and e are counting on aviation, because the ministry of defense of the republic of russia and the republic of belarus says that from january 16 to february 1, joint russian-belarusian aviation exercises will be held. during the exercises, all airfields and training grounds of the air force and vet troops of the armed forces of belarus will be used. well, we know that russian planes are based on the territory of the republic of belarus. we remember that in february and march, planes that took off from airfields in belarus carried out missile strikes and air strikes from the territory belarus or from the airspace of the belarusians because of chernigov, is it possible to repeat such a scenario when russian planes will take off from belarusian airfields and strike the northern cities of ukraine, madness may happen, i

cannot cancel it, but if on this occasion they entered our airspace space with absolutely all types of machines, starting from the best su-25 that they have, ending with the latest k-58 attack helicopters. and our pto at that time still wanted very much better , what are they counting on, now i really can’t understand the level of air defense significantly cut, we learned to take even heavy complex aerodynamic planes such as caliber and charter first and let me remind you that planes and helicopters are much more convenient and a simpler target, that is, if they dare to turn their pilots into fertilizer and airplanes into straw. well, welcome to hell, in my opinion, the only thing that really remains truly dangerous is the mig 31 that carries on board

the scariest and most serious x-47 m2 dagger missile, but there are only 41 of them - this is really a weapon of absolute defense. he is a colonel of the armed forces of ukraine, a military expert, friends, we work live on the espresso tv channel, as well as on our youtube and facebook platforms, for those who are watching us live now, please like this video for that for it to be promoted in the trends of youtube and facebook for those who want to become our sponsor, a sponsor of the youtube channel, under this video you can find a description of the instructions on how to do it, we need your help. well, friends, continue, continue, we are in touch yuriy syrotyuk , a serviceman of the armed forces forces of ukraine sol,

a grenade launcher of the fifth separate assault regiment with the call sign mom, who is currently fighting in the direction of bakhmut, mr. yury, good day . good health to you and i am glad to see you on our air. i congratulate the company, so, despite reports about the silence of the army during the christmas holidays, russia fired incendiary ammunition kherson sent a blow to kramatorsk and other cities of e.e. donbass president zelenskyi said that the world saw russian lies and russia's diplomatic and political manipulations will no longer work, we will hear and see zelenskyi the world saw it again with me that russia, even when it itself draws attention to the situation at the front with its own statements, the russian shelling of kherson incendiary right after christmas, pokromatovsky's attack on other cities of the donbass, specifically for civilian

objects, just when moscow was reporting on the alleged silence of the army, repeated threats to russian officials in europe, all this while in moscow something was being said about the alleged cease-fire, no attempt by russia to manipulate diplomacy and politics ever again will work so, mr. yury, please tell us what happened during the so-called armistice that putin announced right next to bakhmut on our part of the front, we do not feel the armistice. over the past six months, it is clear that when russia talks about armistice it is certain that they wanted to increase their troops and ammunition a little. because before the new year, there was probably no armistice yet, but it was not so drunk that it was quiet at midnight on our part of the front . i think that it is not even christmas for them a christian holiday is an excuse to get drunk once again, but already tonight, for example.

it seems that they simply regrouped because tonight there was also the use of phosphorous ammunition and they worked in the same section. and now in our part of the front where we are, we are going a very heavy battle, the enemies are attacking our advanced positions, that's why they used this truce for propaganda purposes from the outside in order to tighten up before pulling up weapons and ammunition with new strength to start the attack now at these very minutes in these hours heavy battles are going on in our section of the bakhmut front itself p yurii, what are the russians trying to do, well , to put in such a yoke, as if to embrace bakhmut and soledar in order to displace ukrainian military expositions, the russians used tactics for a very long time , they used it for more than six months on this part of the front, they used the tactics of a frontal attack, at first they hoped for

their superiority in artillery, armored vehicles in manpower, which they do not regret at all. the frontal attack failed and they began to try to use it for them, as if successfully . having cut off lysychansk from the ukrainian group and the ukrainian army had to retreat in order not to carry or not to be encircled. therefore, now the enemy uses similar tactics by attacking bakhmut, trying bypass it from the north through soledar and trying to cut off the kostiantynivka-bakhmut road in the south trying to pass through the flanks well, but today, today, on this very day, we notice the activation of the russian mood along the entire width of the section of this front, that is, the rod goes around, of course, the grenade launcher here, i don’t have data on the entire section of the front today we feel a very serious aggravation, in parallel with our

