and we need them, it turned out to be the initiative of maksym adamenko, the person who organized the production of tactical binoculars for our soldiers, a tourism expert, a volunteer of transcarpathia , worked now with khrystyna yatskiv, we start and continue to continue to defend sativa war with the russian federation. for this, it is not necessary to be ukrainian, but simply to be human, you can summarize our today's broadcast by antin berkovskiy naiatskiv well, then we have the verdict with serhiy don't switch with rudenko. glory to ukraine, this is a verdict program. my name is serhiy rudenko

. good day and good health to everyone. today , january 3, is the 314th day of the heroic resistance of the ukrainian people to the russian invaders. two commanders of the russian federation, meanwhile , british intelligence believes that the peak of the russian attack on bakhmut has already passed, the russian army continues to lose manpower and equipment in ukraine as of the morning of the third on january 1, russia has already lost 108,190 people in ukraine in the last day alone, the armed forces of ukraine have destroyed 750 orks since the beginning of the great war, the russians have already lost in ukraine 336 tanks, 6,100 armored fighting vehicles, 2,033 artillery systems, 4, four rocket launcher systems, 214

air defense systems, 283 aircraft, 270 helicopters 4735 units of motor vehicles 16 ships boats 723 cruise missiles 1839 drones 181 units of special equipment the enemy caused the greatest losses in the bakhmut and liman directions 2500 russians from the armed forces of the ukrainian armed forces, cotton under the christmas tree in crimea and prigozhin's panic, we will talk about this and other things for the next hour, we will be in touch with us, colonel of the armed forces of ukraine, military expert vladyslav seleznyov, mr. colonel, good day, good health to you, glad to see you in our program glory to ukraine glory to the heroes so president volodymyr zelensky warned that russia is preparing a long-term attack by drones in order to exhaust the air defense of the armed forces of ukraine in just two

days of the new year, the defense forces shot down more than 80 drones martyred, let's hear and see what president zelensky said. i wish you good health, dear ukrainians, only two days have passed since the beginning of the year, the number of downed iranian drones over ukraine is already more than 8, and in the near future this number may increase, because these weeks the nights can be peaceful, we have information that russia is planning a long-term attack. also, with akhedam and bets, it may be to the exhaustion of our people, our father, our energy, but we have to do and we will do everything we promise, the terrorists' goal failed like all the others, and the spokesman of the air force yuriy ignat says that in two days the air defense of ukraine shot down all 100% of the launched drones

, e.e. shahid, and this is a record result. continue to claim that these drones, or let's say kamikaze drones, hit objects that in one way or another are related to the military infrastructure, is this true? i mean their statement and whether it is possible or not can the military infrastructure in the case of damage to critical infrastructure, in particular , power substations and thermal power plants, work autonomously in ukraine to what extent what the occupiers say is true. the fact is that we, the occupiers, are trying to legitimize our e-e attacks in some way, while

in fact missile and drone terror is taking place on the territory of our country, it is obvious that the occupiers are trying to target the objects of the critical energy structure of our country or some supposedly important military objects, but i am asking myself the question the arrival that took place in the hotel which is located near the national e-e palace of ukraine and the palace of ukraine, i.e. the same palace where new year and christmas trees are usually held for residents for small residents of kyiv about which in general a military object can be all about the lysenkov center e- of the capital of our country. of course, this is all a delusion. and what is the complaint trying to do? the same drone terror is one of the goals that the russian occupiers are currently pursuing, the president emphasizes volodymyr zelenskyy, this is an attempt to reduce as much as possible the level of combat capability of the ukrainian air and anti- missile defense system, because

we need to spend very expensive, very important for covering the skies of ukraine, the same missiles for all these kamikaze drones, it is obvious that the second drone terror will continue, the russians are in certain difficulties insufficient number of the same missiles, sea-air and land-based missiles that the russians usually used before, but now they are experiencing a shortage of the same missiles, for example , as for the missiles, the nominal basing of someone at the iskander complex, according to the approval of the minister of defense, mr. reznikov, it is considered that the russians have from 11 to 13% of the initial stocks of the same missiles left therefore, it is considered that each army should have at least 25 percent of the total stockpiles of this type, for example, a missile, but the

russians resort to such rather dangerous combat power of the russian army, continuing the same missile tarot, will the same missile tarot continue and it is also clear that it is, because the russian occupation army cannot do anything at the front, and this is the same missile terror, the only lever of influence on the mood of russian citizens, because well, at least in five in this way the russian army is trying to put pressure, including on the top military-political leadership of ukraine, and in this way they are trying to force volodymyr zelenskyi and his entourage to go on the track of diplomatic negotiations, but obviously this is not a negotiation, it should be acceptance of ultimatum demands from the kremlin , will the military-political leadership of our country and the ukrainian people go above this? no, it means the war will continue, and here we literally need three key blocks of our western partners, first of all, to work

