and the number of our residents report that from friday to saturday, a lot of new kadyrivs who have come to the city of melitopol are coming. they mostly come in cars, russian tigers with already installed machine guns, which is a rarity for our city and such in this way, today they are also trying to inflict additional terror on the territory of the temporarily occupied city, and we also see the increase of the russian military directly in the hospitals of the city of melitopol, and this cannot help but please us because they are mostly coming there for three more 200 of them have already been carried out, and we saw this trend over the weekend and are already observing it today, but when i started, i said that the terrorist civilian population was passive because of this, for example, today in one of the roads of the city of melitopol, the morning began with a provocation to clear it

, as if they found some kind of they found a package with a white substance there and said that it was explosives planted by saboteurs, but this is definitely not true, because every weekend they unloaded some kits there and, as usual, under cover our children were placed in the basements of this school, so that the terror intensifies due to the fact that today the city is so closed and it is simply impossible to leave, both to leave and to go around to it, for example, several of our residents tried to leave the temporarily occupied melitopol over the weekend, but all completely turned everyone around and said that by january 1, no person will be able to leave, with the fact that 10 of our residents went to the occupied zaporizhzhia region in the direction of zaporizhzhia. territory, but also in vasilivka, 10 cars were turned around, but they said that until january 15th they would not come here and they would definitely not

be allowed to pass, so they are making such a fortress that they are going to hold until the end, but we saw how they did it with kherson until the end, so we hope it will be the same with our temporarily occupied melitopol. ivan, you said that in melitopol , manpower is coming from which directions, mostly it is coming today from the temporarily occupied crimea, but where it comes from is difficult to say what kind of red army it is, for the most part it is mobilized and today our residents see such an increase in the movement of mobs towards the city of melitopol from the city of melitopol towards the line of combat in the zaporizhia direction directly and so we see the second category that we see increasing is the people of kadyrov and these are ossetians who mostly come to the temporarily occupied town of melitopol. the mayor would like to ask you about the heavy equipment that the enemy may or may not charge

in the vicinity of melitopol, we understand. that is, well installing dragon's teeth in the middle of the city is, so to speak, a demonstration of certain intentions, but it is zero in general, taking into account how a military operation can take place, when they could get into the pincers, but heavy technology is important, as far as military equipment is concerned, that is, it looks like this , it constantly migrates in this way, the shifters are trying to create a picture as if it is too much, it really is a lot, it is 1,000 units, but in order to also create pressure on the civilian population, and they think that such in such a way they will be able to confuse our special services of the military, the equipment is constantly migrating , at first it stood on the coast of the sea of ​​azov, then on the coast of the estuary, then it moved to the next settlement, today there are really many of them, they do not go anywhere, but today, which is extremely important, thanks to the help of the civilian resistance, our the special services and our

military know about all the locations of this military equipment and that is why there is a bit of a panic in the shifts and they have already stopped gathering in the city center, they have stopped to gather in places where they used to be, because you and i remember how a week ago they gathered to celebrate the ballet dancer's birthday on the 10th of december . you went to kobzon to celebrate with a much larger force, so it is, ivan what about the logistics of the enemy? in general, we can already draw certain conclusions. the destruction of the bridge between melitopol and kostiantynivka had an effect. there are not many roads to it for the evacuation of equipment. node of the south of ukraine this is how the historical iron road and the main wind node of state importance developed and passed along our

city and today, if we talk about the glorious land border that expands , they often say that they will definitely not retreat. this land corridor was provided the most there are five roads, one of them is destroyed and military equipment will not be able to pass there, there is another one, it is a little more south of the city of melitopol, there is a third one , a little more north of melitopol, but there is no such a powerful bridge, as we can see in this video, as you are now showing, so it is true that mrs. kovarashist sneaked in, and it will be difficult for them to escape now, and it is possible to share some information, if of course, you have it in the city of tokmak, again, it is logistically interesting for the occupiers, the city and a large concentration of both manpower and e-e ammunition are there and the city of tokmak, today we often see in the operational reports of our general staff that

russian units and russian groups are being destroyed there, and so on. unfortunately, the city is also suffering today tokmak, as well as the city of melitopol, due to the fact that the highway was completely closed, they made a kind of reservation today to enter and leave tokmak. it is almost impossible to do all this clearing because the population there also opposes and fully informs about everything that uh i would like to be informed, and that is why today in the territory of the city of tokmak, for the most part, roaches also migrate or settle down. however, they are still there, their two tails are there. were returning there thank you, mr. ivan and ivan fedorov, mayor of melitopol we are going further 15 hours 35 minutes we are now adding to our marathon mykhailo gonchar , one of the leading specialists in energy issues and the president of the center for global studies

