for major repairs, but still to repair the damage from previous hits on the bridges, and they were able to move even the antonov bridge , small trucks with a carrying capacity of up to 10 tons began to transport ammunition, and geese even began to pass by at night on the equipment, yesterday evening , as the armed forces of ukraine said the spokeswoman absolutely filigree struck another blow completely destroyed the passage of equipment and cars on the antoniv bridge damaged the road surface is said in advance that one of the barriers is damaged antonov bridge and driving on the antonov bridge is now becoming impossible, now the occupiers have started screaming that they are going to rebuild the pontoon crossing, but well, first of all,

this is nonsense because the river bed is very large and precisely in these cities and e- it is a raging current that makes it impossible to build a pontoon bridge. and thirdly , it is still a pontoon bridge - it is a structure that is not a very strong architectural structure like the capital bridge. it it was magical. when a column of russian equipment would move along it, they later started talking about the fact that they will rebuild the ferry crossing, which is also not bad. let them all get stuck on that ferry together with collaborators and non-occupiers of the highest ranks. i think that the first a ferry would be such a cargo would be very good in the form of 200 at the bottom of the dnipro river

that is why they are now panicking, sir, a panic that has been happening since yesterday evening because they actually cut off the supply of weapons and heavy equipment already finally to the front line, the president zelensky, at least according to the words of the american congressman adamas smith, who does not lead you, the special committee on defense issues in the us congress said that president zelensky ukraine expects to succeed in the counter -offensive within three to six weeks, that is, the countdown has already started, they think about it in my opinion, the breakdown began precisely on the mykolaiv front in the kherson direction. last week, when the

first blows were actually delivered on the transport arteries, namely on the antoniv bridge, on the kakhovsky dam and on the dariv bridge, this means that in fact, any movement of equipment is under the control of the armed forces of ukraine, and this was finally proven yesterday evening, that is why these filigree strikes are the result of military operations, because the occupiers cannot already receive reinforcements, and you know, there was interesting news today. things, the occupiers announced that there will be no humanitarian cargoes for the next three days, their renown and humanitarians with which they distribute to people who have actually been brought to a state of starvation, and then they bring something , these so-called humanitarian cargoes, you know the hungry people are fed, as it were, from their good hand, then they informed that

there will be no humanitarian cargo for them in the near future. and this only means that the provision of military personnel on the front line is under great question, even with sputum and products, therefore these strategic decisions are a turning point in military operations. after them, the next, respectively, is counter-offensive actions that must take place . the so-called fake referendum that they are trying to organize on september 11. in my opinion, it would still be very important that we, well, at least on the outskirts of kherson, and even better in kherson itself, precisely to the fake referendum from this referendum, so that this time the armed forces

all the intentions of the occupiers of ukraine were broken. we see that the armed forces of ukraine, as it became known this day, liberated and cleared the occupiers in the village of andriivka , kherson region, on the left bank of the ingul river, the operational command of the south was informed about this, whether investigators are sent there, whether crimes are being recorded, and perhaps this work is still ahead . these days, indeed, today the command of the south announced the final liberation of two settlements - andriivka and lozove, precisely in the berislav district, and this is the final liberation

means that it was not only taken under our control, but it was finally cleared of the occupiers today, again , one of the events was an act of goodwill of the russians, they shot down their own helicopter er, well, on 55 aggregator yes yes yes and they still have the last bit of goodwill left to get away from kherson oblast faster , because everything is approaching the point that we will either send them to hell or they will do it as soon as possible and deal with the crimes of the russians in the occupied territories, so it is really necessary to record absolutely all crimes and public activists and journalists and smoke and the people of kherson absolutely record everything that happens on the territory of the kherson region, and i think we still have a lot of painstaking work ahead of us, namely to prove the war crimes committed

