weeks of a large-scale information campaign, which russia, the russian side, presented this performance in the border strip, about which many people said in advance that it would be an attack on the border strip, but not more than that, there is an attack on kharkiv or something else, that is not less informationally, they managed to win an informational victory, but not on the battlefield. so to speak. about the informational, you know, i think that in the end they got something that they didn't expect it to come up at all, that is exactly the result of their attempt to break through there, well, on the border of the kharkiv region, caused a change, well, in the mood of our allies, who simply realized that it was probably time to strike at the territory of russia, directly, that is... well, completely unsuccessful, because

what happened what they feared for a very long time and tried to contain in various ways, and this decision was made, yes, but still frankly to pay attention to the fact that it is worth paying attention to the fact that they stopped, in fact they already have ... the battle line not moved in kharkiv oblast in these directions, already when this decision was just at the stage of adoption, that is, they talked about it, but this final decision was not taken, but they were already standing, they did not have enough resources and what they did, they did by dragging units from the sixth combined arms army and the first combined arms army, the tank army, to kharkiv oblast via belgorod oblast, this is

the kupin direction of the west troop group, and from the south troop group they began to pull the landing party, which was stationed near ivanivsky, kleschiivka and andriivka, as well as from the kruhivsky direction, they began to pull 155 separate brigade of marines, that is , even then they did not have enough resources to somehow continue as intensively. these offensive actions in the vovchensk direction and in the livtsi area, and as we can see, they still haven't decided, or haven't decided, or have given up altogether on the idea of ​​opening a front in the sumy region, although the threat was quite real, for example, to the great piserivka, not to ryzhivki, which is located there between two rivers, and actually from there i will continue offensive actions, well, there

is no sense at all, namely, a large register, well, it was a serious problem, that another front could really open there, not as powerful as in the vovchansk or lyptsi areas, but it was quite possible, but that is no longer the case month, that is, they lost time, they lost the initiative, and at the time, it is true, when putin constantly declared that their goal was to create a sanitary zone along the border. with ukraine, well, he did everything so that this sanitary zone would appear in the future from the russian federation. well, but look, on the other hand, now we have a situation where the russian occupation troops have advanced near staromarskoye, well, practically capturing it, yes, practically capturing ivanovsk, well, yes, it’s in the area of ​​the time ravine, and advanced very strongly near novopokrovsky . this is the postavdiyiv front in

the district in the direction of pokrovsk, that is, on all these sections of the front we have a russian advance, and here the question arises, this is the result of the fact that certain of our forces were distracted, which were forced to be distracted after all after all, to the kharkiv front, or the reason is something else, and well, if you say so, well , literally directly, and why not, well, why can't we stop it. the advance in the pokrovsky direction is generally going on there, the russian advance is going on and the defense forces of ukraine are unable to stop it, well, objectively, yes, about these directions, here are two points: firstly, no one mentioned about these directions in general for almost a month, for the most part they were forgotten about in the informational context, all attention was paid to kharkiv oblast and another hypothetical front in sumy oblast, although again anyway... the potential that the russian

occupation troops had in belgorod, kursk and bryansk is not enough to create a crisis situation in kharkiv, sumy or chernihiv regions. the word in general, that is , again, the level of border raiding operations, which will have appropriate informational support, and this will be hypertrophied, creating the appearance of some kind of epicness of battles. in fact, their main attack was and remains the pokrovsky direction and the kramatorsk direction, for her the most important thing of the time the ravine for them is the main advance on the aldiiv bridgehead or along route 0511. or through the viaduct exit to 05 04, or after the formation of a buffer zone directly south of the reeds, it is not even a buffer zone, in general a safety zone along

the left bank of the vovcha river and the reservoir, and thus they will be protected by natural barriers. and then they will be able to use the resource more freely for, i think, the more important direction for them on 05-04, i.e. the route that leads from pokrovsk to kostyantynivka, they will try it to cut precisely in this location, because they are the closest to it there, as well as in the perspective of the opening of the turkish direction, well, that is , it was also constantly talked about and they knew about it very well, well, if they talked about it... at the level of such sofa experts as i, the general staff knew all the more about it, but they could not stop it, and there is a nuance here, why it happened, and because it was reeded, well , in fact, it was not handed over, it will be unfair to the soldiers who held the defense there,

but the circumstances turned out like this, and someone must be responsible for this, that it happened very quickly left, i don’t dislike these words zadat... they were angry and all that, but in fact uzherino had to hold the defense for several months, his capture lasted not even weeks, a very fast process, a couple of days, and precisely because of what was lost it rained once again on the front, especially in the south, it has started, and it will continue to rain, until the russians leave, at least to the left bank of the wolf river and to the khan. that is, they will not form a kind of security buffer precisely based on these natural beliefs with a connection to the netaylovo-karlivka line, well, oleksandr, come on now, after the break, we will look at the pokrovsky area in more detail, and