on the prevention case of the implementation of the plan that until recently was adopted between the kremlin and moscow and tehran regarding the supply of ballistic missiles to the islamic republic of iran industry, it is about mines about rockets 110 and zulfagar missiles, and accordingly it is about that the ukrainian e-e diplomat should work on the track of strengthening the e-e system of air and anti-missile defense by obtaining the same e-e installations of complex systems from our western partners. well, of course , it was not bad to work on a very important , very effective case, this is the case of the destruction of e- e launch sites of the same e launch batteries of the russian occupiers from where they launch across the territory of our country from time to time we hear reports of incidents occurring at military bases on of the territory of the russian federation, in particular , we are talking about the sarapisk bryansk region.

of course, this is good news, but not enough. we still need to interfere with the russian aviation even more, because it is obvious that, in this way, we will significantly reduce the combat potential of the russian occupation forces, which with the help of missile terror destroys key and destroys lives to the peaceful inhabitants of our country, our energy infrastructure is being destroyed, mr. colonel. over the past six months, we have seen that war , modern war, is already turning into a war of drones , because drones play a very important role during the last six months, we see that russia is actively using drones that were produced in iran, which they bought a batch of, we see that our drones are also flying to the territory of the russian federation, or we can say that in the 23rd year, as the same person claims, then

it will be a war of drones because the russian army emphasizes that more drones, we need drones as much as possible, how is the current modern war different from the wars that were there 10 or 20 years ago, to a certain extent we have to understand that the unmanned platforms independent aviation nominal or sea-based are now starting to play a more and more important role and it goes in this sense, it is not only about combat platforms of unmanned aerial vehicles , it is about sea drones and about ground drones, and it is about not only about dokamikaze, it is possible that attack drones and reconnaissance drones play a role, and i think that this is a component of the actions of the army that participates in the largest military operation and operation since the second world war that took place on the territory of the european continent. this is obvious

of course, the case of e-e work e-e is aimed at creating a powerful complex of the same drones of various types and purposes in ukraine, the region is important and not only the ukrainian defense and industrial complex should work here, private business should work here because it is obvious that many issues related to the identification of production depend directly on our national producers, i think that the understanding of these processes and the importance of these processes is at different levels of the ukrainian the authorities think that the end will somehow be realized, because we see how effective , how powerful, and how sensitive it is for the russian environment in general for the russian army . various

military facilities that are located several hundred kilometers from the territory of ukraine, and it is obvious that this a lowers the mishevsky potential of the russian army, er, it lowers the morale of russian soldiers, they were understand that there is no safe environment where they should have felt safe eh so, that's all, we have some certain problems with the connection with vladyslav seleznev, now we will try to restore this connection friends well , in the meantime, information appeared about that the security service of ukraine announced the first suspicions of shelling of civilian objects of ukraine against two high-ranking officials of the russian army, one of them is the commander of the long-range aviation of the air and space forces of the armed forces of the russian federation, colonel general serhii kobylash, and the other is a former commander by the black sea fleet of the russian federation admiral ihor osipov they were both

charged with suspicion under two articles of the criminal code, this is the second part of article 437 , planning, preparation for launching and waging an aggressive war, and the third part of article 110 of nato's encroachment on the territorial integrity and inviolability of ukraine. the maximum sanction of the articles provides for punishment in the form of life imprisonment, among other things, this serhii kobylash, who is not the one about whom the criminal case was initiated and the first one was announced literally yesterday, said that long-range aviation planes are ready to participate in the so-called special military operation, or simply put, in the russian-ukrainian war and over the last few days, it was known that aircraft from the murmansk region were flying towards the caspian sea or the caspian sea water area and from there, she launched attacks on the territory of the ukrainian state. vladyslav seleznyov is in touch with us again, please forgive me, we have such a

connection, it is not very certain, mr. colonel, i have already told you that two high-ranking officials of the sbu have announced the first suspicions of shelling of civilian objects, this is sergey kobelyash, he is now the commander of long-range aviation and the former commander of the black sea fleet of the russian federation, admiral igor osipov. what do you think about these suspicions that have now been exposed in ukraine, will they have an impact on the military command of the russian federation , or are they all, as they say, in that gang, the entrance is the ruble, the exit is 2. are russian soldiers, including high-ranking officials, confident that the russian federation will win in this duel with ukraine? i think they have serious doubts about this. reason, because unlike the russian propagandists, they know absolutely obvious

things about the state of combat capabilities of the russian army of occupation and the trends that are happening now, including at the front , and the validity will end for them . they are extremely important because this activity is emphasized very important casey any war crime there is no time for uh suspension of punishment in any case all war criminals will be brought to criminal the responsibility of someone is very visible in this criminal responsibility, he or she will be destroyed as part of other special operations. which is currently being committed by the russian occupying forces. and in time,

