well, if i didn't want to talk about certain details now, because firstly, everything is constantly changing, secondly, secondly, it's wrong, it's because i once commented on the situation very uh, well, if it were detailed, yes, and i'll just ask directly, i got it right. i got to eat like this, i’ll tell you where to go with this, well, they just said that it’s better not to do that, because well, there was just a conversation, and they got to the information discipline, it’s important. yes, but in any case, i hope we don’t cross this line , which, so to speak, separates us from some of a special secret. a couple of days ago, sir , the information came out quite optimistic, of course, on the part of british intelligence, it is already becoming a certain meme, but they said that the peak of the fighting seems to have already passed, but as far as i understand, the peak may still be far away or this peak is simply very strong and bloody stretched out in time well, i

hope that somehow they look at the information in a more general way, more voluminous let's say than you, who performs a number of specific local functions there, and maybe sometimes you get the impression, you know, when someone from the world is there the leaders of the organization make similar statements that there is a pick-paw, er, it means the enemy is an egg, and so on, one may get the impression that everything is fine there in bakhmut or under the audio-visual unit, they don't shoot or they don't go and they don't go constantly every day every hour and at night in different weather, by the way, now it is raining in our place, the weather is so bad plus two and it is raining there, well, everyone is wet , eh. and on the one hand, it is uncomfortable, on the other hand, of course, it slows down the advance of enemy heavy equipment, because it is

in it's crawling in the mud, but here it is in the mud, but here it is we looked at the weather forecast. well, it will soon be -15. this is how we will feel. to be honest, i don't know because there is no trench. well, there is no heating. of course, all the rest are because. well, for example, i have not yet encountered the same temperature, it was -9 but there was no -15. this is the first moment. the second moment. if such a temperature lasts there for more than five days, then the ground will freeze. and it will be hard and heavy, heavy weapons. heavy equipment will be able to drive. of any development we are ready, but i emphasize once again that the situation, despite the forecasts of our world organizations, let's say, it is quite tense every day, every hour of the battle yehor

, how does it affect the situation in your operational zone, and the fact that there may actually be a conflict between the beautiful leader of the wagnerites between him and directly the general staff of the ministry of defense of the russian federation, why am i asking because just a few weeks ago in the luhansk region, a large warehouse of ammunition was destroyed in irmin, they say, it is this warehouse was such a support for the bakhmut direction, in particular, it was used by the wagnerites, who for a long time remain again such a driving force of the enemy in this direction . well, now they are deprived of this resource, and as reported by analysts of the information resistance, in particular, this is the reason that the wagnerites they record a video where they explain that there is no ammunition, there is nothing to fight for, and how does it feel on the ground, that is, is there

really a sense of relief in the context of the barrage of fire and in the context of the initiative from the enemy, well, look, we certainly hope so. i would like to say that yes, the enemy loses the initiative and the fight, of course. going for this tactical initiative, it is such, let's say yes, well, in a certain sense, even chess. but of course, of course. well, of course, if we compare it with the first days of the war, we are parity was one er our shot there dozens of enemy shots now er shots and ammunition are not parity but of course er well, they are not as large-scale as they once were. to be honest, well, among the military, even among the command, well, believe me, nobody not here talks and does not analyze the stories there are beautiful

conflicts and all the rest because there is no when yes there are more specific tasks to evacuate the wounded eh hmm cover the flanks they are transporting well in short i won’t be now you probably know what the service is so there is probably no when to analyze all these uh all these things yes but uh well even by radio interception what can i say from this that of course the enemy can start this projectile hunger and here uh the warehouses are destroyed the ammunition is running out because they just dropped it well it's bigger part of the place is because everything was shelled , including the residential quarters. i don't know the school here, er, there is a technical school, er, an architectural building of 1898, that is, this building

survived the first and second world wars, but it did not survive the third world war, and the enemy flew there projectiles and this building, that's why i'm not why, of course, they have this one. this projectile hunger begins, but for now, let's talk about a certain surrender. well, let's say so, for now, it's too early. we're doing everything to make it happen. command and among the soldiers namely, to break the russian army under fire, not to hold the position, not to somehow hold on, but to inflict a crushing defeat, this is the mood and we are all about it, especially the senior strategic command thinks about it tactically every minute. thank you, igor, for your service and for participating in the live broadcast of the espressogor tv channel yehor firsov, a fighter of the teroborona, a tactical medic, a former people's deputy , now he is in donetsk region near

