we still have some, let's let's count together, 215 is 115 days, more precisely, 115 days is like 3,5, 3,5,4,4 months, and there will be a thousand days since the great war has been going on, 1000 days is also like that, some kind of round date, every day to pour tears, blood, and also to surround, i don't know, the spirit of struggle, every day costs the lives of thousands of russians here, and, but it costs the lives of ukrainian soldiers and ukrainian civilians, a terrible war, a terrible war, but russia pays a great price the price for advancing on some small, very... territories, which are currently happening we will talk about the front now, we will talk about it, we will talk about what

is happening now in the zaporizhzhia region, there the russians have recently become active again, although it can be said that there was no stagnation there at all, it has been several months on this front line, the enemy is attacking constantly, is kostyantyn denisov, spokesman of the legion of freedom, still with us? from the zaporozhye region, as far as i know, mr. kostyantyn, congratulations, congratulations to you, congratulations to the viewers of espress tv, glory to ukraine, heroes of glory, what is the situation now on on the front, they will ask first of all in the zaporizhzhia direction, it is difficult, very difficult, the enemy has intensified offensive actions, well, in principle, this was predicted, we also discussed on your broadcasts that they are bringing in reinforcements, repairing equipment, carrying out training at training grounds... repairing their assault units, accordingly

, they are actively manned by drones, accordingly, now they are constantly storming, well , constantly, not in the sense that 24/7, but they have their attack raids on our positions every day, they are trying to move the gray zone in our direction, push through, gnaw through some areas, repulse strongholds. all the settlements on the line of battle are under constant fire of russian artillery, our guys are within half a dozen of their positions, and some of the settlements are under air strikes, the russians are carrying out air strikes on these settlements, trying not only to try, but first of all to destroy any what infrastructure they see. masquerading as military, but it is one hundred percent exclusively civilian infrastructure, no military facilities

they are not fighting, well, in general, they are trying to regain the lost positions that they left during the ukrainian offensive-liberation operations of the second half of the 23rd, the beginning of the 24th year, let's say objectively, in certain areas the russians have progress, but it is... microscopic, i have already said many times against the background of how many human and artillery resources they are pouring there, can the situation here be the same as in donbas, where now near pokrovsk the russians managed to advance a few kilometers, what is different about the zaporizhia front? uh, the russians are literally there, maybe they have an advance of several hundred meters, but no more, they don’t have... they are trying to develop tactical success, constantly covering everything with artillery fire, connecting

their aviation, but i say that these at the most , they will move into the gray zone, they will recapture some stronghold, but before that , it's just them there, i told your colleagues that they have such a tactic called weeding the garden, they just stupidly bomb that area, pelting it with artillery shells. in in general, the russians have not changed their strategies for many, many months, that is , they first drop all kinds of cabs, then a powerful art. preparation, then some assaults, and this and that, gradually destroying the defense lines, they are gradually very slowly with great losses, but advancing, i don’t know, this one is an artillery barrage and meat assaults, this is this combination, one way or another they somehow work, that is, they have been fighting like this for many

months, how long will it last, well, i do not agree that they are destroying. line of defense, they they are destroying civilian infrastructure and destroying civilian communities on the line of confrontation, ukrainian defense is standing, you see what we are saying, how many resources the russians are pouring in, but they are not making any serious progress, in certain areas even they have to withdraw, and the gray zone is moving into their side, let's say objectively, that they have an insane amount of live meat for assault attacks and a lot of it. shells and an advantage in aviation, yes, it exists, but the answer to them, from our side, is a competent, multi-layered active defense, it is the high-quality work of artillery, long-range, in particular, even the enemy notes in their summaries that the ukrainian gunners are doing a great job, as well as the use of various

drones by our brothers in order to shoot down the russian attack waves there, destroying theirs. and armored vehicles, and artillery installations on occasion, primarily hitting their assault vehicles. the russians, at the moment, they are succeeding, absolutely rightly noted, are achieved due to the fact that they just stupidly pile on and everything, even for some there, for the sake of achieving some petty advances, even if those advancements will eventually be leveled and rolled back again and they have to roll back, they don't count with resources, or the tide. at least a little less aircraft attacks after they allowed strikes on russian territories? we are not observing this at the moment, as i said, we have a number of settlements on the line of hostilities in the zaporizhzhia region, which are constantly subjected to artillery and air strikes. well, thank you, mr. kostyantyn, kostyantyn

denisov, the spokesman of the legion of freedom was with us, thank you for this conversation, for the opportunity to talk we've got. in fact, we were talking about what is happening in the zaporizhzhia region, i want to tell you something else, you know what to say, what news to tell, or rather, i wanted to say something so good, and the good thing is that the russian head, the head of their national bank, is called he central bank, declared that the russian reserve. sy, which they have accumulated, which have actually exhausted the labor force reserves of production facilities, elvira nabiulina stated this during a press conference yesterday, and said that although the russian gdp is increasing by 5% due to trillion infusions into the production

of weapons, but at the same time inflation is growing, already 9%, the economy... is very overheated, there is a shortage of personnel, capacities, in fact, this is a starflation scenario, it will be possible to stop it only at the price of a deep recession, - the head stated of their national bank, so in principle, they will say that inflation and the loss of imported goods also remain in the open, their assessments are very pessimistic. the best russian economist, this is related to the question of whether sanctions work in principle, this is an interesting question, let's put it this way or else we should raise it today, and i also read that you probably followed the press conference of the minister of internal affairs yesterday, it was nice that

