well, it is quite possible, they even almost completed another railway there, a third such logistical artery, but it is still a big logistical shoulder and you cannot get it quickly, during the offensive you need to be very fast, well, and the northern direction, it is not known whether they will be from that side offensive actions, because after all, with belarus, with lukashenko, there are, as i understand it, the russians, even putin, have certain difficulties there, let's put it this way, so it remains entirely from a military point of view... that they will try to advance , which exactly it will be directions? well, i think that this offensive has already begun, and it won't be like that at the end of may, as a call to classes and they have started offensive actions, most likely they will simply strengthen them, they are mobilizing, many more people are planning mobilizing, they are trying to create at least two more armies, not counting the other brigades or corps that they planned to create there, their defense minister said that,

so i am sure that they will be simple as long as they are forming it, these hostilities, especially during the time of yara kupinsky direction, rather than that the holidar direction, it will continue and no, like a click , the big forces moved and left, no, they will just constantly press and strengthen, well, they already use such tactics, so to think that they will do something like this, well, why, so far, it brings little success, but they have local success. and from their logic, from their tactics, from their combat statutes, it is simply necessary to increase the pressure, then the promotion will be more significant, most likely they will do so, therefore, i i believe that these offensive actions will reach their peak in june, that is, it will be the maximum pressure from their side, but they will not begin immediately at the end of may, they will be constantly intensified from today, depending on how much the russians if we manage to...

mobilize people and add more equipment, ammunition, well, everything that is necessary for the offensive, most likely this will happen. i can assume that kyrylo budanov, when he made his forecast, assumed that there is a redeployment of certain there are russian units there, there is some movement of them there, and from here it is more or less clear what they are aiming at. and the second question, this is probably, now you can call their actions, such an attempt to come to some certain. boundaries from which they could, well, there more or less there , make some throws to some certain cities, but it is most likely possible that this is what is meant, yes, i did not say about it, but it seemed obvious to me, it is obvious, of course, in that among them , they strengthen offensive actions where they have the greatest concentration of manpower, well, forces means, people and equipment, it is to hide a large number of troops, well, even before it was extremely difficult, but now with space development, well, it is almost impossible. that's why we know very well how

they move, where they try to concentrate, well, that's why mr. budanov made conclusions based on the information he has, whether it can change, so they, that they learned to do more or less well in russian, move it a relatively large number of troops along the front line, that is, they can transfer from the city to city, and what you say is that they want to seize some bridgehead, well, a conditional bridgehead, from which they will be able to carry out further offensive actions, when a large number will join. zone, well, this too, from a military point of view, it is quite correct, yes, this is usually done, when an offensive action is taken, a certain, certain place is obtained, where you can then quickly pull up forces and means and continue to try to advance further. well , by the way, you said an interesting thing about the fact that the russians were somehow able to move a certain amount quite successfully military front line, and on the one hand, we constantly see such stories when the russians.

they collect a certain amount of armored vehicles there, they try to advance somewhere in some direction, they break something, sometimes they manage to advance, but the very fact that they manage to collect this armored vehicle near the front line and start an offensive with it means that they somehow or our drones, which do not see this cluster and , accordingly, do not destroy them even in the place of this cluster, are jamming. well, or just for us there is nothing to destroy it, because, for example, let's look at such things, there were our statements, but just recently we destroyed them near some gas station, the powerful rebovsky complex, it seems, right there he was refueling there and we destroyed it, that means , that we at least saw him, on the other hand, the russians also said that they managed to destroy them as far as kharkov district, when they stopped... our

complex and they aimed there, and it is obvious that this was not the work of the agency, but that most likely , the interaction of a drone of some kind reconnaissance drone and their artillery. and here is the question, why don't we destroy them, these shock fists, well, after all, there are some, what is your answer to this, well, here it is obvious, again, the question is almost rhetorical, because they are on that distances where we cannot finish off our artillery or mlrs, a missile with drones is not an option, yes, no, well , drones, drones are already destroying tanks, well, armor when they are already advancing. of the front, which, well, these are mostly phividrons, which are controlled by the operator, he is far from, he is not can fly 100 km away, well, it will simply reach the horizon line, simply put, the signal, well, it will simply not be visible, and the operator will not be able to control, so these