, strategy of the 21st so far, a couple worth your attention reports in kyiv continue to find the wreckage of the drones that attacked the capital today and also in the press service of the patrol police of kyiv reports that a resident of the capital noticed objects similar to engine parts of an enemy aircraft on the roadside among the trees uav man called called 102 inspectors arrived on the scene and called explosives and investigators police remind that in case of detection of objects similar to fragments of missiles or uavs do not need their own hands it is forbidden to move objects and disassemble them as well as take photos and publish pictures on the network well, the situation in the power system, it is difficult in the city of the regions, in an emergency, the shutdown is reported by ukraine, we are quoting energy. at the moment, the most difficult situation is in the central eastern and dnipro regions, schedules have been introduced

of emergency shutdowns in sumy, kharkiv, poltava, dnipropetrovsk, zaporizhzhia , kirovograd, zhytomyr, chernihiv , cherkasy, kyiv regions and in the city of kyiv priority are lost objects of critical infrastructure, restoration of energy supply to household consumers may take a long time, despite all the damage to the energy sector, the situation is under control in the power system , a stable frequency of 50 hz is maintained, we will work synchronously with the european continental network and the first messages from the summit of the member states of the united states were sent expeditionary force is taking place in latvia , the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyi has already spoken there, who called on the event to provide more weapons, and the prime minister of great britain, rishi sunak, said that the alliance should provide more military aid to ukraine, including additional air defense systems, artillery, armored vehicles, we must be clearly aware that any unilateral call for a ceasefire by russia is

absolutely ridiculous in the current context i think it would be a false call he would used by russia to regroup in order to strengthen its troops, and until they leave the occupied territory, there cannot and should not be any real negotiations - either he or the president of ukraine volodymyr zelenskyy said, because in fact the message is very similar . clear statistics about last night appeared, on the night of december 18-19, the russian occupation forces attacked ukraine with iranian-made kamikaze drones shahed 136-131 , the air force command of the united states of america reported that about 35 barrage munitions were found which last time in this air defense system launched from the east were launched from the eastern coast of the sea of ​​azov destroyed 30 shahed russian occupiers statistics are extremely high for the

destruction of air targets units of anti-aircraft missile troops fighter aviation mobile fire groups were involved for which we are sincerely grateful to our fighters and more one important such worldview i would say despite new threats from the russian federation and regular missile attacks on ukraine secretary of the national security and defense council oleksiy danilov e-e in the background he gives all this in an interview with ukrainian pravda, where he notes that putin looks like a driven rat , his life has become a complete horror and the chances of winning in russia are zero, this is a worldview war . the minister of great britain urged to ignore russia's calls for a cease-fire until the withdrawal of troops. therefore, the thing in sumy appealed to the leaders of the member countries of the

joint expeditionary forces in latvia, where the president of ukraine, volodymyr zelensky , called on the event to provide more weapons to sumy. stated that the alliance should provide more military aid to ukraine, including additional air defense systems, artillery and armored vehicles, we must be clearly aware, i am quoting now the prime minister of great britain, that any unilateral call for a cease-fire from russia is absolutely meaningless in the current context, i think that it would be a false call it would be used by russia to regroup to strengthen its troops and until they leave the occupied territory there cannot and should be no real negotiations, instead, according to the british prime minister, the alliance should continue to focus on the reduced ability of russia to regroup and replenish supplies. well, we would just like to redirect to the british prime minister, so to speak, this is the father of our commander-in-chief, so

remember the interview of the industrious well and accordingly , we need armored personnel carriers, tanks, this is a key story, the former prime minister of great britain, the fighter johnson, well, not only, but the current ones, as they say, live, look for opportunities to further promote the development of ukrainian agricultural sector ugu plans to work on the creation of a fund to support agriculture . he stated this during an online meeting of the public association all-ukrainian agrarian council with andrii degun. the parties discussed the current situation in the ukrainian agricultural sector, the deepening of the global food crisis, and a possible option for cooperation, in particular, the creation of an international fund to support ukrainian agrarians johnson's agrarian langling is waiting for us so beautifully well mykhailo gonchar yes the president of the center for global studies strategy 21 who had to analyze the situation in the energy sector , yes, unfortunately, he will not join us

