmly hold positions in the center of the village, although they have retreated from several positions around it. air combat changes emphasis. ukraine is preparing to receive the f-16 and at the same time

trying to deter the su-34, which are the carriers of the kabiv, from bombing our positions. in 10 days, ukrainian air defense shot down seven su-34.2 bombers, the latest su-35 fighters, which are one of the biggest threats to the f-16. another serious threat is the combination of an aircraft of long-range radar detection and... control a50 with ppu s-300, it is probably for these reasons that the armed forces together with their allies started a real hunt for this plane, if the first shooting down of 50 in january was a unique historical phenomenon, then the second one near yeisk in the krasnodar territory, a significant day for russia on february 23, put russians in a state of shock, because the event took place 220 km from the front line, and the shot by the armed forces was fired from an even greater... distance, now it is enough for ukraine to aim at one more plane to punch a hole in

the 24-hour reconnaissance activity of the russians, which covers at least all of ukraine east of dnipro. already now, the intensity of work of a50 has significantly decreased, for several days they are simply absent. in the air, a new stage of the war has begun, aimed at squeezing russian aircraft out of the airspace of ukraine, including from the occupied territories. russia. i have a leaky gas station. in a short period of time, military plants and oil industry facilities were burning in russia. in lipetsk , a part of the novolypetsk metallurgical plant of vizhevsk, which is the center of the arms industry, exploded. a large fire broke out in the building where uavs were produced. in defense plant in the city of biysk, located in distant altai, powerful explosions caused a fire at a defense plant specializing in chemical technologies. the least possible were explosions at one of the largest russian oil refineries in volgograd, as well as a fire at an oil depot in

kursk region. as a result of systematic attacks on the oil industry of russia, the terrorist country banned the export of oil for six months in order to be able to direct it to military needs. namely, the export of oil was the biggest source of currency, with which putin bought weapons all over the world the world we win daily, death to enemies. so, a rather unique event, i would say, and such a powerful one, this is actually a plane crash that took place within 10 days of 10 planes. well, of course, it wasn’t like that one plane a day, but you can see how it happened, in principle, if you can , show us ours, you see, well, that is, two planes a day, three, then, well, actually these are all 10 days, that's enough, enough of such powerful events took place in the sky, and i

hope that we can already reach us now to join yuriy ignat, the spokesman of the air force of the armed forces of ukraine, and it would be interesting to find out, if not what is happening, then how can we proceed, what can we predict further, because this is really an important thing and one that affects actually directly also on the battlefield, yes, i congratulate you, mr. yuriy, yes, good day, congratulations, well, let's start with this right away. letakopada, well, it falls and falls, we will not specify why and how, but it is a little interesting here, maybe i think the audience even has a different opinion, can we hope that such a letakopada will continue, well, because, you know, it just happened suddenly , it worked, so what do you say here and there, well , you know, not without this, not without this, it was possible and the dawn happened, because luck in

military affairs, it also has a serious role plays because it is necessary to be found. time in the right place is also necessary, well, but for that you need experience, skill, planning of operations and so on, so everything that is managed by those small forces today, which are today in the air force, well, it is definitely, we really need to thank those people, well very seriously who carries out operations, who plans them, in particular , you know that without the commander of the air forces , such operations clearly do not take place, because, well , everything is kept very, well, very small, small circle. knows how our means are used today to shoot down such equipment as the su-34, su-35, a50 and so on and so on, so we have few such tools capable of destroying russian aviation at long distances, but thanks to a combination of

factors actions, well-planned work of luck manages to achieve such results. i want to emphasize that it is not for the first time, there is already such a series of downed planes, it was also in odesa, mykolaiv region, it was in the northern direction, when it was possible to land russian planes, of course, not everything is recognized by the enemy there, they say that we are somewhere there a little they say, they were shot down there , they were not shot down there, well, as objective control shows, as we later see the obituaries in their pubs, then everything is confirmed later, accordingly, well , in the end, as they say that... in the a50, they shot down their own air defense, well, we don't mind, let him knock it down, it's such a thing, but it's interesting, you know, when the first one was broken, in the winter it was an a50, and now you feel some kind of difference, well there, for example, it is bigger, well, there is some kind of gap between when a new aircraft is brought out, well, how

