you will find out, first of all, secondly, i would urge you to name the names and positions of these russians, if we are talking about tolstoy, the vice-speaker of the state duma of russia, then this is not his first statement that the vinnytsia fascist, which he did before and we are not us, and in europe not paid attention, and when he says that we will reach poland, now we will reach the borders with poland, he simply shows the same thing that putin says, not all of them, that is, they want to go as far as possible. they want to go to poland, they want to go to the baltic countries, they want to go to they want to go to moldova through transnistria germany and repeat but in order for this not to happen , actions are needed and every criminal must be called by name, i will honestly tell you that these tribunals will take many years, but the tribunal of history must come today, and i really hope that they will not succeed, that it will spread

to more the next generation of russians, because if this is the case, we will always have an enemy criminal government and an attack on the state on our borders. that's why it's not about putin, it's about another situation where ukraine plays another role, a historical role in order to avert this threat in the future. talk about it, let’s talk about it, she’s already ready for cleaning, alain, i say good evening to you, good evening, vasyl, greetings to the viewers espresso, unexpectedly for many ukrainians, the irish band youtube, which had previously been supported ukraine eh and eh well of course it was a

surprise to the baloks when everyone started to correspond there oh my god oh my god turn on youtube there there is a live concert on youtube and they went down to the subway together with the military and sang in particular stand by ukraine bono front mangurd -om said that today you will show up not only for your freedom but for the freedom of people all over the world. by the way, taras topolya, the frontman of the antitila band, who is also already a world celebrity, by the way, together with the musicians from bona and eje, also sang. let's listen to how it it was

not at all surprising that the youtube group supports ukraine because they have always been so proactive in the political and humanitarian sense since the beginning of the 80s, and you already know that this has become such an integral feature of these musicians. probably, in some cases, they are even better known for their humanitarian activities rather than music, but only sometimes because they are musicians. they are also cool with uh. actually, since 80 , for example, in 84, they did not speak out against the famine in ethiopia, for example, they gave many concerts with the collected money, they did not send money there their charitable foundations, and in particular, it was also the case that he came with his wife to ethiopia to see what they are doing there against the diseases of poverty and injustice, mainly they

started their activities and from the countries of africa and asia and then moved to europe in particular they sang and somehow illuminated the events in sarajevo during the bosnian war. they even have a song called miss sarajeva, that is, miss miss mestorajeva . such a charity concerts are like life at well, of course, when in 2010, the newspaper of the bookkeeper of the novel is such an official vatican newspaper. she once compiled a list of bugu's acceptable rock songs . in the 10th year, she changed her mind and youtube yogurt was included in the list of such god-led rock performers who carry goodness and spirituality,

etc. they use various problems in the world in order to make themselves a plus point for some kind of promotion, and just as they were accused of frequent closeness to the authorities well, who does not avoid such accusations about the band kalush, now such an official opening of the eurovision song contest has already taken place, and they had such a the turquoise carpet is not a red carpet, it's the turquoise band kalush , they were giving interviews and in general. on this corridor, they were with ukrainian flags, the presenters also addressed them in ukrainian. on the video from this march of theirs, you can hear the audience shouting glory to ukraine, you see, they have already learned many of our expressions, and i will remind you that ah, i will remind you that on may 10,

the first round is already waiting for us, we will watch it, and now i will say that kalush of the orchestra and oleg ksyuk, in particular , at the eurovision song contest, he said that he reminded me about mother 's day and congratulated my mother, in particular, you can look again at ms. stefania, eh, oleg posted a photo of everything on instagram and called for such a flash mob to take pictures with your mothers , put them on instagram, tag me and he will repost and you all will become famous with your mothers, i you can't take a picture with your mom yet , but i'll pass on hello to you, hello to you. well, today, among the fans of the kalush orchestra and among the fans in general, there is a video of the eurovision song contest in which the band rasmus, known at the time and even now, is possible, if you are his do you remember they had such

a super move, not indesherius, it was called er, we can remember now, they became quite famous, one of the most famous such finnish bands of their time, they were and er, now they came to eurovision, they say that after two years of the pandemic really wanted some kind of drive and they really like stefania's song and they even tried to sing it with their interesting finnish accent and that's with a lot. so you see. they first performed on the sidelines of the eurovision song contest together with our kalash and orchestra, we can listen to it now how they sing stefania in the car and then how our kalush okys play with them not on the pipe indycharius koliya mom moms palia flourishes in the field or on the

ground if you don't take it well and finally a curious thing friends from the russian world the thing is, the russians are preparing a parade not only of adult russians, but also of little russians, so that you can get used to it from childhood . to these poor unfortunate children, ah, but here they are, uh, unfortunately, they grow up in such an unhealthy atmosphere, uh, it's not healthy, not only because we have such a visual series, but also because they have to listen to what is said when they walk in such a mini-parade

