it is clear that this is a war in a war, there is no other way, but it is the ukrainian side that must win, the closer the armed forces of ukraine are to kherson, the more i understand that the local population and the partisans will feel more confident. the occupiers have in mind the russians to cooperate with the medical teachers there, but what is notable is that they do not go to cooperate with them there, there are some isolated cases, that is, it is really this resistance of the local population, the rejection of the russians it is in the n-predominant mostly and does it demoralize the russians themselves, who are used to such an easy occupation of the crimea in relation to the easy occupation of a part of the donbas there, and here they are told no system of the kherson oblast, that's all they took for, uh, it's always a file, uh, always a referendum first of occupation the creation of the ruble zone from the vertical er management of the region does not work. nothing works. and the

main reason is precisely because the people in them want it, well, it is impossible, it is possible to somehow restrain the people there by the force of arms, limit the er curfew , constant checks of these roadblocks dozens yes, there are hundreds in the region. if you take the whole region, they can do it all, but they can’t torture our people to work for them . in fact, we have a not very large number of people who agreed to work with him . ambitions of people , that is, it is a chance for people who agree to occupy some positions there, that is, with our system, they did not have a chance to get this position there or in the absence of any ability or experience, therefore, people who do not have the experience of not understanding how to manage the processes, they now receive some positions, but this worsens the situation in

the region even more, because they cannot organize anything at all, not the educational process, nor medicine. degrees uh, it's us yes, you were there in general, it's not humanitarian there's a crisis, there's a catastrophe there simply wouldn't be medicine and that's what they're worried about more than anything, lately they're forcing not even the heads of uh hospitals, namely from doctors there to dismiss everything from hospitals, to write applications and to write an application for employment, exactly the information as only somewhere there, some one doctor agreed , the head of something and the other doctors refuse well, i think everyone perfectly understands that the occupiers are not there for long thank you very much take care of yourself thank you for your struggle against the occupier for ukraine yuriy sobolevskyi, the first deputy chairman of the kherson regional council and the head of the executive apparatus

about the situation in kherson and the kherson oblast, and now viktor bondarenko, an expert analyzes the politics of viktor, i congratulate you, i am glad to see and hear from you. well, you are from sumy oblast, and there are questions about sumy oblast as well, but they are based on the volumes that were massed yesterday, but if i may say a few words about the situation in sumy oblast in general, and then i would like to ask only questions about political situation i am interested in whether putin will pressure lukashenko and why russia is creating this threat from the north or to draw our troops from the south, in particular, whether they are really planning this well, let's go to sumy oblast, if possible, please more than a quarter of all communities and we have 52 communities in sumy oblast region of eh are in a situation where they can be shelled not just by rockets, but how can any city be shelled in ukraine a-a they

are under fire from their artillery mortars well, they can cover up to 10 km there with mines , they can further up to 30 km to cover with artoy, er, there are some of them . their hails can finish 40 km away, that is, er, part of sumy oblast is now under er, under er, constant shelling, it feels like they have some kind of rocking batteries that travel from place to place , but today er, they were shelled there, for example, in the south uh, the middle of the community, they are going down there to the south, tomorrow they will shell yampilsk, the day after tomorrow, gluhivsk, and some battery will pump out shelling and shelling. we had the impression that the enemy was surrounded and that we had to hold, well, large, uh, large forces around us. and in fact, we actually have a front because of that. that well, of course, the losses of our terbats in

sumy are not as significant as our losses, for example , near severodnotsk, we will be frank, yes, but they are. because we do not respond to them under shelling. they will fly there, but it's worse that we have constant victims among the civilian population. yesterday , one of our communities was shelled with something similar to phosphorous weapons, and it immediately became hotter. moreover , one boy. well, where did it start that he stepped on this very thing the guy also got a big uh if he was like that uh and now they are investigating whether it was really phosphorus or not phosphorus but the rumor has already gone one more thing that uh it seems uh what are the russians doing they are sowing panic i.e. the fifth column is still here, i.e. some of them are throwing some

there is such information. and now putin will come again, now putin is already coming in. already now, on another day, the sums will be evacuated, because now they will come in, and this is the sowing of panic and these shaking batteries, this is all so that we keep a few thousand here our military and they could not use them for rotation, for example, there in the east or the south, and this is really the case when the russians , having a strategic initiative, can in fact, with small forces, bind more significant ukrainian forces to themselves. well, i cannot say exactly how military, but this means that we keep several times more troops on the sumy gimbals than they do due to the fact that they shoot, they shoot back,