bakhmut, we are moving on and now we are recruiting oleksandr hanushchyn as a soldier , captain of the 103rd brigade, a tereo mp, levy of the vsk regional council, who will inform us of what is happening in kharkiv oblast. glory to ukraine, oleksandr, to the heroes, glory to antina studio. the russian invaders say they are sinking in the direction of kreminnaya, so they are transferring additional manpower and equipment there. the head of the luhansk regional military administration, serhii gaidai, told how you see this direction of the front, a lot of what i would like to say i cannot say on the air, but from what i can say, in the near future and the criminal svatov will become ukrainian cities again and the enemy is now pulling z reserves of the last forces in order to save

face in front of those who give them orders. i am referring to mr. surovikin and mr. shulga, because it is clear to them that as soon as the ukrainian soldiers regain control over the matchmaking and crime issues in the northern luhansk region, in general, as they say in luhansk the people 's republics in quotation marks as part of greater russia will obviously stand at a completely different angle , how long will it take to stretch those and the luhansk people's republics in the recently occupied cities in the north of donetsk and lysychansk, that is why they are desperately defending this

direction . hungary's favorite questions, mr. oleksandr, and the towns that were already occupied during the large-scale invasion, it is equally important that luhansk region managed to be occupied by the enemy almost completely. the most critical moments, after all, there were several small villages on the borders of the regions that were not under the control of the occupier, nevertheless, you noted that the issue of the occupation of luhansk region in the near future may be from a completely different angle. and in your opinion, what are the prospects for the liberation of those territories that were captured by the enemy from 2014, it is possible that it will be a movement to starobilsk and further from the flint svatovo, well, there are two major directions if you look at the map of the luhansk region. and the

first direction is the actual svatovo crime and, believe me, it is not for nothing that the russians have now taken this the map is not for nothing, now the russians, with the aim of somehow saving the situation in the north of the luhansk region, are digging in around starobilsk , they are doing this, realizing that when they cannot hold the matchmaker, they will have to roll back, and the loss of the matchmaker is the loss of the lion's share of the north of the luhansk region, for the most part a sparsely populated area. but as i said, it is very important in the sense of russian ethics for the two cities that they recently occupied. recently, i mean in the summer of this year. luhansk region is the direction that begins or well, the legs grow with the seversk kokavychi, the well -known belyorivka, which is now controlled by the armed forces of ukraine, and it is under flint, and it is primarily a threat

to lysychansk, which was recently occupied by them in july. this is how the semi- border direction will fall. our armed forces of ukraine, including my comrades, to whom i have the honor to belong, are approaching the enemy in the matchmaking-criminal direction. these battles must have been going on there for almost two months, but there are also, our units of the armed forces of ukraine, which are causing a lot of trouble , and in the area of ​​beliohirivka pushed something from prytul to the suburbs of lysychansk to that enemy. it is not easy there, and in the sense of propaganda, with one and only bahmut for which they are fighting since the same july in 2022, it will be very difficult for them to justify the success in quotation marks around bahmut, so i believe that the loss of luhansk region will be very critical for russian propaganda and for the opinion from inside russia about the passage and that the special operation

is going according to plan, mr. captain. i would like you ask about the mood of the enemy, perhaps you have information, in particular, it is about those russians who surrendered, that is, it is also possible to paint their mood from the other side, we would like to ask you about the level of providing the enemy with the same artillery shells and, accordingly, other ammunition, so to speak, antina's answer very simple, starting from july 22 , when the ukrainian armed forces already received himersi and weapons, the question of the tactics they used earlier to take ukrainian cities of that self-proclaimed of severolnytskyi lysychansk is no longer on the agenda, and even the destruction that yevhen talked about in bakhmut and the number of artillery shells that pour into bakhmut every day is

not in comparison. it really feels like if they didn't have a lot of shells and, by the way, barrels, it's obvious that the issue of defense of bakhmut would be much more difficult for us, and so they rested on a small town, which was already blamed for more than 60%, and they can't move on, that's why they have a hunger for shells and barrels since july, and they have a very significant hunger for their prisoners . the ticket is very attractive, it's true, the ticket is a one-way ticket mostly, but the most motivated are the russian military and it's not surprising that this is a former convict from a convict, it also starts back in this which of their symbols here they are the most motivated

the fighters, all the rest of the people are idiots, so far , this is the living mass of which is plugging the holes in the incomplete ukrainian units of the russians , which the ukrainian army kindly suffered. what was relevant at the beginning of their large-scale invasion has changed. and what could i do and such was the order. that is, they pay the money, that is, some of them are absolutely not connected with a high spirit or some high ideology, even of the same russian measure, the explanation is nothing. you will not hear from them in reality about what they are doing here on this earth and why they were brought here by money and the opportunity to get out of the place of deprivation of liberty, er, there was an order, that is why i am here to provide the enemy with heavy armored vehicles, well , that is, to the authorized representative or vice versa,

