two shellings, but as a result of these shellings, people were also killed and injured. and please tell me , the enemy is lining up and there are some drones working for him, well, is it possible to fix them, let's say in the sky, or are they hitting like that, where do they say, uncle, let's go and more not a building, and well, it’s difficult there with the pilot, we’ll quickly say something to adjust, but eh. as for logistics, the logistician leaving the city, here it really is, they use unmanned aerial vehicles , mostly eagles, eh. necessarily military equipment, they even see free equipment , all the more so. well, if they see buses, they understand that these are volunteers or they are coming to the city to bring humanitarian aid or are

our employees or er. let's say this is how the evacuation of people happens and they just hit er on these cars. and if he still sees the loudspeakers of two or three cars there. it is clear for them that this is some kind of signal that it is something or something or they are driving or taking it out or bringing it into the city a-a and on the account uh-uh we fix it. the guys fix it but uh-uh we understand, well let's say so there is no v us means and means, and let's say specific , er, such things that would be possible today here and now at this moment to shoot down a drone because, well, there are some systems, let's say pplom, you can't put them so close to the front line, because they will immediately become such a target, yes , for defeat it's the same artillery, because they really reach a lot of places, and i've already said more than once that, well, somewhere 12, maybe even 15 km, er, at the entrance to the city, all

the villages of the ocheretyn community. please, of course, now the enemy has concentrated there a third of its forces, which in principle are on the territory of ukraine, north of donetsk, horlivka in bakhmut soledar, and there are very fierce battles . i understand that we are talking about avdiyivka, does the enemy not have any attempts to take any offensive actions, they limit themselves to this terrorism by shelling the local population and residential buildings, and the actions continue almost every day, their number is such wave-like, that is, there are more of them, then there are less of them, sometimes, even on the positions, there are from 100 to 250 shellings per day, this is only on the positions of the assault actions, it is just

in our direction. the donetsk direction is not only avdiyivka, it is also maryinka. in our direction, sometimes there are 5-8 assaults per day, and there are even more than 40. have but it's not a success, it's just that ours left on let's say more uh, tactically, uh, it's a convenient position for us, that is , you climbed to such heights, uh, well, the armed forces have control over the new control, because uh, sit, for example . they blew it completely to zero and there well really guys there is nothing to even hold on to and er people are just sent to be

slaughtered excuse me we are a little no one counts it, but they lose all the junk starting with these wagnerites well, in general, there is any russian there. dana is not a person with you, unfortunately, we are losing better. thank you very much, first of all, thank you for your work, it is important, and thank you for your comments, vitaly barabash, the head of the avdiiv city administration, was with us. so, we see that the enemy does not give up hope of storming and er carrying out assault actions in the direction of avdiivka maryinka well, of course, he concentrated his main forces in the area of ​​bakhmut and soledar, there were also battles there today. well, i think serhiy zgurets about it i'll talk more, i just wanted to say , do you remember yesterday i told you about the uh wagnerian, he is the commander of a unit in the wagner pvk headed and created and headed by putin's beautiful cook medvedev his last name is he fled to norway well,

somewhere in the north of russia he went the border and fled to norway, he had previously escaped from the location of a part of his pvk wagner, so to speak, he fought in ukraine, he came out from there, these zhvagenrivets tried to catch him in order to punish him, so to speak, he himself says that they have punishment for those who want to leave the ranks for them, the only punishment is execution with a sledgehammer, what they showed on video is the same sledgehammer that they sent to the european union for intimidation, so to speak, well, that is, they understand that it is really used. this is such a medieval execution for some reason . they believe that she should complain to everyone and here is this commander named medvedev, he fled to norway in order to ask for political asylum there and testify against e. political asylum, we hope that the whole world will hear about the behind-the-scenes of this truly medieval inhumane organization, which is the pvk wagner. and now i am talking to serhiy

lishenka, a deputy of the zaporizhia regional council, and a volunteer p. serhiy, i congratulate you, let's talk about the situation in zaporizhia oblast. well, first of all, i would like i would like to hear your opinion yesterday, well , the city of zaporizhzhia was shelled at night. it is possible that as of this evening, the information that has changed regarding the consequences of the victims, please, well, the number has already been determined. victims a-and this news was already in the mass media. i think it is known, but uh, the consequence of the shelling, accordingly, is primarily that and it was, uh, again, the center of the city, isn't there a bunch of administrative buildings near the center, a- and miraculously, miraculously, no one was seriously injured. and even those injuries that were caused were the result of glass fragments, that is, those who ran out into the corridor actually sustained injuries . i know this is a disturbing story. can you tell

