-called stars of the russian film and television scene, 119 people were included in the sanctions list, these are both citizens of russia and citizens of ukraine who support the war and putin's regime. who are these people and why only now the ukrainian side is introducing sanctions against them in detail in the near future svoboda life russian aircraft are flying to the airfields of belarus this is reported by the monitoring group of the belarusian gayuns at the airfields 9 helicopters of the russian army have already arrived, this could be 8 helicopters imid24 according to gayunaros aviation will arrive in belarus from january 8 to 12 russian aviation officially arrives in belarus for training, as reported by the ministry of defense of belarus, the next joint air -tactical training with russia will begin on january 16 and will continue until the end month, in addition to airplanes and helicopters, russia is also increasing the number of personnel on the territory of belarus. at the beginning of the year, according to

ukrainian intelligence, russia kept about 10,000 troops in belarus, according to the belarusian district group. on january 5 and 6, four more echelons of russian troops arrived in belarus with equipment and personnel, and on the night of january 7, another echelon arrived in the country, transporting at least 800 russian soldiers, according to reuters with reference to the ministry of defense of belarus during the training of russia and belarus is based on the experience of the russian military who fought in ukraine and emphasizes the urban battles on russian military personnel, you understand that the guys took part somewhere, they have some experience, or someone gave them this experience, respectively . этот опыты give us their evidence, we are also trying to share some of our own experiences. that is, this is the interaction with conversational speech. they get something for themselves, and we already try to apply the same, respectively

, they also spy somewhere, see how we act, in which clubs, in which situations, how is this all for the sake of preparation, and also for themselves, they draw some conclusion, well, it was a video from pro-government belarusian channels what is happening at the training grounds well, let me remind you that the ukrainian military command has repeatedly announced the possible preparation of a new invasion of russian troops from the territory of belarus, what is happening in belarus right now and what does the transfer mean of a large number of russian aircraft to belarus, we will talk about this later, the belarusian political scientist pavlo usov joins the broadcast. good evening. can you now judge how numerous the russian aircraft that is arriving in belarus is, was it in such a number, or was the russian aircraft represented in belarus earlier during some of the previous exercises, well, in fact, the neighborly significance of russian troops on a huge scale happened just before the russian aggression on february 24, 2022,

then it was placed on the territory of belarus a huge russian contingent of about 30,000, as it is also equipped with s300 and s-400 missile systems, and in fact the northern direction was the key to the advance of russian troops during the winter war and now we are observing almost the same process the concentration of huge on a huge scale after february 2022 of the manpower of the russian troops. well, and also the russian techniques. in addition, during the last month, the belarussians were transferred to the russian iskander systems and also the russian s400 systems, which can inflicts e-e strikes on the territory and key military and civil infrastructure e-e of

ukraine. in addition, since february 24, the e-e and periodic rocket and air strikes on the territory of belarus have not stopped on the territory of ukraine, as well as on the territory of belarus iranian martyrs were launched, which were adopted by the russian troops, and to this day, of course, the concentration of manpower and equipment on the territory of belarus cannot but cause belarusians, not ukrainians, and i am certain of them. emphasized that the threat of an invasion or any provocations at the local regional level is possible as long as russian troops are present on the territory of belarus, and even more so here. it should be taken into account that part of the deficit in manpower and equipment can be compensated by the belarusian armed forces, which

are formed jointly with the russian armed forces by the forces of the so-called original grouping of troops and, in fact , the consolidation of the russian and belarusian unarmed forces takes place again during the whole of this time this year, along the entire border, this special unit is the so-called e-e forces of special operations of the belarusian 38 e-e special brigade, the 13th vytebsk e-e special brigade, about 15,000 of them are dissociated throughout the entire border with ukraine, plus there are stationary doors already, in fact, the russian military air base on the territory of belarus is functionally functional, it is a gill-net hole from which flights are regularly carried out, and also a bladder that can take on strategic bombers that's why, unfortunately

