help sew. however, during a blackout, volunteer ms. svitlana says, in order to continuously fulfill orders, they need mechanical seams. machines, and some old ones are already in need of repair, usually they are already old machines, so somewhere the belt has broken, somewhere some spare part has failed, so we are turning to you, those who care citizens of kremenchug, if anyone suddenly has a mechanical typewriter in good condition, we will be glad if you provide it to us temporarily, or give it as a gift, at the entrance, i sit down, next to me they take scissors in... everyone who can, is able, and it works, i’ll show you, i’ll make it, and we have this bag in the evening and the morning, every day , and that’s good, good, and that’s enough , the girls are already waiting for me at the entrance, dear, you bring it, i say, and i’ll take it, i just

had a nap, and it’s filling, in addition to awnings , the volunteers also make mattresses, tell stories, work even during blackouts electricians, they are also very popular among our... oh, well, you can see how many stitches there are, the fabric is also rubberized, it is oxford 135, and these are the covers we sew, volunteers make, as well as balaclavas and some elements of clothing, take this home, we need a special loom, although we have one that knits on top, the looms also knit, and valusha he sews their details afterwards. and the volunteers who are gray in the evening are calling on the citizens to join their initiative. from kremenchuk, vlad plaksii, hryhoriy bobenko. that's all the news i have for now as of this hour. see you at

11 o'clock. and to find out more interesting and up-to-date information, follow updates on our website espresso.tv, as well as on our social networks. next, my colleagues andriy saichuk and olyana are already waiting for you on the air.

good morning to everyone who tunes in, listens to us on their way to work or, if they have a day off today, turns on the tv to see what happened last night, good morning everyone, and we remind you first about our collection, join it, let it be traditional action in the morning, let it be such a tradition. which starts the day, we collect for three brigades, during the broadcast the qr code

will appear on your screens, so do not neglect it and donate to the armed forces of ukraine, and we will report everything about how all the money was spent. andriy ryzhenko, reserve captain of the first rank, navy of the armed forces of ukraine, strategic expert of the sonata company, deputy chief of staff of the navy. from the armed forces of ukraine in 2004 / 2020 are in touch with us. good morning, glory to ukraine, mr. andrii. and glory to the heroes, good morning. glad to see you on our airwaves, and the news is coming this morning that there were explosions in the black sea village in the temporarily occupied crimea, they say it was a naval drone, was it a shelling or destruction, so far? unknown, maybe you have a little more info on what might be there? well, look, chernomorska

is located in the western crimea, and it is probably the closest base, but now i looked at the map, it really is the closest to ukraine, a military naval base of the russian federation, and we we know that two were destroyed at this base at the beginning of the year. high-speed landing craft that could deliver armored vehicles to the spits and islands occupied by russia in our country, and this is a base point, where possible, where the location of the enemy's small-sized high-speed boats that can deliver sabotage groups, special purpose groups in order to act, how to control the occupied territories. and act on our territories, because i think that our defense security forces

are constantly monitoring the situation and well in fact, at least they bind the enemy's forces, and when they succeed, they attack them, especially since the distance to, again , this base point is so great, for example, to sevastopol is twice as short as to sevastopol, that's why.. well, this is not the first time that drone attacks have been confirmed by our ministry of defense, the same is noted in russian records, when they say that their naval aviation seems to be watching for our drones, in fact , every day. in that place is noted such activity, even the russians said that they shot down one neptune missile tonight, is it theoretically possible, and what should attack the missile... neptune, well, the neptune missile has been redesigned now, it can fire at targets

on the coast, at a fairly long range , at a fairly good distance, i would say for us, this is our missile, we shoot where we want, we don’t ask anyone for anything, and well , crimea and this steam crossing, port kavkaz, i think so, have already been attacked with such missiles. that it can even reach the new russian language, somehow she had a goal, but again. i think that it was not one missile, first, well, one missile , i admit, they shot down, and several, i think so, hit the targets, which hits we know later. you know, with regard to the situation in the russian region of kursk, kurshchyna, it is becoming clear little by little that this is not just a raid, it is not just a diversionary maneuver, forbes writes that , according to their data, the 80th brigade, one of the best ukrainian brigades, is involved, amphibious assault, they also say that, well,