us more? in energodar , the heating system was destroyed by the enemy, well, it is disturbing. in that it makes sense that there is also a zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in energodar, maybe it is not related to that. but in principle, if we talk about the population that continues to live there under occupation , then in the winter, this story is definitely not unpleasant. is it true, because i read it? regional news, well, in particular in zaporizhzhia, but it is always worth checking and knowing more, please . the heating system of the energy supplier was built in such a way that the heating comes from the local test a-a where the heating system is actually a partial cooling system of the winter test period, i.e. in the summer, water is discharged into the dnipro, and in the winter it is run through the water supply network in the city and in fact, in this way, it heats the city from interruptions in

work. power plants, thermal power plants, periodic breakdowns and surpluses of electricity there. because they are not sent to ukraine, but left there in place, no one consumes it, that is, because of those problems, it periodically also stops when it stops, accordingly it stops and the heat supply system is created under such problems and so on, this is what the locals explain. there was information that the heat supply system itself was damaged and, accordingly, the city is not adequately supplied with heat, but so far i have no confirmation, let's hope that it is so. will remain and these are just technical failures and you will make money on your own. i will ask about melitopol. i have two questions about melitopol. well, we will have time. if the first is short, is it really true that the collaborators who are in melitopol advised to spend the night in the crimea and not stay in melitopol because it is there. no one guarantees that

after sleeping they will wake up alive and well , please a-a well, the fact is that a large number of collaborators have already taken their closest friends and family there for several months to the crimea or even to the russian federation, the same hospital worker, for example, his son is not in melitopol and they find him in other territories, because it is possible that it will end badly, that's why many of them really do not work in melitopol, they leave to other territories where they are more protected, including crimea, especially in a two-hour drive under normal conditions. well, the prices in melitopol have been written about this more than once, that they are usually sky-high for people with the income they have in this place or indeed, the enemy does everything in order for food, some items that are for other things, well, such vital things, i am not talking about something like that, even some luxuries, they did not become inaccessible to people who profit from this, the most important thing is that uh, this is a

result not just in unintentional actions of the enemy sent there for food products, this is the result of a sky-high level of corruption, the breakdown of trade relations, and the bad supply situation in principle in all occupied territories. the fact is that food products are transported from the rostov region, usually in most cases to to go there, a businessman needs to buy several passes, i.e., the commercial component, the corruption one, lay down his commercial one, and spend seriously on the rental of tour transport, because the transport in many of them is industrial there, that is why they say trucks too are withdrawn for the needs of the military, and those that are available are expensive, and the drivers must

have passes, etc. we multiply the prices in the unoccupied territory by three and get the sums of the value in the occupied territories, so people have quite bad purchasing power in this regard and survive. thank you very much for joining our e-e teru serhiy leshchenko, a member of the zaporozhye regional council and a volunteer, was in touch with us. well, i will also say that like the gaulaitersha in kyrylivka, i think that all ukrainians early at least once in their lives rested in kyrylivka, in performance, they were there kyrylivka near fedotova spit, well, such an e- there is a certain level of recreation on the shores of the sea of ​​azov, and there it means that this gaulaisha was captured by some kind of cooperation with the enemy, and there are recreation centers where people used to rest, and it shows off, which means that from this recreation center there is a view of the sea of ​​azov, of course, the sea of ​​\u200b\u200bazov it froze a little, well, but i think that she should remember well these views of the sea of ​​azov, the aromas, the smell of the sea, because after some time

, i think she will admire only the prison walls , which i really wish for her. defen express is the host of the column, military summaries of the day, serhiy, glad to see you. congratulations vasyl. congratulations to our viewers. can the statement from the anti-flood defense of ukraine that the best fight against s3st s400 is to beat them even in the city of their location, or is it means that sooner or later a decision will have to be made about strikes on the territory of belarus. by the way, regarding the statement of the petrine forces, they claim that this complex that used missiles to strike the capital was located in the bryansk region of the russian federation, but we understand that such risks exist from belarus russia itself, so we really need to scale up. the experience we have in destroying the s300 anti-aircraft missile, which we destroyed quite actively in the south with a mihar missile from our planes, and now we need to

use other methods to actually to deprive the enemy of the opportunity to threaten our peaceful cities and villages, but in today's release of the military program, we will talk about the situation on the fronts. and also about the possibility of receiving from germany not only leopard tanks, but also tornado aircraft, more on that in a moment. if we talk about the front situation, then we should start with that that today there was another meeting of the supreme commander-in-chief, according to volodymyr zelenskyi, they discussed the events on the front lines, primarily in donetsk region, and in the south they discussed the assessment of the likely actions of the aggressor in the near future and also about the fact that it is necessary to develop and implement effective countermeasures to protect against new missile attacks from the enemy, so that as we can see,