in general, do you feel any visible results, they, they immediately they took the plane out, of course, they took it out, well, for a few days, maybe a day and a half later, another one appeared and began to fly no longer as close as the one, it already flew away and began to perform tasks somewhere in the rostov region and descending below, in the air space above the waters of the sea of ​​azov, but still further south, because they understand that it is dangerous to fly close, and they need to fly closer so that their air radar can see further in order to ... explore more of the territory of ukraine, airspace, our air defense systems somewhere to fix there and so on, so for them this distance, which they moved further, limited the distance in scanning the territory of our state, this is how it happened, of course, another plane arrived and began to perform tasks nearby with it, as always, il-22, but now

, after the downing of this a50, we no longer observe these planes at all. so far in the airspace, well, there is no specific information at the moment, well, it definitely wasn’t there yesterday, this morning too, i didn’t see that the a50 was present there, that is, they thought about it, stopped performing the tasks of this area with this special equipment, maybe it is not advisable now to use it, to operate it in this region, that is why such things also happen with planes that carry out their own bombardment of the territory with guided air base the same thing, pilots, when they understand, well, not only pilots, their leadership there, that there is a threat here, accordingly, they will refuse to perform tasks in this region, they will, they will not risk themselves . bots that can in the end complete the task a little by dragging it 10 km further and dropping bombs from there that will no longer fly, maybe not at the target, such cases have also been

recorded, well, everyone has their own fear and so on, so even a psychological factor on the russian pilots who were there, who saw what this is all happening, he is certainly present , well, it is difficult to say here now, i would still like to hear from you, because our analysts note that... however, so far we do not observe such a direct decrease in activity, the dumping of cabs on our positions, as if even in the area of ​​avdiivka, well, there is a little reinforcement, or somehow you also record it that way, well, that is, after such a series of downing of planes, we can see , after all, that these bombers have started to fly less often, or so far we we don't see it, they fly, but they fly less, you will understand correctly what they are... and for several days of attacks and bombardments of avdiyivka , they spent a huge number of air bombs, air bombs, well, guided air bombs, there was a huge number of planes, and therefore

the actual intensity of combat work was serious, well, accordingly , they lost in that period, a larger number , a large amount of equipment, of course , after our troops finally withdrew from this settlement, which the enemy actually completely destroyed, there is no living place there... there is, well, the enemy continued to use aviation, the attacks by anti-aircraft guns continue, but many times less, here the intensity in this front line, of course, has decreased, but still the enemy continues to do it. tell me, can you estimate in some way when this might be applied, well, for example, there, i don't know, the reduction of the ability of the russians to use kabi, that's what it depends on. that is, how can we record that we will achieve such a goal and really, well, the use of kabi will stop, for example, well, it can be estimated somehow,

i have already partially told you that it is necessary to the enemy refused to carry out the mission, when they lose a certain amount of aircraft, well a certain amount, how many would you say, 20, 30, how many of these planes do they have, you know, a normal state 5% will lose planes and refuse to perform, will understand that this is the that this is the way will and will lose, you can be left with nothing at all, and these are also modern planes, 134, 135, these are the main planes that they have in service, which they, unfortunately, managed to build, in this way, predict on which, on at what percentage will they stop it's difficult, and even more so, russia continues to manufacture, don't forget that last year they also delivered su-30-ti and su-34 in not such a large quantity, but still they were delivered to the troops, plus they have some export plans. well, that's why everything depends on how many weapons, long-range anti-aircraft armor systems we will really have , what ukraine is talking about today, the whole world is saying that ukraine needs more systems, especially

air defense, in order to, well, shells are definitely , it is what restrains the enemy in his yes, offensive actions, but still , air defense will deter russian aviation and helicopters and planes, which will not be able to perform the task, knowing what is here... the system yes something a little ee yes oh you can talk, i think, appeared the communication is already normal, and i have already finished my opinion , well, i say, we need more systems that can deter russian aircraft, the main task of the air force is to prevent the appearance of russian aircraft, to deter them in our airspace, therefore to prevent they crept in here, no, no we have the right, well, you know , this story is certainly ungrateful, to count the planes that... it’s okay, but do you have one or the other, do you know the data, how many russians in general have such new sus, well, more modern ones and su 34 , the su-35