by the russian federation of the russian occupiers in the occupied territories of ukraine that they temporarily occupied. well, one of these crimes are also taking place right now at the checkpoint in vasilivka, zaporizhzhia region, this is the only crossing point for residents of the temporarily occupied territories of zaporizhzhia, kherson, donetsk, luhansk regions to the territory controlled by ukraine, people they are trying to leave, but the occupiers are not letting them out, they are using people as human shields behind people's backs, they are throwing equipment, personnel, and people there are dying, dying from the heat, from the unbearable conditions, just in the previous week, five people died in these queues. serhii, who is there now? the situation or something is known, the situation is still difficult and it is true that in some places the occupiers actually, uh, stop the departure of people to the controlled territory

uh, without any reason, without any explanation, and this happens almost every week, the occupiers for 3-4 days stop the passage of people people of people there is a very long queue this is the only pass and it is not coordinated it is not a humanitarian corridor people leave at their own peril and risk but there is no other way uh and this way is for leaving not only from kherson oblast and from zaporizhia oblast and from in the donetsk region, there is a very long queue of people on the road, the occupiers are artificially creating problems with the passage of people through those roadblocks, sometimes demanding money, sometimes simply stopping traffic, and people in some places on the road with their small children just move, look in the direction of the checkpoint because there is no way to stand, there is no way to turn back, first of all, it is also money, because the

carriers have even raised the transportation rates. departs from novaya kakhovka, and some carriers take advantage of this and increase the cost of travel, and in some places, people use their last money to leave the occupied territory, so they even go on foot. it the only possibility today to get to the controlled part of the territory of ukraine. thank you, mr. serhiy serhii khlan, a deputy of the kherson regional council, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine was in touch with us, a powerful thing with the most powerful was destroyed by heimers, uh, the ukrainian military is also about that, but i'm by the way i went specifically to russian resources, not a word about the fact that there are haimers, the dnipro antonov bridge, not that

tens of thousands of russians can be found somewhere, and that’s all . there are reports that there are already hundreds of haimus destroyed the ministry of defense missiles at night, hundreds of millions have already been excluded, and others there write about the fact that, for example, the main news in penzi is brushes, the city , dogs bite into cars at night, numbers, license plates. well, they have a russian flag there, you know, everyone is biting. by the way, i watched this appeal to pseudo-journalists to propagandists, uh, strymiusov, this protégé of the russians, uh, in the kherson region, so he said, let the mercedes beat, but it's not some armed forces there forces of ukraine which americans wouldn't be able to do it all, american than it was so accepted denial and acceptance of such a stage in two days, that is, in a day even in a day, he first said that it was a

hamersa, but we all shot it down, but then it was the hamersalodeys who flew in. yes, they all flew in. they broke, but it was the americans, what will he be able to achieve by the end of this week, the more accessible it is to go to the kherson region to do it. yes , actually, and let’s see, the officer of the 112th brigade of ground defense of the armed forces of ukraine, who is currently in the slobozhan region, including the kharkiv direction itself congratulations to the sumy direction and andriy, glory to ukraine , glad to see you heroes, glory to each other, what news from this part of the front where you are now , share a little about what the operational situation looks like where you are, i am currently in slobozhanshchyna , today i visited the units of our 112th territorial defense brigade, which are located here on slobozhanshchyna has been actively maintaining the defense here for several months, actively fighting the enemy, well, first of all , what needs to be said is that the front in slobozhanshchyna

has stabilized, the russian occupiers are completely abandoned the idea of ​​er and somewhere to advance even on these cells of the front because in fact effective defense and even effective, you know, such er offensive measures of our units er force the russian occupiers to abandon the idea of ​​offensive er very actively working er our e-e ukrainian air reconnaissance in this direction, in fact, air reconnaissance has become the eyes of the artillery of the neighboring artillery brigades , which destroy russian ammunition depots, destroy the occupants’ manpower, destroy the equipment of the occupants, and this forces them to abandon the idea of ​​an offensive. on the contrary, it is trying to withdraw its formations and equipment from the front line, and here we are in slobozhanshchyna, it is especially uhh, it is clearly visible that our units are actively engaged in defense, digging in, everything is being done