let's listen to an excerpt behind the tankers air parade heads a group of four planes made up of pilots preparatory group droplet leader of the group older pilots sent meerkova krystyna andreevna a lot what can you do about it i have everything vasyl i agree with the words i said to my colleagues today is a day to remember yati reconciliation, i hope that we and dali will celebrate this day together with the whole of europe. to vasyl , culture during the war is the most important thing for today, lena told medper, we will talk about the war sergey zgurets is with me and my colleague, co-host and expert of defense express, mr. sergey. i congratulate you, well, let's

start. in us, well, in general, the situation on the fronts, but today we start with the events on the island of snake island, bad luck for the russian fleet. continues and there is a lot of interesting news that is directly related to this object , today it became known that two russian raptor boats were destroyed and a russian mi-8 helicopter was destroyed, which was carrying out an operation on on the snake island, this was done with the help of the ukrainian baryakhtar tb-2 complex, and before that, on may 7, there was another interesting event when two of our attack aircraft bombed the snake island and destroyed a significant amount of ammunition and equipment that was located there at that time on the island, in fact, all these events, uh,

the bad luck begins somewhere on april 26, when the russian cruiser moskva was destroyed before that, and in fact, air defense against the island disappeared over the island, and since then the tb-2 coastal defense forces have been providing such the constant destruction of russian military facilities , we calculated that it is better somewhere from april 26 to today, all the means of air defense that were on this island were destroyed, five boats, one helicopter and one communication vehicle, if you count it together, then it works out to about 80 million dollars, that is, in fact, one baryakhtar did such a colossal job of dangerous russian equipment. i think that this trend will continue in the future. by the way, i was talking about the destroyed enemy equipment before we let's move on to another topic, i will say that the enemies themselves are helping us to fight, in particular, in the kherson

region. as far as i understand, in the south of ukraine, the enemies with their sunblock system from these flamethrowers destroyed themselves, well, one unit fired at another unit and there they destroyed a large amount of equipment and manpower. here they also help us to think. this was a message from the 60th separate infantry brigade, that is, which said that it is very good that we have such enemies, which of them are something special. well, let's now move on to the main trends, what is happening at the front, what is important and revealing, not just to know what is happening, to understand what is happening, the counteroffensive in the kharkiv direction and the situation in the arc of raisins , rubizhne to fall. you know, they look at it from their position, but mr. serhiy generally looks at the situation and the future in this way, please, well, the situation related to hostilities has both positive and alarming trends

there are interesting trends related to last week, where directly the ukrainian troops managed to significantly push the enemy away from kharkiv, if you remember, we talked about the russian lozova, where we pushed the enemy back for 20 km , and today we are in the center of attention directly, the town of stary saltiv, and all these two cities, says that, in fact, today the war depends not so much on supplies from stingers, but directly on artillery, because 80% of the goals are carried out by artillery on the battlefield, and in order to carry out this attack on the enemy, we had to to collect a significant amount of artillery and actually knock out the enemy using the advantage of artillery, i was told by people who directly participated in the hostilities in the direction of stary saltiv, so you can

say that our artillery preparation and the actions of our artillerymen were so dense that the pause between artillery attacks lasted a maximum of 15 minutes, and that's just right made it possible to significantly advance the enemy north of kharkiv and further it is even possible to move to the border with the russian federation. of how we use artillery to liberate our territory well, in general, this is how the front line around kharkiv moved in the month from april to may, in fact, we had an interesting infographic that literally missed a second before this and it is important to see how the borders that we control have changed, here we see offensives of our troops in the direction of the old and salts after artillery training. and now we see the front line at the beginning of march and the situation that today we see as

a significant amount of territory. we managed to liberate using completely new approaches with a rate exactly let's say yes to the means of impression yes well now let's talk about what our army will do next in sorry and in this direction and er well maybe also in other important directions so that we understand how it can develop further the situation in this as we, how can they be called, by the way. if compared with the kursk arc, it can be called the kharkiv donbas arc, or how can it be called the spirit from the raisin? the situation that now, in this arc, starting from raisin and reaching popasna, a large number of our troops and enemy troops are concentrated, and in each direction we start directly there at rubizhnye, the krimin estuary, there severodonetsk popasna, active hostilities continue where the enemy is trying to

advance into the depths of our territory because according to the opinion of the enemy, it remains unaltered, that is, conditionally speaking, to ensure the advance of troops in the direction of kramatorsk, there directly to the raisin, down from donetsk, up, and these green rings which are standing around each town along this arc , there is fighting, but there is no advance, but the accumulation of russian troops is quite significant , and in some directions there is an advance on our territory, this directly applies to the pass where we moved to the second line of defense after the enemy artillery is dense enough plowed through our defensive positions for a long time. and now, by the way, on this information, we can see how many e forces are located in the middle and in the e-e in the along this arc and in the