each of them will suffer punishment, and the fact that our history has repeatedly testified that today's local high-ranking officials and who considered themselves, well, supposedly not the inhabitants of heaven, but in the end, it is impossible to resort to a court of law, whether it is national or international. it is obvious that history knows many examples and it will be the same. this time, every russian war criminal will receive his time and what is happening now in the information space of the statement of the ukrainian security service e- e this is the same very important factor that thinks that its prospects will further influence the decision not to make decisions by which military officials of the occupying army, because the crime that is not punished begins to multiply and the punishment for a war crime must be inevitable, and this will be worked on not

only by the ukrainian law enforcement officers, but by other services that will have the honor and responsibility to implement this case , let's, colonel, look at what is happening under the bahmut and in the bahmut itself in the city, we know that for 10 10 months the russian federation is trying to take control of this city. british intelligence says that russia is unlikely to achieve a significant breakthrough under the bachmouth in the coming weeks. in the last 10 days, ukraine has allocated significant reinforcements to protect the sector are concluded by british intelligence and the frequency of russian attacks has decreased compared to the peak in mid-december both sides suffered heavy losses while the founders one of the leaders of the private military campaign wagner yevgeny prigozhin found an explanation why terrorists cannot take bakhmut let's hear it and the main question for everyone, yes, when

you take artemovsk, artemovsk is a fortress in every house. and therefore, for every house, the guys are never searched for one day . they took the house, they took the third house, they took what happened, baron, and i will tell you what it is, break through the defenses, break through the defenses. this morning , one house took a break through the baron . если сказать 500 верное ошибёт, as they say, in fear, the eyes are big well, it's about the same well, priozhen meant that each and every house is a fortress, if there are 500 houses, it means 500 lines of defense according to your e-e, why the russians, why the russians complain that they cannot take bakhmut well, of course, we owe it to the

armed forces of ukraine and we understand why it is a-and it is for the russian army, what does it mean for the russian army not to take bakhmut well, let's start with the fact that prigozhin is lying well, as always, but this is not news, but i explain why he is lying . the fact is that now all of bakhmut, including the industrial zone, is controlled by ukrainian forces. this happened about two weeks ago, when the last industrial areas of bakhmut were liberated. in the eastern phase of this section of the front, it is obvious that any other attempt by the russian occupiers , first of all, against the former command from the private military campaign, the novagner is exposed every time to the vulnerable korean artillery wagon and there is nothing the russians can do, they did not suffer losses, but it falls to several hundred meters to advance from the head of bakhmut,

they do not have such opportunities because of the absolutely will not yield position of the ukrainian defense forces, which have the appropriate resources, the reserves, and the e-e have the appropriate coordination by various units and divisions that provide security and defense bakhmut so it is obvious that the statements of the british development about the fact that in the coming days and weeks the russians will not forget any territorial gains on this part of the front they are right, why is bakhmut important to the russians, in fact it is not true he is important to the russians as the same beauty who is trying to prove to his patrolman putin whether the army slandered him and wagner's army is more effective and successful than the regular russian army. that is why he regretfully sends the same military personnel who are actually being slaughtered, trying to emphasize that even in the event of the capture of this settlement by the russian occupation army, they will not solve the issue of access to the administrative border of donetsk and luhansk regions over a serious and

powerful defense of the ukrainian army is on the eastern class of the russian-ukrainian frank. but nevertheless, the russians fight, fight , fight, not with skill, but with numbers, and they suffer insane losses, and in a certain way, this is a ukrainian symbol of defense, because it is bigger, the same reason why savages or mercenaries from the private military company bohdan, we will determine the easier and more effective the ukrainian cultural offensive will be in the future with the aim of liberating the territory of donetsk and luhansk regions from the russian occupiers. -th ukrainian defense forces struck makiivka professionally at the building of vocational technical school number 19, which housed several hundred of mobilized russian soldiers, yes, the truth is that the ministry of defense, if i'm not

mistaken, has confirmed such a mass death of people, i mean the ministry of defense of the russian federation, because they named the number 63 , i guess we still need to add something to make sure the number is accurate, but but for the first time they admitted the very fact that thanks to the impact of one blow or four blows , four rockets landed there, and a large number of people died, according to their data, because they constantly underestimate the number of those who died , according to our data, it is several hundred people and i will say that many people were killed in makiivka, there were several more strikes in the kherson region, there are also many dead and wounded, and considering the number of people they lose, and they lose quite thoughtlessly, i always ask our experts during these 10 months. one and the same question, where is the limit of the number of people,