, today's situation and so-called maneuvers are necessary, well, it's not worth part of the fact that, again, under such a motto, or the exercises that resulted in the military aggression of russia in february 2022, also under the flag of some the scientists of the regional etogo happened , the same thing happened. and now the only difference is that in february 22 there was no full-scale inclusion of belarus in any military actions, they provided some logistical logistical tasks to the armed forces of belarus well, there was information that even participation in the clean-up of the pripyat chernobyl nuclear power plant, but as far as is known, open military participation of the

belarusian armed forces was not accepted, but now the situation has completely changed because russia itself does not have enough potential they compensate for this due to mobilization. and therefore, in full, there is probably a fairly high probability that the military personnel of belarus may be included to some extent in the military action against ukraine in the organization some kind of sabotage, or the entry of a provocative person into the territory of ukraine, the task is understandable and clear. this is not a breakthrough in some tactical solutions to strategic tasks. well, rather , the withdrawal of power resources, the embrace of the ukrainian armed forces in the northern direction. that is, you. if you have correctly understood the task of all these cluster exercises of russian equipment of the russian military on the territory of belarus, the purpose of all this is

simply to distract ukrainian attention and the ukrainian forces from hotter directions of the front in order to carry out some kind of invasion from the side of belarus eh than include the second one on the first so or as if ukraine did not have the strength to concentrate in the northern direction in anticipation of a breakthrough . ukraine cannot ignore this problem. this would be a new frivolity because if there was no such concentration of forces from the country of ukraine, i think that it is a rocket. some system, the same hammers, should now be located in the north of ukraine, and not at the

hot spots where serious battles are now taking place. a few thousands of military resources of ukraine, which must be protected on this border, but nevertheless, of course, russia can , by means of such scientists, by means of such maneuvers and sabotage, incite the situation in order to concentrate the forces even more ukraine in this direction and in this way provides a weak point somewhere and conducts a counteroffensive operation there again in the same donbass or in zaporozhye and so on.

it is important not to ignore the problem, and of course i include that at some point, it may be possible to carry out provocative actions , requests for a breakthrough in several directions , i mean on the territory of ukraine this is also the volyn region with the center of the direction to lutsk, it can be in rivne, it can also be in chernihiv, and at the same time, there can be foci of tension in several directions. belarusians somehow they can probe, so to speak, the soil in nato countries, well, commit some kind of provocations on the border with poland or

lithuania, i don't know how likely you think such and such a version is... well, i don't see the point of creating such provocations ... territories, that is, on the border territories with lithuania, poland , that's nato as a whole, because now russia has every soldier who throws bundles of hundreds at ukrainian positions there and doesn't respond to nato countries. well, it doesn't make sense , especially since everyone understands what can such a provocation turn out to be? it can contribute only to the fact that supplies, if indeed threats are created on the same territory for the same poland or for lithuania, it will simply force a decision to be made faster. by many nato countries for the supply of heavy equipment and weapons for ukraine, so i don't think that putin now dares

to brag and provoke, there is room for some to radicalize the action, especially since it will be necessary then to concentrate not a small force on the west and on the northern borders, and do not send it to ukraine, it is not clear that it is clear that russia is determined to create chaos in many directions, but now the task for them is not to lose this war and to direct as many resources as possible to the change in the current situation is not in favor of russia, we see it in ukraine, i will only add that the border service of ukraine reports that russia is allegedly inciting the situation on the border with belarus, but the ukrainian border guards have not yet recorded any provocations in the immediate vicinity, thank you very much pavlo usov, a belarusian political scientist was on radio svoboda, we talked about the situation in belarus, thank you, the night

before, the russian military fired missiles at kramatorsk, donetsk region, as reported by the local authorities, but there were no victims many buildings were damaged, in particular, two educational institutions, eight apartment buildings and garages, the mayor of kramatorsk reported this shelling. the ministry of defense of russia called it an operation in response to the criminal attack by the kyiv regime of the pomakians. russia claims that in kramatorsk , they allegedly managed to eliminate more than 600 ukrainian servicemen in the armed forces ukraine stated that this is not true and that there were no casualties as a result of this attack on kramatorsk, a similar statement was made by the american institute for the study of war the statement of the russian side about the carried out retaliatory operation in kramatorsk was called false there, according to the institute's review of signs of serious damage to human victims after the attack on kramatorsk, international correspondents, in particular, reuters agents who worked on the spot and filmed the consequences of the attack , did not find any signs of serious damage to human victims. explosion and explosion explosion the series

was, well, one of them and there was nothing to tell, an ordinary day was very noisy . flew there and you can see what happened. well, you yourself see what i will say. i live in this house. he will see that he

made all the windows in the house. they flew out. well, in the evening , we were delayed twice, and the distance there was already visible somewhere far away at five o'clock and still here. these were shots from kramatorsk, and despite the fact that not western journalists examined the shelled buildings in kramatorsk and did not find victims of shelling there the kremlin is fully trusted