broadcast, the walkie-talkie is working where we hear this intensity of the battle that is happening at these minutes, that is, there is a significant activation today combat operations on the bakhmut front, the russian occupiers have concentrated more of their units in the bakhmut direction and are systematically putting pressure on the defense of ukrainian troops, in particular, the soliders, serhiy cherevaty said this - he is the spokesman of the eastern group of troops, according to him, the soldier has long been one of the hottest spots on the bakhmut front, the russians there all this time, with the help of regular troops and the wagner group, they are trying to find the weak point of the armed forces in all populated areas of the region and break through our defenses mr. yurii, considering the contingent that is trying to take bakhmut by storm, are there more wagnerites, or do they still have an echelon, an echeloned offensive combination, when they

will go on the offensive from the first, there are those they recruited in places of detention, then more prepared units who are these who are these people or who who are these persons who are trying to storm the city on our part of the front as the so-called dnr and lnr worked here in the previous period, i.e. pro-russian russian soldiers who were counted in the so-called first alpine corps of the dpr and in the army corps of the dnr led by russian commanders, collaborators who either forcibly mobilized these corps or they deliberately went there, uh, these are people who fought against ukraine for a long enough time, then when their forces were exhausted, they were mobilized. this was the worst quality of the russian troops, they died faster than they understood. where will they end up ? now we are dealing with professional soldiers. good luck with the so-called wagnerites, who are really acting frantically. first, they send prisoners

to identify our firing positions, and already for they are professional soldiers of fortune who use the lives of their comrades . it is difficult to name them. they are driven by alcohol or drugs, but they keep coming and you have to make a lot of effort to stop them, even though it was only a couple of days ago, well, a little more than a week on our part of the front, we drove the enemy 500 meters forward, forced them from their positions, captured their trenches. that is, this is a difficult enemy, a difficult enemy, but an enemy with which you can fight, which you can defeat and counterattack, how does mr. yuriu affect offensive actions, well, accordingly, defensive

actions the weather conditions of the ukrainian army, because rather warm december is replaced by january frosts in ukraine, military analysts warn that this is the weather for offensive actions in winter, well, it means offensive counter-offensives of the ukrainian army by the offensive of the russian army, do you feel a change in tactics in connection with the deterioration of weather conditions on the eastern front, on our part of the front, the weather is not bad, there is no knee-deep water in the trenches, and poor visibility did not stop the attempt of the russians to attack again, i will mention more than six months here continuous attacks by the enemy continue, this is the section of the front that, with its defense, allowed the ukrainian army to counterattack in other sections of the fund and achieve success, in particular in kherson and kharkiv oblast, here the enemy is constantly

attacking and we are constantly trying to counterattack now, of course, the enemy will be able to attack more widely, because if the weather was very bad before, the enemy's armored vehicles and wheeled vehicles could only move towards grih and along the roads , now when the fields freeze, the front of the offensive can be significantly expanded. although there are natural obstacles, there is the dnipro donetsk channel accordingly, it is appropriate, and up to this time, the places of the enemy ’s main attack were known on our site. we understand that the enemy who will attack will not even be fed, in this case, the ukrainian army has better thermal underwear, better clothes, better shelter, so i think that the weather will not work for the enemy as he thinks, but will work for us, nato has already assessed the possibility

of supplying heavy tanks to ukraine general nato secretary jens stoltenberg does not rule out the possibility of nato member countries supplying heavy tanks to the country. he said this in an interview with one of the european newspapers , he said that without answering the question journalist, can ukraine get american tanks, abrams, german geopards, stoltenberg said i do not rule it out, but i will not promise anything, well, that is, the functionary of the north atlantic alliance does not rule out that the heavy equipment requested by the armed forces of ukraine and the leadership of the ukrainian state will still arrive in ukraine, as far as the supply soldiers and leopards to what extent this will change the situation on your front and uh, is this not enough now for a successful defense? well, accordingly, the counteroffensive of the ukrainian army on the eastern front

