was in the ballet swan lake by the russian composer tchaikovsky, some dancers refused to perform to his music, but valeria filled her performance with a new meaning. i express myself through dance, my feelings and the spirit of resistance . i can demonstrate my protest through dance, the fact that dance for all these ballerinas is no longer about performance is obvious now for each of them it is also a manifestation of defiance and that's all for today see you tomorrow at 21:00 take care i congratulate you this is freedom curse my name is vlasta lazur

the ice arena is located in the city of druzhkivka, donetsk region, it was destroyed. the ministry of defense of russia confirmed that it was the russian army that attacked druzhkivka, why did the leader of the private military campaign, wagner yevgeny prigozhin, publicly admit that he cannot capture bakhmut, what happened, what is the purpose of such a confession, and the central bank of russia offers to distribute subpoenas directly in russian banks and the security service of ukraine , meanwhile, announced the suspicion of the head of the russian smuggling bank lviv, iryna biolnyi, what are the chances that she will end up on the dock together with the war criminals, we will talk soon. the ministry of defense of russia officially confirmed that it was the russian army that struck the girlfriends in the donetsk region. they claim that they struck a cluster of military equipment near the railway station of the city and even reported the destruction of himers systems. on the evening of january 2,

the russian military launched two missile strikes at the girlfriends one rocket hit the center of the city, another hit the village of yakovlivka. as a result, the altair ice arena was destroyed. the arena was the home ground of the donbas hockey club, a video of the ice arena destroyed by a russian strike, you are in druzhkivka, you are now seeing on the screen altair altair until recently was a popular place of rest for the residents of the region, and recently it served as a humanitarian depot due to a russian missile attack on druzhkivka, a person died, the deputy head reported this just recently office of president kyrylo tymoshenko another russian missile attack in the donetsk region the night before was broadcast live on french television, the strike was carried out in the very moment when correspondent polgas was reporting from the kramatorsk district

, it is reported that the journalist himself was not injured as a result of this attack. well, just now, radio liberty correspondent serhiy horbatenko is in donetsk region. he joins our broadcast. my greetings to serhii. what is happening in the region, in particular, in the aforementioned kramatorsk and drushkivtsi after the missile attack. i congratulate you today. russian troops did not stop shelling this area. at least they launched a missile attack on kramatorsk around noon. and the chief of the military administration of kramatorsk, goncharenko reported that there was one wounded in this attack, and later he reported that the russian troops shelled kramatorsk just when the energy workers were working to restore

the energy supply, so i can assume that it was the energy worker who was wounded, as for yesterday, the russians well , almost at the same time, for several hours, the troops also shelled kramatorsk with friendly fire. unfortunately, during the shelling of this ice arena and the railway area, one peaceful man was injured and also yesterday the police reported that seysky died during the shelling of kramatorsk at the checkpoint, he was only 24 years old. i also want to note that anti-russian flag activists started writing on social networks yesterday that the base was allegedly destroyed in the people's arena of the ukrainian troops, it is not true, i was there today, and i was indeed informed that there was a humanitarian warehouse there, i saw with my own eyes that there was a large amount of drinking water in bottles , a large number of mattresses, and with me from there

they evacuated the small towns and generators, and i suggest you listen to what the residents of druzhkivka actually said about this shelling. this is just a dictionary . what will happen and we will very much hope that our children will be even more sudovlstiem goes on this time and for now there is silence in kramatorsk druzkivka, but the night is ahead and it is difficult to predict what will actually happen next and thank you very much i just i would like to add that the russian ministry of defense reported that not only was the headquarters of the ukrainian military in russia at the stadium, in russia they even

reported that they allegedly took aim there in heimers , that was the official version of the russian ministry of defense. altair arena, it was the home stadium for the donbas hockey club well, now this arena is destroyed, let's talk about what kind of place it is and why it became the target of the russian army, an ex-captain joins our broadcast of the donbas hockey club count - player of the legion kalush hockey club victor zakharov good evening please tell me for people who are not related to our broadcast, which are not related to our broadcast , i apologize, which are not related to the broadcast, which are not related to hockey , what significance did this arena have for the sport of hockey for you, in particular, and for your colleagues well, this arena was very important because in the 14th year, when the rashists destroyed the druzhba sports palace in donetsk, all ice

sports came to druzhkivtsi, figure skating was practiced by around 1,000 children, maybe even more at school, it was the biggest school and our professional team returned to a friendly place and it was like my second home during these eight years and yesterday with tears in my eyes i looked at these terrible shots. and do you know how destroyed the arena is or is it subject to reconstruction i just listened to the people from druzhkivka, they hope that they will rebuild, and whether it is possible to rebuild, i have no doubt that they will rebuild, i just wasn't there, i don't know, well, from the photo, i think it's possible, although i'm an expert in everything in this matter, well, it's this arena could become the target of a russian missile, well, you see how they fight with civilians, with the civilian population. well, i have no comments. this is very scary. how many people

