there is still no information about the dead and wounded. well, the destruction is clear. the rockets are huge when they fly. it is clear that the consequences are not the destruction of a small city. unfortunately, the movement of people has stopped. in fact, the occupiers did n’t let them out for the last few days, or only one person knew how to pass yesterday . in vasylivka, the vasylivsky crossing point, this is very negative, and in addition to what you said, the doctors there, according to uh, in certain communities, uh, they force uh to go to work and conclude agreements, they also don’t let doctors in to work if they do not conclude such agreements , that means pressure and coercion to collaborate on the part of the terrorist occupation forces continues, mr. oleksandr, what is the situation in our territories that are controlled by our armed forces and which you are currently coordinating, what is the situation with electricity, heat, and

water supply in general in the zaporizhzhia region well the situation is again described in three stories of the occupied territory. it is clear that there are different stories. the most difficult situation continues in the communities that are directly on the line of contact. to the front about vinnytsia, and there are hostilities there, it is most difficult there, the light periodically goes out there, there was no stepnohorsky for two days, while our well-known energy workers restored the knights, repaired what was damaged. outages in order to balance the energy system. well , when it is exaggerated, a system of emergency shutdowns is introduced for a little 25 mw in the morning. it was introduced in our country because a little they exceeded it, after all, they entered the norm of consumption, it is clear that all systems are working, but they are working with loads that are

a little unbalanced, because when the supply of electricity is limited, it affects the water supply and heat supply, but at the moment everything is functioning, but of course in such a complicated regime, mr. oleksandr, there is no feeling that the enemy is stretching its forces in the zaporizhzhia region, will try to break through, climb up, in particular, to the regional center, well, if many experts were talking about it, different uh, there are less of them they said maybe less they were fortified without that side of the garlic if it failed in march when we actually didn’t have anything in that direction except for small territorial defense forces and the heroic 128th brigade if then they didn’t succeed when we didn’t have fortifications we didn’t have anything well, i didn't think that he would be able to do it at all. at the moment, i think that everyone should be ready and continue

. for our armed forces, we are continuing all the measures that will make our defense even stronger. but it is clear that the main thing is our armed forces and our soldiers, which are our soldiers who defend the borders , and i am convinced that the enemy will not succeed in anything, but that the forces are thrown periodically it happens because we are a transit territory, if you take kherson crimea between kherson and the crimea of ​​donetsk region, then periodically through uh, the transfer of troops goes uh, they replenish the stock, bring new mobs there and so on well, this is happening, what news is coming from kakhovka and nova kakhovka, because there were rumors that the enemy is already trying to withdraw combat-ready groups from there, and there is news that they are going to completely leave nova kakhovka as a tile, but there is some

rather interesting scenario, write it down, please, look . well, this is the kherson region , in fact, but we are a little over there, our neighbors are actually nearby, if down the dnieper from the side of the energy supply, then e on the left bank will be kakhovka, nova kakhovka, well, it is not located on the dam where the kakhovskaya hpp is located, and i understood that they understand that there is a danger of a breakthrough there and our troops but at the same time, let's say that the information was that they were being withdrawn and we have all the information, let's say on our territories, as a rule , it was not confirmed, it was a rotation. you can’t, well, even look at the fact that they left kherson, they squeezed out, more precisely , they gave out our troops, squeezed them out of there, but now kherson is subject to heavy shelling, so you still can’t relax and use all measures are necessary so that we can strengthen

our defense, our capabilities and help the armed forces more so that they can move in the right direction, the liberation of our territories . we are trying hard to collect the most important information, now we would like to update you on the situation in energodar, we understand that the secretary of megate gave certain positive signals well, it says in quotes or without quotes about what is possible by the new year, the enemy would have left, this is how he took out, let's say, such heavy artillery from the territory of the zaporizhzhia nuclear power station, maybe there is now a certain advance, but these hints of raphael grossi turned out to be empty, relatively speaking, as he said here and the president of one of the jsm countries stated this, if that is why we

hope we have hope that the statements of such dignitaries, including the president of france, have not only grounds but also testify to the fact that our partners will make every effort to ensure that words do not remain only words, for now there are no changes, as i think, according to the situation with the shelling of nikopol and manganese, you see, it did not happen, unfortunately, unfortunately, very much . thank you, mr. oleksandr, for working on this holiday day both in his position and live on the espresso tv channel, we congratulate the residents of zaporizhzhia on today's great holiday, st. nicholas' day. oleksandr the old, the head of the zaporizhzhia regional military administration, worked with us now, and we the mykolaiv regional military administration is in touch with us. vitaly, we are glad to see and hear. happy st. nicholas day to you and all the residents of this beautiful city, the patron of which is