but this is a political situation. there are a lot of people who want to go over, including among the armed forces and among the population, that it is time to go over to the side of the enemy, and let them now throw out some troops from severodonetsk so that they can go on the road to the course. i am already talking about politics. we are running out of time. but i think that the famous sumy partisans would definitely make a fuss in the kursk region. well, while we are fighting back our land from the enemy, thank you very much for your comments. bondarenko, an expert who analyzes politics, he himself from sumy region told about the situation not in the region where in fact, it is very restless, as in many other regions. unfortunately for our country, actually , about the results of the war. serhiy zgurets is ready to tell this day. he will tell much more in more detail in more detail. experts who will help us to understand this or that situation serhii i congratulate you, please, i will start with conceptually important news, it is about

the fact that a project is being prepared on the training of ukrainian aviators for the piloting of nato combat aircraft, such a bill was submitted to the american parliament by the republican congressman adam enchiger, jointly by the members of the us committee from of the democratic party. by the way, both initiators of this law, former pilots of the ukrainian air force, kinsiger, notes that this bill will enable the united states to start training ukrainian pilots on f-15 or f16 fighters until the white house itself determines the supply of such aircraft to ukraine. the congressman also published a photo with two of our pilots. earlier, a video of a ukrainian pilot with the call sign jus was circulated on the internet , where he called for ukraine to receive modern western

fighter jets. the russians have a numerical a significant numerical advantage as well as a technology advantage their planes are much why their radars are much more powerful their missiles fly unfortunately much further it will be very useful to get replenishment as well soviet planes instead of those that we unfortunately lost, but precisely for air superiority precisely for victory. we need new ones today, and pilot jus and his colleague are in washington. actually, they represent the tactical aviation brigade that is fighting today on the mig-29. these are soviet planes that can counter russian

more modern fighters precisely at the expense of combat training and the skill and heroism of our planes, but what exactly do they expect from such a bill ukrainian military we include in our conversation the spokesman of the air force of ukraine of the forces of ukraine yuriy ignat p yuriy i congratulate you i congratulate you please tell me the details of these negotiations in washington why exactly the pilots are in the united states and not the command of the air force well i want to tell you right away that the negotiations are being conducted at the government level, more like a global level let's say yes eh this is a visit of our military pilots, and not only pilots, there is also a representative of the anti-aircraft missile forces, representatives of the anti-aircraft missile forces are actually representatives of those families who have to fight today. yes, because it would be

it's not fair, yes, no, it would be wrong not to listen to their opinion, eh, no, eh, not to ask people, eh, how is it to fight with this technique, how to fight with those, eh? because we were shooting a video. actually, they are going, they went to the united states at the invitation of one of the advocacy groups that we have created, and these are volunteers, by the way, there are famous people there, and this identification group also includes representatives the ministry of defense of the general staff actually invited military pilots to washington, dc to communicate and speak on television to communicate with american privates and senators and congressmen at informal personal meetings to talk about the realities in which the air force is today just to talk about how they fought in the first days of the war how they carried out

aggression and how the enemy's defense of kyiv was going and anti-aircraft missile forces, and actually fighters and other tactical aircraft. how are combat sorties conducted today? there have already been quite a few such meetings. this is a photo from the senator who is actually the author of the bill that you mentioned about the training of military keys , it is not the only one in the network on twitter for at least a dozen times. i have seen photos of our pilots and senators and congressmen who spoke with them, who listened to them and understood the auxiliary the needs that exist today in the air force, which must be heard, and the actual weapons that the air force needs, which today have not received any of the types of heavy weapons, we are talking about aircraft of any type, and anti-aircraft missile weapons, actually, we are only talking about uh, portable exercises, missile systems that

ukraine received today, and this does not solve the problem of uh, range, well, if we say our means in simple language, then what pilot juice said in the video, yes, for victory, for air superiority, we need new modern equipment is fighter jets, technological fighters that will not be inferior to russian models, and then we will be able to actually block the nabu e-e with our own forces, just as we need anti-aircraft missile systems, which today are not weapons of western countries that can simply resist an aggressor at long distances. what about this visit? well, the pilots were indeed invited to a number of american tv channels. it is clear that the american government, well , american society should er, in a democratic world, er, there should be a discussion of this problem and, in principle, appropriate decisions should be made as legislators, so relative. therefore, it is extremely important for us

that from different sides, both from the president's office and from the ministry of foreign affairs, both from the military themselves and from the other side, from ordinary pilots and ordinary anti-aircraft gunners, words were heard so that they would be heard at different levels from others, from all sides, what exactly is needed in ukraine, what exactly is the weaponry that ukraine needs to defend its state from the terrorist state, are there any expectations regarding the time frame for the implementation of these initiatives because time affects the enemy attacks us with missiles and we need protection in front of seven well , we are now more is really a determining factor in the hostilities today in the east of the country, actually. now we will also seriously worry about anti-aircraft missile systems, this is easier than the actual fighters, because, well, as we know today, the main achievements that we have today