die every day in ukraine because of this terrible war . the russian and pro-russian publics write about it. they say that the ukrainian military was stationed in the arena and they published photos of the mattresses, is it possible to assume that there really could have been ukrainian military there and they could have become a target? it can be seen that there is a lot of water in all kinds of boxes. i think that it was some kind of help for people . i understand you. and please tell me according to your evaluations. or maybe with information for how many people, athletes, this arena was, well, not like a second home, but such an iconic landmark the location, a landmark place in the region, there were a lot of fans, a professional team, a children's

school, as i said, more than a thousand children were involved, small hockey players, er, skaters graduated in 2004, a whole team of boys literally a year before that, and on february 24 there there was nothing, no one was busy , viktor zakharov, ex-captain of the donbass hockey club. we talked about the significance of the destroyed arena in druzhkivka by a russian rocket the day before. the village remembers the russian troops fired at the estuaries with everything they had available, so the village suffered minor destruction, people are used to surviving without light, gas, communication, and also without an ambulance and rescuers after the liberation of kherson, the

front line moved away from the limans, so the limans are returning to their homes and trying to rebuild the village, look at the people, we have already added more than a thousand people to the population. two minutes and that's how it is with us, tuesday, thursday and saturday, well, there's no such fear yet if the hook is humming on the other side of it, the heart becomes and it's already calmer, well, the shops now have access to trade, it's getting better little by little if only it wasn't gupalo, we weren't. oh, before that, it was very scary. they didn't hide and cried and ran away. they didn't know what to do. it was so scary. there was no connection at all. there was no internet

connection. there is nothing. we can call our relatives. nothing now, of course it was quieter, of course, we survived here, oh, we lived in the basement for half a year, we lived in the basement, we first woke up and ran away when we were shooting at him, and then already in the evening we climbed there until the morning and spent the night there. the roof and windows were also damaged and the sheds were blown away and everything was broken. we had the first serious arrival on april 8, on the night of april 8. it was really huge. this is a vine, here we planted flowers in it, then later in the second vine, it is still with flowers so that it does nothing. reminded me, and it hit the wall between the reception room and my office, and the 152nd shell flew here and they hit more than once , hit in this direction and hit in this direction . well, the building itself withstood

rockets back and forth for half an hour. so you will stand and bend and a second and the whole bark of the house was blown away anyway, you didn't go anywhere, those green rockets are visible somewhere on a tree , it was holding on and in the evening it fell and blew away everything that was left, everything is alive in the yard and this is slowly coming to a stop i only recently went to work, before the war people also came and took books e- people still come and want new literature, our pensioners want to read more, and the press and books are also taken for children. so i think that there are even a little more readers than before, we left because we had a problem with our house, we have a little

it was too late and like all 50% or 60% had to leave because well, it was difficult and now we are already adjusting at home, i am saying and i have been thinking for quite a while now, they have led us a little and this same one, well , business has already started again for itself, five more have been restored a little in memory of the horrors of the war, we have and this is a fabricated cluster bomb, one of the petals of which was a resident of our school director nadia weisman six months ago, but the guys gave me a reminder that it has already been demined in order to show because in the future, i plan to do museum, i say well, somewhere in a little room will it be at my house or will it be somewhere else? i don't know how life will turn out, but i plan so that we don't forget and the next generations know that the orcs brought us

very , very much evil. the armed forces of ukraine have received reinforcements and further successes of the russian army in this area are unlikely in the near future. in the bakhmut direction and the frequency of russian attacks there has decreased compared to the peak in mid-december, it is noted that both sides suffered heavy losses. meanwhile, the leader of the private military company wagner, which recruits russian prisoners for the war in ukraine, yevgeny prigozhin explained why his mercenaries did not can seize bakhmut, according to him, the armed forces of ukraine, who organized, as he says, at least 500 lines of defense, are to blame for everything.

every house however, attempts to capture the city fail with a bang artemovsk is a fortress in every house and in this every house the guys never come across more than once a day yes sometimes for weeks they took one house for one house they took the second house they took the third house they took what is it to break through baron and i will tell you what is the baron to break through and break through the defense this is today morning one house took the baron's breakthrough and behind this house there are still new defenses that's right and not one defense and such a line of defense how many artemovsky lines of defense well if you say 500 probably made a mistake, yes, let's discuss the situation at the front with a military expert serhiy grabskyi, a colonel of the reserve of the armed forces of ukraine, joins our broadcast good evening, but prigozhyn, who is also called putin's cook, looks like he is justifying why his fighters cannot take bakhmut. he says that there are 500 lines of defense that every