st. nicholas. have a good day. thank you, too. happy holiday to all the saints of mykolaiv oblast . well, but at the same time, we understand how difficult the situation is, so at night the enemy launched a rocket attack on the pervomaiskyi district of the mykolaiv region, and in general we understand that the enemy is regularly shelling your area, it will probably fly into the city, please describe it, please in the current situation, it does not fly into the city of pervomaysk region, either, it was not fired with rocket fire, the martyrs who were killed flew there . we have periodic shelling of the ochakiv and kontsurub communities, fortunately without casualties, that is, after the liberation of kherson, such a large part of the kherson and mykolaiv regions is much better in us. we are going much better as we look together with the kherson region to continue our work and allow the occupiers to deploy there, mykolaiv region shot down all the martyrs

who just got into this area of ​​responsibility and it is impossible not to note mr. vitaly, if we talk about the situation on the kinburn spit, where there are still a-a certain number of occupiers, we understand that the combat work of our defense forces continues there, so far we do not have any details, nevertheless, something a little bit eh well, let's say extraordinary, probably there is such it happened because the occupiers are writing in the media about the alleged use of tactical nuclear weapons by us on the kinbur spit, well, this is of course ridiculous and does not fit within the limits of common sense, but obviously something really interesting for the occupiers of our defense force to come but exclusively within the limits of let's say that of all conventional weapons, it's true. well, look, it's really funny because it's a 9 kg thermobaric

thermobaric munition that's been refined there . it's a normal munition used by the military . such a distance so they raised this panic, because on the video it looks quite serious well, in fact, these are the developments of our volunteers who finalized something and now, uh, we will complete a couple of three such things, one will go to bakhmut i will work a few more in our lane. what is the situation in mykolaiv with heat supply and water? i will answer the mysterious water in our country. it is getting better and better in terms of supply. we did not turn off even the district boiler houses at night in order for the heat supply to warm up the homes because it is

colder here. although plus we have, but for now the situation is fully controlled and the heat is off schedule, we are following the damage and critical infrastructure, there is no power supply, mr. chairman, what is the situation in the mykolaiv region. we are currently working in schedules without emergency shutdowns, i.e. 4x2 or two by four, depending on the substations in the city of mykolaiv, let's say 4 hours there is light for two hours there is no, we work at 100%, the limits that ukrenergo proves to us, this is what concerns the light. let's say that it is stable that it does not concern the deficit in the energy system, it is also present, but at the state level they are working with it and restoring generation throughout ukraine. what does the assistance to the suffering kherson region, which is adjacent to the mykolaiv region, look like now? we understand that

you are probably also under a lot of pressure. well, of course, it is a noble thing, because we understand that the enemy regularly strikes kherson, unfortunately, the enemy is a bit er. as they say, he is rude, i forgot how to use ukrainian. oh, i have so many synonyms, you know, and all the obscenities are all about the enemy, yes about this, too, i think so, how is this memory, this is a question, there are certain actions that are already working, there are improvements on smuggling in the fight, but i will not talk about it in detail, uh, kherson should hold on, uh, they are terrorizing him, this is what happened with us the first months of the war there that we we we understand the kherson people very well, but this situation will be corrected, i think in the near future, but the military situation is like this now

, vitaly, you don’t know if the enemies are going to, despite common sense, again, somehow, return to the right bank of the dnieper there is information that they took up some positions there, either in the floodplains or on the islands, which is considered a gray zone, but they are rushing there. does this mean that they will try to cross the dnieper again? somehow, i do not have such information. well, i do have only the information that they really do not have common sense, but we have fighting crayfish and crabs that are now taking turns at the growth of the mouths of the dnieper and they will not succeed in anything. that is, it is extremely unlikely, because there is a lot of playing with your head, mr. well, a couple of minutes ago in our the head of the zaporozhye administration oleksandr starukh worked on the air. accordingly, we began to ask him about the situation in kakhovka and nova kakhovka, so there are rumors that the enemy is going to

withdraw heavy weapons from there, or perhaps you can supplement some of their units information on kakhovka and nova kakhovka although it would not be directly yours, so to speak, but well, i cannot confirm that they are going to leave, they are maneuvering , moving in them, let's say so wedding in malinovka that is, there they themselves cannot understand who is going where and who is moving where, because everything is very chaotic, that is, if some unit left there, i think they did not leave it, but are they rotating what are they changing, what are they changing the deployment because they are afraid of the armed forces of ukraine in places constantly dislocations, that is, their migration there is definitely there, but i cannot confirm the record that they were taken out of the territory of the kherson region or further, so we understand what concerns the migration of the enemy, anyway, they

regularly fly in, but they use this sneaky, insidious nazi tactics , that is, they bring in artillery shelling our settlements well, and then, so to speak, they crawl quickly, perhaps you now have some kind of vision regarding the coverage of enemy groups on the left bank of the dnieper i really have it, but i can’t say about it. it should be reported to the military command for the purpose of what they are filtering. the s300 missiles have been renewed, which have a longer radius of attack at the moment, well, this fact has already been monitored at least twice, they have already extended this arm to

