support the boycott of russian and belarusian athletes of national teams and teams support ukraine on the sports front you are the voice of democracy silence kills with the support of the ministry of youth and sports of ukraine kateryna osadchai's project to search for the missing find their own every monday at 9:30 p.m. to save others they themselves risked their lives leave these people's brother who was captured by the russians when he was taking people out of mariupol, the son who wanted to save a friend from the occupation, don't go, their relatives are doing everything to find them, i'm really looking forward to it, watch and join to searches."

the national telethon, the only news, continues and we are picking up the broadcast baton. ruslan sharipov and i are marichka padalko. well, let's start talking about the current situation in ukraine. so, kharkiv was under mass shelling that night, the city is not used to this. but such intensity does not happen every day, the situation there and along the entire line of the front, we will discuss now directly with the military expert peter chernyk, he is joining us live . peter, good morning. thank you for being with us in such a morning, so give glory to the heroes. let's start with kharkov, uh, how much have we been talking about the war for 164 days already? kharkiv remains almost always in the center of attention. what do you think, why? yes, i'm on the

call , i'm listening. we are constantly talking about him, how long is the war going on, what do you think why kharkiv still remains such a target of the occupiers, you know how, in my opinion, it is completely inappropriate to concentrate on one place. the whole of ukraine will remain under attack, this is an important nuance, all without why kharkiv is an exception, because it must be reminded that at the beginning of the so-called great battle for donbass, the enemy declared a large operational arc . objectively, and this is actually a huge merit of our armed forces , he could not and does not achieve development in this

regard, operational friends, and he objectively resorts to tactics that are incomprehensible to him as such, if it is not possible to inflict damage on the enemy in the military sense he inevitably resorts to chaos, and in our case to the shelling of peaceful cities and, first of all, of kharkiv oblast, because after all, kharkiv is the closest city of such a size to their border, and ordinary barrel artillery can reach there, not to mention the rocket systems of volley fire, which on sorry for the moment. the enemy still has quite a lot, mr. peter, regarding kherson, but recently british intelligence announced that the russians had placed radar reflectors in the water near the destroyed antonivskoye and railway bridges, so you can explain what kind of equipment it is, how effective it is. yes, there is such a thing, there is such a point about -

flowing high-quality weapons. i mean the already famous hi-maxes and mls, which i did not talk about . this is actually an incredible high-quality ammunition with a range of up to 84 km, and the uniqueness of this ammunition is that it has an incredibly high- quality homing head that works in conjunction with satellites and therefore gives such an accurate hit let me remind you that the antonov bridge was fenced off by our military with precision. well, probably meter by meter in diameter up to 20 m on one section of this bridge . at the same time, i have to remind you that any accurate guidance system works in the radar mode. that is, it is

radio physics and against them as well is trying to find ways and methods of blinding these warheads, disorienting them, and therefore removing these objects from under attack, we must understand that without a full-fledged bridge, the group located on the right bank of the kherson region will not have full supply of fuel and lubricant materials, medicines, food and even ordinary drinking water, the enemy has guided a pontoon bridge with this almost idle antonov bridge and is trying to improve its logistics, but in my opinion the guidance systems of our partners are many times greater than the potential radar deception systems of our enemy. and i believe that in the near future, our military will once again demonstrate the delivery of pinpoint strikes on

similar objects. they knew that the heimers were going to ukraine, that is, they knew and they knew the characteristics of these shells that you mentioned. well, for them it was a kind of surprise. why didn't they put them before the heimers came to ukraine? let's not, we have to understand that moment that russia objectively loses in technological weapons, first of all, to the united states of america, and secondly, how can you remember what the ukrainians will drink? well, when the farmers arrived, there were not even approximate conversations about the fact that, conditionally , in the area of ​​the right bank of the dnieper in the kherson oblast, create certain prerequisites for a potential counteroffensive, that is, how do they actually work. the russians did not have a complete picture of these machines, because they did not have a little history. these installations worked

only in one major war during the war in the united states of america against the saddam hussein regime, i emphasize against the regime and not against the iraqi people in in 2003, where several thousand were used for half a given installation, but even despite the fact that the russians have quite a good development of the full technological picture of how this weapon works there was no plus the regime of saddam hussain did not have any technological devices at all to somehow fight this, there really was not a full range of understanding of how these machines will work for several weeks , almost already a month. they have been working. logical steps on their part, mr. petra just noticed that they actually brought out that we, the armed forces of

