with which bratislava is ready to transfer its mig -29 fighters to the air force of the armed forces of ukraine this is stated in the publication of the business insider publication, the scheme is actually simple slovakian authorities are ready to transfer the fighters to us after poland and the czech republic can take over the airspace of slovakia under their protection, in what period is this it will happen that it is not known what forces and means the czechs and poles need to cover the skies of slovakia is not revealed for completely understandable reasons well, the main thing is that our analysts write in defense express that a certain psychological barrier has been overcome, because in april slovakia handed over the s-300 anti-aircraft missile system to us, in return the usa, germany and holland deployed four patriot missile complexes, as far as possible that our combat aviation will be replenished with mig-29s and what functionality they have against what they can be used well , for the first time, if we are talking about migeto, these are fighter planes. these are the ones that are allowed to counter

air targets. that is, we are talking about uh, russian combat aviation and also uh, both fighter- bombers and directly about uh attack and amphibious helicopters. this is why it is important because we understand that the fifth month of hostilities is actually starting. of course, besides the russian side, the ukrainian combat aviation also suffered losses. let's talk about the size of these losses. well, we can't for now. but we have to understand that replenishing the fleet of combat aircraft is necessary in order to introduce an effective countermeasure to the air space forces of the russian federation, and of course , what about the transfer of these aircraft, we see that there is a question related to the covering of the airspace of the language should be provided until the

user does not receive the f15 or 16 planes there, from the point of view of ukraine, we need to get these mig-29 planes if possible. in the medium term, we will also receive f16-type aircraft and have, in principle, the opportunity to quickly equip our pilots with modern equipment, because we understand that the reserves even for such mig-29s in the event of a prolonged conflict in in the world, they are also not limitless, we agree with you at 16 in ukraine without being met by ambulances, yes well, training and high school with our aviators could be started already in any case thank you very much mr. bohdan live on the espresso tv channel at eight o'clock 32 minutes khrystyna yaskiv antin burkovskyi we are moving

on crows and guards of the south mrs. natali we congratulate you glory to ukraine glory to the heroes and you are interested all of ukraine with massed rockets shelling for several days already and the situation, in particular, in the kyiv region, in the northwestern and eastern regions , as well as in the central region, we are now trying to get and find out what the situation is with us this morning . in the south, it also started a little anxiously, but this again concerned mykolaiv region, but it was the artificial work of our anti-aircraft forces and enemy drones of the operational-tactical level, which tried to shoot down, simply scattered and aimed artillery or accurately knocked out, probably that is why the shelling did not happen, and now work is still going on

level of the mainland, we are gradually moving towards the kherson region, but as i have already noted, we are not yet reporting against our achievements in order to consolidate them and not lose them . it has some further goals, we understand that this is not shelling for the sake of shelling, you are not panic for the sake of panic, although the mayor of mykolayivskyi synkevych so extremely stressed not only the residents of this glorious city and ukrainians in general. well then the odesa military governor, who is he? the mykolaiv military governor, who is he , has significantly corrected the situation in that the main thing is

not to panic, because the monument is one of the weapons of hybrid warfare, if the city mayor or any representative of the authorities with so that people would evacuate well, it's simple caring for people is not sending any panic, there are absolutely no such warnings here that could cause increased concern this is a direct direct concern, that is, really 9 rockets that flew to mykolaiv, they created a certain noise , they created a certain aggression, and the hits they had were not so strong in terms of losses precisely because people are already aware that there may be shelling. were mostly covered by fire, but still, we see that the

enemy's insidiousness is too wide, well, it covers the whole of ukraine and even the absolute rear of the war can be under attack. at the moment, the regions are therefore not to neglect security measures, and if there is such the possibility to really evacuate children, small people, elderly people who already can, for example , serve themselves or quickly move from somewhere, that is, take such preventive measures before it can be very hot. because our operation on the snake is ongoing . results, and some of them are still being investigated, but for example, residents of odesa odesa region could hear this night and overhearing of what is happening. but in order to report what happened, what was achieved, what successes do we need

more data, so we will collect them and definitely report back, but it can also create panic so loud and bright it is a war of people nataliya gumenyuk spokesperson of the southern defense and security forces of the south that is the correct name of her position , i.e. not of the operational command, the head of the press of the center of the defense and protection force of the south, communication has now been restored, the editors of ms. natalia tell us, you can hear us, we can hear you, we can't see you, turning towards the snake island, that is, there is a certain progress in a positive direction. and this extremely happy yes, of course we are making our way , the operation is going as it was planned by the military command, so we call on the local residents not to worry about what they hear and to be a little happy somewhere inside, not