house was counted correctly, well, including , including, and if you move away from such allegories, you really need to understand that the district of bakhmut, and in general, the donetsk region was preparing to the defense for 8 years, and there are not positions created personally, namely defense districts, and each of these districts can provide defense and hold the enemy for quite a long time, which is why the enemy has been trying to bite through our defense for more than six months, we are unsuccessful, and when or where there are simply colossal resources listen and why should i say this in public in general, well, if i had to admit my defeat, the first thing that came to my mind when i saw this address of the beauty was that it was some kind of just ipso and informational special, some kind of informational special operation or what do you think? so why is he announcing this so that everyone can hear that nothing is working out for them, you

know, something is wrong here, something is wrong here, i would like to, uh, you just know, you need to understand a little the mentality of those people and, in accordance with that mentality they are not very concerned because people will die there and how they will conduct hostilities there, they are worried about the result and he is still somewhere deep in his soul convinced that they will take bakhmut and then they will say that you see even the armed forces of the russian the federations failed to take and despite the sacrifices in the style of the so -called grandfathers who fought without counting the number of times, we still captured and here he will say, you see, the russian army could not and i was able to capture such a defense area and which was prepared for eight years and so on and therefore similar to that uh, on the one hand, it will be so , you know, positive uh, by force if they, as they think, succeed in capturing bakhmut, and on the other

hand, he can always say well, you see, i warned a month or two ago that it would be extremely difficult i was betrayed, i was not given there, for example, they didn't give me ammunition, they didn't give me enough people, the fighters weren't motivated enough, and that's why it's completely natural that we didn't capture this settlement , what do you actually see? it turns out that way, in any case, it's a positive thing, remember when or in ria novosti e- he allegedly gave an interview, it looked like a staged one about the fact that difficult decisions will have to be made in kherson in the kherson direction and after that less than a month has passed since the russian troops left kherson, is that correct? i understand that this is including well, it is possible to interpret perhaps we do not claim that this is some kind of preparation of the domestic russian audience for the fact that bakhmut will have to leave, but perhaps it is quite likely and you see well, we have already said - this is the

specificity of the mentality of the moscow oppressors that they are preparing for themselves -e favorite retreat options as it turns out or by- victory or defeat and as uh-e difficult decisions in the case of kherson and 500 defensive positions in the case of bakhmut is played on this message and in general do you have any predictions about how it can develop the situation in the direction of bakhmut, it is considered the most difficult now during the next month, why next month, because there is a high probability that russia will replenish the front with mobilized, you know, it is very difficult to say here, because from a military point of view, it makes sense to storm bakhmut at such a pace as it is being done now, it is absolutely there is no reason, because both the russians and we know in principle that even if we move away from

bakhmut now, the russian military machine will go to work in the next defensive line , and they will not reach the next defense area of ​​ukraine you know how the events will develop, i will not be surprised if tomorrow , for example, active hostilities stop on the russian side because there are no prospects in this and such speeches are pretentious, you know. well, they do not give me grounds for such serious optimism, but i would still like to think that they have already realized, without fooling around and without perspective, their desperate offensive operations near bakhmut, actually like near avdiyivka and in the area of ​​maryinka, where there are also points of serious fighting and they will cease acts of hostilities will lead to some kind of defense there or significantly reduce the intensity of hostilities, therefore it is very difficult to say what is in the heads of the kremlin leaders and how they will continue to behave. although on the other hand, i have no problem with continuing to put dozens of former prisoners there that this is a fairly cheap

type of e-e personnel that does not require serious expenses for them and they can afford it, well, remembering that on the territory of russia more than half a million people are in correctional e-e institutions well, the next wave of mobilization is planned, we will talk about it a little we will talk in more detail later, ah, ukrainian intelligence reports that russia does not plan to end the war and, on the contrary, will continue offensive actions, the only thing is, today i read an interview with one of the representatives of ukrainian intelligence , so here he reports that the russian troops can leave at the same time either from the north or from the east, uh, do you have any predictions. and where, after all, can the russian troops go, because more than one ukrainian military and political official also speaks about the probability of an offensive, you know in there is no doubt about the probability of an attack , first of all, because it is necessary to understand that the

enemy has not changed his strategy at all, and according to this strategy, there is no such state as ukraine and there is no such thing as being on the political ethnographic map of the world such a nation as the ukrainian nation, therefore there is no doubt that they are preparing some plans that talked about the possibility of taking some kind of revenge there and continuing the offensive against ukraine, there are absolutely no such directions or opportunities for offensive russians it depends on many factors and uh, these are factors and the readiness of the units that they mobilized, this is a factor of saturation of their uh, with combat weapons, military equipment and material means, this is also an extremely important logistics factor, how these units will be delivered, how they will be provided, how much they will will be able to carry out some active offensive actions. well,