about 150 km, thank you, this can have consequences, well, in any case, thank you very much, mr. head yes yes i like her decided to celebrate the new year in mykolaiv after all, and well, it's difficult, we understand psychologically and from a security point of view, but what do you think about it, it's it, it's what you decided to do, it's the same thing that says a lot, see it's a creative idea, it's the mayor's idea he suggested the city of mykolaivchenkovych and we did it, let's say so with the help of volunteers. i think it's right because we really need to celebrate, but it's completely unholy to say so, because saint nicholas will soon defend us for 300 days from a three-day, three-day

attack, so everyone should rest, everyone should return to a calm normal life, but for now it is not yet the time to fully open this christmas tree there with the fair, and even more so in our country . hidden, let's say so, from the uh-he shelling with sacks, a beautiful christmas tree came out of it, that is, we will have a christmas tree with a military christmas tree, let's say that on the head, in a few days, the great christian holiday christmas is coming to us. well, accordingly , the process of transition, so to speak, is underway us on the gregorian or the new julian calendar, updated, what are the trends in mykolaiv , in the mykolaiv region, there are none well, everything is fine

, we will celebrate both in the old and new sts gregorian that is, we like to celebrate, we will celebrate three times this is how i predict that it will be the same well to tell the truth, i didn't even follow these events because there is a lot of work at the end of the year, we want to be there in time . i did as much of my work as possible, which we should do, that's why i let this question out of sight a little - probably it didn't come to me, now i know now, i'll clarify and next time i'll be able to give you a detailed answer. thank you, mr. head. congratulations once again you and the residents of your glorious mykolaiv with the current great holiday st. nicholas day to our tv viewers, i will remind him that he worked for them now on the live

air of our marathon vitaliy yak, the head of the mykolaiv regional military administration well, we are moving on roman kostenko people's deputy of ukraine, secretary of the verkhovna rada committee on national security, colonel of the security service of ukraine, mr. roman, we are in touch, congratulations glory to ukraine glory to the heroes well , actually, let's start with the fact that president volodymyr zelenskyi held another meeting of the supreme commander-in-chief on sunday, at which attention was paid it would be strange not to pay attention to the situation in belarus, taking into account the fact that putin and lukashenko are meeting there today and we are already talking about some kind of joint training. february 24 is impossible to forget. are you sorry now, mr. roman, is it really the preparation of any maneuvers in our direction on the part of belarus? is maneuvering in the literal and

figurative sense er because now the training is already underway in belarus and we can see directly how they are moving troops across belarus towards the er polish border and towards us that's what it is to the troops lukashenko he has been maneuvering from the very beginning and if russia had won such a war, i think he would have already entered the er war intelligence was the bordeaux ministry of defense, there was the security service, and we talked alternately with representatives and leaders there , and of course, one of the main topics was the war, including belarus, and the future plans of the russian federation. discussed a lot of such issues, what can be said in general, that yes, uh, russia

is trying to drag belarus into a war, this is not , uh, let's say, news for no one, but the fact that they are trying to do it every day, well, let's say, it's getting more serious, and we also see and hints in the form of the death of even the minister of foreign affairs of belarus, and i think that this was also lukashenko's hint that he controls everything from them to his country. therefore, to sum it up, russia is trying but groups and troops capable of entering ukraine and perform at least some preliminary task. at the moment , there is no one or two that we can consider . if they concentrate there, we will see. well, mr. colonel, the key here is your answers. at the moment, in your opinion, what pace has russia taken now? the federation is talking about the

formation of combat-capable groups in the number of 60-70 btg in the north, we understand that some of them may now be located on the territory of belarus, part of the neighboring regions of the russian federation, and we are already seeing preparations for the formation. how long can they put together this deadly puzzle. well, what we see is that the troops of the russian federation are really preparing in belarus . these mobilized regular troops are there, and they are preparing on training grounds in belarus. separately, the belarusians separately do not have any common training grounds where possible, some talked about the fact that you carry out some coordination together eh, purely separately, they just use eh, belarusian eh, belarusian resources in order to train their troops eh, regarding training i understand that you have on

attention to these com prize winners whom russia mobilized as a whole in order to later form some military groups, well , most of them will replenish the already existing groups, some have already been replenished on the territory of ukraine from the very beginning, they took troops and threw them, which are already accepting participation and some of them are really being prepared on various mountains and it is possible that new units will be created and it is impossible that they will be created with, i would like to say, with new tanks and with new equipment, but not old er-er other equipment that will and will er-er use them for any further military operations that will be determined, it will be a new offensive, it will be a defense, or the next one that general zaluzhnik talked about in his interview, we will see. i think that until the end, the russian federation has not made a decision about what they will do specifically, but we have

to consider all options, including the offensive on kyiv, as zaluzhny said. i don't think it's 100%, but to consider we have all their directions from where they will come from, where they can enter, including from belarus, and for this we are preparing our army for further action well, mr. roman, what we know for sure is that the russian federation has decided to use any available method to take bakhmut . weakens the enemy group. how do you see the situation with bakhmut in the near future? well, it's hard to say. you know, there are things that are decided exclusively on the battlefield. and that's it. you know who is more stable, who is stronger , who is better, who has a better weapon now.