f-buckets are a very good thing, but it is, well, but still artillery we need it in any case without it, nothing technology is possible in the laws of physics, it is simply impossible to see that electromagnetic... certain purity was bent behind the horizon line, well, this is the so-called blind zone, this or there is a mountain, a mountain, so that it bypasses, well, that's why these are so blind areas, and there for us where their accumulation is large equipment, well, a relatively large accumulation of equipment, but we know that it is there, and they begin to move according to their battle statutes, they move in a column, right before the battle, they deploy, deploy there in a certain battle order, and we, when they ... they go to a distance where we can strike, well, remember all the latest news, how many columns were destroyed, i don’t mean the beginning of the war, but a week ago, two weeks ago, well, when they approach already close, where we can to get them, we destroy them, and the fact that they are there are piling up, we know it very well, there is no need to treat anyone here, that we are missing

a cluster of wasps somewhere, no, this, it is visible from the satellite, the information from which we receive it, it is impossible to hide it, let's pass the ravine for a little while . as if we will return to it later, but i still want to ask you, right now in the area there, well, actually near avdiyivka, its russian occupation forces have captured pervomaiske in the donetsk region, well, that is, they are advancing further, and this is how they are advancing in the direction dwarves, well, that is, i think, these at least the places should be more or less familiar to you, and let's put it this way, this is the road to pokrovsk and this... this is what budanov was talking about, the danger for pokrovsk, how is this area in general after, well, the capture of avdiivka and their attempts to advance from there, that is, what, what is emerging there now from your point of view, it was obvious that they will

advance there, the fact is that we they are advancing there, in fact, they have not yet reached our line of defense, which should be there , there should be a defense line 10 kilometers west of avdiivka, because... avdiivka - this is the dominant height, and accordingly, it is good that you show the map, if there was a map where you can see the relief of the area, then we will see that the next hills, something, it is located 5-7 km from yavdiivka, where the lake is already a little , well, pay attention, you see , it makes sense to build a defense line there, because we use the relief of the area, this is how a defense line is usually made, fortifications are not built in a pit, where there are dominant heights or simply heights. fortifications are being built there, build them in a pit, well, no one does, it is not a credit to a student who would have told this at the military, some kind of training, so we expected that they would advance there in order to complete the construction of these lines for us, in order to pull up what is needed there to hold the defense, of course we conducted military operations, but with from the very

beginning it was quite clear that they would advance further beyond avdiivka, because there is a lowland, if avdiivka is full of leaves, then around, of course, they are not full... to meet them in such a way that they will not be able to advance 100 to 200 m there, here it's just us, we just leave in an organized way, there's no point there, yet time, it is not a defeat, it is not something bad, we simply withdraw to more convenient positions and withdraw, disrupt and hold the enemy, do not allow him to advance quickly to those places where we have already built or are completing ours. well, if you combine the fact that they also became active in the area of ​​mariyanka pobeda, then in principle, all this is like a kind of preparation for the attack

on ughledar, judging by everything, this is what i wanted to say, maryanka is a little different, maryanka is already trying to get to the corner from the north, the blow is a very convenient position for us, it is again a small height, and here are the columns that were approaching from the east, we were there several times, they suffered great losses in equipment, and already ... strength as well, so head on ugledar , they are not capable, that is why they are trying to enter through marinka from the north, well , let's see how they will succeed, i think they will not succeed, thank you oleksiy hetman, thank you for joining us, well, then we have to go on a break, after the break let's talk more objectively about what is happening in the temporal area yaru, so wait for this moment. what is bahmud? bahmud is a place of fear and

united by football, stronger together! join the ranks of the 100th separate mechanized brigade of the armed forces of ukraine, protect your own! the result of their work is our safety. they, the boys from volyn, proved that everyone can be a warrior, strong in spirit, appreciate the ability to stand side by side with brothers, until the holy victory. anyone who pilots a uav understands. it, prepares, treats, repairs, rolls kilometers of roads, fills piles of documents, significantly strengthens those who cover the enemy with heavy fire and return meter by meter our native land, join the ranks of the hundredth separate mechanized brigade of the armed forces of ukraine. let's stick together. so, let's return to the overview of the combat operations, and we were joined by mykola raptor, the chief sergeant of the intelligence unit of the rubizh brigade of the national guard of ukraine. i congratulate you, mr. mykola. greetings from the studio, greetings from the audience. well, i want to

to say that actually, you are now in the bakhmud direction, i call on you to help your unit with equipment for night work for the scouts of the rubizh brigade, we need, well , appropriate funds, and there is such an ambitious goal - uah 3,500,000, mr. mykola. will tell in more detail what exactly they would like, well, what exactly would they like to use these donations for? er, look, the moments that can allow us to fight better, to do our job better, these are fpv drones, and mavic-type drones, drones with the ability to push the enemy positions at night, this is also the same repair of cars, which, unfortunately, break down,

