dolgit relieves pain, reduces swelling and improves the mobility of joints and back greetings dear viewers, on the air of the espresso tv channel, the verdict program my name is antin borkovskyi, we will analyze the most important events, in particular, what is happening on our fronts and we will try to summarize the general trends, the situation is extremely difficult, if not hellishly difficult, the situation under bakhmut, well, now a little statistics, the total combat losses of the enemy from february 24 to december 7 approximately amounted to about 92,740 personnel, tanks were eliminated, 2,935 units of armored combat vehicles 5,909 units of artillery systems, 1,923 units of jet

systems, hall of fire, 395 units of air defense equipment, 211 units of aircraft, 281 a unit of helicopters 264 units of unmanned aerial vehicles of the operational-tactical level 1601 a unit of cruise missiles 592 ships and boats 16 units of automobile equipment and tankers 4526 units of special equipment 163 units we understand with what blood our path to victory is given well and now we will analyze the situation under the bachmouth and in general, in the donetsk direction , andriy ilenko, an officer of the freedom battalion of the national guard of ukraine, is in touch with us precisely from this hellishly

difficult part of the front. glory to ukraine and andriy i congratulate you, i won’t say anything new, and i won’t ask anything specifically new. the situation is hellishly difficult. we have unofficial official information, in particular, it’s about the enemy’s losses, and we understand that it’s about our losses, but i’d like to start where something else, in particular, i’d like you to clarify why the enemy in particular prenabahmut with the whole , i don't know, some kind of soviet-zhukov trend , i.e. throwing corpses at everything and all the same rod and rod why exactly bakhmut mmm a bit of a bad connection uh-uh i didn't hear the end of the question but in principle i understood that the situation is such that, well, it is difficult to say why he is pre. well, why are they in

ukraine at all? i don’t know. it is a difficult question. there are many reasons. well, i think that the main reason is political and propaganda. they have suffered too many defeats in recent months. we have lost many battles on kharkiv oblast and kherson oblast are not considered by them. they need at least some kind of rehabilitation, they need some money, some sort of revenge, at least somewhere. they have to show that they can still advance. actually, bukhnuti was elected precisely with these reasoning beliefs, and well, in fact all they have that is still combat-ready. all the combat-ready parts they have now thrown here, that is, now everything is here, and the wagnerites are here. and really, all they have left now is all this andriy aha yes yes they will try on us eh eternal hello hello yes- yes, yes, i hear you, well, there are certain interruptions in communication, but

it is clear for what reasons, yes, sterling, something is not working well. in short, there are a lot of battles, a lot of shelling, a lot of assaults, that is, there are regular assaults every few hours. but the ukrainian defense is strong and the gunpowder carries large amounts losses, e.e., the ukrainian positions are held, in particular, those positions that are defined by our battalion of freedom and the fourth brigade of the operational assignment of the national guard, that is, all this very difficult work is exhausting work, hellish work, it is being done, the ukrainian fortress bakhmut is standing strong, there is no threat of encirclement or anything like that , respectively well, it is necessary to understand that there is really a very serious battle going on now, it has been going on for many months, but the last few weeks are already the culmination of this battle, and that video in particular

which the viewers can see now is the results of the work of our artillerymen and mortars, you can understand that we are also pouring heavily on the enemy and the enemy is suffering heavy losses, so accordingly, our editors have prepared another small video from under the bahmut or from under the bahmut whatever you want, let's take a look together now. well, after that, i hope. andriy will comment on this case on december 7. the city of bakhmut . the situation is currently in the city.

infantry attacks are being repelled, so everything is fine, wait for good news p andrii well, we understand at what cost the phrase everything is fine but it is possible that if we are talking about the so-called good news, then maybe something is happening, well, the key task, as far as we understand the russian interventionists, is to demonstrate that their shaft of fire and the readiness to send their fresh from the mobilized and so on literally to death, in particular, it is about our fire positions where they suffer huge losses, well, this whole thing should prove their readiness to continue the offensive so what can be good or good news, look, i always have one rule, i never give any predictions except one prediction that we