the law enforcement officers responded so promptly and quickly and openly and transparently this time, responding to the public's request, of course to find out the truth about ... the murder of iryna forion, linguist, ukrainian politician, ex-deputy, and yesterday, we, we watched this, this is the actual briefing, it was absolutely, i think, exhaustive, within the limits of what could be said without violating interests investigations and the secret of the investigation, a lot of different people found out, but what do you know, i remembered that the deputy head of the national police. and then andriy nebetov was on the air of radio svoboda and said that this suspect, this boy, a young 18-year-old football player, who was detained and... and yesterday there was quite, probably, convincing evidence that it could be him, murderer, and describing him, he said that he

is actually a completely pro-ukrainian person, respects and loves ukraine, and his father fights in a certain brigade, and here too this is, you know, a question for all of us, because this is a significant absolute thing, er, how can you love ukraine in order to... kill another person who also loves ukraine, and what does it mean to love ukraine in principle, iryna farion, she loved ukraine, or she didn’t, for example, and this boy, does everyone have their own truth, then who should kill whom, if everyone has their own truth, but from some point of view, you know, putin probably loves him very much ukraine, he loves it so much, he wants it so much that he is ready to pay huge amounts in principle literally millions of lives of his fellow citizens to get that ukraine, he loves it so much. to have the opportunity, you know , there, to call ukrainian culture a part of russian culture and even, as it were, a source of russian culture, he also loves

ukrainian culture very much, this is a question in fact, an open question, so is ferion, if she was really killed for this, then she was more than once said that this question is painful, sharp, divisive, but, but this question, it has the right to... existence, this question is whether we can really, for example, in russian language, whether to be pro-russian and love ukraine, is that enough, gentlemen, we will now take a short break, then petro andryushchenko, adviser to the mayor of mariupol, will talk about what is happening in donbas and in mariupol itself, stay, there are leftovers. 15% in travel and savings pharmacies. national tv on megogo is a lot of channels, well, a lot of channels, as well as

we will, i hope, now talk about what is happening in the occupied mariupol, yes, and in the meantime, we also, you know, what else i wanted to tell you, that i, which is also another news from russia, russia actually supplies a lot of such amazing news, and i have been discovering russia for myself since the beginning of the war, because somehow i lived like that for 30 years and never even looked at that swamp. you know, somehow it existed for me. separately, and now i'm watching it because it's interesting to study the enemy's psychology in principle, to understand how we differ, how we are dangerously similar, this is also important, yes, you understand, and uh, i read the news, which is actually funny, probably before to a certain extent, in a word, the head of one of the innovative enterprises that manufactures some defense orders for the russian army, i don’t know what, it is not

specified there, well... it is obvious that there are some shahedy clips, or something else, and in a word this head 74 years retired military himself tried to burn himself on red square, on red square, self-immolation, and i already think so, well, maybe you know, after all, he is a pacifist, he opposes an unjust war, you know how tibetan monks burned themselves there and still sometimes do some such things with... so that when protesting against the occupation of tibet, for example, by china, we think something like that, but no, it turns out that he wanted to burn himself, well, i really don't know whether he really wanted to burn himself or not, but because of that , which he is not allowed to do a state defense order, something is not working out for him there, i don’t know, they don’t smuggle spare parts for something or something else, because the russians themselves already have high technologies, it’s very difficult for them, well, well, but

that’s the story... , that is, a person was so afraid that he would be punished that he was ready to burn himself, and just think, he is 74 years old, he is some kind of retired military veteran, just to imagine, imagine this atmosphere of some kind of fear that reigns in russian society , as far as they are actually moved closer to a totalitarian state, and it is clear that they did not deviate very far from it, we just think that we are still very similar to them, because... our people also know that kirkorov is like that, but the only one in the world, but in fact we are obviously already different from them in many ways, at least i really hope so, petro andryushchenko is already with us, mr. peter, i congratulate you, i congratulate you, glory to ukraine, glory to the heroes, what news from your mariupol native, and the news is different, if you start with the military part, i think that it is

first of all, everyone is concerned, then... we can say that we continue to observe the same trend that we have seen, that is, the russians are still trying to accumulate a certain number of their troops and are bringing unit after unit to the territory of the zaporizhzhia region, all this is moving mostly in the rozivskyi-polokhivskyi district, through mariupol and through the mariupolskyi district , fully formed units are entering on brand new trucks, every night for the last few days we have seen them hauling vehicles. they don't drag her around a day, they drag her in dark, in the dark time of day, so that it was difficult to record, but people heard, they saw tractors going, again in the same direction they were pulling bmps, tanks were also pulling, and so the movement of equipment from the territory of the rostov region was becoming more active somewhere around wednesday-thursday of this week, before that it almost didn't happen, let's put it this way, it's

so basic. at the same time , we can see that the russians from their camps, which are located from mariupol to berdyansk and then further to primorsk, zaporizhzhia region, also began to rake out their mobilized children contractors that they are training here and even opened another training ground near mariupol, the fourth already in order to speed up these preparations, and if before they were kept there for up to a month, let's say during preparations, now we see that the time of preparation... reduced to 10-15 days for them there, which means that, in principle, if you put everything together, that on the one hand, the russians do not give up the dream of starting another one there, let's say the point of attack in the direction of zaporozhye, here i think that we are a little we differ in plans, but probably not who knows, it could be a regional one, and it could be, well, at least our insiders still insist that the russians want

to advance in the direction of vogladara, that is, through... zaporizhzhia region towards donetsk region or more.