the enemy on our part of the front is possible only because he continues to outnumber us many times over in terms of artillery weapons, the ability to fire the number of shots in tanks, and in armored vehicles, we quite often have to continue fighting on the so-called bander-white unprotected pickup trucks for more than twenty years ago. therefore, it is obvious that the presence of armored vehicles and if the presence of anti -artillery will allow us to level the situation at the front, it will allow us to go to the obvious offensive. i will give a very simple example. i work on the american mark 19 mk-19 automatic grenade launcher, we call it marko 19, this is an analogue of the soviet or russian automatic grenade launcher gs-17 e-e, my grenade launcher shoots further more accurately and more powerfully than e-e the soviet analogue, it is

obvious that when a modern western os comes - weapons, it makes our tasks easier - it is the surface of the tasks of our infantry, it makes it impossible to stop the enemy's offensive and allows us to attack more effectively, and this is a very, very small example, if a modern tank comes, a modern armored car will appear more more guided by artillery weapons, the ukrainian infantry will suffer less, because now the ukrainian infantry bears the brunt of the war, which feels the multiple superiority of the enemy's artillery and the constant massed infantry attacks of the enemy. if we got more armored vehicles, then we will be able to stop the enemy at a distance of two kilometers three kilometers four kilometers and then we will lose significantly less of our people colonel-general oleksandr syrsky went around the troops defending in the area of ​​bakhmut and soledar in soledar, the commander of the ground forces of the armed forces of ukraine directly implements

specific measures to organize the defense, increasing the direction of the transfer of additional units and the degree of fire damage to the enemy, the enemy again made a desperate attempt to storm the city of soledar from different directions and threw into battle the most professional units in the wagnerian army. at the same time, thanks to courage thanks to the skilful and competent use of fire damage by our defenders, the enemy suffered negligible losses and once again retreated despite propaganda hostile statements colonel-general oleksandr esterskyi said about the allegedly captured soledar. well, this is the assessment of the situation by oleksandr syrskyi. well , mr. yuri, i wanted to ask you about these mobilized people who appear at the front on the eastern front, people who, uh, start from the summer of 2022, the russians are trying to recruit to mobilize for service

, we have not yet heard the statement of the general of the main directorate of intelligence of the ministry of defense that in the near future the russians want to mobilize another 500,000 people for the war with ukraine. we know about the intentions of the russians from more than one and a half years, 500,000, 350,000 , 1.5 million people, according to you, the accumulation of this large mass of people who go to the front, on the eastern front, is it eh and finds its place. as they say, resistance from our side is enough for us resources in order to stand against this mass that is being driven to the front from that side. well, i want the part of society that is not yet fighting, that is not yet taking up

arms, to understand that in the event of a general broad mobilization in russia, even more ukrainians will be forced to take up arms i recommend it for those who today have the opportunity to work in the rear not to be mobilized by any method to prepare for possible hostilities in the next russia will not play nobody's option uh defeat in this war is death for putin for putin's regime that's why he will raise the stakes probably what will happen to continue the mobilization, he should give himself up to a full-scale mobilization, and then we will also have to call ukrainian soldiers in response to more of the ukrainian group that is participating in heavy battles starting from february 2022 year simply needs strong forces eh this is also not a secret so we must be prepared for it but modern war

is such a very interesting war on the one hand it is very similar to the first world war because it is heavy and fierce because there are infantry artillery on the free side is very technological when drones hang overhead drones adjust fire drones indicate the movement of the enemy drones drop grenades so if we get enough technological means enough modern tanks enough modern artillery then it will not be necessary to call up so many people, because for russia people are nothing, for them people are cannon fodder, and for us people are a great value, and believe me, it is necessary to properly prepare to own modern weapons, well, it takes enough time, but we must be ready to the point that we may again find ourselves in a situation where the maximum number of the population will have the task of taking up arms, even if the northern border of ukraine is covered there, well, by the way, regarding the northern

border of ukraine, in principle, the leadership the armed forces of ukraine says that non-ukrainians have enough strength to prevent and ensure security on the northern border from the side of belarus, according to your opinion, can russia together with belarus resort to another offensive against ukraine this was on february 24, 2022 when the representatives of the same belarusian authorities convinced our leaders that no, we are not here at all and we will never do this, and then three days later, the minister of defense of the republic of belarus called oleksiy reznikov and said that well, you better surrender at least this is the proposal given to you by serhiy shoigu, or whether belarus can in this case

be used again as a bridgehead to enter ukraine, well, in particular, in order to strengthen its offensive actions on the eastern front, in particular near bakhmut and also soledar. in my humble opinion of a grenade launcher soldier, i don't care how russian soldiers will advance on my part of the front with a grenade from one grenade launcher knocking out all living things around 7 m. i can fire 32 grenades at once and destroy a large area of ​​​​the enemy, will there be one enemy will die or 500 enemies will die there, therefore, the concentration of manpower in donbas will not give russia anything, therefore, it can try to stretch the front again in order to look for weak points in the enemy's defense, because now the maximum number of our troops and equipment, their vehicles and equipment are concentrated here, and for now yes it is very similar to such a certain strategic balance and a war of attrition