how much do they have to lose in order for them to stop or for them to understand that this war does not add to them, on the contrary, it subtracts and takes away people, or for them is the loss of people absolutely are there any people, the loss of people is absolutely not, well , they can put any number here just to say that we won. the point is, mr. serhiu, that before the start of the full-scale staff war, many experts are of the opinion that for putin, unacceptable losses of russian soldiers will be numbers 10, a maximum of 12,000 people, we can see that now the marking of russian losses has exceeded the mark of 100,000 and is probably moving further to the mark of 200,000. there, just the other day, i heard information about what if the russians were doing well at such a rate to lose their officials and on emotions, e.e., from the wagner

pvc to the figure of 200,000 russia, where they run somewhere closer to the middle of the summer. it will be more accurate and true to say because in this way i am trying to spend the same time he hopes what why would some called er within the framework of partial mobilization and for which now and completing the stages of his hydration will become the same weapon victory precisely because er had a military the expert claims that the closest in the future, another massive attack by the russian occupiers rests is determined by approximately three directions: eastern , southern and northern, if we are talking about kyiv and the kyiv region, in my opinion, will the presence of a large number of personnel , poor support, poorly trained putin's problem is not a solution, because for

putin he himself is a problem. because he created the prerequisites for the introduction of the largest military operations on the european continent since the second world war, and he has already lost this war because there is no motivation makes no sense in this war for the russian occupying army. and the ukrainian word of defense is absolutely weighted, absolutely rationally, they act on the fact that the key task is to destroy the russian occupation before the army would clean our land from the russian invaders in the border of 1991, mr. colonel, what do they care about that they want to increase the size of the russian army in 2023 to one and a half million people literally since the new year they have increased this number and by another 150,000 people putin signed the decree because in august it was announced that this increase army, that is, they want

to increase the army by 500,000 people within a year or a half of the initially large-scale invasion of russia into ukraine. because when they entered the territory of the ukrainian state in full from february 24, then this army numbered 1 million people, we know that the soviet army had 5 million people, and that is, he wants to increase the number of the army in proportion to what the soviet union had. according to your russia, there will be enough money, and weapons, of course, to keep this huge, huge army of 1.5 million people, and won't it just be the beginning of the fact that the russian federation

will start spending a lot on the army and for everything else, she simply will not have enough money . the remark is absolutely correct. the fact is that it is not so difficult to collect one and a half million citizens of the russian federation to equip the army . specialists, specialists who will ensure the activities of that army, this is determined by military accounting specialties, the positions of junior commanders, commanders, this is also the logistics service, this is also the engineering technical service, that is, those specialists who need a rather long time to prepare for training moreover, if we look at the flight crew of the russian army, we know that a huge number of aircraft were destroyed, not only the aircraft, but the same pilots who flew these aircraft were killed.

we are looking at the same specialists again - they will take a sufficient number of the same equipment that met the requirements of the current high-tech war, remove from long-term storage equipment that was manufactured in the terry 60s and 70s of the last century, this is a matter of efficiency and high technology of such units which will be provided with such a technique is not mentioned here, so then he can dream about everything with this, everything, but it is obvious that his desires and er and aspirations in no way correspond to his capabilities and capabilities of the russian federation, and in the fact that he is wrong and from time to time or even with a certain regularity , the ukrainian defense force proves this thesis, because in addition to the one you mentioned in makiyivka, the cotton in the last three days has occurred at least twice in the territory of the kherson region with huge expenses in one case are about at least 500 destroyed and

parallel russian likes in another case. so far there is no confirmed information, but there is a russian lost there. well, again, a certain place of birth has developed there as well as cotton, which led to insane losses in the russian battle formations, i think that in the near future we will hear information from the ukrainian general staff about how many times it was destroyed, although, again, we look at the daily summary of the ukrainian general staff for the last few days , less than 700 people of russian fighters or people who were destroyed as a result of a firefight with ukrainian artillery, well, i have not seen such fewer numbers, that is, more than 2000 people destroyed during the first three days in 2023. well, and obviously, this figure must be multiplied by three more in order to get medical injuries there and those who were wounded. by the way, we have a small video from the samara region where those who

died in makiivka were brought, or at least, you see , people came and brought flowers to the monument and said that they are saddened by the fact that the occupiers were destroyed in makiivka, there are a lot of these people, judging by the fact that many people came. i think that these are relatives and friends, etc. accordingly, we can only imagine how many people there are under the rubble in makiivka after the attack. the ukrainians are left well, that's a different story, so to speak, mr. colonel, thank you for participating in the program. it was vladyslav seleznyov, a military expert, a colonel of the armed forces of ukraine. well, friends, i will remind you that we work live on the espresso tv channel and also on our social platforms on youtube and on facebook, for those who are currently watching us on youtube and facebook, please like our video
