the goal of all volunteers is to get to the de-occupied territories and provide help there because everything has been destroyed there, the entire infrastructure has been completely destroyed. we especially see this in the neighboring villages near mykolaiv daily there are a lot of refugees and in transit and to permanent places. because here we have an air raid in lviv, in the lviv oblast, it does not happen so often, but it still happens. of the youth council on the mykolaiv regional military administration now we will go downstairs and there is already closing we will continue the broadcast but this station is in a few minutes so that we have time to go there so don't switch be with espresso stay tuned, we'll be back literally in a few minutes and continue our broadcast with the greatest wisdom of the commander - this is the preservation of the life and health of the personnel who

directly perform the task somewhere in the rafts beyond the threshold where the devil himself broke somewhere someone is his wife here, not the hetman, the glorious one, and not the tsar of this state, here the atamana pours a ban, the 110th territorial defense brigade is a brigade that includes the city of zaporizhzhia and the entire zaporizhzhia region, these are very motivated people, they are fearless and

they are ready for anything for the sake of saving their homeland, the soldier went to work and warned the military on the 24th. at first, poppy seed, then zaporozhye, hryhorivka and many settlements . and the imprisonment was coming, oh, and this battalion was from the occupied territory, which was forced to leave. because it was formed during this including the departure, and there was already the final stage of its formation, it was completed precisely in zaporizhzhia, and then he went to this front, these people did not have

much time to prepare, they have been here since the first days on the front lines, the training took place immediately in the real conditions of the combat situation, well, there was an opportunity for development, a certain assault unit was disrupted, they pushed out before that, of course, there was artillery training, the artillery units slowly moved forward under the cover of tanks, well, it was no less than a company of enemy equipment,

more was destroyed 5 units, i will say frankly that in our country, the fighting lasted from six months and happened even until 9 o'clock in the evening. it was continuous, so they captured two tanks and two bmps, one bmp-2, one bmp 3, there were two tank, one of them is damaged, and the other tank was simply abandoned by the occupiers, and we took it away. and of course, the picture is very deplorable. they bombed everything. everything that they saw. they don’t take them, they leave them

, including the wounded, but in some places there are corpses of money that cannot be removed because of that. that they treacherously mine them, some were taken away, some were buried there, the clothes were left, there were documents, well, the dnr and many with ukrainian passports, the demoralized enemy is not as strong as he wanted it to be, and our resistance showed that he really, not so much, yes, amen,

it is desirable, of course, sooner, but we have what we have, even though it is already home, i just burned down the house in the zaporizhzhia region, there is still work, autumn, how old are i, 14, 14, i am a grandson. are obliged to do this because the desire to return their territories must have overcome fear. that's how i think at night, i know

a lot, and what do you know? and we have already found shelter, we continue our broadcast . so, now throughout the territory of ukraine, the air alert calls you to stay in shelters, and at least use the rule of two walls, well, protect yourself as much as possible, taking into account where you are, in any case, do not ignore the signals air alert because the enemy

is stupid and now he is even more crazy, why is the enemy crazy? serhiy zgurets will talk about this, he talks about the situation at the front, he is already with me, the director of the defense express agency gives the columnist military summaries of the day sergey congratulate vasyl congratulations to our viewers and today's military summaries of the day about the situation on the fronts and mainly about the ideal storm in the kharkiv region in the performance of the military and also about the fact that they will be able to shorten the duration of the war with russia strategic decisions that were made at the rammstein meeting about this in a moment so, despite all the difficulties, this week gave us all hope for the fastest approach to our victory, the armed forces of ukraine are conducting a large-scale counteroffensive in the kharkiv region, making efforts to defense lines near donetsk are being liberated from the occupiers of our south, today the