concentrated a very large army there, and you rightly say that for them it is already a matter of honor to take bakhmut after the loss of kherson, after the loss of kharkiv oblast, not kherson , the entire right bank, after many retreats , after the loss of large cities. they think that this will cover them and they need to bring at least a short-term perspective and a victory, in addition to the fact that they need a victory over all of the donetsk luhansk admin borders, to leave the admin borders, they need now to achieve some such advantage, plus we know that what are you doing there, wagner, who is also trying to prove to putin that they can perform some tasks on their own, that's why, you know, such interests have been concentrated in bakhmut, and uh, political and military and uh, banditry, let's say that, all of them uh such spheres of influence of the russian federation, that is why it is really

difficult for our guys. but we are holding on, i hope that we will do everything in order not to surrender the city. mr. colonel, we would like to ask you about the situation on the zaporozhye front, a concept that is too broad. well but i think that you have an operational vision of what, for example, the enemy is preparing, and we can talk about some well-known trends on our side, well, the key word here is probably melitopol, so information is coming in that the enemy is concreting in every way and trying to create deeply echeloned lines of defense in the enemy understands that for us this is a key direction that may in fact decide to put an end to the further development of the general war against the russian federation. if we take melitopol, we will work on the corridor from berdyansk-melitopol there is a width there are 70 kilometers between them, as far as i remember, in order to secure our flanks

by going there, well, we will in fact cut the enemy group in two halves and if we talk about the uh half of the left bank of the kherson region, then in fact it may end up in the situation that existed before the right bank of the kherson region, from which we knocked out the enemy, which actually depended on two supply lanes, that is, from the novokakhov dam and the antoniv bridge, if we go to melitopol, then the supply of this group will depend exclusively without crimea, well, on crimea and to which we will, well, we are now finishing let 's try hard for it, but we will have more control and there will be a plus to crimea. one branch along the fence is the kerch bridge, which, as we have seen, is not such a monumental dispute sometimes it explodes and it won’t be like that, it’s a very serious logistics branch, it will be a

branch that will depend on a lot of factors , including the nation, when once we have destroyed it, we will actually turn crimea into an island that will be needed only deliver resources, the sea, the sea is also very difficult . if we go to melitopol once again, the issue of the left bank of the kherson region will be solved just there for a while. they are building defenses there and doing it so that the ukrainian armed forces do not advance further. well, plus we have energodar there, our largest in europe. and it is a strategic station. in general, the region where we need to work and the military russians have now chosen donetsk region is extremely political, because even if they are an infusor point, of course i believe that this will not happen, but if they were to push luhansk

region into the administrative borders of donetsk, well, from a military point of view , it will not give them any advantages, but zaporizhia region, kherson region is already here. let's continue to develop the south, the dnipro is ours and there is what to say, where to turn from a military point of view, that's why we see that the military structure of the russian federation is now occupied by politics more than real, adequate military affairs. we agree with you, they need some external victories in quotation marks that we could not sell to our population, so we agree. well , finally, i would still like to clarify something in the direction of strongly taurian, we will say , so we will be talking about the crimean peninsula . romano, you have already noted that purely if looking at the map with the corresponding e-e radius, we understand that we have weapons in order to possibly control the northern part of the e-e

crimean peninsula. at the same time, there is also various information regarding the day of the kerch bridge's ability to overturn more or less er-er some really heavy machines or capacities, er, it seems they can't organize it now and are very dependent on the ferry crossing, which today, for example, also doesn't work because it storms or remains. it's somehow more for them now - a less conscious supply artery to the crimea or in the direction of kherson and zaporizhzhia, they use what they have managed to accumulate there over the years and no longer tighten up, well, first of all, they also use what they have accumulated there in relation to of a full-scale invasion, they really gathered a large number, including weapons, but they had already taken out a large number and it was also destroyed on the side of kakhovka and novaya kakhovka, and this is where you have the problem, this is what i

said, if we cut through melitopol, they will have a very difficult time they are trying to somehow balance it with supplies through the eastern borders with the russian federation, but there are also opportunities to supply from crimea in the long term, this will not work because since winter is ahead and ferry crossings cannot always work, the crimean bridge is in question, according to some experts, it can be fully operational somewhere at the end of the 23rd year, so we are on the right track, we need to continue like this, and i think that these plans that we will be told
