ballistic, so-called thick missile. all details from our military expert. tinder in the water, hands, fishing and bathing in the diet and gums are prohibited, this is a statement from the kyiv regional administration that flows to us from russia, let's try to talk about it, and where to get workers, the market is slowing down, there is a shortage of workers, who will work and will earn money for the ukrainian budget, and kyiv dynamo tried, didn't lose, but the champions league is postponed until next year, about how the kyivans performed well in salzburg and are now waiting for their opponents in the europa league. this is velikiy ater, my name is vasyl zimaya, for the next hour and 44 minutes. i am colleagues with you. well, let's start with the military results of the day. serhii zurets is already with us. sergey, good evening. please, you have the word. i congratulate you, vasyl. greetings to our viewers. today, in our column, we will talk about areas

of the front. first of all, this is the patronage direction, and what is happening in kurshchyna, and more. in detail about the new ballistic missile, about the successful testing of which the president of ukraine announced yesterday, august 27, we will talk about it in a conversation with an expert who knows the details, about all this in a moment. during the past day , 184 combat engagements took place, this is a lot, it is actually more than when volokh tried to capture bahmud and... now the most attacks were in the pokrovsky direction, where our armed forces repelled 55 enemy attacks and the general staff lists almost all settlements in this direction, where the events took place hostilities and says that the greatest concentration of attacks was near novgorodivka, but from this statement it is difficult to understand exactly the status of this settlement right now,

because we know that it was the line of grodivka and novogrodivka that was supposed to become the same... which had to significantly delay the enemy's advance, for this there were at least all the geographical prerequisites that we have today, the fact that the southern and central part of novogrodivka is now under the control of russian troops, an insignificant area near the terekons is held, we know that the railway passes through novohorodniki and further to the west there are two terekons about... one for the western part and the railway, one for the eastern, and in fact, now the otsikons are the same, well, they are disputed, there are fighting near this section. that is, what can we say that now, in fact, the enemy, having started operations for novohorodivka on august 21 , advanced 3 km during the week, and this is

actually a noticeable advance, and further on. there is still one line of defense in novogorodivka, and then the section to toretsk actually begins, somewhere within 10 km, now we can see several infographics showing the railways that approach pokrovsk and the highways that also go through pokrovsk, this just shows the importance of pokrovsk from the point of view of logistics, because through this settlement, through this city, it is precisely the provision of both the eastern and the southern section. of our front, and the capture of pokrovsk itself, well, it can create significant problems for our logistics. can we say that pokrovsk will be captured? i think that such statements are premature, because now the enemy is trying to move south faster, securing a certain flank of his advance, this will take the enemy some time.

as for pokrovsky himself, there is such a conclusion, in particular, well, one of our ancient structures, that's right. from the center of defense strategies, which estimates that the enemy will be able to reach pokrovsk by mid-september, but will not be able to capture it, and the upcoming battle for pokrovsk, according to the estimates of the center of defense strategies, will actually be the culmination of the enemy's offensive operation in the southwestern theater of military operations in in the 24th year. i don't even know if this is an optimistic or a pessimistic scenario, but in any case we know that... this advance is taking place in view of the enemy's superiority in manpower, in view of certain miscalculations on our part, primarily after the enemy's capture the reedbed, which was on the high ground and actually... it was supposed to be like this, well, it was a section that was difficult to break through, but it was precisely because of the rotation that the enemy captured the reedbed, then there was such a certain dynamic on this part

of the front, there is a decision to strengthen the pokrovsky direction by means of means, there was a stake meeting on this topic the day before yesterday, i hope that such measures will be taken, but the impression is that it has a certain belated character, and in any case there is a risk that now we will be transformed into heroism. .. hide certain systemic failures in the preparation of the defense in this area, i will also say about another direction, about the kurdish direction, we know that yesterday oleksandr syrskyi said that the enemy transferred about 30 thousand personnel to kurshchyna to strengthen his group, this of course affects our advance, one of the ideas of the offensive on kurshchyna, as the syrian said, is to... withdraw enemy forces from the pokrovsky direction from the kurakhiv direction, we see that this is not happening yet, because the priority for the enemy is everything there remains an advance

in the cover area, but in any case we know that in a certain way inertia in the reaction, it will still affect the fact that the enemy will feel the actions on the kurshchyna and thus, maybe it really is in some way... sorry actions of our military in pokrovskoye direction, in particular as it happened in kharkiv oblast. if we talk briefly about the main advances in the kursk region, then first of all we should highlight several directions, that is, that in the most famous glushkovsky district, that is what is marked in yellow on our map, where the bridges are blown up, there the enemies are still trying to get this plot, they are trying to build. depontoon crossings instead of destroyed bridges, this area is 40 km wide and 20 km deep, and there the enemy is still trying to somehow maintain the defense,

