friendly, professional people who are still on the front line today, the zhodensar point is being taken and it's true. i five seconds five five in april , security service employees came to me and said why i am against minsk 3 oleg hunda mykhailo tsimbalyuk people's deputies of ukraine thank you radio svoboda next is the blitzkrieg of the armed forces of ukraine in the kharkiv region. as a result, hundreds of thousands of ukrainians were left

without electricity in poltava oblast, dnipropetrovsk oblast , kharkiv oblast, sumy oblast, donetsk oblast. congratulations, this is freedom life. my name is vlad and lazur, i live in languages ​​on the pages of radio freedom on facebook and on youtube, as well as on the air of the espresso tv channel on separate ukrainian forces reached the state border with russia the day before, the russian military left the settlements of velikiy burluk and dvorichna of the kupyan

region a day earlier on september 10. although the kremlin bloggers and commentators call the events in kharkiv region the defeat of the russian army, the ministry of defense of russia, after a long silence, declared that they allegedly transferred troops from balaklia and raisin in the donetsk direction, allegedly to achieve the goals of the so-called special operation in donbas, how long was the liberation of kharkiv region by ukrainian forces, look glory to ukraine, we are in our native village of kozacha lopan, this is how local residents meet our defenders, thank you , please, the main square of the raisin, which is burning down, the

premises of the local administration, the ukrainian flag has been installed kharkiv

will restore everything raisin was, is and will be ukraine, analysts of the institute for the study of war state in their current report that they have recaptured almost all of kharkiv region in a rapid counteroffensive ukrainian troops have inflicted a major operational defeat on russia what is the strategic significance of the counterattack by ukrainian forces in the kharkiv region and can ukrainian forces repeat the same attack in other directions, we will talk about this later on the link oleksandr kovalenko military-political columnist of the information group opposition my greetings good day well, let's first talk about the strategic importance that russia lost, and after losing kharkiv region, well, first of all, it lost logistical arteries, such as there were vovchansky great eagles of kop'yansk. this was a very important logistical artery in terms of the supply of equipment e-e the link of means of the units

directly and all this material and technical support of the russian occupation troops to the izyum bridgehead yes to the izyum district why exactly was this important for them e-e in the izyum district because izyum was the center for the preparation of offensive actions in the direction of sloviansk and kramatorsk. they concentrated there a very large number of armored units of armored groups, but they were never able to start these offensive actions because the counter in our country is the armed forces of ukraine, it is generally their er, let's say, they underestimated their potential not only in the offensive, but also in the defense, and also through kharkiv oblast, due to the temporary occupation of the territory, supplies were also carried out at the expense of e-e logistics arteries by railways

and also by road routes of the supply of the force of means also e-e to the luhansk region and directly to the donetsk region, that is, one way or another, but these military actions of the russian invaders that took place during all this time in the luhansk region, in the donetsk region, they also had a connection with the kharkiv region. well, the most important thing, in my opinion, is the kharkiv region today this part, which was temporarily occupied, played a very important role as a security buffer, a security buffer for captured luhansk region and donetsk region. and now we see that this security buffer is no longer there. now we we see that the armed forces of ukraine are ready to move on, that is, i mean luhansk oblast and donetsk, listen, but the russian side has also heard that they were planning to withdraw, they say, to regroup troops to protect donbas and so

on, if you look at what is happening in kharkiv oblast, is it possible for them to believe that they really planned to leave from there, or does the operational situation on the ground say the opposite, this is a lie because when you prepare a redeployment, a regrouping, it happens, everything is coordinated, you don’t leave dozens of missing units of such very important equipment as tanks pmp armored personnel carriers other e-e wheeled chassis vehicles such as kamaz taural you do not leave a hundred or even hundreds of thousands of tons of ammunition in warehouses with masses this would not have happened if it was really all planned this is a lie on the part of the russian federation, because it is trying to somehow justify its defeat, its shame. and i want to remind you that in march 2022, the