as the enemy inflicts a very strong powerful blow, especially... with kababs and his artillery along our logistics routes, here he is, he blows them to pieces and this makes our logistics too difficult for us, and drags us further and further to the front-line zones, in connection with which we have to, of course, do much more routes now on foot than we could have done on account. road transport, but also for night sets vision, for thermal imaging devices, laser targets, pointers - all this equipment is very important, all these devices would greatly help us in the performance of our task and improve, well, improve the destruction

of the enemy force, well... if you look at the statistics of collisions , then the one submitted by the general staff, it can be seen there that almost half of all the attacks recorded are in the area, well, in the area of ​​bakhmut, all this is happening around the temporal ravine, that is, your direction is now, in principle, the most active, and there is the most as if like a rush, well, that's with on the one hand, on the other hand, we all understand why this is happening. because, in principle , this is a height that the enemy very much wants to capture, but tell me now about the last week, that is, what is it that indicates that there is more use of aviation, or on the contrary, less, that with the use of drones, well , that is, what exactly what is the most relevant thing going on right now? well, in the last

week the enemy has really... er increased his air strikes er in razz, er, he now has a very strong er artillery, as i said before, breaking all the paths of logistical routes for us, which in principle made it a little more difficult to work with, but our soldiers, the front line brigades, we are doing... everything is possible, we are to some extent, maybe we even do something impossible, but we stand and we work, we fulfill our duties, well, how can we make money, but tell me, look, i also heard such a story that in your direction there are a lot and very actively,

the enemy uses rap, and as if this caused such unpleasant stories that in... actually now our unmanned aviation is very well, it has such a problem, it has a large application, and well, again, in your direction, on april 4 , it was possible to capture such a t-72 with a new reb , literally, the machine gun was installed on the tower, in general, well, it’s like that , now it’s started, well, some kind of new tactics, when they put a rap on armored vehicles and tanks, they are let somewhere, well, in order to imprison them. respectively, our drones, how is it happening now, has the activity of ukrainian drones really decreased in this zone of yours, how is it at the moment? look, it is not that it has decreased, we work with drones, as we have worked, the same with fpv drones,

there is no difference between night and day, we have worked and will work with drones. because now there is a technological war, and in order to not, well, once again, not expose the personnel to danger, it is better to work technologically, and we will do it, we can do everything, the enemy really uses a lot of weapons, he lately it has increased, perhaps six months ago there was such a strong activity of arebu and... to say the least, there was not, now it really has become very difficult, but our drones, the gunner operators themselves, they learn, they, they develop, they work on themselves, and they are still looking for medicine, where you can fly up, where you can just bypass this rebsystem in order to collect

as much information as possible from certain borders of the enemy, and still accomplish his goal, will reveal the enemy's forces and means. eh, we have something a little hanging there, let's know, let's see now, we have a plot just from the region of the temporal ravine, well, the russians are constantly storming there, hundreds of drones are launched from positions at our military, because of this it is difficult enough to evacuate the wounded and how the volunteer soldiers of the 67th mechanized brigade of duk are defending the city, let's watch the plot and then maybe we will also see something interesting there and discuss it. chasiv yar in donetsk region has become a key point that the russians want to seize after the occupation. muta, now heavy fighting is going on there, the defense of the city is held by units of the armed forces of ukraine, among them volunteer soldiers of the 67th separate mechanized

brigade duk. as for the situation in the time gap, it is now very tense, what is this direction the enemy is constantly storming and trying to take our positions, and the confrontation is now quite aggressive. the enemy has been constantly attacking for the past few days, the enemy does not stand still, unfortunately, and now they have so many drones that our guys, who are already trained in combat , can sometimes simply go from point to point for hours, because they are hanging, well, honestly, just hundreds, just swarms, due to the constant assaults of the russian army, there are a lot of wounded in the brigade, evacuations take place day and night, there is a lack of protective equipment, and therefore sometimes it is not possible to take comrades from the battlefield, two of our guys recently left by car to a position where they could get where they had