commander-in-chief of the armed forces valeriya zaluzhnaya reported that, i quote, the armed forces continue to liberate the territories occupied by russia since the beginning of september, more than 3,000 square kilometers have been returned to the control of ukraine in the kharkiv direction. we began to advance not only to the south and east, but and to the north there are 50 km to the state border end of quote this is extremely good news, it actually works in kharkiv oblast, you can can be called a kind of perfect storm that was well planned and implemented by our military every day. these are the newly conquered frontiers on august 8 - this is balaklia and my son around him . on september 9 - this is a rush from balaklia to shevchenko yesterday from shevchenko to kupyansk from the inguinal yar to raisin and further, now there is an infographic which, by the way, shows the progress of our

e-e troops and in the liberation of our territories from the occupiers, we can see how quickly this enclave , which is free from the enemy, is expanding and we can see how much the dynamics on the front line are powerful, the liberation of settlements in the kupyan and izyum districts of the kharkiv region continues. for the kharkiv region, the publication means that a new impulse has appeared in the russian-ukrainian war, which has been a heavy artillery confrontation for the past few months, and that the ukrainian troops are the ones who have the potential to change the course of the war in their the new york times mentions about the release of raisin, the city was an important intermediate

station for the russians to replenish and strengthen their troops involved in the battles in the east of ukraine, the publication determines that during august the ukrainian military leadership announced an offensive in the south before striking in the northeast using disorientation techniques yordamsk calls the enemy the speed of the advance of the armed forces in the kharkiv region as amazing . offensive and threw them to the defense of raisin. by the way, it was yesterday, but our command defeated the enemy again, and the further offensive of our units was in those directions and results that deprived the enemy of the meaning and opportunity to defend raisin. by the way, the enemy left a significant amount of equipment and ammunition there . the message that the units of the third motorized rifle division of the enemy's 20th army

did not have time to escape from the raisin, were left without support and were captured, so we will wait for such details with photos of another photo fixation and what was the reaction of the main russians? the ministry of defense of russia, after experiencing such a dumb shock for a couple of days, finally falsely declared that this was not a retreat from kharkiv region at all and that what in the russian public was called the new seven, by the way, turns out to be this three-day operation to collapse and of the organized transfer of the izyum-balakliya group of troops to the territory of the donetsk people's republic, we have already heard this somewhere, although this does not amount to statements of a gesture of goodwill, now the artists leave the territory of the kharkiv region, go east to the oskol river, where they will probably try to

deploy a new line of defense along the water obstacles. here, by the way, it is still worth recalling some details about the pace of our operation and its content . from solily since march 2 in the direction of slavyansk, the russian troops have covered about 20 km in six months, we returned it in four days and have gone deep into the enemy's defenses for more than 50 km, and now we are talking about the liberated and kupyansk and izyum, what is important and new in this operation, which, by the way, in the pentagon finally began to be called an offensive, first of all, as far as i am concerned, we carried out this offensive without the advantage of manpower and heavy armored vehicles, however, our masters clearly demonstrated

the superiority of our military thinking over the enemy in this operation, we used an approach when we did not attack the enemy's line of defense head-on, we combined the maneuver of units to cover enemy forces and high-precision strikes on the depth of the enemy's defense, all this was done by the way on the basis of high-quality intelligence and stable, reliable communication between our advancing units, this is an extremely important factor, it actually reminds us somewhat of the echo of american tactics and assault actions, when first all the enemy's ability to resist in the depth of his defense is destroyed, and then at the optimal moment and in the optimal city, attacking actions are carried out, by the way, these were attacking actions. unless, at the first stage, when we broke through the line of defense in one place, and then it turned out that there was no second line of defense of the enemy it is actually unsaturated and there are no reserves

of our long-range high-precision strikes that were used in the course of preparation and before this operation, they were first of all non-returnable with water support points and at command and observation points at command points at communication nodes with fuel and lubricants and ammunition, and this, by the way, made sense and resulted. when our offensive actions began, the enemy at the same strongholds had no opportunity for sustained resistance, and most importantly, he had no interaction with by the command of the higher echelon and the defense began to fall, this operation also began for the enemy , the moment was unexpectedly chosen. by the way, when rotations took place on the enemy's defense line, when more or less uncapable units went on rotation and for replacement, and the enemy put up the first line of secondary and less prepared combat units