same situation was on the northern bridgehead, the contour offensive actions of the armed forces of ukraine in chernihiv oblast, kyiv oblast and sumy oblast and they forced the russian occupiers to flee, they fled precisely on the territory of belarus, but how did they justify it? they said that they were redeploying and regrouping again, where to the donbas bridgehead? well, it seems to me that their methodology has not changed much since that time but we now understand in fact that they will lie in the same way on other bridgeheads, where control actions of the armed forces of ukraine will also take place after a while. by the way, just after um, since the russian forces withdrew from the kharkiv direction, a lot of people talked about the lend-lease from russia, they say russian russia entered the top five countries that supply the most weapons to the ukrainian forces, alluding to the fact that they

left a lot of weapons and artillery in kharkiv oblast. yes, it is true, but not only now. in fact, it has been the main supplier of equipment to the armed forces of ukraine for a long time, almost from the first days of the invasion of our territory, since february 24, and because we will see, the number of trophies has been confirmed, because there are a huge number of them, but in what positions we even received more tanks than the russian federation was able, for example , to receive as trophies from the tanks of the armed forces in ukraine, that is, we have much more trophy russian tanks than recorded, and the russians have trophy ukrainian tanks, and that is why it is not only about tanks, it is about many

positions, and their potential is really quite seriously untapped, and here is a video demonstration of the same thing ah, it’s uh, they demonstrated t-80 tanks, uh, it’s quite such a nice tank, but uh, they left them with full ammunition, they even left them with fuel tanks, they were ready to go, but to run away , to run away on a tracked chassis, hundreds kilometers, well , it’s not very convenient, that’s why they fled in the urals and on kamaz vehicles, and they left bmp tanks and other equipment. and please tell me where it would be possible to repeat a similar counterattack, for example, in the south or in luhansk region or in donetsk region, or is such an exceptional situation a window of opportunity has so far only in the kharkiv region, well, this is a window of opportunity that was created precisely by the constant training of the armed forces of

ukraine in the kharkiv region, and the walls, the impact of fire on the objects of the russian occupiers, on the warehouses , at the control points of the command post of the military units , and then this is a rapid the queue of control over the logistics arteries and this, again, everything was planned not in one day, in a week, these are all the conditions, they were created for months, in fact, during this summer, if we are talking about another bridgeheads, of course they are different from the kharkiv region. for example, if we are talking about the kherson region, then right now there are also contour offensive actions there, but not so rapidly . still forests. this is the use of this element for maneuvers for rapid assault actions about the kherson region -

this is a field landing field field city landing then you have to somehow cross this field we are on in an open space, any assault actions in an open space is suicide, that is, you are seen by the enemy's artillery. it starts shelling , therefore, the actions of the ukrainian forces are more careful about them in the kherson region, that is why they seem to be slow, but these are the conditions. and the same in other directions if we are talking about luhansk and donetsk oblasts, then the situation is here. and those territories that were captured back in 2022, and they have very weak lines of defense from the side of the occupiers. but if we are talking about the territory that is in occupation since 2014 in luhansk and donetsk regions, a large number of defense lines and fortifications were equipped there, which will interfere with the rather rapid

advance of the armed forces of ukraine, and it escaped, therefore, in my opinion, and the ptu can today liberate a significant part of luhansk and of the donetsk region , that part that was captured in 2022, but exactly when we will talk only about the approach to the defense line in 2014, the territory that was captured, then primarily non-storm forces will work there units and artillery and this will take some time, it will take some time for the artillery, all these lines of defense. she actually made them like this, well, she ground them like a meat grinder there, after that, the current units will already be operating, thank you very much for your comment oleksandr kovalenko of the air force group's informational resistance was on radio freedom . well, balakleia is a key city from which the ukrainian blitzkrieg actually began in the kharkiv region. i suggest you see what the city looks like now, and what the local residents are saying there for three months in the basement

well, some of them are still alive, well, we somehow went out, we had to have a cocktail, we had to eat somehow. - our colors are blue, they put the phone on the floor, broke the example and now when ukraine came, that is, we honestly didn't expect it, we honestly didn't expect it, when i saw our saints with chevrons, the ukrainian flag,