to announce what they hear, see and can brag about and show wait a little, then we will brag together and i understand that a similar situation in kherson oblast , mr. budanov, the head of the main intelligence department, said in an interview yesterday that we will see the results of the counteroffensive operation there sooner rather than later august, i simply ask you to note that this means that it is acting in the direction of the counteroffensive. they have already started. they need silence and a certain time. the counteroffensive has been going on for some time and it has its own characteristics. we are advancing. when it was not us, but the local deputies, on the occasion of somehow pleasing the local residents, to inform them that

something so joyful had happened, they told about our advancement, for example, to the berislav district, then literally immediately there was a massive helicopter raid on ee this area and six in what languages ​​were the rockets fired from a helicopter and hit local residents and houses and agricultural land? why is there such joy ? where the counteroffensive is taking place in our country, you should not underestimate the enemy, but there are certain moments that he still does not manage to see, and in addition, do not forget that the leadership that is waging this war from the kremlin only wants to hear about victories and when they they are told one thing actually happens another and then through the mass media such a

so-called help of the deputies such an event occurs and they become aware of it and the same creatures that are happening in the kremlin house then fly at us thank you ms. nataliya nataliya humenyuk the head of the press center of force defense and protection of the south worked live on the espresso tv channel well, there is important news before we include kyiv in the future. well-deserved in the past information space uh literally yesterday the deputy head of the president's office ihor zhovkva announced that the ukrainian authorities will not yet take steps to join nato due to the position of individual member countries fenen show times interviewed mr. zhovkva i will quote him we want so that nato has an understanding and recognition that ukraine is the cornerstone of the security system on the

european continent, if nato members do not recognize the real situation with what is happening in europe and ukraine, then this document will simply become with another completely unimportant piece of paper, the members of nato refused us our desire to become a member of the alliance in this direction, we are still getting away with any steps, well, it is interesting how panzhovka is going to fulfill what is written in our constitution, it is an extremely interesting moment, so we understand that we still have the primacy of our native constitution. well, accordingly, we should move in the direction of euro-atlantic integration. well, as they say, let's wait and see, although in fact this signal is extremely and once again extremely important, it is not just like that, a pretext for geopolitical freud is in touch with us . now our colleague tetyana litvinova, who is in the capital and hopefully quite close to the

epicenter of events in the shevchenkivskyi district, in order to inform us with all caution and responsibility what really happened. anyway, congratulations and we ask for a word khrystyna greetings to all espresso viewers, we are really in the very epicenter , we are in the shevchenkivsky district, uh, where the explosions rang out, where did the rockets that woke up the people of kyiv today, we already reported on that that there were four explosions and one or two rockets . they hit the residential building at the moment. it is impossible to say exactly how much. fire we have already talked with the mayor of the capital vitaliy klitschko, who is also here on the spot. he said that at the moment we know about three victims, they are hospitalized, but fortunately there are no

reports of victims yet, but under the rubble because the destruction of the upper floors has taken place, and people's voices can be heard, so now they are sorting out the rubble . they hope that people will be pulled out alive from there. there are a lot of rescuers, firefighters, more than 10 ambulances, so this is the information at the moment. i will add additional details of the message just now , also anton gerashchenko, the adviser to the minister of internal affairs reported that another hit was near the kindergarten there, vyrva near him near this building maybe later we will be able to follow closer to the house, they won't let us in, because rescuers are working there right now. we will just interfere there. at the moment, this is the situation in the studio. what is the estimated number of possible

victims, how many people may be under the rubble, this information is currently unknown . three hospitalized and they can't even say now exactly how many rockets were headed for the capital because there was information that there could be more than ten of them, we heard only four explosions and how many people were in the house at the moment is unknown, we know that this house is new, one part of it was occupied not so long ago , the other a couple of years ago, there could not be so many residents in the house, because there are still repairs if it is being carried out but there are people there under the rubble. at the moment , this is known. tatiana, taking into account how kyivans react to air raid signals, please tell me whether this hit was after the air raid signal was announced, the

air raid alert was announced at that time , it was announced twice the fourth 40 then there was an alarm reverberation and before the explosion, an air alarm was also announced , that is, this air danger signal, it was well, and i will also add that there is such smog in the capital now, the smell of smoke, that is, there is a fire right now continues judging by the kind of smog here now . well, tetiana would like to clarify in general about the mood in kyiv, it is not about public official press releases, but about the mood of the people of kyiv, that is, is there a feeling or has the feeling of anxiety increased, in particular , it is about the possible concentration of the enemy again with of the belarusian direction, yes, and accordingly, having already experienced february and march, i think that in kyiv they take such