the third interesting and important factor is that the enemy actually did not expect an attack in this very place and could not determine the direction of our maneuvers, always based on the peculiarities of the terrain and the differences in height and vegetation actually contributed to our maneuver and the enemy by the way, he was also not prepared for the fact that it would be such a deep operation with broad objectives, and our fighters actively advanced into the enemy's deep positions, not giving the enemy the opportunity to recover and understand what was happening around them. the counteroffensive began without an additional concentration of forces and resources, which also misled the enemy, while on this part of the front, which provided breakthroughs, the further development of the breakthrough acted the most our unit or those units that

have the drive to victory are so combat-capable, let me remind you that the 90th mechanized and 14th mechanized brigades, the 80th airmobile 25th airborne brigade, and the 113th territorial defense brigade also noted, by the way, the role of the general staff in planning and the commander by the ground forces of the general of the syrian administration, our forces, which are included in the operation, really deserve the highest marks in terms of professionalism and the preparation and conduct of this operation, so it can be said that at the beginning on september 1, the khmelnytskyi army took the initiative on this part of the front, but in any case, how exactly can you predict further actions and changes on the fronts, the inactive actions are now going on for a length of 1500 km, we will talk about this topic with viktor kyvryuk, he is a reserve colonel and an expert

of the center of defense strategies, mr. viktor, i welcome you to the espresso channel. good evening, mr. sergey. when we were summing up last week, we talked about the fact that this week will be the most revealing, and it actually is. it is held under the slogan of the operation of the armed forces in the kharkiv region since september 8, and on august 9, an operation is taking place in the south, and when we talked about the south, you said that it was necessary to scratch. so, how do you assess the situation on the fronts now? the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine demonstrated that he is a very skilled magician and by distracting the enemy with one hand on the right flank in the south luring a huge

number of troops to the right side of the dnieper by replacing the reserves there with equal resources using measures were taken to build up the enemy air defense system there , the troop control system was developed, strikes on the bridges left this group without a chance to quickly maneuver in any other direction, and after that, a left-hand strike on the nose in kharkiv oblast. it turned out great. we saw the capability of the military leadership of the armed forces the children of ukraine are not stereotyped , creative on a wide front. actually, the troops involved in the operation in the kharkiv region show excellent examples of tactical skill, well , the initiative is being intercepted by the ukrainians by the armed forces, at least in the

kharkiv direction, not only in kharkiv , the ukrainian armed forces seized the operational initiative and there is every chance that the operational success in the kharkiv region will turn into a general strategic ukraine began to play number one, the general staff of the armed forces imposes its will, its opinion it is very important to the enemy on such a scale, it happened for the first time in this war, how can you predict the actions of the enemy now, are the estimates correct that now the enemy is trying to pull back to the line of those water obstacles, there are children the paths split there to try to build a new line of defense to build some unconscious line of defense, the operative has no resources that having seized these areas sometime in march, the enemy has so far managed to organize a defensive line there,

realizing that sooner or later the armed forces of ukraine will return to the issue of the restoration of the state sovereignty and territorial integrity in these territories, that is, unexpected proactive and large-scale tactical actions led to the fact that a seemingly monolithic group of operative groups of the west and part of the operational group center e-e unexpectedly fell apart. will the enemy be able to organize a new line of defense? i am inclined to believe that the enemy will move completely under the state border of ukraine with the russian federation, leaving such a small enclave there and will take measures there to restrain the offensive of the armed forces of ukraine from the goal is somehow to secure the right flank of its occupation in the

luhansk region, and the offensive is developing in that direction, too, so i cannot help but ask you about why, in your estimation, the defenses collapsed the enemy because we believed that the raisin group was the most saturated there in terms of numbers, that they stood there for a long time, there were tank units and so on. there was a lot of trouble in march . they said that the russian federation was not able to control the purchased territories. they concentrated their garrisons in large settlements in smaller ones. they were either police forces or small garrisons of the level commandant's office, respectively, during the 200 days of the war, there were no processes to form some semblance of state power, that is, there is no skeleton