relatively speaking, we see that in total about 60 enemy battalion static groups are located along this contact line, we have about 7 of our brigades and other mobile battalions located in the area of ​​this, let's say, arc, and relatively speaking , we still have reserves that allow to balance the actions of the russians, if they try to look for vulnerable places in our defense there, our reserves allow us to say so, well, to balance and gain our positions, by the way, i saw the video today well, you can obviously trust the car - it is the military themselves filmed how they were cleaning up after the battle after what they had done to the enemy, and the enemy. well, there the bodies refused to be taken by their enemies, and there they somehow had to dig mass graves, and mass graves are claimed by our military to be exactly in

kharkiv oblast, they were digging for these soldiers from the infamous 64th brigade, which putin gave the rank of guards , the same brigade that committed such sadistic and marauding atrocities in the kyiv region in bucherpin , they are already there, the time of the other side. the enemy must be lower. especially with such an enemy. i think that there is a special motivation in our army to destroy them. but of course, such people should be captured. well, as they say, it is good that there is no need to take too many risks. well, the fact remains the fact is that this brigade and this is putin's cynicism, to give titles as if you are there, well done, you are from the guards, and throw in the towel so that there is no witness, in principle , ideally. cynicism all the more that i am amazed that they really do not take away their killed soldiers, but in some positions they really dug ditches, dumped their

soldiers, covered them with earth and thought that this was the norm , so the number of russian military equipment where the killed mechanics and drivers are sitting, let 's say, killed on the spot, none of them does not extract, that is, in fact, this is a complete disregard of the human attitude towards its soldiers. well, it goes into any almost from the point of view of understanding how such an army can exist in general. to another question, we are just talking about the fact that the enemy, well, not only that, they are also very surprised when they see what kind of first-aid kits our soldiers have and what they are equipped with, how can they save themselves, it is very difficult to save one's health if you are wounded there, then you are already dead, god is with you, or there is someone there, or with you, and not taking them away in principle. well, why take them there and bring them home, let alone take into account the losses killed and killed. and with such an attitude towards your army, with such provision, not with such a criminal in general in

the principle of disregarding the lives of his soldiers. is it possible to think that putin will announce a general mobilization and perhaps start some kind of second phase of this war that has been going on for the 74th day already? everyone said about this sacred date, may 9, that allegedly putin can declare an end to it. there are resources for this, because you can throw meat. of course, you can, but why? well, in fact, these are the questions about mobilization, it is constantly raised as such a significant threat, as it were, for ukraine, but i think that it is so scary because she says that the question of mobilization has a political component on the one hand, and a military component on the other hand, the military component consists in the fact that the potential of the personnel of the russian army today has already been exhausted in the composition that, well, he took part in hostilities, it is the best there, uh, ground troops, 280,000 landing forces kyiv 50,000 of this sum, let's just say, two-thirds are combat units, they

entered the territory of ukraine, in fact, the entire combat potential of these two types of troops was exhausted during two months of hostilities combat tactical groups are staffed by a maximum of 60%, they need to be rotated for this, in fact , the number of personnel is twice the same as before the war, there are still about 100,000 personnel, at least there is simply none. and from the point of view of the military, they need new personnel, but this personnel will become without being ready only for three or six months there and now it is pumped even the announcement of this mobilization does not improve anything from the point of view of the introduction of hostilities, especially if we are talking about the fact that the british intelligence of other they say that the leadership of the army does not change, it does not change, and it is not in this way, it is not an increase in efficiency, on the other hand, the announcement of mobilization on may 9. i think that this is a

significant minus for putin, because de facto, it is a sign that something is not right so that means that there are significant defeats that have not been discussed before, and so i think that in fact putin will go to the russian leadership on the option of hidden mobilization, ignoring, let's say, the need for a general procedure. well, now about the thing that is also can significantly affect the course of the war and turn it in our direction. tomorrow we are waiting for the signing of the land lease by the us president joseph biden, but even without the border of the forest, ukraine will already receive a lot of weapons from our partners, starting from estonia and ending with the united states, slovakia , poland, germany, they give us weapons, maybe not in that amount for now if we wanted and not for such intensity of the war, but also it is thanks to god that they give and what is most important that these weapons go where they are supposed to go, well, in the overwhelming amount, we understand of course, anything can happen, but a significant number of weapons are allegedly reaching this, which is also a big plus. today i read how one american

military man said that the most important thing for us now is logistics, and he highly praises american logistics, how they worked quickly with the delivery of weapons to ukraine, there is something let's say 100 military transport planes flew to poland in a day. is this help that we are currently receiving, how powerful is it and how much does it already affect the course of hostilities? well, actually, i would like to say to your answer, move on from the previous question , telling you, er, russia is trying to announce mobilization because they are weapons, and we have no personnel , the situation is completely opposite in some directions. about the sun drinker and so, i repeat, this news was written by a separate infantry brigade, not mechanized, not motorized infantry, but simply infantry, which means that we really still have a lot of work to do to