warnings extremely seriously, although everyone is trying to calm us down , but it is actually about the mood, tell me a little more, people, well, here i would divide it into two directions: kyivans were a large part who did not leave all the time and they are already so much more well, they are also used to the alarm, that is, they are already less if they react to these explosions and the kyivans who left the capital they returned and when there were these active explosions they simply did not hear them when now periodically, there are rocket hits, of course it scares people, but i would like to point out that there is still no such excitement, panic, chaos, after all, it has been four months of war and people have to live in such conditions and, unfortunately, get used to air alarms and such of situations, although of course this

is alarming and, as the local authorities say, there are no safe places in ukraine now, and the capital is not an exception, because it is the capital of ukraine in general, and it was just this explosion for klitschko, by the way, he said about it that the previous entry of these winged there were rockets on residential buildings when the secretary general antoniy otelish was in kyiv, and this explosion , a missile strike, a series of missile strikes the day before , nato itself, that's why such things happen - this can only be called intimidation from the russian side. thank you, tatiana, for this excellent work. and for this wonderful inclusion of tetyana litvinova, our colleague from the espresso tv channel was working for you now dear viewers of the espresso tv channel well, khrystyna yatskiv and i are moving on, and it's time for such an intermediate consolidated analysis of the situation with the theater of combat

actions and in particular how does all this fit in for the second day in a row, rocket attacks on our lines in communication with the studio serhii zgurets, director of the information consulting company defense express p serhiu, we congratulate you, i congratulate you, yes, missile strikes throughout the territory of our country came under attack this time and the capital. well, not quite . let's say that for 100%, the air defense is still working, unfortunately, but according to my observations, we have somewhat lost steam in this sense, and the number of downed intercepted missiles cannot help but please, but as we can see, it is not without regrets of cases, if possible, a short brief analysis of our situation with air defense well, in fact, we have already seen for a long day in a row an unprecedented large use of cruise missiles, guided missiles that

the enemy uses for strikes throughout our territory, yesterday there were about 50 missiles launched using bombers here 22m3 from the space of belarus today we see the continuation of this story with the use of such payments - these are different starting points, if we are talking about kyiv, then according to the previous information that i saw there, but so far that it has not been confirmed by the general staff, the headquarters , in general, it seems that 15 rockets were fired, of which the left part was shot down, and four were shot down , and they reached the capital, but so far, i , like you, are focused on messages. now, the program is not on channels. having official information, but the statistics we see launched missiles and downed missiles indicate that the anti-aircraft defense is working, but in any case, we need to saturate it with more force and means and air defense systems

and our aviation, well, we understand sergey that way that the missile attacks should, so to speak, aim not only to inflict irreparable losses on our object of critical infrastructure. that is, it is not only about destruction, it is also about correcting the psychological state of our population. well, i would like to remind our tv viewers that there is a war going on in the country, so it should be very careful, but what goals do you think the enemy can pursue in this way, we understand that the adjustment of public sentiments comes into play absolutely correctly they talked about the fact that in the past, literally, uh, hmm, the mass attack that was yesterday, it was mainly directed directly at the places of personnel training, where our military conducts

training, just like that, all of these are at two training grounds right there around lviv, kyiv, zhytomyr near kyiv, they were well strike today we can see an option when a direct strike was carried out on kyiv, where directly a long time ago he says whether such strikes were carried out. because of direct attacks on the capital, because she says that the shevchenkivskyi district, where many administrative buildings are concentrated and where a large population lives, is where the capital, so to speak, has stopped perceiving a real military threat, now we see how the situation can affect the population, because it counts on it the enemy, but you are absolutely correct in that we must understand that we live in war conditions, depending on how many weapons the

aggressor uses. well, in fact, an attack on the decision-making center was announced. i can’t. what do you not know? can this be considered today's incident in kyiv as the same attack, but less so, there is an assumption that this is a kind of response to the destruction of the command post of the headquarters in izyum. as far as i understand, there is such a very careful information that this is the first very successful work in particular, the hypers that were hit, i will remind you once again in izyum at the command post, is it possible to draw such an analogy? well, i think that now there will be more of such better ones from the farmers if we still get a larger number, but in general, we have really moved into a phase where the enemy is trying to in some way, to organize a missile using our long-range means in the impression