everyone is throwing something new and fresh together starting from the fourth of february, there are a lot of them, but everything that can drive is removed from the reserve, and this is all that can drive. believe me, it may not cause much trouble, the other thing is that their equipment is much worse serviced, it is all old soviet stocks that the old soviet ensigns did not have time to reveal their identity. i hope that every day for them the issue of mtz material and technical support will become more and more acute in our hands. we have their armor in the given direction. i cannot give a list of the number of weapons or artillery weapons there. or some other weaponry, i will only say this about the western weapons samples are obviously an order of magnitude better than the old soviet weaponry samples, that is why russia

is currently taking in quantity and we are taking accordingly the last quality of the captain. do you believe, so to speak, in the christmas truce, six, no, just look, kirill voiced a similar initiative. 915th of the 16th year, that is, russia - this is a neighboring continuous cosplay, and this really once happened, but it is obvious that in the solution of the russian-ukrainian war by the russians, there is no place for a christmas truce. we would also like to ask you about the needs of the soldiers that is, it is not about some kind of strategic provision of these or other necessary

devices for conducting the battle, but in your opinion , alexander, what should be more actively packed now and transmit to the front line the communication of drones, power banks, this triad has remained unchanged for me here has remained unchanged for me connection of drones and power banks thank you oleksandr hanushchyn military serviceman captain of the 103rd tire brigade deputy of the lviv regional council worked now live on the espresso tv channel well and we continue our work and before moving on to conversations with our next online guest a little bit of good news i would say uh, such very shocking news the dormition cathedral and the trapezoidal church of the kyiv-pechersk lavra were officially returned to state use, the vicar of the lavra from the uoc mp pavlo lebid did not appear at the signing of the act of return of religious buildings this was reported by the minister

of culture and information policy oleksandr tkachenko in a telegram, the commission began its work on january 2 this year, was engaged in property inventory, as well as drawing up an act of technical inspection of two buildings, the work of the commission provided a comprehensive description of the property of the assumption cathedral and the refectory, as well as the condition of the iconostases and icons of other property in order to return its balance to the holder. lavra and this is truly a historic moment, a historic moment of the return of religious and historical justice, today, by the way , president zelenskyi held another meeting of the supreme commander-in-chief although not about religious affairs, but about purely military affairs, the participants listened to reports about the current situation on the front line and

the likely actions of the enemy in the near future , the state of providing the defense forces of ukraine with the necessary weapons and ammunition, as well as attack and reconnaissance uavs was analyzed, it was indicated that in this context, the participants considered the current the results of the drone army project. unfortunately , we have terrible news in the kherson region just yesterday, on january 4, the russian occupying forces tried to storm the positions of the forces of the defense of ukraine in the bakhmut direction, the border guards inflicted serious losses on the occupiers, but we do not forget that despite this, the shelling of the entire donetsk region continues to suffer periodically and kramatorsk and sloviansk and kurakhove also have destruction and victims . and the office of the president of ukraine reports that as a result a family was killed in the shelling by the russians of beryslav in the kherson region, a shell hit the house, as a result of which a husband

, wife and their 12-year-old son were killed, a conversation took place between the president of turkey, erdogan, and well, they spoke with vladimir putin on the phone, the consequences of this conversation in their dry residue are not too comforting at the moment. putin did not speak, so to speak, about the withdrawal of his interventionist troops, but began to talk about the destructive role of the west, which pumps ukraine with weapons. well, this song is not new, so to speak and at the same time, putin lied, so to speak, saying that russia is open to a serious dialogue, but its main condition, if we believe official turkish sources, is, so to speak, an attempt to temporarily fix our territories are occupied by russian control. well, according to that, it is actually very interesting whether putin had any complaints against erdogan regarding the fact that we made an

official order in the order from turkey for the corresponding armored personnel carriers, if i am not mistaken, we are talking about the porcupine - these are armored vehicles of the navy for the armed forces of ukraine , and they are gradually, as we understand, headed now on the territory of our country, the so-called military analysts, military experts of the russian federation are completely dissatisfied with this, but apparently putin does not have erdogan's forces in a straight line to ask about this, well, erdogan in today's conversation should be emphasized once again, if you noticed, he hinted that the ceasefire should take place unilaterally. and then, as they say, a fair dialogue about some conditions for the end of the conflict in general . well , this is also an extremely interesting moment. - in any case, the president of turkey noted that the negotiations regarding the russian-ukrainian war brought

positive results, in particular, it is about the creation of a grain corridor, well, we understand that this story is quite difficult, so to speak yes, we could have partial palliative negotiations. well , because the creation of a safe zone around the zaporozhye nuclear power station has not been implemented so far, and the key issue of the vision of a fair solution regarding peace and negotiations. that is, this is the key story. well, i don't understand either, khrystyna. i don't understand. few people understand . to whom will erdoğan appeal, it is not about a unilateral cease-fire , i.e. what if putin is saying, but we can read it in our own way, i.e. i just weakly imagine, i.e. a unilateral cease-fire yes, that is, well, the military of this the formulas will clearly not be understood here, but the important