the management is what concerns the russian side, and the russian management system still remains at the level of the furniture century, and to talk about high efficiency is not necessary, but here we must not forget that we are not outside observers and such a factor as a factor of the defense forces of ukraine also plays a very important role, and the training and motivation of our personnel, the ability to use this weaponry that we have. this is as of today it can also affect the enemy’s plans to carry out some offensive actions. well, it’s definitely, definitely , it’s impossible to avoid such a thing and not take into account such a factor as increasing the pace of supplying us with advanced western weapons that can to seriously influence the enemy's decision to carry out some offensive actions, and having already with you such an example as an example of the maquis, here

are examples of what uh, we cover that we know about, and there is not one such example about the fact that it is possible to price offensive plans with literally uh- e before the start of such offensive actions e when the enemy simply will not be able to carry out an offensive due to the serious damage to its own and battle formations and the destruction of control and logistics systems during the preparation for the operation, here you actually mentioned the maquivka we started our program today from the report about the attack on druzkivka, why was there an attack on this ice arena? is it not revenge for makiivka itself, because makiivka happened a day earlier, where the hai merceta rockets from the gamers allegedly arrived? do you somehow connect these two cases or not? measures can be linked although on the other hand they know, knowing the conservatism of the

russian saltovs, er, consider it exclusively as such an act, such an act revenge well, i wouldn't just do it, you know, a very revealing and large er construction, such a construction is large in destruction will happen. well, it may turn out to be such a rather vivid episode in the hostilities, but i would not put them, er, between makiivka and druzkivka, to this day, and i even ask you why they still attacked this ice arena in druzkivka, it's just terrorist attack this is just terror, it is necessary to understand that druzhkivka is, er, in those districts that were attacked, they are not some districts of decisive military advantage or military presence of the defense forces of ukraine, and this is simply a matter of primitive terror against the civilian population, you know i remember

in mykolaiv, as i communicated with the guys, there were cases and it must be understood that this is specific to the region, including when, after massive strikes on mykolaiv, civilians approached our servicemen and said, guys, maybe you will leave this city, maybe they will stop bombing us actually, such a template is used by this one here, and it can be summed up in just one word, the word terror is good, but if you look at makiivka , how much from your point of view it was a successful operation of the ukrainian troops, and it was an absolutely successful operation, you must understand that when we talked with you about the effectiveness of the use of weapons and the effectiveness of management , we are talking about simply colossal amounts of information, intelligence information with which our defense forces operate, and believe me, there are more than a dozen pages with the exact coordinates of the targets on which we can

target strikes, and here we must not forget about one more such component, namely the national resistance, which allows us to specify the data on each target and deliver the most effective blows to the enemy. with weapons and the ability to analyze and generalize information from the coordination of actions and the help of our troops who remain in the occupied territory for the time being allowed us to strike such a blow, but believe me once again that we have dozens and dozens of such targets on which we can strike and in relation to this and the question arises as to how quickly we will equip our units and military units with more advanced and long-range e-e equipment and weapons, the russian military leadership will draw some conclusions at least. it can be

assumed that they will no longer be to place mobilized people in the ukrainian occupied territories or what do you think, you know, they would like to draw those conclusions, but their ability to take such steps is a little limited, because the weakest part, the weakest component of the russian army has always been logistics, modern logistics, and you and i have not seen there was no report that tens or hundreds of some trucks were handed over to the russian army during the mobilization of the partial mobilization. thus, it is necessary to understand that there is such a thing, you know, in the army they used to talk about such a concept as a convoy, so this convoy must be provided with something. someone must unload, load, transport , drag, well, the power of a universe of different materials, because it is about ammunition, it is about kerch, it is about fuel, and so on, that is why they, unfortunately, became hostages of this old woman the system of the soviet security system, which

greatly limits their ability to destroy the reserves, well, actually, they try to do it, but they can do it up to a certain limit , sometimes the commanders hope that this is the case will pass or as the famous russians say. and here they are trying to save their forces and in this way expose their units. i mean the russian units to be justly destroyed by the defense forces of ukraine. you are talking about the situation in bakhmut and also the attack on druzkivka and makiivka. thank you very much. from heimers on the russian base in makiivka, donetsk region, caused significant criticism of the russian military command in the russian information space, this is stated in the current report of the american institute war research, while

analysts note that the russian ministry of defense is probably trying to shift the blame for the so-called poor operational security to the leaders of the so-called dnr and to the mobilized servicemen, according to the institute's conclusions, such failures in the future may complicate putin's attempts to please the russian military community and maintain dominance in the domestic information space in the occupied makiivka of the donetsk region, let me remind you that on new year's eve, the ptu building number 19 came under fire, there were russian mobilized according to unconfirmed data, hundreds of russian servicemen could have died there. at least 400 dead were reported by the telegram channel of the strategic communications management of the armed forces of ukraine, although the russian ministry of defense reported 63 dead. you can see the consequences of the makiivka shelling. of the mobilized citizens of russia who died in occupied makiivka were military