of the information of the russian ministry of defense about the destruction of more than 600 ukrainian soldiers in kramatorsk, putin's spokesman dmytro piskov said this today in response to journalists' questions about whether the kremlin trusts the data provided by the russian ministry of defense. it would be really strange if piskov said that the kremlin does not trust its own ministry of defense, but he said so, he trusts well, in the same donetsk region, as a result of russian shelling in bakhmut and soledar, which is 50 km from the mentioned kramatorsk, two civilians were killed and two more people were wounded in the past day this was reported by the head of donetsk attention, pavlo kirylenko, the bakhmuts of soledar have been under serious attacks for several months. in recent days, the pressure has intensified. russian telegram channels close to the ministry of defense of russia and the wagner air force reported an alleged breach of the defenses in soledar and the advance of russian troops in the area of ​​bakhmut. sources say that there was no breakthrough, but they admit that there are heavy battles on the approaches to both cities, and literally less than an hour ago, the deputy minister of defense of

ukraine, hanna malyar, reported that very heavy the battles are going on right now in soledar , the russian military has regrouped and the storming of the city has begun, i would like to remind you that the bakhmut direction is currently the hottest part of the front, today the spokesman of the eastern group of the armed forces of ukraine, serhiy cherevaty , reminded of this again expert spokesperson of the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine 14-17 years old vladyslav seleznyov good evening glory to ukraine glory to the heroes let's talk about soledar right away soledar russian the military has been trying to storm and seize for more than six months since july 2022. how do you think the situation has changed in recent weeks, that things have changed drastically for quite a long time, in fact, for 4 months in a row, mercenaries from a private military campaign, the guard tried to attack and capture bakhmut

, they have nothing to do with it didn't work out, over the past few weeks, the ukrainian army completely cleared bakhmut and its suburbs from the russian occupiers. they switched their attention a little to the north to the populated solidar, it is there that they have certain territorial gains, the battles are actually going to be difficult on the territory of the eh, these battles are taking place at very small distances 30 50 assault groups of a private military company repeatedly storm the position of ukrainian defenders in fact, the city is completely under fire control, but the situation is not simple, the same mercenaries from the private military campaign of bazner are attacking bakhmut from the north and south, the battles are going on in the most populated point, the situation is very dynamic, we can see

the statements of colonel ocherevatov and the relevant deputy minister of defense ms. malyar, it is obvious that the ukrainian general staff is absolutely clearly monitoring the situation, is making every effort to resolve the situation and, accordingly, directs the appropriate resources and reserves to strengthen the group of our forces operating in this settlement. but again, the situation is extremely difficult, and when we... support, volodymyr zelensky notes that there is hell, in fact, there is hell, because russia , despite the insane losses literally in the corpses of its soldiers, is pushing forward, trying to finally conquer soledar, the situation is not very dynamic, so i am not ready to make any predictions right now, but one thing is still obvious to me the ukrainian army maintains its defense not as much as possible, they used the base of the component, including the means of artillery defeat of the senior commander in order to destroy the huge

numbers of the same russian mercenaries who are trying to capture bakhmut bakhmut and solidar i will quote the infamous painter you mentioned, the deputy minister of defense says that the russian command used a large assault group formed from the reserves of wagner's private military campaign, and she says that the russian the troops are advancing. i will quote literally from the corpses of my own soldiers. they are using artillery en masse. well, then i am so for the understanding of people who are not related to donetsk region to the soledar i will say that soledar is part of the bakhmut front and from soledar to bakhmut is 13 km. please explain why soledar is so important for the russian troops. why did the russian troops stop there and suddenly start storming this city? what kind of military prospects does it have for them ? i do not

see any rational explanations for such audacious actions of the representatives of the wagner private military campaign, but today i had the opportunity to communicate with soldiers who have just returned from the rotation from under the bahmut and they they tell me the following things. the fact is that the skeleton is the group of russian troops that attacks bakhmut and solidar. it is made up of representatives of the private military campaign of bachner. what he does is the control of mining sites, respectively, a certain profit for yevgeny prigozhin. he is the ultimate beneficiary of the private military company wagner . there is, after all, the largest natural salt deposit on the european continent in the solidary area, and in the bakhmut area, accordingly, there are incredible reserves of gypsum of course, under certain conditions, prigorne expects to control these objects, and that is why he is including such a huge amount of effort to take control of these two ukrainian troops, not cities, not everything at

the same time, with frantic losses. to make bloody money, i think not. well, then the question is, what exactly is the lack of the ukrainian military to repulse this attack so resolutely, that is, i mean specifically, it is a lack of weapons, it is a lack of ammunition, it is something very, very unequal the balance of forces or some other factors , after all, the fighting there lasts for six months. it would seem that on such a small, small section of the front, i will, with your permission, start enough . seven large arsenals, the largest on the territory of ukraine, where ammunition was stored , including where a missile for rocket systems was destroyed by fire as a result of sabotage, which were created and carried out by