will win, well, if i don't chase some headlines, i don't know, well, it's obvious that there will be good news, but talk about it in two days in three days in a week well, i don't do that and i don't like to do that there will be good news, we will definitely announce it and everyone knows about it at the moment we just know for sure that we will win that everything will be fine in general but now there are tough battles and i'm not very i want to make some, you know, promises in the forecasts. i don't want to do that. well, if that's the specifics of the winter war, it's about the provision of our enemies and the provision of our soldiers. what is the current situation, and what are your observations? war in winter, war in summer, these are completely different things, of course, the cold affects it very much. before that, the frost was knee-deep in mud. now

it 's very cold at night, it's already down to minus ten, of course . in fact, already more than two thirds of the day - it's dark, it's night, it also very much affects the general situation, the nature of the hostilities, the specifics of these hostilities, and that's why, of course, all this affects uh, well, they affect both sides, you understand what eh, definitely us it is more difficult in the winter period, but the enemy is also more difficult in the winter period , i.e. here it plays both ways and accordingly eh . it's obvious what it is it is very important, but how much everything is being done and everything is possible so that our fighters are provided for, and in this regard, a big thank you, of course, to the volunteers,

but the state also provides, that is, there are no critical problems with provision. of course, war is such a huge furnace into which resources and everything fly there is always not enough of everything, more is always needed, but there are no critical problems. in this regard, there is nothing, in principle, the situation with the enemy is ensured, which we understand, so that on the one hand, they are fighting fresh from the mobilized, but they are also fighting there wagner is valued by the wagnerites. as far as i understand, there are two types: they are former veterans of various departments who have already participated in hot spots in battles. maybe heavy mortars, well, the specifics of today's

russian army is that it basically exists like a feudal institution, that is, there are some games, separate groups, there are separate wagners everything, which exist as a separate structure, which has its own subordination, which actually has its own defense, its own artillery means, well, in principle, this means that it’s very ah, it’s not. let’s put it this way, it’s a good symptom for them. it’s rather the opposite. but from the point of view of the battle, in principle, what is the difference to us ? well, which one of them? it will be a russian from the regular army, whether it will be some wagnerian or some mercenary, in principle, there is no special difference for us. it is clear that they above all, they use such a feature, that is, the wagnerites that they are mobs, but there are a lot of prisoners in russian prisons, precisely those who were imprisoned there for

life or for some long terms, and they simply use them as disposable soldiers, that is, they simply throw them on the wall like meat in order to conduct reconnaissance with them they use them to deflect er-e in order to focus fire on them and at that time others er-e will try to pass there on the flanks and so on, we understand these tactical techniques and do not react to them accordingly. one of these features there are really a lot of wagnerians there, and we manage to get out there. there is no level of provision there. that is, they are very badly provided for there, because in principle no one expects that they lived long. that is, their life time at the front . that's why in this situation, if there were such things, well, that is, against us, such a horde in its purest form, ah, hmm, well, basically, of course , this is human garbage, which they themselves feel sorry for,

but of course there are also professional killers, there are mercenaries well, you shouldn't underestimate it either. well, they are are also used in these battles. and how do they have armed equipment? of course, they have armored vehicles . if they didn’t have armored vehicles, it would be easier for us. i mean, what class and what models are they using now? we are talking about heavy armored vehicles. i don’t know t-72. or something else, tanks are only in service in russia, the russian army is the same t-72 and other and older modifications, that is , armored personnel carriers well, everything is basically the same as usual . in the russian army, that is, there is no separate armored vehicle for the wagnerites, but the level of provision is at the current in the current phase of the battle

, the level of providing them with this heavy armored vehicle, that is, there is a feeling that they are somehow running out of it. well, of course, and much less than it was there at the beginning of the war, because 9 months is already more than 9 months of war, a huge amount of their armored vehicles was burned and destroyed for the trophy of our army, that is, it is clear that it is less, but still they are quite large stocks of defense equipment that are from soviet times, yes they may be outdated, they may be poorly modified, but still, there is a tank on the field, they are afraid of a tank on the battlefield and it must be destroyed and it is not so easy, that is, of course, they still have quite a lot of armored vehicles and they still have quite a lot of artillery and and less than it was before, obviously less, but there is enough of a panacea, you mentioned