, so putin has mobilized and will be able to try to expand this extended maximum front and will be able to try to counter in other places, including in in those places where we repelled the enemy in the kharkiv region , whether or not cherni and this is my assumption, if he does not achieve any success there, i am also convinced that we are more ready to repel the enemy 's attack. group because he needs any kind of victories, the enemy after the capture of lysichansk, severodonetsk, there are no successes in this phase of the russian-ukrainian war, even the small town of bakhmut, which is actually for the enemy it has no aesthetic significance for us because it is a way out for us to return debaltsev’s threat to luhansk is for us an opportunity to

conflict in the direction of donetsk for the enemy bakhmut has no strategic significance it has an ideological meaning putin will not be able to mobilize his population for a war with ukraine if he does not will show them any success. well, they see uh, make-up, how their mobilized people died even after reaching the front, they see other cases. therefore, they need any success, and for that the enemy can try to expand to raise the degree to expand the war fund in order to get at least something, any prize in donbas, we already hear when we have the opportunity to read donetsk region, the connection with yuriy sirytyuk, who is in the direction of bakhmut, is disappearing, friends for those who are now watching us live on youtube and facebook i suggest and encourage you to like this video and subscribe to our youtube channels, facebook page we are on all

social networks, join our social networks, we promptly provide information about what is happening in ukraine and world and again we have yuriy syrotyuk on the line, mr. yuriy, give me some problems with communication, of course, the enemy is attacking during the attack, including the means of radio-electronic warfare, even stalin's can break through these things, so i apologize to the audience, otherwise, once again i would like to remind my friends that yuriy syrotyuk is located in the direction of bakhmut, the hottest point of the eastern front and, in general, the hottest part of ukraine today. on december 31, on january 1, the ministry of defense of the russian federation said that they had carried out an operation against the board in kramatorsk,

saying that they got into two dormitories where ukrainian military personnel were actually located . russia was criticized by the ministry of defense for the fact that it spread a fake statement about the retaliation operation in e kramatorsk, well, that is, we see, mr. yuri, that russia was and remains a lying country , that is, they quite often or almost always they are lying and the same patroshel appeared just now, the information of the secretary of the security council of the russian federation stated that russia is not at war with ukraine, well, that is, some kind of complete delusion, such a post-alcohol intoxication, probably, in the leaders of russia and in those who fight on the russian front, i i wanted to ask you, how do you feel about a soldier with a grenade launcher, do you accept

any negotiations about the conditional peace of ukraine with russia, any ukraine has always lost in russia not with wars, but with mayors , it was historically starting from pereyaslav to negotiate with the bolsheviks until the so-called ilovaisk corridor, it will also be certain when we were promised a peaceful exit from ilovaisk and the soldiers were shot in this so-called ilon corridor once upon a time, i don't remember which of the poets said the infidelity of the sea there is only treason moscow peace with russia is possible only after victory as capitulation russia changes only after the post-war defeats after the defeat, remember the russo-japanese war, russia had to partially change its internal structure, therefore, only a military defeat and the way to sports russia, where

the intervalization of russia, unfortunately, unfortunately we are losing touch with yurii syrotyuk, we will put an end to our conversation with yurii. thank you very much for tuning into our broadcast. it was yurii syrotyuk, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine, a grenade launcher of the fifth separate assault regiment with the call sign mamay, he is fighting now in the direction of bakhmut, our friends we work live on the espresso tv channel as well as on our social networks for those who are currently watching us on youtube and facebook please like this video subscribe to our pages on youtube and facebook we are also in telegram, on instagram, on twitter, and most importantly, don't forget to read our site espresso tv, we work for you 24 hours a day, seven days a week, the most prompt information about what is happening on the fronts of ukraine in the eastern and southern ukraine,