ukraine, actually made the antonov bridge of communication between the two shores of a non-functional how can you possibly estimate these pontoon crossings in terms of percentage? there was even information that they stole a watermelon barge, which usually transported watermelons to kyiv, and they also want to attract it in some way. this functionality can replace the loss of this connection, the pontoon will never fully replace a normal working bridge, plus let me remind you that the longer the pontoon and in this case case, the narrowest place of the dnieper in that part of less than three hundred within 300 m. that is, the larger the pontoon, the heavier it is functionally, but it is well justified conditionally somewhere at the siversky end, if the width of the river is within 56 m, of

course, of course, this is a working system that can delay from 40 to 80 t heavy equipment load, however, to fully replace the modern modern bridge across such a large river as the dnipro , in my opinion, the russians will not be able to achieve functionality within 30-45% of the possibilities of this antonov bridge and i will remind you that there is another railway bridge which is at the moment also significantly damaged and cannot be used fully functionally, that is, in general, in general, combat supply and full provision of everything to the group on the right bank of the dnieper is quite difficult is quite difficult and this in principle, this is good news because the exhaustion of this is a good prerequisite for us for certain counter

-offensive actions e p peter and exhaustion is our goal in my opinion this is the smartest tactic that's why, you see, i'm probably the expert who doesn't operate, doesn't operate with rhetoric counteroffensive why because having somewhere a certain rather good grounded military education from the insurgent bench, i remember that the first and offensive - this is a very difficult operation, to be honest, offensive is much more difficult than defending offensive must take place in some area, this area has certain characteristics, let's say from the brigade there, further there, the division and the corps, and so on, so it is at least 10-15 km from us here. well, it is difficult for me to imagine now how we should carry out this offensive is a plus. let's talk about the fact that 95% of it is on the artillery. the enemy has it, let's not be enchanted. they have at least 5,000 work tables. they have, and they have

not exhausted the unlimited artillery. why is the projectile not really such a complex technological thing, it is a piece of iron and gunpowder , steel mills, they have metallurgical metal-cutting machines 38,000 times of the first lend-lease, that is why they were supplied to manufacture projectiles, and gunpowder is cellulose, cellulose is a tree, where wood is the first place in the world in terms of reserves, so there are dates in the bayonet attacks, well, our priceless soldier, he is priceless, well, it is not wise to squeeze out the enemy only with progressive small steps, and in the perspective of the siege of kherson, i never thought that there should be a full-fledged assault on the vlogs, they do not and will not spare their soldier, this is the reality we have no right to the first victory how that is why, as an expert, i am always very careful about these livers. and

i believe that only such small steps, especially in terms of quality, will help us win in the long run. i am not a supporter of the concept that victory, here, tomorrow, on the contrary, everything is good for a long time, in what limits are we talking, according to your assessment, the sentences are very serious and we will all find the right way out for my firm conviction, but i have experience not only in military affairs. and i am a candidate of political sciences i have more than 150 presprazh - it is in geopolitics that they emphasize it in geopolitics, so very briefly. we ukrainians are exhaling in the eternal war with our enemy. and it has been going on since the distant year 1240, when the tatar- mongol face came here, they heirs, we will not discuss here, we are exhaling. so the russian federation is divided into 15:20 states, they are pulling out the nuclear sting from them, what is being

formed in the conditional russian republic, do not confuse it with the russian one, it is not the same thing, it will be cut off from free siberian resources, especially from oil and gas, we we join nato and it has been carried out there for at least 60 years, that is, for three generations, a complex, complex, ideological rehabilitation of what they call greatness, but let’s be honest, let’s take care of ourselves, that’s it, not quickly reality no, maybe a year, maybe two, maybe 10, so i strongly appeal to my nation to finally become real realists and understand where the real threat lies if someone thinks that football will die and everything will be fine . these five factors will come together only then we will really bake, being a true specialist we understand that this is not a dream - soon we