extremely efficiently, you know, today i spoke with the servicemen of our unit here in slobozhanshchyna, and in fact, they showed many videos of his military successes and his heroism . it's a great pity, you know, ukrainians are actually proud of you, this is extraordinary, extraordinary heroism and extraordinary successes, what the boys and girls say, you know, for us here, it's just everyday life, for us it's just everyday, boring work with which you can surprise someone, but in fact, there is no one here anymore it is surprising, i would like to say about the general condition of the enemy, in fact, our units are also actively eavesdropping on the enemy's conversations, recording the desperation in the camp of the russian horde against

our units here, in particular, on certain results representatives of the so-called baltic fleet of the russian federation stand in front of you. imagine that the occupiers themselves admit that because no one wants to serve in the armed forces of the russian federation, no one wants to die here on the territory of ukraine, it is not clear what they were doing they took the coast guards of the kyiv fleet from the ships and threw them here, in particular, on the territory of ukraine, on the occupied territory, eh, their commanders hoped that they would attack, but in fact the baltic sailors eh, well , here they behave like real cowards, they are trying hiding in different bushes in different eras, hiding from our armed forces, that's why i'm really proud of the work that our units of the

112th territorial defense brigade are doing here. % of ukrainians are not ready for the end of the war if all the territories of ukraine that are currently occupied are not recaptured . on the other hand, we hear from lavrov again that if it were test bullets, what did they say? we want to go there for a long time. let's sit down and talk, let's show up. what do you think about it? well, we understand that the window of opportunity to return these territories this year is not very long . even the military with whom i talked feel convinced, first of all, they are not ready in any case to give up even the smallest piece of native ukrainian land, you know, because

our student territorial defense brigade was formed in kyiv, it was formed from kyivans, but for many of these kyivans, e.e. slobozhanshchyna is here where they are now. these cities and places have become for them already native, perhaps even more native than their own home, therefore no one will ever give up a single millimeter of land, and it is obvious that ukrainians, and first of all, servicemen of the armed forces of ukraine, have never in their lives will agree to any concessions to any ideas that ukraine must give up some territory, this is not the situation anymore, it is not the time, and people now know how to fight , a huge number of the ukrainian population mobilized, relatively speaking, even if they do not directly serve in the armed forces, they are involved in the defense of the country after february 24, 2022, in fact, the consciousness of many ukrainians has changed and i am convinced that the ukrainians will not agree to any concessions to any negotiations, uh, the russian

federation has lost already this opportunity for any negotiations, therefore it is clear that the ukrainians will fight and resist. i think that there are no opportunities for any negotiations, obviously you know how one of the ancient roman senators once said he ended all his speeches with the words, and by the way , carthage must be destroyed, we will say the same, and by the way, the russian federation must be destroyed, mr. andriy thank you andriy kovalev, press officer of the 112th ground defense brigade of the armed forces of the slobozhan region, joined our live airwaves well, right now on the next expert in contact with us is taras zoftenko, an expert on national security issues and a military expert on the military situation, a military expert is already in contact with us via skype, congratulations, mr. taras, let's start with such a complex topic right away this is the dismissal of ruslan demchenko from the post

of first deputy secretary of the national security council and chairman of the committee on development under the president, and by the way, this almost coincided with lavrynovych's suspicions of ... well, in the president's circle, in particular, they comment that demchenko is leaving due to his health . hryshchenko, the minister of foreign affairs at the time, is in your opinion. is this a comprehensive connection? well, if we talk about there are some official reasons, well, let's say so. state of health is the biggest neutral on let's say yes, well, that's the most clear reason. but if we talk about the prerequisites of this resignation, then here the situation is a little more complicated because, well, we remember