the relevant units of the russian-occupation before that, warehouses of the ukrainian defense forces on the territory of ukraine, in particular in lozova, were often exploded , that is, the russian federation was actively preparing for several decades to reduce the combat potential of the military potential of the ukrainian defense forces as much as possible , which is why ukraine is now experiencing a very serious there is also a lack of ammunition, and this is actually uh, speakers often talk about it from the ministry of defense from the general staff, for example, the same day when the russians have the opportunity to use up to 20,000 artillery shells, the maximum that the ukrainian army can afford is four to a maximum of seven thousand, that is, the ratio of artillery means and, accordingly, ammunition is not in favor of ukraine , and that is why the russians are now using the tactics of infantry artillery assaults here, when with the support of the insane support of enemy artillery, they are trying to advance forward

in order to seize undisclosed areas of the region is not an easy situation, but again, the prerequisites for the current dominance of russian artillery on the battlefield are laid down not even for years, but for decades, i understood you one more question, today we started the issue of events in belarus, russian equipment is flying to belarusian airfields, please tell me, and there are continuing training, continuing to continue, to what extent is the concentration of russian troops in belarus distracting ukrainian forces from hot areas on the front such as bakhmut and soledar, how important is this factor in this case, with your permission, i will indicate three main factors and for the sake of which the same, the same testing of the actual of russian troops that enter the territory of the republic of belarus leave the territory of belarus, because in this way the russian occupiers pursue the implementation of three three tasks, the first task is to create informational pressure on the ukrainian

general staff, respectively, on the ukrainian defense forces so that we are forced to keep a certain set of forces and means of the northern regions of our country, the second is an opportunity at the expense of the military military industrial complex of the great belarus to restore armored vehicles that lasted for a long time was located at the arsenal bases on the territory of the russian federation and the restaurant of the russian federation lacks specialized enterprises in order to quickly restore the same armored vehicles in large quantities, and the third factor is the use of the training base of the republic of belarus for training and the same things, because few people talk about what, for example eh, for the past two days, belarus has entered the territory of the compound, eh, i haven’t found echelons with russian troops yet, and at least a family of helmets with a probable number of eh devu on board there were about 700 russian soldiers left the borders of the republic of belarus they went somewhere to another part of the front , that is, in fact, putin's army in this way

is trying to implement three very important tasks, both for itself and for the concentration of the grouping of troops, which would be enough for an attack on the territory of sovereign ukraine here i have a very serious doubt because the russians do not yet have such capabilities i am very grateful to you headquarters of the armed forces of ukraine 14th 2017 thank you for mariupol. during the occupation of the city, oleksandr lyakhov organized life in the basement for the residents of his house, got food and drove away looters, local collaborators made a mark on his property, and later, when he left for the dnipro, his apartment was looted , he shared his story with the correspondents of radio svoboda zhizn in karinym the image changed in the 14th year. that is, i will tell people. the war in ukraine began in 2014. and how do i remember it on may 9? ronya called

me from russia from the leningrad region, oret sanya, what happened to you there? i don’t watch tv at all. in principle, demonstrations were shot. this is exactly what happened to me. on this day, they were there in the center of the city near the drama theater. they came under heavy fire . определённые такие большие размеры in the 22nd year. you know, again , my relatives called me. from russia , my uncle called aleksanya, our fool, well, on february 24, i still cleaned the apartment. this was the last time marafet brought his wife. she came from work, the transport worked for us, everything went well, the illusion was created that everything was good, and then by the second of march we had internet, there was light, so many mariupol people asked this question why did the russians come to mariupol so quickly from crimea, my district, western boulevard, shevchenko, he exits uh, right into the fields, where did the handgun come from, at first we tried

to hide in the corridor, you know the rules of two walls, then i realized that it could fly in at any moment, and i started preparing the basement, and also the chairman of the auto garage cooperative the rest of the cooperative brings mattresses and chairs , that is, it prepares the shelter, and the most terrible thing is war in urban conditions, i say first of all the civilians will suffer. that's how it turned out . exactly where they were standing, they just piled up there because i knew that they were flying, and i heard everything from the sound of these how the mines are flying . nothing to him what is left is that everything is burned, we saved our house from the fire, we lost three apartments, but we saved everything around us. everything was destroyed in our house, in our entrance, there was a basement in the basement, that is, understand, the house was still small