thank you for this assessment, then we continue to talk with you about the situation in other areas of the front but after a short pause we will repair and bandage we will win the news together we are strong every day at 20:00 i congratulate you at 8 pm we are with the marathon watch the final issue of the only news the most important things about ukraine and together about the main thing don't wait another day of heroic together victory marathon only news every evening at 20:00 together we are a force thank you for your trust together we will win the only news the main thing is that every office in our office was torn under the flashlight from the phone you choose each woman took out 14 men on her own she starts to panic but all the

same she drove heroes are not born with such by the number of dogs, five cats, a hamster, a spider, a chameleon, and some other fish, even on this crossing i began to lose consciousness very much there is still hope that he is a living hero from monday to friday 21:15 in marathon the only news is our life will be the same as before knitted house to the industrial district and for the sake of the future the knights of reconstruction are already working the work is being carried out according to the schedule the task will be completed time they will restore our cities and we will

breathe life into them very grateful battalion of builders here our front is no more contradictions there is one nation that defends its land, there are no more countries of the first, second and third world, there is a civilization that repels the aggressor, there are no more foreign cities and foreign children, there is a homeland and parents for everyone, there are no more soldiers and civilians, we are hardened in the flame, we are united for the sake of victory we do not believe in our struggle, we believe in our victory. we are

indomitable . the situation in ukraine and at the front with the expert petr chernyk and now, before continuing the conversation , we would like to remind you that in ukraine , the war that has unfolded is very often called the war of drones and artillery. that's right, it's not just a war and the current stage of the russian-ukrainian war is also called in ukraine over the past 5 months drones have become the most powerful weapon and their pilots are now hunted by the enemy no less than snipers the ministry of defense and digital digital transformation is now looking for any opportunities to turn yesterday's infantryman or machine gunner into a drone operator, where are they looking for instructors and how long does it take to qualify fighters, maryana bukhan will tell you today

, drone pilots and these guys now cover their faces in any filming, it is now the most dangerous profession because drone pilots are very hunting hard that's why we need camouflage camouflage camouflage only a week of training in the classroom and in the field and today these four have a final exam they are going to the forest we are training the elite of our army these are the eyes of our army to prometheus civilian instructors of uav pilots six months ago had not even encountered the army in civilian life, drones were their hobby and sometimes their work after the full-scale offensive of the russians, they were not the first to realize that their skills could help ukrainian fighters. after the first 10 days

of fighting, the active boys returned and they said that without drones there is nothing to do there at all, and at the same time they volunteer drones and open courses for military pilots all over the country, now in ukraine, in just one month, up to 2,000 learn to fly them fighters and pilots from them say that the instructors are good, there are such that when the taliban see what the ukrainians are doing with drones, they sign up for the second one. meanwhile, in italy, yuriy artem and the raccoon split into pairs, each group has its own task. other enemy drg to search for people. well, this is probably one of the most difficult, because uh, a person is very small . she can simply freeze in place in one second. and it is very difficult from a great height, it is extremely difficult to find someone vitaliy z ar quickly they searched for the buildings, now their task is to help their comrades to complete the task, however, at first the

redeployment they run from the bushes to landing in the sky drones are launched while lying on the ground or the less a person is, the less you can notice from the mountain the enemy drone cannot be detected on the ground, but the guys come across her drone in the sky, he eventually can lead them to the target rom is already our enemy and it and it is controlled by someone it is controlled by the enemy unequivocally the exam is passed ahead only obtaining diplomas now i just think if tell the soldiers of the past world war ii how we are fighting now, well, they didn't believe it, they thought that it's just i don't know, smoke, white fever, maybe they have something else well, i just don't know, it's not, it's not fiction ivan golovach tsn 1+1 marathon single news so let's continue a conversation with a military expert , experts peter chernyk, eh and mr. peter, we just watched the plot and eh, drones are very important weapons

that are needed at the front, even putin, when he went to iran, asked for drones to be provided to him, then in turkey, i don’t know, he trolled, he was not a troll, he was reprimanded -is offering him the production of barrectors in russia. and how much is the current balance of power in terms of drones on the front, which is really really really fully supporting the absolutely correct opinion that drones are gaining momentum in entering the military environment, in general, drones can be divided into two large classes, the first - the large class - is reconnaissance danes are those that study the battlefield with the help of modern television and radio equipment and help guide the target; divide into two subspecies those that are controlled by a human operator, let's say, such as a peraktar and have certain weapons on board that can destroy the enemy