story is more than the vision of a just solution, a just solution is the withdrawal of the russian interventionist troops from our territory, and accordingly, the formula for financial compensation is fixed, that is, it is about rebuilding the destroyed with russian funds, after that, of course, the whole civilized world welcomed would be the beginning of negotiations. but this should be preceded by the withdrawal of russian intervention contingents . in russia, even the propagandists have some kind of very public hysteria about the fact that signals are coming from germany that they can seriously consider the confiscation of russian property in favor of the reconstruction of our country, and the signals about this are actually very

symptomatic and the way they are now manifested under this information the pretext is the individual fears of individual russians who have amassed these fortunes, this is very telling. well, we have the same message. the minister of foreign affairs of germany, alena berbock, left for a visit to of london, within the framework of the first german-british strategic dialogue, will discuss with his british colleague james cleverley, in particular , additional support for ukraine. this is the case when we do not mind if you talk about ukraine without our presence, we are talking about our stable partners, actually. we want to do more than exchange ideas to support the ukrainians with weapons, winter aid and sanctions so that they can win the war and be able to live in peace and harmony as soon as putin realizes that his cruel zagarnytskyi war doomed to rights, the sooner there is hope for ending the war, i

only hope that the british visa mr. mrs. anna elena berbok will be able, so to speak, to convince her that the second leopards in ukraine will be very helpful and will actually help to move certain moments from the dead point we should give credit, so to speak, to france, in particular, to our friend president macron , so to speak, everyone criticized him, ridiculed him, and almost already at the official level, he promised us amx 10 rc wheeled tanks and armored vehicles, bastions, here i do not undertake to evaluate the tactical and technical characteristics of those wheeled tanks, but the key point is that france will de facto be the first. well, i don’t know how to evaluate, for example, the self-propelled artillery units of the krab that poland supplied us, so what’s the

special difference there? but in any case, the fact that the french went to supply, well, they will go, let's say, to supply us with light but combat tanks - this is an important story, and this is actually the first case that i spoke to the military about tanks, and let's not say that there is a super difficult story, but this is the crossing of a certain psychological limit, but we also have signals from our foreign colleagues , journalists from the washington post, they refer to the words of an anonymous high-ranking official from the biden administration, and now we are talking about the fact that the united states is shutting down the transmission abrams tanks to ukraine due to technical reasons in the comments of the publication, the official noted that the tanks weigh 55 tons, have a gas turbine engine in operation, this tank consumes a lot of fuel, and he added that the abrams tanks are too heavy and can often break down and require great service experience, that's the story, unfortunately

, our song, as they say, is a good new one, it 's about the non-delivery of abrams tanks, but we understand that this is far from the end of the discussion, and we understand how gradually, gradually, the west comes to the understanding that without delivery heavy armored vehicles simply die, too many people die. that is, this story is not even about some direct victory, that is, tanks - it is not only about offensives, but also about the defense of, in particular, our positions. i think that the united the states will soon be forced to reconsider their position. well, simply based on what the precedent has already done. well , the president should do it in any case. well, maybe not abrams, but the bmp bradley is completely biden. well, let's say it semi-officially. confirmed that ukraine can receive

american bradley infantry fighting vehicles in the new package of military aid, by the way, in this package, which will arrive or will be officially issued in the coming days or weeks , additional guys may also appear. it is needed to ensure the transportation of motorized infantry units to the battlefield, the introduction of combat from a car and for fire support, the car is also interesting. in belarus , a priest korostylov was detained who prayed for ukrainian soldiers. to all the mourners, joy in minsk. well, if they have already started detaining priests for praying, this is already just a clinical diagnosis, although there and without it, everything is written, you are just here

in fact, it will be necessary to analyze this case, because i am sure that now russian propaganda will take up the analogy. we have precedents when, in kherson, which is still occupied , priests of the uoc mp, at least one such precedent knows, resorted to prayer and actually gave permission for aggression by the russian military and carried out this aggression against ukraine well, it is clear that ukraine qualifies - it is in the appropriate way... but why is it not the same as what is happening now with a specific priest in belarus? i think it would be the same not bad to interpret. i am sure that antin burkovskyi will do it only a little later. you received such an important message from the commander of the defense forces of the capital

. training grounds, so the ukrainian leadership will have time to warn in the event of a new danger, we have created a group on the border with belarus that is ready to meet the enemy with dignity several lines around kyiv with a total length of about 1,000 km where a powerful defense system has been created on the basis of fortification positions and long-term defense structures literally in a moment about the tragedy in the kherson region and the consequences of shelling in the zaporizhia region