we see that the equipment is powerful, fixed. ukrainian in this direction, that is, they say forbes that up to 10,000 armed forces that are participating in this offensive on russian territory can now be counted, well, they said that, well, now we are showing, by the way, yesterday there was a column that a bunch of russians are preparing to go to kursk , they are visiting the kursk region, and someone there wrote in the comments, someone reset the geolocation, maybe heimer is there. and here we literally have a night video, when everything is on fire, and it is already morning, you see, it has already burned down, many are injured russians, killed, that is, they bombed this column, what they could have bombed it with, i suspect that it was probably the gaimars, that is, the attack was quite serious, well, you see, i think that the first

and most important thing now is not to reveal all our plans, as it were, that's why. .. that the basis of success, i think, in this operation was precisely based on the factor of surprise, surprise, and well, if the eighty do it, it is really the most , let's say, the prepared connection of your compatriots, and this one, and they, well, just for they are preparing for such actions, by the way, these are their classics actions, actions in the offensive, in the offensive such raids, breakthroughs, and then the classic mechanism is pulled up... units, well, from my point of view , a direction was chosen where the russians did not expect it, or expected it with the least probability, the defense there was, well, maybe purely formal weak, that's why i think that when

the analysis was carried out, the following was decided. moreover, we see that even in europe everyone is very surprised, this is actually the first fact that such military operations were carried out on the territory of russia after the second world war action, well, again, we also fully understand that this action is aimed primarily at the liberation of our captured territories, so to speak, well, i think that this makes sense. well, let's say, even at the strategic level, and secondly, we see that russia is vulnerable and not ready for such measures, which means, well, for the third, third day in a row, they are making such and such loud statements there, and well how did it happen, they have no reserves at all, by the way, we remember that prigozhin went to moscow, there was

the impression is that there is literally no one to stop him, this then showed that they are strongly exposed within the reserves and do not have and... are not ready for such an attack on moscow, well, conditionally on moscow, but look, well, yes, the point is because it was not so far there, prigozhin happened to be there, but really the main mass of forces is concentrated right now in the occupied territories of ukraine, practically already 600 thousand people, 600,000, that is , these are combat-ready units, but we already know , that the defense of this kursk was kept. insurers, that is, those who are there very much inexperienced, these soldiers, yes, yes, yes, because this is a large number, this is actually, if you take this, this is the maximum number of the russian armed forces, this is half of its number, and these are combat units, they are there, i think that the reserves very, very few, if there are any, and it is difficult to transfer them, but i

think that this moment of the reserve was also studied by our military, and the absence... of these reserves, or well, and weak protection, they just used in planning these are very similar, let's say, a bold raid or a bold offensive operations mr. andriy, in this context i would like to ask, what about the accumulation of troops and reserves in crimea, well, it is already a rear area for the occupying russian army? well , look, there are not very many troops there, well... as far as i know, there may be up to 20,000, so i think this is the maximum number, and they use crimea more for the renewal of equipment, for repairs, for treatment. wounded for the storage of ammunition for this purpose at the beginning of the aggression there were really very, very many concentrated there, but now not so much,

that's why they keep it there, their main, let's say, strike force is there, it's aviation that helps them storm our forces in the south and patrol the black sea, there are missile units that bombard our south every time. day, by the way, there are those shaheds, well, it is not such, not such a large unit, that is, in fact, the strength, the numerical strength of the personnel of russia is not very large there, but, well, it is mainly as such, well, a force generator for actions right in the south of ukraine, at the moment, this is the situation, and i 'm just trying, you know, well, that is, we all we are very, very happy. on the one hand, because of what is happening now in kursk region, on the other hand, there were a lot of very similar, let 's say, different fears, and we, we, we

are worried, in fact, how this operation will end, we had a super operation in the rinks, it even is still ongoing, we still do not know how many of our marines and other military personnel have died there, but we understand that so far this operation has not brought any visible results. and we had a super offensive operation last year, when they took three months of fighting with huge losses, which we also, by the way, do not know the end, officially they are not called works, but which are now actually lost back, and i only what i am leading to, that when we have in the 14th or the 15th year, when there was ilovaisk, when we had people in ilovaisk coming out of this corridor, which the russians seem to have ... because they invaded, no one was ready for this, and then they violated the agreements and opened fire on the column that evacuated and 350

people died, we had a huge investigation, how allowed this, although it is obvious that there was no fault of the commanders, no fault, because no one was ready, that the russians invaded, entered the territory, and so on, the regular army, and that they were actually just lying, at that moment everyone were not ready, i just have a question... i have a different opinion, what we have, for example, the operation in the wells, we have some general conclusions from this operation, what we have is that, for example, last year's offensive was unsuccessful , we have some conclusions from all this, well, i mean very simply it's cool that there are 80 lviv troops going, er, beating the muscovites, advancing in the direction of moscow, or i don't know what else there is, but if in a month, two, a week we will get... some encirclement , huge losses that no one will tell us either, will it be a good price? i just want to understand what the purpose of our offensive is, you say, but let