if possible, if we can make it to the chasovoyarsk area, we will be joined by another guest who operates there in the area, and that's it... after the break, we'll just continue the conversation on this very topic the most hot direction and to pokrovsk to toretsk, because this is really now, well, the most problematic, i would say, the most problematic part of the front, so we will return after the break, stay with us. romania-ukraine only on mego. the best generation of the national team must begin the journey to the european championship only with victory. cheer on june 17 at 16:00 and watch all euro 2024 matches exclusively on mego. favorite foods and drinks cause heartburn? do you periodically suffer from heartburn? i am a doctor and for conditions accompanied by

the chronicles of the war, we continue the conversation with oleksandr kovalenko, a military expert on information resistance, and we started talking about what is happening in the pokrovsky direction, because now it is the most problematic direction, where it is not possible to stop the advance yet. the enemy, well, actually, mr. oleksandr has already started, well, to explain what is happening there, so far today, if you look at the summary of the general staff, which is there, they indicate four directions where battles are taking place, offensive attempts, and indicate that the number of enemy attacks has already reached 20 today, that is , they are sufficiently felt... with the use of both equipment and aviation, and now you

, oleksandr, have already begun to say what the purpose of these enemy actions is, i would just like to ask you to describe in more detail this whole situation in this direction, where the russians are trying to advance, what their goals are, and actually, what is the threat to us, if, for example, they manage to advance in those directions , where are they trying to do that? well, yes, in principle reed, of course, at first glance it may seem that their main goal is this, the primary goal, this is pokrovsk, along the 05:11 route, in principle, it really is, yes, this is the pokrovsk-kramatorsk route, exactly pokro, well, in this case this is the case with pokrovsk, but kramatorsk. the kromotorsk direction is , after all, a higher priority because of the time of the ravine and

the pokrovsk route 05-11 they started this movement, but now it is very important for them to create a safety buffer zone south of the turnpike, the southern flank is completely closed. their main tasks now are taking in as short as possible under the control of the villages of sokil and novopokrovskoe, then it’s about already advancing to novoselivka and yevgenivka, and actually closing along the entire left, left bank of the vovchii river and the kariiv reservoir on the netaylova-karlivka line, this is the general plan, the first priority, and for this they use, by the way, the most combat-capable units that they still have left from... uh, uh, two offensive campaigns of 2023 on avvidka. these are units from the composition of,

for example, the second combined arms army, which is a center group of troops, it operated in in the direction of lyman in the lyman direction, these are brigades 15, 21, 30, that is, they have been since october 23 and after avdiivka was captured, they did not take them anywhere, they left them there, and they... are the main shock element in this area, the most combat-ready brigades, despite the fact that they have lost a rather serious potential, and let's imagine that they succeed... you are this security buffer, by the way, a problem for the defense forces of ukraine there connected with the fact that they are actually clamped along the banks of the vovchi river and along the karliv river reservoir, i.e. in that and the problem that the possibility of maneuver decreases, the more the russians capture the territory in this area, at this location, the less maneuver we have and

the ability to somehow operate more effectively. and oppose the russians, and let's imagine the most negative scenario, they capture this very location on the left bank of vovchia and the karliv reservoir, what's next? again , the first thought arises: they will go to pokrovsk, but no, the further movement to pokrovsk will take place, but much slower, he will simply keep the defense forces of ukraine in good shape, that is, so that they do not redistribute. resources in other directions, i think that it is more important for the russian occupiers to continue advancing along the uzdvizhanka, especially now there is such a huge pressure on the uzdvizhanka from the russian air force to cut the 0504

route between pokrovsk and kostiantynivka through the uzdvizhanka, and when will this happen , the next phase can begin: the attack on the turk, the turkish direction, and if this is combined precisely with with the desire of the russians to seize time by the end of the summer and the pressure they are currently exerting, we can see their general plan, they will try to completely close the issue with the turkish bridgehead as soon as possible with the time gap and as of 2020. the fourth year they there will be, well, i understand that their main plan, the main task is the exit to the kostyantynivka, druzhkivka line, and in fact with an exit to the slavyano-kramatorsk agglomeration. well, yes, such a dangerous situation, let's put it bluntly. well, another guest joined us, serviceman of the ukrainian armed forces, yevhen yevlev, congratulations,

yevhen, i wish you health, glory to ukraine. glory to heroes. i understand that you are closer there to the horlivskyi direction, but you also visit pokrovskyi, which we are currently discussing, and chasovayarskyi. appeared after all, well, there are some new weapons now at the front, that more ammunition appeared, because, well, as if... this situation was about to change, when it was like that it is not at all bad, or something is already felt, because we discussed here before that the situation is quite difficult, it is still not possible to stop the advance of the russians, and we are trying to understand how, what, why this is happening, or whether you can speak, and yes, i