what trail is behind mr. demchenko, again, from the same kharkiv agreements, yes, from lobbying and his, er, these agreements, yes, when the telegram from the er, meeting of the nsdc there from 2010 was made public when he, uh, held a position in the ministry of foreign affairs. that's it here is one more point, which is related to his position, which is a little different, so not only mr. danilov's deputy secretary of the national security and defense council, but mr. demchenko, he was also the head of the intelligence committee of the president of ukraine, and this is such a significant and sensitive moment ago that we understand that today, let's say, intelligence activities, ukraine cooperates as closely as possible with our partners, primarily the united states of america, both in terms of exchanging considered and primarily in terms of receiving intelligence from our american partners, those data that relate to er and military targets, and er, russian troops located on the territory

of ukraine and, in fact, a wider spectrum of our national security issues, well actually er, i think that er is one of the main the reason for the dismissal of mr. demchenko is that uh, well, i understand that we constantly exchange results with our western partners in close coordination, and of course our partners in washington uh, want to eliminate uh, those risky personalities as much as possible risky figures who can uh well, let's say so, or cause any information or let's say, not very correct use of the information that our uh, partners in western countries will give us , it's just a story with victoria spartz , and uh, what happened this is how you would say that you are an instigator and calm down in the president’s office, and who has

already written a second letter demanding that biden pay attention to the strengthening of the position of the permanent yarmak and the fact that, in principle, the strengthening of power, that is, the head of the office of the president of ukraine, you very carefully formulated that we would remember the ground of demchenko, but the point is that if we take people who are in one way or another responsible now for the power unit, i mean even now kirill budanov, for example, until recently, he was the head of the sbu bakanov is also the same fair that we remember who was the father of his time who worked for the fsb of russia, the federation of elephant development, all of them have some and let's say so, well, such grounds that you wouldn't call flawless, especially when you are at war with this country where where 10 where these spots are conditionally present

speaking of which, isn't this a concern after all? well , it was the right thing to do, and now we have to react again, how to react to these ? it's actually quite a valid question. actually, mrs. spalets plays a role. well, let's say it like this. figures in the current american government that can and is most likely authorized to do so because, knowing and understanding the political system of the united states, it is unlikely that these are some uncontrolled statements or statements that come as a surprise to all interested players yes, and on capital hill. and so on in the white house and so on. and most of all, ms. sparz's statement is like this. well, you know, it's a regular chinese warning, and to those ukrainian officials with regard to whom there are certain questions about their, so to speak, languages ​​with the russian authorities and the russian special services, and well, if it were clear that washington would not

, as they say, up to the elbows with both hands to bring order to banking and other government institutions in ukraine, yes, but at least send regular signals about that what a first washington is absolutely aware of all the points related to russian traces in the ukrainian government, and secondly, taking into account the level of assistance and the level of close security, first of all, cooperation between washington and kyiv, washington reserves the right to express well, to a certain extent. let's say that we recommend certain moments in the ukrainian government that are related to internal security issues. well, in principle. well, if we see that... this statement it is quite new, although in fact, in principle, they should be perceived in the same way with understanding, well, if not, no, no, you absolutely should not make sharp movements, because, well, a nervous reaction, in principle, shows a little

that there is a certain understanding, so in our official offices of justice, there are many of those moments that are talked about, er, roman sport, well, er, i will only add that andriy, when you were talking about budanov, you probably meant, er, the main intelligence directorate, so because you said the sbu, you must be talking about the sbu, but ihor bohdanov is important simply to clarify who is there what is there too everyone has a good memory and what i also wanted to ask about the fresh data of british intelligence released this morning about the fact that the russian private military company wagner and the language probably managed, according to british intelligence, to carry out a tactical offensive in donbas in the area of the uglehir tpp and the neighboring village on luhansk, and some ukrainian forces have probably left this area, and according to reports

there is another interesting part of this report, which is dedicated to the visit of the head of the ministry of foreign affairs of the russian federation serhiy lavrov african countries, we will talk about it in a moment and if we talk about the wagnerites in the donbas, in particular in the area of ​​the uglehir tpp, what is happening in this direction p taras why is he so important for the russians that they connected there e private military company wagner what to expect and in general about how many wagnerites have already been destroyed in ukraine? we can see that their number should be rapidly decreasing, but we still see that they are spilling over into such tense areas where a sharp reinforcement is needed by some special by the forces of the russian military, that's how the situation looks, i'm asking you for a word. thank you. well, first of all