to fully equip all our armed forces with equipment, the number of which has increased, taking into account the reserve and territorial defense corps, etc. technological due to the fact that we have to use here the equipment that we will receive for the formation of other approaches. we have received new howitzers. it is now announced that we will receive counter-battery radars from germany in the near future which we did not have before, there were, of course, american radars. but this german radar is much more powerful because they are allowed to react faster to threats on the battlefield and transmit data to new maps. and to open fire faster

is what will allow us to destroy the enemy's facilities on the further lines. and this is what makes our countermeasures against the enemy technological. and so our main cry for today is to find new forms of conducting hostilities, relying on new weapons and this is exactly what commander zaluzhnik is talking about, that we have to transform the army in a new modern direction, so today is exactly the period when we can do it at the expense of foreign military aid and we are already doing it ourselves, by the way, about the weapons and the consequences what can be done with these weapons not only at the front, but also, so to speak, in strategic strikes against the russian infrastructure and the military, there was now any infrastructure there, bridges, roads , it becomes a military resort in our country, too the adviser to the head of the ministry of internal affairs mr. andrusiv said today that the

crimean bridge will definitely be destroyed, the question is only when, well, i don’t understand why it is possible, the adviser to the head of the ministry of the interior says about this well, because in fact this topic worries everyone and we are so simple, and he simply took responsibility for it, gained courage said and i will say this because everyone says that it is not necessary, because then he will launch a nuclear attack, as if we invaded his territory. that don't hit in russian territory, in fact, the destruction of infrastructure is a key element of modern warfare, which we talked about earlier, the destruction of the kerch bridge remains a task. when we really have weapons, the distance to this bridge does not allow us to use the samples that we have today but america ketakams will appear, we know you have the opportunity to approach the necessary distance to the er bridge and carry out a strike that will destroy this er artery of the russian army, by the way , the crimean publics are already publishing there among

residents of crimea and people's panicked moods appear about the fact that they must somehow try to escape now and the fear that the ukrainians can strike is growing among them, and here are the key points that these residents of occupied crimea are talking about. i understand that it is more those who support russia or those who came there from russia, what are the weapons of such a ukrainian, then they say what does it mean here, the question is already somehow they do not understand it well , not anymore i hope that russia will protect in this situation well, we see that probably putin does not expected such unity on the part of the european countries that provided such a quick bridge in the supply of various models of modern weapons and the reaction of the united states from the point of view of the lend-lease law. and in general such unity that we have only seen before, well, except that let's say yes, well, before and during of the second world war against the fascists. and you. by the way, in our two minutes, i wanted to ask you. it 's not even a conspiracy theory. it's different information that comes from different sources. that's what i'd call it

about what's happening in the kremlin right now. the confrontation is going on there among the fsb military putin is separately looking at what and how to prepare a decision for him and that they cannot agree on whether to announce this mobilization or to throw additional forces, money and resources into the war because i want it they say the alleged military leadership in order to correct themselves in this way well, because we if they couldn't , give us more people, then we will be able to. and you already had enough people. putin prepared the army for several years, in principle, it was not enough for you. well , the question is whether these military men will be able to convince putin, i don't know others. yes so to speak, the levers of influence in the kremlin, so that the mobilization would be like this. i think that in fact we will literally wait until may 9, and i am a supporter of the approach that in fact they will go for the option of covert mobilization, where it will be let's say so, on the one hand, the personnel of the olympianized personnel will be invited to the army er contract workers of the wagnerites and er other

er people who are actually capable of fighting for money, the announcement of total mobilization is hardly possible precisely because of political considerations, because they claim that their operation is going correctly and without losses and yet again they are mobilizing people who are mainly in depressed regions absolutely st. petersburg moscow there maybe even novosibirsk some there yes these cities are not fighting thank you very much sergey zgurets expert defense express these were the military results of the day thank you very much well, we let's come back eh well, it's already been a week today and we'll be back literally in a moment from the first days of the war russia destroys ukrainian churches intercession church sviatohirska lavra st. george's church we would have decided that it was a coincidence if 90

years ago, the russian leadership did not destroy the church of the three saints in 1183. russians purposefully destroy ukrainian culture, as they did it 100, 200, 300 years ago. their goal is to take away our historical memory and national identity. the culture of the aggressor country will not be present on the international arena. of war crimes by russian troops against the cultural heritage of ukraine join the cultural resistance on espresso literally in a minute maybe more maybe less immediately after me, you will see the broadcast of the soko security forum on victory day