heard you for a second, there 's a connection about you, look, i'll tell you, i want you to... evaluate what i'm going to tell you through the prism of the fact that a soldier is talking to you right from the trench line, because there are some global strategic plans that even the regional headquarters can see i will not tell you, and i will tell you that the lines are palpably, palpably dug when there is a bk for artillery, or there is no bk for artillery, of course, when the artillery is worked out normally, it stops the work, the advance of the enemy, and it allows us to carry out certain repulsive maneuvers there some of our positions, there are landings, although it does not sound global. on the scale of the entire front line there, but the repulsed landing is a very serious achievement for us there as well, so it can be said frankly that something critically new has appeared there, which helps us there knocking out the enemy and so on, the fact that we 're working fpv, you know, from the point of view of fpv, we're more or less in a stable situation where we have someone to fly, and we more or less have, let's say, sources that help us with fpv drones, with explosives and so on, what

can really be said for the fact is that it is noticeable that arta began to work more actively, and i emphasize. how does this manifest itself, i pointed out to you, the enemy does not advance as freely as, say, i will say frankly, i myself saw, there were populated areas not so long ago, a little, you see, interrupted, interrupted a little the connection, i hope it will be restored now, well , until it is restored, i will ask me then... oleksandr, look, your colleague, kostyantyn mashovets, regarding the pokrovsky direction, said the following that at the moment we already have a full-time crew in the pokrovsky operational direction '. bnu tactical crisis, and if the enemy additionally introduces two or three, two or three motorized brigades here, then in this case i don't even see any particular difficulties for

him to convert these tactical successes of his into operational ones, enough is said veiledly, but eh well can you to decipher what your colleague meant, and actually how to counter it like this. and this is actually what i also said, the russians in this particular location have much bigger plans than it seems at first glance, and they do not even concern pokrovsk so much, well , there may be different options here, because i will not be surprised if they and will make every effort to advance in the pokrovsky direction, but the way they are forming the flanks is how they are now forming their security. zones suggests that they will still move north, no so much to the east, to the north, and this is in any case a great danger for entire

bridgeheads, such a bridgehead as turetsky, such in the future as the kramatorsk-slavic agglomeration, that is , this whole movement, it can really create a serious crisis in the donetsk region , and how to stop it, and to stop it, well, first of all... we don't have enough to counter their advantages, it's aviation, in fact, every settlement that was lost, it's lost because it's completely destroyed with the use of modified aerial bombs, and this allows them to cry any, no matter how powerful the ukrap-district is, no matter how powerful the defense lines are, they are opened, when they are not so powerful, then they are opened even faster, this is the first. moment, second moment, yes, it is true, we now have a little better situation with ammunition for artillery, and they

have started to be provided to us, according to all the promised a projects, aid, aid packages, but still they are not enough, if we are talking about such location, like chasiv yak, it's generally a height, it's a dominant height, but even... there there is no dominant role of our artillery, even there there is not enough support that could, at least in this location, which is a dominant height, make it, well, let’s say so, our advantage, although all the conditions for this are natural, landscape, well, i i see that yevheny yevleev has returned to us, you already talked about the fact that he feels a little bit. according to arti, but here is the same question, actually, what do we need now in such a case, in order to feel that we can, well, at least stop

the problem that mr. oleksandr, some losses are more strategic, yes, you know, i will support mr. oleksandr’s thesis with both hands as briefly as possible that today the key story is the protection of the sky, if... we wait for our f-16s, which will start a little in to change the situation, to shoot enemy planes, which today bombard us with fabs and kabs, this will change the situation quite significantly, i would not say that tomorrow we will be there, it will allow us to quickly knock them out of the territory and go to the border in the 91s years, so as not to fantasize, but it will definitely allow you to keep them in the lanes we are on, because even though we have a shortage of bc, despite the fact that we have a shortage of personnel, we frankly have the means. for today, it will be enough to at least restrain the enemy and prevent him from advancing, if we remove the enemy's advantage in air space. thank you to our

guests, we are running out of time, so stay with espresso, we have a lot more to do and we will see you in a week. we are looking for 14-year-old sashka kremzer from the kherson region. the boy lived in the village of zburyvka, this is the skadovsky district of the region, which was occupied by the russians since the first days of full-scale war. it was then that the information about the disappearance of the child was received, and in fact, nothing is known about the boy's fate for more than two years. maybe sashko was taken to russia, or maybe he still remains somewhere in uncontrolled ukraine. i really hope that with your help the child will be found, if anyone has seen or knows where oleksandr kremzer might be now,
