competent, most informed experts, eyewitnesses and, of course, the participants of the relevant processes 2:17 p.m. espresso let's start the important news with the fact that president zelenskyy today held a meeting of the stake, discussed the improvement of air defense, the restoration power system and support of the armed forces in the hottest areas of the front, i quote, the participants of the meeting emphasized the provision of force defense units in the hottest areas with weapons and other means , the issue of improving the air defense of ukraine, in particular for the protection of critical infrastructure facilities, was also considered of the energy system after some long ago missile strikes of the russian federation, e-e about the hottest areas of the front, now we will

to speak with serhiy the bellicose spokesman of the eastern group of our troops. glory to ukraine, mr. spokesman, i congratulate you. glory to the heroes. congratulations, when we talk about the hottest areas of the front, we understand, well, more precisely. i immediately associate it with bachmut, with flint and in general, fierce battles in donbas. i would like to ask you now to share the operational about the situation in this direction, you are absolutely right, bakhmut is now eh and the epicenter with the symbol of our struggle and our independence, a symbol of the inability, on the contrary , for the enemy to break the ukrainian spirit, so eh during this day, there were 249 shellings on the bakhmut section of the front 32 because i lost 131 people killed and

more than 150 wounded in the collision of the enemy. so, i also lost two depots of field ammunition of my volume, so this is now one of the hottest points where the most more aggressive actions of the enemy, and where our soldiers, showing daily courage, coordination , and support, do not allow the patient to break through, and therefore move on, it is better to buy our lands. direction yes, we understand that they charge there regularly additional manpower, but very often it is not completely clear whether it is freshly mobilized, whether it is wagner's new groups, whether it is the shoikh system of a new private military company, in fact, you absolutely listed almost all of the measures that they

take because the dynamics of large losses forces them to constantly renew their forces, if it is about the same wagner, then they are trying to constantly replenish with these former prisoners, although they already have a problem in this direction, because this is the so-called word-of-mouth radio, you know from former prisoners since the time of the russian empire of the ussr, they have it very well established and news has already arrived in their prisons that this is a one-way ticket and there is already such feedback that it is not very good, they want to go there too these are mobilized from other units, these are mechanized unit tank units. well, as a rule, the airborne units are already seriously equipped with mechanized units, and so it was placed in the direction when the attack in the stepovoye region already another

private company, um, uh, patriot, which is more combines it, combines it with the minister of defense, that he, and i, i heard information about, so to speak, a private company from tshegiv, well, let's see how they will manifest themselves on the battlefield from the other side, mr. spokesman, we understand that the situation in the lyman yakut direction is not easy because the enemy is trying, so to speak, in quotation marks, of course, to improve his tactical position there as well. what is happening there, well, from time to time he tried there and before now, er, to try to conduct counter-offensive actions there in the stelmakh area, which red poplars of some other directions, about that he always found himself. at first, you were the main fire of our jet systems and artillery mortars for the needs of tanks and uh, and it

was necessary that he was pushed back by counterattacks and, in principle, having suffered great losses, as in other directions, he retreated , in particular on this person for this day in this limansk let's say luhansk direction he lost 119 people killed 150 wounded lost three bmp tanks e-e salvo fire system hail and even two drones well and accordingly now i would like you in general analyzed the situation with i don't know the operational situation in donbas. we remember very well how at one time the war criminal putin cut the task, so to speak , that is, he regularly changed the date by which our ukrainian donbas should have been captured. well, but in any case, it appeared and the date is january 1. well, maybe that is why the enemy is

losing his men, his equipment, but still trying to advance . the enemy is trying to fill new new manpower by concentrating on several e-e sections, that is, not conducting a large strategic offensive operation, but trying there in the direction, primarily now in the direction of bakhmut, sometimes counter-attacking minor actions that we talked about in the lyman direction e-e and also in the direction of avdiiv direction, he is trying to break through, find a weak spot in our defense , break through so that, depending on operational luck, or some local success, or whatever they think of their sweet dreams there cover our group or break through the system of our defense, enter the operational