, you shouldn't overestimate pvk wagner, so they showed themselves, well, to put it mildly, not very professionally. it's still a long time before. here's this full-scale russian attack on and even for a long time. until 2014, then to donbass and crimea well, there are a lot of questions about their effectiveness there, and in syria and in africa , as well as in its fields and other african states, where russia, well, in addition to its diplomacy, yes, it is still actively present in such a in the form of so and in de wagner plays a much bigger role than in the conflict here on the territory of ukraine in combat operations well, actually, regarding the priority of the russians' offensive directions considering the fact that, well, although the number of people, for now the advantage remains on their side and in manpower and in technology and in er. well, let's say the concentration of platoon power. but nevertheless , er, time is now playing very hard and very unequivocally

against the russians, because the russians are creating time , first of all, the further they go, the more they lose their quantitative potential and their quantitative advantage and to replenish it, er, this applies, again, to manpower and equipment, it is becoming more and more difficult for the russians, therefore, in principle, they er, well, where there is an opportunity, and where there is a real need for it, they er are forced to simply use the services of these private military uh, companies, including wagner, yes, and on the other hand, uh, well, the russians are now trying , realizing that uh, it's tight and quantitatively, they will fall over time, the further i go, the more i'll call a hole. and the ukrainian side, first of all, will be qualitative over time they say that the potential is also growing because, well, if we still continue to receive modern western weapons and ammunition for them, and it is also effective to use the russians, he is trying to find out for himself which positions, where the positions of the ukrainians, the ukrainian defenders are the weakest and, accordingly, tries to press exactly so

in those e points where eh or protection eh well if from our side he well let's say is the least convenient and our troops eh in our strong in order to save the lives of our own save the lives of the civilian population of the civilian infrastructure in the end keep the weapons, keep the price of this western equipment, our troops are forced to leave, that's why, in principle, well, if this is a tactic of the russians, they are now running in a race against the clock, and they are trying while they still have it. this is the quantitative inertia that we we typically begin to break through. so, we are the point strikes of the mikhailmars, the russians are trying to advance where they see such an opportunity. well, in fact, if there are not enough of their regular troops, then it is clear that due to the lack of other options, they can throw anti-aircraft guns and uh, well, those who they will be able to demobilize in the already occupied territories, by the way, on this video, it seems that one of

those militants is recorded there, this is the attention that i will say that we have taken control of tesluhirsky he is in the ukrainian pixel of unsingable signs because it can prove well, uh, we still don't understand that the russian troops trophy is not only washing machines, refrigerators, there are, uh, mixers and other household appliances. yes, wherever there is an opportunity, they try to take trophies, including uh, the uniform, so what they uh in one way or another they can get that's why well and even more so if we talk about pvk wagner so what kind of well whose fighters they themselves are in principle responsible for their own equipment so to speak so that well we can see people there in very different forms let's say so with very different values ​​of the quality of the ukrainian standard

uniform, so to speak, of national security problems, he was in touch with us well, indeed, military experts note that the wagnerians are not the first to use camouflage uniforms of the armed forces ukraine well, what's going on in the wet mountain tess, we'll still wait for official news ah actually eh if we already knocked out the occupiers from the chornobyl npp then we'll knock them out of the uglyhir tpp even if they somehow managed to get there in a moment, in 15 minutes, we will return and continue our analytical studies, we will talk in particular about the grain corridors, what news there is, when they will become operational, and what risks experts and farmers see, about this immediately after the release of the news that our colleague is ready to present anna eva melnyk, colleague, hello, maria, thank you, reda