our cool super commanders think and so on, we trust them, i don’t know if we already trust them, they don’t tell us anything, we only see correct operations, that's all, no, well, look, you have to trust the commanders, otherwise everything will collapse, i can say yes, but i don’t like it when it started... some kind of, you know, wave of mass criticism, really everyone is wrong, no, wait, that’s it i am not criticizing, it is, for example, lieutenant colonel krotovych criticizes sodel, and in the end he is removed, so this criticism had grounds, several more brigade commanders spoke against sodel, it is not journalists who criticize, in order to prepare a commander of this level, very large expenses and a lot years, we don't have not that, not that, well, for the teams to be really, well, much more effective, there is room for work in this, we must as

soon as possible abandon our soviet past, from soviet tactics, from soviet operational art and move on to how such operations are planned the united states of america, the north atlantic alliance, this is maneuver warfare, this is... combined arms, this is the application of mission command, that is , the delegation of authority to the tactical level, these are the principles, they are enough differ from what we have, i think that our military studies both the nato system and our supposedly national system, well, i think that our national system is not much different from the russian one. they know how we will act, and they can counteract it quite easily, but they do not know how to act against the nativska system, because it is very

difficult to act against it. it is not predictable, but it is based, well, on many such elements, which, of course, are difficult to predict, and well, if we train our commanders all levels, tactical, operational, strategic, how to think in this way, how to inspire subordinates, think in this way, how to educate subordinates so that they can command their units and really do not abandon the military and equipment. in such areas without a perfectly thought-out solution, but then, well, then , there will be much less cases like this, but i think that if you understand, you can try to go and play poker yourself, because many people no, criticism is very good, feedback absolutely, i don't think so it was the commander of the 80th brigade who decided to attack

russia in the area now. kursk, so we are not criticizing the brigade commanders here and certainly not even syrsky, we are talking about the fact that in our country, since the time of zaluzhnyi, this decision has been made by the political leadership, and it is carried out by the military, and sometimes they do not agree to do this and simply remove their posts , how did it happen to the industrious? well, look, i'm sure, well, politics is politics, military affairs are military affairs, i told you about military affairs, if you want to win russians, forget it. the soviet past will postpone these instructions, all the soviet ones, which were simply translated into ukrainian and used for nato deployments, they do not know them, and they are very afraid of them, even this f16 plane, which is already 50 years old, yes, but which was constantly modernized , he, even this small number, she can see what reaction she has now, well, in russia,

they are afraid of her, despite the fact that they supposedly have the 30th su-34th, the 34th sud, they are much newer there , but the capabilities as i understand it, the other, here , this, this is the reason, but again, i want to say that to educate a battalion commander, a brigade commander, a corps commander, this is a very huge job, it takes tens of years, and i think millions, or even tens of millions of state funds, this... we also need to think about this and we need to think about the training system of these people, because otherwise we will really have such a fee, uh, well, and i think that if it is really so it is important, then why was the commander dismissed, removed from his post, the commander of the 80th brigade actually, it happened, by the way, on the eve of this

offensive, they... maybe he meant that this task was suicidal, when he seemed to not agree to do something there, i'm just saying, that we don't have answers, because we, because we don't have much to talk about, because it's not only things that are there are things that are military, which military censorship, it makes sense, it makes sense, despite the fact that russians actually know some formations much better and so on, listen to us... moms russian drones hang over odessa and chernihiv 24 hours a day and there is nothing to shoot them down, and you think they don’t see what kind of deployment there is, well, it’s just ridiculous, and the story is different, the story is whether we still have any control of society over these decisions, because in principle society is at war, the army is society, and this society did not elect, for example, the ermak and anyone who for some reason is present, for example,

at these, at these... at these stakes commander-in-chief and so on, that is, i am only asking questions that everyone actually has, na in every kitchen, every family, in which someone is already in the armed forces, someone has already died, someone has been buried, they, they, they themselves, they ask, okay, look, i tell you, we have you, but i tell you, the way i see this situation from a military point of view, a small soviet army will not... will not defeat a large soviet army, so it is necessary to make the ukrainian army as nato as possible so that what the commanders planned, and in the nato army i can tell you that the commander battalion, it acts as in the soviet army, in fact, perhaps the division commander is acting, i mean, planning an operation, that is, there are various options for action, the battalion commander of the soviet army is not planning anything and...