and we are just waiting and exhausting just the possibility of securing this area with enemy forces, there are other directions - there are ongoing hostilities in the west of korenevo, this is an important settlement, the capture of which will then allow us to move... to rylsky, first of all, to control the rylsk-lhov highway. now we can see this rolling road on the map and there are also combat operations in the direction of lhovo and kursk, which is interesting that in two weeks the enemy near kursk has built engineering structures there 55 km long, but just almost close to kursk, probably counting on the worst scenario of hostilities. there are also hostilities east of. suzhit, the enemy has the largest number of personnel there, he is also trying to hold areas, and for us , on the contrary, it is important to expand the flanks, that is precisely to advance east of suzhi, and i repeat,

to seize the root and secure precisely the flanks of this bridgehead of ours in the kurdish region. we know that zelensky stated that the kursk operation is one of the points of ukraine's victory plan and is related to the second summit of the peace that ukraine wants to conduct, including the representatives of the russian federation, and this means that our military leadership will probably pay attention to the guidelines of the political leadership, from this it will maintain a bridgehead in this area, and it is extremely important to ensure the balance of power and means in this direction compared to other directions where our armed forces are conducting combat operations, then we will talk about our defense-industrial... complex and now we are recruiting our guest, and for now we will remember that yesterday the president of ukraine volodymyr

zelenskyi said that ukraine created and tested its first ballistic missile, let's listen to this video and this quote from president volodymyr zelenskyi, which is still a work in progress in ukraine, well, i thought that... talk about it, but i would like to have an assessment the society of this, precisely our people who work 24/7 at defense enterprises, the test of the first ballistic ukrainian missile was positive, and i congratulate our defense-industrial complex on this, and now we are joined by valentin badrak, director of the center for research of the army, conversion and rosobo military analyst and writer, mr. valentin, welcome, nice to see and hear you, mr. sergey, greetings, very happy, as always, to join espresso and discuss

various controversial issues, esp. well , first of all, of course, i am interested in one topic today, i know that you are quite familiar with a number of workers who are involved in the creation of missile weapons and our missile program, i know that the enemies are also watching our programs, so we need to find such a balance, so as not to say too much and convey certain information to our viewers, so that they have an understanding of when and where ukraine is moving with its missile program, and the first question i would like to address to you is that the president... announced the successful testing of the e-e ballistic missile, which project is being discussed in general terms, about what technical parameters can we talk about now? well, first of all, yes, let's start with the fact that, in order to be clear in retrospect, yes, this morning we had a series of powerful strikes on russian facilities, and after that the president announced that

one of the missiles was on the scale. yes in a series, that is, in fact, we concluded that such a long-term work with a cruise missile was, well, it came to a logical continuation, to a logical development, we are already talking about a ballistic missile, whether it will be thunder or whether it will be for the saps, it is difficult to say now, it seems to me that it is not so important, it is important , actually, the creation of a ballistic missile in ukraine, because... this is something that the enemy cannot cope with. we have watched many times how missiles, american tactical missile complexes atak from the 90s of development, as early as 91 , they were used, and the vaunted russian means of anti-aircraft missile defense cannot withstand these old, let's say it

frankly, old technologies. now a ukrainian ballistic missile appears, will it be, can it be considered old, can it be considered new, i mean technologically, it seems to me that it is a mix, because i really don't want to waste a lot of time, but we remember we are carrying out a program of collective threat reduction, the nanolugar program, which, which us, which us very seriously, well... er, i would say so, weakened, yes, and the enterprises of this industry, of this branch, well, i personally was in 1998 at pivdenmash, when the last production capacity of a strategic ballistic missile was destroyed, and in addition, various other capacities were lost, but now the situation is completely different with our, shall we say, trust.

to us, yes, ukrainians have earned with their blood that we receive some technologies, on the one hand, ukrainian enterprises have a significant part of technologies independently, and on the other hand, they need to be accelerated, i stand by the fact that we need the development of military technical cooperation for development of this ballistic missile, that is , you are hinting that, in principle, the development of this missile program should be based not... on our competences, which are partly present, partly lost, and also rely on cooperation with our partners when it comes to certain key components, in particular there may be fuel, perhaps guidance systems, in order to speed up the creation of this type of weaponry, yes, we need more than just a process, yes, that we created a ballistic missile and now we are trying to develop it, because the reproduction to syria has a certain, certain period of time, i would very much

like this period of time to be. no more than a year, and if we want to make it a really serious matter, then firstly, the vertical of support and management should be from the president through the ministry of defense, go to the industrialists and coordinate in this way, and secondly - the issue of military-technical cooperation, again, strategic issues through the president and then the minister of defense and then even lower industry, in our country... this vertical does not exist, it must be created, this is the first time, the second time, we know very well, that we asked for attack missiles, and now the companies north upgroom and raid on are developing the latest precision strike missile, with a range of up to 1000 km, although the basic model...