due to problems with the energy sector, yes, but now we will analyze an equally important direction, in particular, it is about the enemy's regrouping of forces, yes, and, accordingly, new equipment valery ryabykh, military expert , editor of the defense express publication, with us on the link glory to the heroes i congratulate you i congratulate everyone in google the question did confirm that within the framework of military support ukraine was sent high-precision missiles to rimstone 2 the talk is increasingly about what ukraine will receive weapons that can quite easily be transformed from well, let's say, that 's right, to completely accurate things like these, the russian federation, nevertheless, due to a certain projectile or missile famine, which some experts say, even ukrainian officials are forced to resort to a

completely different practice inaccurate, poorly controlled shells, and so on. here we actually differ with them on two completely different strategies. valerii. please tell me why ours is better. after all, it is not a confrontation between the masses of people or the masses of technology, this confrontation is characterized by technologies, who has the best technologies, who is at the top , and in particular, the announcement by our partners about the supply of high-precision systems for example, the same great britain , well, at the moment, the ministry of defense of that country has officially confirmed that it will be supplied with edge-to-edge missiles in the second version

. were made public by the ministry of defense of great britain, however, for now, it was confirmed by the statement of the ministry. and what is the advantage of this missile? it is one of the most modern missiles of a similar class, which allows the destruction of important objects on the ground and can be used both from the air. well, as an air-to-ground missile as well as from the ground, and accordingly compared to the previous generation missiles, the brigston 2 missile has twice the radius of action. for example, if it is used from an airplane, it can reach

a distance of 60 km at this distance to destroy point target, the targets that are necessary, in addition, this missile has a double guidance system and, in addition to the usual radar head, it can have active laser guidance, and it can be used as an e-e piloted aircraft in such as our e fighters or airplanes let's say so a lot of functional purpose and also with unmanned aerial vehicles of shock action by the way, just before when the transfer of drones to ukraine was discussed there one of the problems was that the allegedly secret cheopar missiles could not

these missiles could be used, as brimston stated then, and the representatives of the ministry of defense of great britain could be deployed in order to use them precisely from american planes, uh, precisely from strike drones in it, because there was also a conversation about them recently. yes, mr. valery, on the other hand we understand that the enemy is trying to use all the resources available to him, in particular armored vehicles, and now, unfortunately, they are having some success, said the former commander of the ground forces of the republic of poland on the air of the tv channel espresso, general shybchak said that new t-90 tanks are appearing at the front in large numbers. in my opinion, these are not factory products, since the russians are unable to make

tanks in such a short period in the appropriate amount. in my opinion, re-exports are likely to those who previously bought the russians now sell them tanks and make money in russia, yes, they have a built repair network, they repaired tanks in belarus too, and this technique will all get to the fronts, we understand that now russia is also trying to form the so-called the northern group is approximately 60-70 btg, that is, we do not know the terms, but in any case, the t-90 in a fairly large number is quite stressful for us. what do you think is happening with russian armored vehicles? the thing is, what about the attempts of the russian federation to buy on the international market , we have already heard about armored vehicles for a long time. since

april, may of this year, just when the problem with the destruction of russian vehicles arose very acutely for them, this is the period when all the most modern vehicles were destroyed the equipment that the army of the aggressor country had. and even then the russian mysars went all over the world in order to buy armored vehicles, and later we saw it with the same shells and we see that some success is possible for them. it is possible to achieve, well, in particular , if you lean on mr. fiddler, it is possible to assume that a similar version of the appearance of armored vehicles in the russian federation is possible, and, well, but to say

that, for example, in this way, it is possible to arm about 670 new battalions of tactical groups , we are not talking about this, because well not many similar tanks were released and we know that in the case of the russian federation there were also about 2100 units and they were distributed around the world in not a very large amount, so we cannot talk about any drastic reinforcements with such tanks, however eh, practice shows that these are one of our more modern russian tanks, as they claim, and they also eh burn as skillfully as t-72 t-72b3 tanks and other armored vehicles of the russian federation, and in fact, of course well uh

with the appearance of er, the question of destroying such a large number of armored vehicles will stress the situation equally, there is nowhere to go , and if these er tanks appear again in ukraine, then they will also burn er with the help of more modern anti-tank means that er i hope to supply only our partners and in sufficient quantities, mr. valery, on the other hand, we understand how critical we need powerful armored vehicles , we are talking about heavy armored vehicles, the same tanks the direct participants of the organizers of the battles and our defense, respectively, it gives the impression