the so-called understanding on the part of the wagnerites themselves , or is it possible that their mortality is fresh from the mobilized ones, that they are used as minced meat in putin's geopolitical meat grinder, that is, that they they are left to live for a week or two, that is, no one takes care of them, they are thrown into our firing positions, they die . well, accordingly, the question is how is it now with the surrender of prisoners or are they preparing? and our units took all this action, that is, those prisoners whom you chose are all prisoners, and look at them very harshly with this, that is, they shoot those who do not want to go on the offensive , they shoot for trying to leave the battlefield to leave in the direction of a, they have a barrier of the order e that is, in this regard, everything is like in the second world war. maybe it is even tougher in places, that is,

the situation with prisoners is such that it is still necessary to wait until the moment to be able to surrender, that is, first they can kill their own and then, of course, the ukrainian army is also working and defends the positions and it is still necessary to get to these positions, somehow, identify it as a prisoner, and so on. well, of course, those who surrender themselves as prisoners, they surrender themselves to prisoners, and we act according to the norms of international law, what do they apply weapons they are not just people who are thrown without the same kalashnikovs into position, they can use weapons against their escorts. well, for sure, but you know the rhetorical question here, in principle, the history of mankind proves that, in principle, many people can be turned into an absolute herd humble me, there is nothing particularly difficult about this, but if we

are talking about a country like russia, which has always acted like this, well, we give the second world war terrible battalions and so on. that's why they didn't turn their weapons there and shoot those who shot in the back, well, a good question. why, because before that these people were brought to such a state that they were in principle already in complete slavish subjugation. but if we are talking about those who are now against us , they are in principle in such a situation from the very beginning. that is, it is simple well, the garbage is the real thing, well, you can go out for yourself, for example, in which of the russian prisons they sat there for serious crimes well, in principle, i do not think that it is a difficult task to throw them into battle in such a format if you have the right shoot them for any disobedience and so on. well, they do this. well, this is what comrade trotsky once said that a soldier of the red army must be put in front of inevitable death by his own

if he does not want to go into an attack with possible death by a culvert, well, they act according to this principle, they shoot for absolutely any non-fulfillment of an order for any attempt to desert or surrender, uh, death immediately, in principle. well, if i wasn’t surprised that this is exactly what happens in the end, mr. andriyu, i would ask you to evaluate the dynamics of the battles under bakhmut during the next month, in particular there november, the beginning of december, that is, do you feel that the enemy may be exhaling little by little, or on the contrary, the situation is radically different, definitely, the enemy is exhaling, the enemy is exhausting his strength, eh, but until that moment to say that he is already completely exhausted, unfortunately, we cannot say so, that is , heavy battles are going on and in these heavy battles, the enemy suffers

huge losses, the losses of the enemy are really huge , how much will they still have enough to endure such losses and replenish, restore, i don't know, but in any case, it doesn't matter much to us we will destroy the enemy as long as it takes. thank you, mr. andrii. thank you for your service and for participating in our broadcast. andrii ilenko, an officer of the svoboda battalion, who is currently fighting under bakhmut or under bakhmut. thank you once again, mr. andrii. military expert. well, glory to ukraine, mykhailo. congratulations, you hear. you see it as a hero. glory, we just finished our conversation with andriy ilyenko, an officer who is actively fighting under bakhmut. well, accordingly, here is such a naive possible question. why with such stubbornness idiot, the russians grabbed bakhmut, the losses

are huge, they can not attract any additional resources there, except for those parts that they took out, in particular, from the right bank, but all the same, they stick and stick specifically at bakhmut, for what purpose, and with the military they did about a month ago uh, they probed the entire defense of our defense in the donetsk region, and only under fire they managed to achieve at least the smallest results, uh, there they stretched the defense in some places, seizing our uh, observation points, so they decided that uh it is precisely on bahmut that they can achieve strategic success. and regarding the fact that they can not transfer additional forces and resources, i would not agree with you, because now they are mobilizing and, in addition, chvk wagner is gaining

a lot well, the content of the people. and from the place where the prisoners are, that's why right now there is a redraw of reserves and forces that are transferred from russia, mr. mykhailo, but on the other hand, we understand that these are not personnel units, that is, fresh from mobilized or former prisoners russian prisons they do not make up what is called professional military, these are people who were trained, i don't know whether for a couple of weeks or maybe a month at the most. since they were given a machine gun, they drew some task, they put a brigadier from the wagnerites over them, and their epic to the death began, and there is no question here sympathy is not sympathy, but i would ask you to evaluate how combat-ready these parts are , because the light from the mobilized, as we understand, cannot