oh, it's great, great, yesterday we were with a friend met our guys who hung the flag at the administration and today they already raised it we are very happy and tears are just tears in the throats of people happy that they finally got back home, then they are not freed from the roshen occupation what else is there in negota there are no basements, there is no fsb and so on далее но при етом люди травматизирован име этой же окупации it was balaklia after the occupation well, ukrainian law enforcement officers have already begun to investigate possible crimes of the russian army in the liberated territories of kharkiv oblast, the village of railway one of such settlements where the bodies of

civilians were found, about this our next video can be said to be dead , but no, we don’t need a broom yet. let there be so much value in the eyes, a huge bed of blood, a neighbor tells me they came in. i'm touching a calm person, just russian. in the morning, they killed

10 people here, and then at noon they started yelling like besheny, they started to run away in a stupid way, stupidly, they gave tanks to the bmp and they started to stupidly leave. well, it was a railway village in the kharkiv region, where already the law enforcement officers bodies of dead civilians begin to be discovered, and we continue to talk about the events in kharkiv, kharkiv oblast. what is the situation where you are? if you can name me in the city of kharkiv and in kharkiv itself. and please tell me, did you

travel through these liberated territories? returned after the transfer of certain aid probably returned to kharkiv well, well, if we talk about what it is happening in the occupied territories, but in the newly liberated ones. more precisely, those that were recently under occupation, but if you look at kupyansk, there is already a river there. oh, and i understand that the western part of kupyansk is already controlled by the armed forces of ukraine, but the eastern part is not yet. well, you can correct me there, the enemy has drawn such a strategic line of defense along the oskol river , that’s why russian units are deployed there, this is a smaller part of the city, it’s relatively small, but nevertheless, the enemy is entrenched there. well, of course,

my battles are there. well, no, they are not aggressive, but they continue. the enemy is trying to gain a foothold there. i don’t think they will succeed in this for a long time. but they are really there. please tell me. and in which one are these russian troops who retreated from kharkiv oblast? well, for according to your observations, how combat-capable they are, and they can be regrouped and where they can be thrown further , for example, in our country during the balaklia offensive operation, and they maintain, or so he said, controllability in terms of their combat capability, uh, they of course, the ukrainian army, as we know from the very beginning of the war, has a higher combat capability, therefore, compared to us. of course, they are less combat capable, otherwise we could not destroy the enemy with such an absolute superiority of the enemy, for example, in aviation,

a great advantage, a great advantage a-a a-a artillery ammunition, so really, it was absolutely not easy, what was happening, what was happening, and our victory is not the result, how can anyone think that the enemy simply collapsed and ran away because he felt very bad about himself does he feel or did he just decide not to do anything? no , the offensive operation is effective only because the ukrainian troops are more combat-ready and the enemy was forced to flee and throw away equipment because he was put in such conditions where further resistance would simply lead to complete encirclement and destruction, but the enemy was able

to withdraw a significant amount of equipment, despite his simply insane losses , he was able to withdraw, and hmm, now we understand that he was also able to withdraw a number of people, for sure, that is why they are now being replenished, restoring the defense well, they will now try to restore combat capability. please tell me the people who, in fact, were guides and cooperated with russian forces in the occupied parts of kharkiv region for six months. did they take these people with them or did they stay there to wait for ukrainian law enforcement officers? and in general, how should this continue to happen, ideally, there was no organized withdrawal of the russian federation , that is, no organized withdrawal

took place, there was, in principle, in principle save yourself, who can, that's why such a quick panic retreat of the russian troops was enough, they gave up everything and threw a significant number of their servicemen, someone who managed to escape quickly from the collaborators, they escaped, but a significant number, a significant amount remained, and now it is quite quickly and effectively our military, the national guard, we must give credit, very seriously carries out filtering measures, and the police, the police, almost immediately, arrived and conducts a round of the apartment, i thought, collects information, in principle, enough enough, enough serious attention, serious work is being done