are those downed airplanes, helicopters in general, air targets are targets - these are still anti-aircraft missile forces today in this indicator e-e increasing each time there will be literally several there two weeks ago the air defense forces shot down 500 of their targets and in the future continue to perform tasks with western armed forces, especially anti-aircraft missile forces, will certainly be easier in terms of time, what you are asking about with airplanes, of course the situation will be more difficult because it will be possible to train combat pilots to fly after this draft law, which, god willing, will come into force and be adopted by the government the political decision to train our pilots will be determined by the type of aircraft that we will be able to, probably, it can be delivered in ukraine. well, then those combat pilots who have a

raid on the mig-29 on the su-27 on other types of aircraft will be able to go to the united states for retraining, to fly is not a problem, to learn there is a matter of weeks er, probably yes, but actually to use its weapons, er, to learn to fight on an airplane, both in the composition of a single one and in the composition of a pair in the composition of a squadron, this is a slightly different question here we need a little more time, but it cannot be delayed, the sooner we start this process or it starts, the faster we get the protection of our airspace with it , one of the pilots said during the negotiations in washington that today there are more pilots than airplanes, and so he said that the intensity of our flights is somewhere between 20-30 flights per day, is it a sign or is it a sign that we are really critical of even quantitative e-e indicators in order to maintain the balance of an athlete, well, i want to say that in us and er on

february 24, the same way, and in the course of hostilities, it is clear that we will also hide our comrades after spending time . unfortunately, well, we are losing equipment, as we now talk about equipment, we really need it. so , we conduct sorties every day to destroy it, in fact it happens every day, that’s why we really need equipment, well , we first mobilized pilots. that is , there were many applicants even from abroad, australia, africa, literally all continents , literally in the first months of the war, they planned applications for well, a lot of transporters understand

that this is more widespread, such a civilian civilian side, you are mobilized, but we have the kharkiv university of the air force, which today wants to be concentrated somewhere in ukraine, its cadets, teachers and so on, but graduations of pilots and indeed pilots took place today, we have enough questions only about how we will continue to train them and it is really possible that we need to study friends with an eye on western-style equipment, there is only what kind of plane it will be and uh and what kind in this way, the training mechanism will be because not only pilots are the only ones. some other details: sometime in 2019, ukraine

directly addressed the boeing company, which is the manufacturer of f-15 aircraft, there was a letter from the then minister of defense of the year and a half to the management of the boeing company regarding the supply to ukraine of multifunctional f-15 fighters and tsn red light training aircraft hall actually, this letter was the first such major breakthrough regarding the choice of an aircraft that was really needed by the armed forces, and in that period precisely the preparation of this letter and the possibility of assembling aircraft at the base of dp antonov was preparing the then head of the dp antonov and now an officer of the armed forces of ukraine oleksandr los, he is in touch with us oleksandr i congratulate you if you

know the details of the congressman's bill directly, which provides for the training of our fighter jets on american aircraft of the new generation, how can we avoid re-entering the new round of negotiations with boeing regarding the acquisition of modern f-15 fighters and training aircraft, what should we do or there was really real progress in this matter 10 that it is necessary to directly enter into negotiations with the boiler, and it is also necessary to work with the state department of the us department of defense for this work, since there are already concrete measures even published in the american media regarding the fact that pilots will be trained for the r15 and or for the f16, and these are not mutually exclusive planes, they mutually complement each other, this work has been ongoing for 5 years, i was also in the sewers back in 2017, you correctly

showed that the letter i was working on was signed by the minister of defense in 2019, but that was not the end either, because in september 2019 the most important event that took place was the visit of dp antonov by representatives of the state debate and the department of defense of the united states, at which it was already announced that the t-7 aircraft had been approved for delivery to ukraine and through the dpa antonin, in fact, as then the leader, my soul ached for dp antonov, that's why i i was just looking for a job in the military-technical field in the directly connected states of america, so and once again, it's about, and about training, it's about the r16 plane , and it's definitely about the f15 plane. why are you talking directly about the f-15, because a lot experts say that the countries around us have f16 and this, in principle, will be enough,

let's compare the technical characteristics of people, the speed of the planes, the speed of all the 15th is 20% higher than the f16 plane, the tactical radius is 30% more than the f16 plane at er, with a test combat combat load under the conditions in which the largest eastern country in eastern europe is located, ukraine cannot be compared even with radii, so that in the conditions in which ukraine is now, and it is surrounded by radio-technical means, one of the most advanced in the world, one of the only small elements of this radio-technical complex of the russian federation is the il-20 plane, a jammer and accompanying intelligence,