always decide on the battlefield, although the issue of quantity is also an extremely important story a well, here now there was such a nuance on their side as the weather conditions for the last two or three weeks in donbas there was constant fog and launching drones that adjusted the fire of our artillery, well, of course, it was quite difficult for their artillery, that's why the advantage in personnel became critical, i.e. if before that they were stockpiling, they had time to attack them with artillery strikes in these are all these forces. well, it was not impossible to use them, now, in the absence of artillery, they are just tactics of the second world war when they reached our trenches the wagnerites, and then the mobilized er-e captured these trenches and were already holding well, as they could in these

conditions, whoever has more personnel wins . and in order for them to be able to hold on, you understand, that's why at the moment there was an advantage over them for 2-3 weeks, then it was precisely in this and in this parameter that the situation is changing now. well , i wanted to talk with you now about the so-called lead, we understand why she is needed to the russians, that is, they would try to reformat their combat-ready units to equip them with both equipment and personnel , and perhaps this scheme really does not work in the current situation. because the level of motivation, well, based on the same sociological surveys in the russian federation, is not too high . they still cannot understand

why this war is for them. well, accordingly, various signals are beginning to arrive from the side of various kremlin circles, including official criminals in official representatives of the kremlin, yes that is, they are starting to say again that the negotiations are stalled, that they would be ready, but they would need a guarantee and so on. president zelenskyi answered them quite clearly, let's listen to president zelenskyi now, and i will ask mr. mykhailo to analyze why the russians are belching and belching about the so-called respite ukraine ukraine and the free world should definitely not change their goals and exchange their values ​​for some compromises, if the dictatorship is afraid to admit a mistake and tempts before the end of the battles, we must fully to protect freedom and guarantee the safety of our democracy, whoever started an unprovoked and criminal war must lose and bear

responsibility. ukraine and the world must receive guarantees of peace, stability and security, respectively, mr. mykhailo, it is extremely comprehensive, but we see several very interesting signals, that is, the enemy needs ukraine before that the enemy does not care what this reorganization is for and what can be expected in the event that the enemy will not be in a position to achieve it. and now the russian military and political leadership becomes a complex problem and this is a problem not only in the situation on the fronts, but a problem with the availability of weapons uh, first of all, i mean high-precision missile weapons, which every day they have less and less of them and they can produce them and but for this you need some time ago, they badly

needed any kind of, you know, a lull on the front, let's say a transfer to a positional war so that they could mobilize what kind of labor reserves they were able to buy on the grays arms markets have some elements for that to produce weapons and they now need missile weapons, that is why they are not looking for an opportunity for it to be a truce in order to accumulate value. yes, but on the other hand, there is also a question of motivation. in your opinion , putin generally managed to explain to the russians why they started an intervention in ukraine, that is, it is not about some kind of propaganda slogans launched by their war criminals, their hebel sivshchyna, yes, it is not about a deep understanding of what this afghan war is for, the so-called war, the war

for itself, the soviet afghan, it acquired extremely negative connotation in the soviet society at that time, because the average soviet citizen, meeting zinc coffins from afghanistan, could not find out for himself what kind of absolutely crazy international duty they were fulfilling there. well, but after that they began to bring out, well, of course, the heroic resistance of the diverse, multi-tribal afghan people, so to speak, contributed to this extremely actively and, accordingly, the question of internal russian motivation. well, from my point of view, it is somewhat incorrect in comparison with afghan property. the fact is that in the middle of this war, it coincided with the so

-called glasnost annexation, and they began to write about this war on television, in newspapers, and now in in russia, the situation is completely different. i, uh, all the mass media in the topic are active media sphere. it is tightly under the control of the kremlin, and therefore, now the deep people see only such uh, you know, reports from the front, which are enough. well, in this is the way they show this war in the main form. as far as i understand, analyzing the situation in the middle of russia, they still support putin because you are the elements, they very, very coolly play on imperial ambitions for history, they compare it to the second world war with a big