that we are playing. improving the climate, supplying us with heavy armored vehicles, because the missile is very good, and so on, we understand that for the implementation of adequate counteroffensive actions, in particular, in the very south of our country we need heavy armor, of course. and this is exactly what the country has repeatedly signaled to our partners, and from the last one, of course, we saw the numbers of heavy armored vehicles that we need in order to develop offensives, that's exactly what valery zaluzhnyi gave in a comment to the western edition and essentially affairs we can say that er. recently, we see the roots of evil er among our

partners regarding the provision of aid, and this was helped by precisely these terrorist attacks carried out by the aggressor country attacks on peaceful cities that have signs of genocide. today we witnessed another such attack, the essence of the matter is that we have already heard statements from the main leaders of the main countries of our partners that ukraine should be given everything it needs as a certain testimony if i calculated this , so let's say the statements were made at the beginning of december, if we calculate the time of the transfer cycle of such equipment and preparation, then it is possible to say that it is not excluded and that in the next two or three months, similar heavy

equipment may appear on the territory of ukraine and it will be very appropriate if it appears as a complex, because modern western tanks are not just a combat vehicle that has a gun and the ability to shoot and drive, it is also a complex of weapons that is connected to the general combat control system and is a unit how reconnaissance and strike combat, which exchange reconnaissance with old ones in real time, and i hope that such equipment will appear by itself, complete with all the necessary equipment that would ensure their most effective use, because i repeat once again that a confrontation in the modern world, they won't win it with the number of mobilized or, er, the number of infantry, this is precisely the war of technologies and

the war of efficiency in their application p valeriu, well, another shahidna attack, which we already had time to talk about. the last time when the russians did something similar, it was literally the next day missile attack already. well, isn’t it obvious that this is an attempt to try to find out exactly where and how our air defense systems stand, those that we have as of now, at least how fruitful do you think this enemy tactic is? can we talk about the fact that our uh our our air defense forces are deceiving the enemy well look last week we also saw a shekhlet attack and in fact our soldiers were able to uh shoot down 25 uh well shaheds it was on wednesday already on friday we saw a large-scale missile attack during which our soldiers shot down 78% of these missiles,

including 61 cruise missiles, and currently, unfortunately, today our country was also attacked , and in fact, the enemy is certainly trying to use possible tactics in order to increase efficiency yes he is launches these martyrs at night to reduce the effectiveness of anti-aircraft defense because part of the means used to fight these targets is, well, there is no possibility or not very much for action at night, in particular, these are the same machine gun installations with ordinary collimator and anti-aircraft sights and that's why the enemy also uses the tactics of constantly changing the flight path, but it must be

said that the enemy, as it was stated in british intelligence, already has certain reservations and does not launch these martyrs from the crimea because he feels that on the territory of crimea, they can already be affected by the means that are available to ukraine, and therefore he moved the launch pads of these frankly terrorist products to the territory of the krasnodar territory, therefore, the power here is just the coast of the sea of ​​azov, well, this is what our air force command says and e of course, of course, we won't be surprised if cotton came there today or tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, and what about what says that the most effective tactic in the fight against this firewood is destruction precisely in the places where they are launched exactly the same as with e-e missiles launched by the terrorist state and in fact the matter is and i think

that after the previous attacks the partners already understood this and understood that in ukraine we need the means to destroy these terrorist means used by the russian federation e.g. it is necessary to obtain means of destruction that operate at a distance of up to 2,000 km eh, we will expect cotton and eh, how i hope that our expectations will be crowned by the success of the armed forces in effective destruction precisely in the places where they are based. well, who about what and i'm talking about tanks. so, germany declared that it did not supply ukraine with a bmp-marder, a german company repaired 16b for ukraine, but still cannot get a license to

send them. warehouses of the bundeswehr to ukraine or other countries were not carried out, but you see, the german company rain metal repaired 16bmp marder for ukraine, but still cannot get a license to send them, that is let's not be too optimistic about situations, it's quite strange mr. valery, this is the brightest story, well, the story has been going on for a long time, and it must be said that the company rain metal, which feels, let's say, its responsibility, for those processes that are taking place and its desire to help ukraine, it stated about the readiness to hand over i bmp-marder and the same leopard tanks, one in the amount of 78 units, which it has in storage as early as april, yes, certain

political processes in germany prevented this, and in fact we still see the matter an echo of this kind of struggle between necessity and some kind of political caution, however, recently we see signs that, nevertheless, the leadership of germany increasingly understands the need for comprehensive assistance, including the provision of heavy weapons , and so far we have just heard about the transfer of leopard 2 tanks as well. and as for the marder bmp - of course, heavy equipment is effective , but it is an order of magnitude lower . to appear in ukraine