to the viewers, that not long ago, there was a ban on working for journalists on the front line during this past weekend, when kharkiv oblast was being liberated , all these videos and photos that we had to see came from of the military, you are generally a journalist, a military correspondent who works with your hands and on the front line. how should you treat such a decision, unfortunately, this is a decision about the limited information at the beginning of the operation when it was when active actions had already begun, and in my opinion, it was correct and justified, but after the successful breakthrough, i believe that it was a big mistake to continue this ban, there is no military necessity in it now, since active actions actually well, everything happened in the first three

days, and in these three days, no one published anything, everything was quiet and calm, but after that, for example, journalists were very much needed. i am sure that at this point there should have been an explanation from people about what was happening, and this strengthened our successes even more because the defense breakthrough had already taken place there were successful battles for the chatter of the entourage, a successful breakthrough to kupyansk, and after that we had to turn on information support and show our victory, unfortunately, we do not have information interaction planning. and i want to say that there is a special combat statute, statute 631 the fm of the american army, which describes informational psychological operations, is open, accessible to

everyone, and there is a clear regulation of work with the media. i believe that we still need to take the positive experience of nato countries in our war, we depend the motivation of our army from the support of civil society and volunteers, the arming of our army from the support of the governments and peoples of 50 countries of the world, and of course, when something is successful in our country and we have achieved success, it is our task as journalists to provide opportunities for other journalists from other countries and ourselves to be as active as possible to cover everything that is happening in the combat zone, success has already been achieved, now it’s just that, such a narrow loophole is being created, and in order to have to go somewhere and ask someone, in my opinion, it’s simple a certain misunderstanding, they understand what is happening at the front and where our soldiers get their motivation from. they get their motivation from the support

of their people, but to show, if not to show the war and exploits, how we go forward and liberate our cities and villages, and i will honestly say that i am surprised by what is happening now yuriy, thank you very much. we are glad to see and hear you on our air. yuriy butusov, editor-in- chief of censor.net, a military correspondent was on radio svoboda. hundreds of thousands of ukrainians were left without electricity the night before in poltava oblast, dnipropetrovsk oblast, kharkiv oblast, sumy oblast, donetsk oblast, this happened as a result of one of the most massive shelling of the energy infrastructure of ukraine among those attacked by russia , kharkiv tets-5 and zmiivska tets-5 and zmiivska, which are also kharkiv oblast, as well as high- voltage substations, according to preliminary data , four energy workers were killed during the shelling, three were wounded this was announced by energy minister herman galushchenko. russia has previously attacked critical

infrastructure, but the day before, as a result of these shellings, electricity was instantly lost at the same time. hundreds of thousands of ukrainians remained and at the same time in several regions, which had never actually happened before, like last night kharkiv survived without lights and under shelling, let's show more bang well, she scratched us a little bit there, well, she didn't cut us very much , but accordingly, the shaking of the head feels bad i was just sitting there all you said was there was no color and the candles were lit and you can see the wave went and i had it so beautifully and more he wrote it he suffered the frame was knocked out completely

there are no windows, there is no ceiling. the only one is a good bathroom and a mirror. er, the transformer oil was stripped, and we needed to put out the fires as quickly as possible , er, localize these fires for today , the city of kharkiv preparatory work

is underway in the holodogorsk district, as of this morning, 80% of the electricity supply has been restored in the kharkiv region, but this afternoon, russia again struck the city. this was reported by the head of the region, oleg synogubov, and even temporarily had to stop the subway in kharkiv. maryan kushnir maryany my greetings, what is the situation in the city now? i congratulate you. the situation is quiet right now, but for literally half an hour there, there was an air alarm and you can hear it. there were explosions in the city. there are very frequent air alarms here, and the light supply was recently restored, the city began to be supplied with electricity, ah, it was in the morning, it’s worth saying, but there was another strike a and e , the power supply disappeared, they restored it very quickly, as in me in the end as a result of today 's one more strike. and these were strikes from the rockets

of the salvo fire system, and cluster missiles will be used, and they actually flew to the center of the city, and one man was killed. wounded and also in one of the buildings there was such a big fire, a large-scale fire, the whole building was on fire, and about 80 firefighters were eliminating the consequences of this very network in neighboring houses, hats were blown, cars were cut, cars were beaten, uh, it was clearly visible even these small, such funnels