space and try to move there with rapid strikes in the direction of slavic kramatorsk e-e and seize our land, however, all these actions are read by our command and e-e, as a rule , e-e are worked out in advance countermeasures in the directions where they operate, er, all areas of the terrain from where they usually conduct their offensive actions are shot at, and our soldiers , as we have already said, combined with training and courage in relation to the beard, give them this to carry out the difficulties adds to the fact that these daily mass attacks exhaust the personnel . plus, the weather conditions now are difficult visibility and the actions of groups by small groups of the enemy force us to be more focused . the courage of heroism is accompanied by incredible

vigilance, and you know who knows how clever it is possible to not lose attention and constantly see the enemy, strike him first and not let him break through a position somewhere so that he could not damage our defense system. dear mr. spokesman, you absolutely rightly mentioned the weather conditions, so the temperature in our country is rising, we understand that no one will carry out any particularly special offensive actions, well, rather, except for the infantry, but on the other hand, we understand that, well , this brings us back to the situation of autumn and accordingly , in your opinion, how do you see the further deployment now, so to speak , in the near future, in particular, until the middle of january ? well, we seem to have the greatest weight here, you spoke a lot about it on the air and now

you know, eminent experts such as kirilyog-budanov also said that the course of military operations will be influenced much more than the weather conditions, is that what kind of equipment our partners will supply us, because we have shown that we are launching it very quickly in action , we integrate it with the weapons systems that we have, and we know how to use them both standard and non-standard, and i believe that a-a training, motivation and armament with the latest models of equipment will defeat any saturation mass mass saturation with personnel that wouldn't have been mobilization of the russian federation, and we have already shown this more than once, because all our victories, as a rule, were won without a systematic

advantage in the personnel and equipment of the occupier, and for the most part they were won precisely by our non-standard combat ingenuity and the very high-quality use of soviet and western models the armament of the combined depends on the need , i agree with you, mr. westpoint spokesperson, they would call it a miracle, but we know at what cost it is a miracle, and on the other hand, how high is the level of operational and at the tactical level, our commanders of these or other units that realize this miracle, on the other hand, i would like to give a few statistics now, the enemy is really a beast, in particular, is it regularly shelling populated areas. for example, in the direction of bakhmut, they fired at 20 populated areas, the disputed birch belygorivka, soledarmahmutsky, pidgorodne, bakhmut, zalizne new -york, klishchivka, kurdyumivka, donetsk

region. this is how the attack uavs were used in the districts of kurdyumivka, majorsk and zalizny, in the avdiyiv direction, the enemy inflicted fire the defeat near avdiyivka of veselo krasnohorivka, maryinka, novomykh and novomykhalivka, donetsk region, mr. serhiy, is this something new? is this a daily statistic, or is the enemy trying? finally, i do not know how to complete my tactics of ethnic cleansing, so that the civilian population simply flees from those settlements. i started this conversation with you when i said that there were 249 shellings only in the direction of bakhmut and plus or minus in the area of ​​two hundred e-e shellings, this one on the avdiiv shade of the front and on the limansk luhansk let's say uh, that is, they already know their own, and you know the satanic nature of hatred, well , they don't hide their intention to destroy us, if you watch the tv

footage of their so-called warlords, you know , dude, the caste of these jackals, those jackals of war, they are yes they show with such joy the bombed-out kostiantynivka, uh, or kramatorsk, they are peaceful there, you can see that these are peaceful objects well, of course, over time they can write that it's like there, what was behind it, although it's clear from the photo video that it's just peaceful objects objects or infrastructure or houses and they just fly to kramatorsk or fly to krutinsk. i mean, what do you mean, they gave their ideologies, their narratives, their propaganda, that you are oppressed by the ukrainians, donbas, they are going to liberate here, they are destroying without it, without any empathy there, uh, and that is also in they have no cognitive dissonance, so these are not people, they are absolutely people