that we will reach the level of hijacking, say a strike against a strike for some specific target. i think that in fact we should not simplify the situation to such an exchange of missile strikes, we are talking about the fact that the enemy uses artillery and missile to automobile weapons today are the main means and destruction of our positions and the main means of political such psychological influence, this is a permanent component of our current situation. of our state, in particular, it is about the fact that our troops stayed in severodonetsk, on the one hand, we understand that this positively manages to preserve the manpower, to save the lives of our fighters directly, on the other hand, we understand that this weakens the defensive fortification agglomeration well, in fact, i would not say that it weakened well if we are talking about the fact that we are moving to vysochanskyi, we have a

sufficient number of forces and means to destroy the enemy from the dominant heights that are directly vysochanskyi, then this is actually a step that is likely even something should have been done earlier, but it is easy for us to comment here without being directly in the transition to the vysychanska zone, it also has certain risks, given that the enemy is trying to advance to the city from the south without storming the severska river , donetsk and these flanks, which are on the left and on the right side, where the enemy is trying to push our position, starting there from beliorovka, from the bottom up, from popasnaya to the bakhmut-suchansky road, these directions remain quite dangerous and it should determine where exactly our line should stop of defense, or will it be directly in lysychansk - it is possible. let's say that we are going a little deeper into ukraine. is there an understanding of what the situation is now in

lysychansk, because the institute for the study of war says that the war is already being fought within the city. well, the russians also claim information about this from our official sources that so far there are no well , that is, do we already have lysychansk, hmm, or is the epicenter moving from the north to lysychansk, there really is, let's say, the statement that in the south of the city , hostilities are taking place in one of the industrial eh facilities, but to be honest, i would start there, uh, it's inside the middle of the day and the end of the day, given the fact that we will be able to get real information from our soldiers who are there, they are there, sergey, well , look, this is such a strange case, on the one hand, the deputy minister of defense anna the painter warns everyone , so to speak, so that no one should blurt out anything superfluous, and everyone is trying to stand up in their informational song. here, you do n't understand, the head

of our military intelligence, kyrylo budanovy, is flying out of us on a black horse. in the interview, i tell you that in august we should expect visible results of ukraine's military activity. in my opinion, this is, so to speak, a much bigger fake than what a couple of deputies wrote about some pseudo-liberation of the streets in kherson, so on the other hand, we understand that this is not a secret either information, because military logic dictates. yes, we see that there is a depletion of the personnel of the russian federation, there is a depletion and a shortage of artillery systems, ammunition, yes, and it is not for nothing that they are now transferring part of the heavy weapons from belarus are not too much for the russians. what to fight like this is the feeling that in the central part of the russian federation, the so-called european part of the russian federation in quotation marks, the warehouses are already

almost empty, what to do with those two cases of budanivsky, so to speak, a revelation well, accordingly, with the ammunition of the russians what as for budanov's statement, he is consistent enough, because a few months ago he also said that in august we should prepare for a counter-attack and all active combat operations there will be completed almost by the end of this year, but conventionally speaking, it is confused in it, it is responsible for planning combat operations, ensuring them, conducting them, it is only one of the components of the general system of military security, who can interview routers. yesterday he said that what will happen if there is an accumulation of appropriate stocks of weapons and trained personnel , but relatively speaking, these factors are related to foreign aid, are variable and they really

affect the time limits of carrying out comfortable offensive operations, but conventionally speaking, when we say that then we will hold a competition for an offensive operation in august, and it does not happen, then human memory says that then, in fact, there is distrust of such people statements, but we remember the story of two weeks, which became a reference to the statements of mr. always do bet on the statement of certain officials now that we are talking about stockpiles of e-e russian weapons e-e today russia is switching to the use of aid from belarus for the development of the conservation of

stocks that are in belarus, it is increasing the stocks of old weapons that they had in their storage bases and all the same, this number will be important for us because, despite the low quality of personnel . even outdated, the potential of the russian federation and its defense can be built precisely from these realities , and i will only add, quoting the same budanov, that he noted in that interview with reuters that russia is replenishing its armed forces through covert mobilization, so there is no point in waiting until its offensive potential is exhausted, and this makes sense, considering where exactly budanov said this and what goals he could possibly pursue with similar theses, stressing that we need more armaments in the world, we should not expect that ukraine

it somehow crushed the entire oil tank of the russian federation by itself, although in principle we see it as such in fact and we still see that it is worth reinforcing us only if the armed forces will be able to stop russia. i understand correctly, absolutely correctly . wraps up the new concept of the alliance's security from the street. that is, this concept cannot be analyzed without significant participation in ukraine and assistance to ukraine, because if we pray there at all in victory over russia, it will be much more difficult survive nato thank you serhii zgorets, director of the information consulting company defense express , was with us on the air.