to go, or rather an evacuation point, a disembarkation point and then they had to reach the position, then it is impossible to do it by car , it has to be done on foot, and just so you know they were just walking, there were only two of them, that is, it's not a group, how we attack, it's not a technique that we attack with fpv drones, they can afford to launch four drones in two people, so, for example, one of these we still can't get the boys out because there's just a torrential fire. in order to be able to evacuate their comrades at least at night, the soldiers of the 67th brigade need thermal imaging ponchos. chasivyartsy is the dominant height, and if, god forbid, the enemy seizes it, he will very... easily be able to work further, and these are konstantinivka, druzhkivka, kramatorsk, slovyansk, and there it will be even easier for him to advance, that is, time is also strategic, and

tactically, and in general it is very important for the lives of people who live for, that is, in those cities where there is still life, because in the time rush it is already almost no support the soldiers, it is with your help that they will be able to... buy the protection they need and restrain the enemy on the battlefield. khrystyna parobiy, espresso tv channel. well, actually, this is the story and very clearly, well, the description describes what the ultimate goal of all this is and why it is so important for us in the time of the yar, it is said, regarding the fact that there are a lot of fpvons, here of course it is interesting, how do you evaluate the work, well on our side. kurebu, because, well, it seems that, after all, for example, on the avdiivsky direction somehow it is more possible to restrain the work of russian

drones, and the one, and you seem to be, well, after all , the situation with this is a bit more tense, is that how it looks now? russian drones, indeed, they greatly interfere with our work, that is. they ask, the direction where the brigade holds the line, we have anti-drone guns, and that is, they even have some legs with which to work, well, let's learn to work now, and i'll try to do something, so i, well, that's a problem yes, but little by little we will learn and... we will solve it, it's different for us anyway there is no choice. and what do you say now about the use of russian artillery, has their activity increased, or is it somewhere at

the same level? how do you assess, i apologize, there was a bad communication, i say, what, what do you say about the use of russian artillery, how is it felt now to increase it there, is it about the same activity as it was, that is, what, what do you see now, i don't know, personally , my opinion is that at the beginning of a full-scale invasion, it doesn't stop, you're already waiting for them to... well, when they 'll run out of these reserves, that's the impression, because they sit somewhere there, and they assemble these shells, prepare them, because where they have such a supply, i don’t know, i don’t understand this, because the intensity does not, does not stop and does not decrease, it is possible, they give it there calm, yes, well, it's usually a calm before the storm, that is, they kept quiet a little, but

then they pushed hard. now they work more, well, during the day, at night, now specifically, how are their attempts, well , let's say, attacks, because i say, well , they record that you have the most attacks, but when how does it happen, with what forces, in the direction, in the direction where our brigade is standing, here, as a rule, they attack aviation and artillery in... during the day, that is, at night, they, in principle, lead themselves more passively, but their aggressive work is done during the day, that is why the day is currently the most difficult, and we postpone all logistical points more to the night, because it is quieter and calmer there, and how do you ultimately assess the enemy's forces at

to this from... that is, what kind of units are these, are they staff units, are they mobilized, who are they? look, according to our observations, the enemy's tactics do not change, he remains at the forefront, that is, he puts personnel soldiers at the forefront, who directly perform their task, this is preparation for offensive actions, yes, there are also... , who come, their task is simply to dig out, that is, to collapse, that is, to prepare positions, arrange positions, because this is also all very important, and well , assault operations are naturally carried out by someone, they launch, as a rule, meat, but after him already they send a special unit, but as practice has shown, their special units die just as

well. like cannon fodder, there is absolutely nothing different, well, let's wish them to continue to die there in greater numbers, so that there are at least much fewer of them, thank you very much, it was mykola raptor, the chief sergeant of the intelligence plant of the rubizh brigade, i remind you time, so that you join our meetings, which are on fpv, and on reconnaissance, and on everything that we offered, because right now it's really for... right now the most necessary thing is that we we can use at the moment when we don't have enough artillery, fpv, unfortunately, this is what can help us the most, i 'll say goodbye to you until next week, see you in this format next week, watch our news and actually watch our air

it's 2 p.m. in ukraine, it's news time on the espresso tv channel in the studio of iryna koval, i greet all viewers, and now to the most important events. ukraine returned 99 fallen defenders. in particular, 77 bodies of fighters who fought in the donetsk direction, 20 fallen soldiers from zaporizhia and two defenders from kharkiv, the coordination headquarters for the treatment of prisoners of war reported. the armed forces of ukraine will transport the bodies of the dead to state institutions, where they will identify the soldiers, after which the bodies will be handed over to their families. the government has increased by 70,000 hryvnias the payments to the military and