and kamikaze killer drones, but let's start with the first block, really at the moment the enemy has an incredibly strong connection called the orlan 10 drone quite a very successful machine, relatively not heavy, from 12 to 23 kg of weight, depending on what equipment there is, with a fairly large operational range of up to 600 and up to 600 km, which can operate at medium altitudes of 100 and above meters, up to 500 m, it is really very serious and a dangerous connection and it is quite effective to shoot down eagles 10 well, it is not such a simple task, our anti-aircraft rockets cope with it, but here there is, you know, a certain such, well, rather difficult moment, sometimes we have to use heavy missiles against these drones, let's say such a class missile as buk-buk 1 m against this drone is the same as shooting sparrows with guns, but here in this direction as well.

we have good news, the first three vehicles from anti-aircraft missile combat of the gun type, i mean the german cheetah, which has two sleeper guns and the 35-millimeter missiles are designed specifically to fight this, moreover, it has already passed. the information that the soviets there will provide, well, quite a large number of their close-range anti-aircraft missile systems starstrike based on a car with a brake. so these are eight missiles, and gradually we will definitely increase parity to to shoot down these drones, the good news somewhere is that, let's say, we already have such systems, in fact, russia does not have baryakhtars in principle, and in fact, this is exactly why they went to iran , sampusting went to iran, iran has similar ones drones with the possibility of getting from iran

similar machines to the shore of the shahid class, have they agreed? well, for now, there is no reliable information that i would personally check that they have such equipment. i currently do not have drones, however, and in the part of what is called the study of the battlefield and in terms of striking, there will be twins , and this is a great technological prospect in general for all future wars. as such, the situation now looks like this. that the russians are actively operating on all areas of the front. if before, they were extremely are active in the east. so now a lot of forces from here are moving to the south. and yes, they are still active in kharkiv oblast, sumy oblast, in the border areas of these areas. please tell me, is this really the mood they have now to attack on all fronts? have they been somewhere, and somewhere are they trying to pull back our forces? what do you think? i will return this operational situation to the

first block of our conversation with you, where we considered my version why the war is long and in fact the enemy is not going to give up and he will not give up, we should remind together for some reason they stopped talking about it, it's really not good that we started talking about it about the main goal of this war, the main goal of this war is only one to eliminate ukrainian statehood, there are no more goals - this goal does not set itself, we must clearly understand that the defeat of putin in ukraine is a military part is equal to his physical death, but i am 100% sure of this. and we ask ourselves the question, if we take this conclusion as a constant, will the enemy stop? a firm supporter of the concept that only based on the results of victories on the battlefield, some kind of new

geopolitical configuration, not only ukrainian in general, will be formed, but the incredibly high-moscow imperialism is ultimately fighting for its existence, and you know from a historical point of view, we have a unique historical time in which there was definitely something in svyatoslav to really bury him. so, from this geopolitical sofia to the front, they will try to attack along the entire demarcation line as long as they have enough resources. it's a pity, they still have this resource. and where will they concentrate their efforts? well, it's probably not so easy in the galatians, and not peter, eh, we don't have much time left, 40 seconds. if possible, a short answer to the last question . the belarusian ministry of defense announced the sending of its military to russia for training. do you know what kind of training it is and whether these belarusians who went to russia for training could end up somewhere near kherson and donetsk, as was the case with russian conscripts,

they could end up anywhere . lukashenka is doomed, he is fighting for his physical survival. putin will do everything possible to force him to strike . it is impossible to ignore this factor, but in fact, belarus is already at war with ukraine, and the cat’s skin continues from their territories as otaki, since the beginning of the war, we do not ignore this direction . thank you very much for your professional assessment. the military expert petro chernyk was in direct contact with us. well, we will return it so that the ukrainians don't think about anything, no matter what they talk about , it's still a war, a war, and ours. victory seven days a week from monday to monday seven different spheres of human activity sports culture politics eight presenters espresso journalists experts opinion leaders in real time about the most current events through the