is such an aircraft, there were about a hundred, maybe a little more than a hundred, according to which , according to the most recent information available, there are less than the su-35, the su-35 is even newer, it carries out its own cover, he covers, 34 aviation extermination cover is called, so... well, in general, if you take into account all the aviation there combat aircraft, which they have in russia, it is about 1,500 units, which, well, they do not perform tasks directly in our direction, in the ukrainian direction, i mean, these are planes that are scattered throughout the territory of russia, so here the groups are about 300 aircraft of various types, these are the ones we called two sut4, su-35, also su-25-th, su-24-th, mig-29, su-27, su-30, e, e-e, i think i have already mentioned su-25, and you know that they also have strategic aircraft tu-22m3, tu-95, tu-160, these are

army aviation helicopters too. we take into account there are k-52, mi-24, mi-35, this is the aviation group that was located around our borders, i mean both belarus and russia, not at the borders themselves, but at a certain distance, there are about 300 planes and approximately the same number of helicopters at various sites, well, yes, this is such an artificial destruction, it is difficult to knock everything out of... yes, i want to talk a little more about the missile and drone attacks on ukraine, well there is still such a difference, we observe it as citizens, but how do you observe it if you compare the eyes, for example, the last two months with what was in november-december, with what was at this time last year, how has changed, well, if

you can say so, some approach of the movement. to the attacks on ukraine, how their capabilities have changed , in general, what useful conclusions can be drawn, such a question can be answered in two hours, well, yes, i understand, nothing has changed here, especially, they are attacking us, they have attacked us and so far that will attack, unfortunately, our capabilities are increasing in the plan the creation of mobile fire groups, there are certainly certain problems with ammunition, we understand this perfectly, not only with ground, but also with anti-aircraft guided missiles, precisely... mobile war groups allow us to save on anti-aircraft guided missiles, which, until the previous question, restrain the russian aviation at a certain distance, and they cannot be allowed here, well, russia is using ballistic weapons more often, we see that several units of already proven iranian ee, not iranian, i’m sorry, north korean missiles have appeared, in relation to iranian head guru told us that there is no such

information, here. that's why russia strikes traditionally with shaheds, a few dozen shaheds actually fly there, well, from 10 or more , kh-59, s-300 missiles in the front-line regions, well, there are already several iskanders at the point where they see fit, unfortunately, well, they strike, namely these north korean missiles, well, we saw their use once. have we noticed any more, that is, or is this application just so massive now? we don't know about the types of wholes that fly just now said a few missiles were proven, the rest we don't know what targets are flying only after we examine the wreckage and well, not the air force , the air force only sees points on markers on the monitors, yes, ballistics are flying, what kind of ballistics it is, it is unknown, you can only find out.

then, when it falls, we will see the debris, well, not us, certain specialists who are engaged in the study of these debris, then we can already say for sure what it was, because the parameters of the ballistic flight are actually the same, say, north korean missiles, well, somehow well, they just differ from the fact that russia can now apply its own, well, actually, that is, worse, better, well, in this regard, i just answered you, we can see it when we examine the government. well, i'm just asking, maybe some conclusions have already been drawn , there were several applications, there was a statement from the prosecutor general's office, or the prosecutor general's office or the kharkiv prosecutor's office, i don't remember now, and in this way it was proved that it was there, but how is it there , to what extent their parameters differ, i think not too much, well , maybe a slightly increased range, well, maybe some more points, but i want to say that defense industry, what is north korean,

what is this... well, let me, yes, yes, thank you, thank you, yuriy ignat, spokesman for the air force command of ukraine, thank you for coming to us joined, well, actually, we have a pause now, and then we will continue the conversation, no one is safe from burst pipes, and even a small leak can cost you tens of thousands. for repair unpack tv introduces superprotect insulating tape, a strong, rubberized, waterproof tape that instantly stops any leakage, and the price is only from uah 99. superprotect has a triple thickness and is treated with a very strong adhesive. an instant, super strong and hermetic connection is guaranteed, and even the strongest leaks are no problem. a hole in the bucket.