what is it called, which is capable of jamming systems radars and such and such. that is why we need weapons and we will also recall that at the beginning of this week it was announced that the mkv 1 reconnaissance aircraft will not be delivered to ukraine. this is very interesting story, too. but let's leave that part as uh, the american uh, the american investigation of the community revealed another scheme of the russian agency in ukraine, which tried to drag this uh, vulnerable unmanned complex into ukraine, this is an unmanned complex with a very but if we see weapons oleksandr, to the f-16, you are not talking about weapons. now we have a situation when the enemy is deploying a significant number

of air defense equipment around our borders, the s-300 s400, can the f15 ensure a breakthrough of this defense? impressions of the air defense systems of the russian federation and thus provide the prerequisites for conducting a counteroffensive in those territories that we are going to liberate. which is the first on the market with a range of 20 km. excuse me, we need weapons, the so-called stands, that is, those with a large radius of action, which even if the aircraft will enter the detection zone of the s400, which you have already mentioned, which are already scattered on the borders of ukraine, but at least the means of destruction, that is, the s-400 missiles, will not be able to shoot down the carrier plane directly and will not be able to immediately shoot down the currently barely visible air missiles and planning air

bombs . e-e means of destruction s300 s400 just need an aircraft of class f-15 - it is comparable to summer 27 in fact 15 - it is already prototype 127 f16 aircraft by radius from comparison with e-e to some extent the load capacity was able 29 but it even slower than them 29 and 16 i mean, mr. master, there are already 16 airplanes, there were multifunctional detectors, including air pain, do you regularly communicate with the management of the boeing company, how is the attitude of this company towards the prospects of supplying the f15 to ukraine, absolutely nothing has changed and with all the soul and heart of the company, because he supports the fact that in ukraine, this

issue is now divided into two stages. the latest the newest modification that has just begun to enter the air force of the united states at the moment it is said that we immediately need aircraft existing modifications f-15i or r15a or j - these are almost the same aircraft in terms of equipment in order to already enter the battle and for the future yes we will need to equip our air force with aircraft of the 15 x class, what are the financial mechanisms for that? months and the supply of aircraft in order to understand the short-term prospects for the implementation of this plan, i will speak carefully now, he does not want to

once again give the russians grounds for speculation and maybe when planning counter-attacks well, it is not about the fact that we need several air regiments, it is about units of such aircraft i am sure that there will be a few planes in the countries of the alliance of the united states, and 15 in order to solve the problem of ukraine, well, that's dozens of planes, he doesn't want to talk about it. thank you for this comment, we understand that there are prospects for receiving f-15 aircraft, given that the congress is ready to support such decisions with its bills, and we hope that this will happen in the future, which will allow us to really conduct e -counteroffensive aviation under the cover of f-15 fighters oleksandr thank you thank you for this conversation, mr. serhiu. thank you. and we will return to the situation on the fronts, and the main thing that really worries us is

the situation around severodonetsk, in fact, we are talking about the fact that in view of the military actions that the enemy carried out the use of such and such artillery around this city, we are leaving this city, where for three weeks we have implemented successful defensive tactics, destroying the enemy's personnel, we have hidden a significant number of enemy forces, we have inflicted significant losses on him, and we are leaving severodonetsk and moving to more protected defense lines which already prepared, now on this graphic you see the situation that was directly related to all the zones where the enemy is trying to advance, the cities that he captures and the actions of our troops that concern our units have been assigned to dangerous territories. it should be noted that in fact we were able to successfully carry out the tactical task of inflicting

the maximum amount of losses on the enemy, and the abandonment of north donetsk is actually a good example of how to use limited opportunities in such difficult conditions . yazanu around syrodonetsk, but we understand that we need to learn skillfully, give the fifth information about the actions of combat units, we believe that they are really armed the forces fulfilled their task 100%, and holding the city of severodonetsk for a long time, they absolutely fulfilled their combat task for today, i have everything, mr. vasyl, i give you the floor, thank you very much serhii serhii zgorets my colleague, director of defense express and host of the column military summaries of the day about uh, the most important thing uh, from what happened today and on the fronts and here is a very interesting thing about

aviation, about the prospects for ukraine's cooperation with the united states of america literally in a minute, the online forum of the kyiv security forum will start online broadcast online discussion e this security forum e-e at least there will be good evening we are from ukraine vasyl zima's big broadcast my name is cool zima two hours of air time until 21:00 two hours of your time