that would be able to restrain the onslaught, accordingly, having reliable intelligence information, the ukrainian side clearly knew where the knots were, and where the enemy could approach the defense and simply bypassed these areas, leaving them in the deep rear, such a configuration does not allow the enemy to widely use aviation, because no, it is quite clear for their own and foreign, respectively, all support forces starting from the artillery and ending with the field kitchens, they were under threat of destruction or capture of the warehouses, they had to maneuver somewhere and it was not always successful, and those garrisons that remained were left without management, without logistics, without any means of livelihood, in principle, now there is quite a lot of radio interception, including in public access, when the

russians who remained in such and such garrisons sound the alarm, there is no food, there is no water, accordingly, their resistance is doomed and limited to what they have resources, i.e. either capture or death , there is no option for many to retreat, according to my estimates , we conducted this offensive without such a significant quantitative advantage in personnel and without a significant advantage in armored vehicles and artillery means. at the same time, the command of the armed forces and the political leadership repeatedly speaks repeatedly about the fact that we need more more weapons i know that you analyzed and evaluated the results of the rammstein 5 meeting of defense ministers and there was this new strategic moment that is related to what is there in a week or two, there will be a meeting of the national directors for nato armed forces of other countries that support the anti-putin coalition

there, and there will be launched such a new strategic plan for the creation of a new defense industrial cooperation of the countries of europe, the united states, and other countries. in your estimation, what significance will the initiative have and can ukraine itself is trying to get involved in these projects with its defense and industrial complex, which are now being implemented primarily under the leadership of the united states, which regarding this meeting, it is very important, it means reformatting the defense class of the movement of the western countries that provide us with military and technical assistance and its gradual reorientation to e . let's say the specification of aid, that is, industry is reorienting itself to the production of what is needed by the armed forces of ukraine for the restoration of sovereignty and the return of previously captured the territory of the enemy as an example well, the same stinger missiles, the manufacturer of the radeon company is large and powerful,

but it fulfilled the order for the supply of these there are simply no missiles freely available on e-e , they are stockpiled in order to start the conveyor and not make stingers as much as we need. the stinger that was delivered by the afghan partisans in the early 1970s and the one that is being assembled now are completely different missiles if you remember when the hubble telescope was repaired in space assembled on a second-hand hbm286 processor, the name of the announcement, the

auction , who has such a processor in the garage? after the second world war, large american corporations came to the conclusion that in matters of execution of military orders, the state of business only does not interfere with the positional training of american industry based on their agreements leaders among themselves, they are rehearsing the execution of this or that big order there for a thousand tanks for 20 ships for 150 planes of the like , in detail, in detail, who will get what from where, in what time frame, it is possible to do it , where will the labor force be taken from, where will the equipment be taken from, who will be from where to conduct some components for business is normal for the state, it is difficult, the same american format

of interaction of e-e manufacturers will most likely be proposed at the meeting of the heads of the defense-industrial e-e departments that will gather in a week, two ramsteins again, as for the ukrainian pc, hmm, there are many nuances here, the first nuance is that it plays by completely different rules, or we will switch to the rules adopted in the west, or we will simply play flags, a player like us, few people are satisfied with the second moment, our opponent is directly the russian federation, hardly will it allow us to deploy something serious, i am inclined to the opinion that uh, the production is powerful, or most likely they will be deployed in the border states with ukraine, it is, firstly, safe, and secondly, from a logistical point of view

from the point of view of the delivery of the final product to the final consumer with minimal costs, it is possible after the end of the war that military-technical assistance will also take the form of assistance in reforming the defense industry in the court of the ukrainian economy. thank you for this comment and for these explanations, and i will remind our viewers that the espresso channel was victor kivalyuk, reserve colonel and experts of the defense strategies center, these were the main highlights of the military results for today, and for more international and economic news of my colleagues , stay tuned to the espresso channel, so thank you very much serhiy skvortsyu serhii is going to the hair dryer express is the host of the military summary of the day he told us about the situation at the front, i will only say that now the air alarm was heard throughout the territory of ukraine, explosions in the dnipro and flint