among other issues, the supply of the armed forces with ammunition and the training of tactical unit commanders are extremely important in view of the fact that current hostilities as well as for the preparation of reserves for our army and separate information about the soledar, on the capture of whom the russian army has concentrated maximum efforts since the new year, according to the approval of the spokesman of the eastern group serhiy cherevatoy's troops on the evening of january 16, this is the status of the city, not russian. he added that the armed forces of ukraine now have two tasks in the soledar area. and equipment and to reduce the offensive potential, according to serhii cherevatoy, the armed forces of ukraine for considerable periods of time managed to carry out

tasks in donbas. and what is generally happening on the fronts with a greater in detail and what changes can be expected, we will talk about it with the military analyst , reserve colonel vladyslav seleznyov, to vladislav i welcome you to the espresso channel, i am sincerely glad to see you glory to ukraine glory to the heroes, now the attention of ours abroad and actually, the enemy is chained to the hottest point on the front, this actually, soledar and bakhmut, you are communicating with our brothers, what is the latest information about the state of affairs on this part of the front, and is it possible to talk about what soledar and bakhmut are actually doing right now the same mission that north donetsk lysychansk once performed, that is, destroy the enemy force, which actually corresponds to the main task of our active defense, i absolutely agree with this statement, because in fact

, russia is currently suffering incredible losses on this part of the front, they are losing not only the lives of the same of yesterday's residential complex and now in german, from a private military campaign, wagner is dying there because the elite units and units of the russian occupation of the occupation army, paratroopers, special forces, well, everyone knows that they are in the urban development in an urbanized area is the most difficult type of combat and the assault units suffer insane losses, it is obvious that uh, that information and this information that reaches me in the form of insider information of direct participants in the battles not far from the solidar, it differs in a certain way from uh, the official information that is distributed in the including colonel cherevyki , and here i am more inclined to rehearse the position of the official spokespersons because they have , first of all, the situation from all areas of the front. they have the ability to summarize it and make

appropriate conclusions, because the vision of the situation only in these positions where my sources of information are located may not fully reflect the real picture, and in any case fierce battles are going on, i have no doubts about the courage and heroism of our soldiers , we would like even more ammunition in the after before artillery systems and armored vehicles and it was possible not only to stabilize the situation, even to throw the enemy as far as possible from our positions . our defense force is the destruction of the enemy's bed force. by the way, in the summary from the general staff, we see 790 e-e newly introduced russian soldiers, which is great news, and with 10 tanks and two dozen armored fighting vehicles , this indicates that the russians are increasingly starting to use armored vehicles because the weather conditions allow it, but

there are legends about the skill of ours against tankers, and accordingly, often russian tanks turn to powder very quickly, this is true . of the institute for the study of war, the conclusions may be different even now. they write that russia is trying to intercept the instincts of the ukrainian army, conducts mobilization , expands the work of the defense-industrial complex there, carries out the restructuring of its armed forces in order to carry out offensive operations there after a certain time, and of course it is possible ignore, but on the other hand, the enemy is still trying to adapt to the current realities. and what do you think russia will really have time to do in the next three months to somehow restrain our actions on the battlefield well, it seems to me that the biggest problem putin's army currently has is with

armored vehicles with weapons and ammunition for those weapons, because it has manpower, in fact, the program of combat coordination at the battalion level is now being completed, we can see how lively and high commission from the russian general staff in different training centers and napoleon both on the territory of the russian federation and on the territory of the republic of belarus, that is, they evaluate the readiness of the same units to perform tasks appointment, i.e., the nearest terms of the personal glass will be ready to perform the tasks for the appointment, but with regard to the defense of the equipment, the russians have certain difficulties here. and it is not for nothing that we see a few echelons that arrived on the territory of the republic of belarus with russian defense equipment, all this equipment is sent immediately to the repair enterprises of the republic of belarus in order to bring them into order to bring them to a combat-ready state, because after long years of storage at various bases and arsenals, it is now unable to perform the same

combat tasks, it is clear that now it is preparing options for transferring the military economy of the lviv federation to the appropriate mode of operation under such conditions when it will be necessary to provide a very large army, and the russians reveal that they are planning to significantly increase the number of the regular russian army in accordance with the army we need to provide it, we need weapons, military equipment , ammunition, we need to feed it, and we need to provide it to everyone, so the burden on the russian budget will grow as long as all this the history of the russian economy. i have very serious doubts, because the sanctions are working and the contraction in the russian economy is already showing signs. i think that you and i are on the threshold of such turbulent events and tectonic changes in the russian federation itself . feet of clay, this will be proof

that everything is not so good in the russian federation as a culture, according to the russian propagandists, the basis or explanation of these staff rotations that took place in the russian of the army, where gerasim was again nominated to the forefront, and there in the second echelon there is salyukov sorovekin, and who else? i would like to ask, first of all, about gerasim, because the assessments are quite ambiguous, if we also take into account the interview of the zaluzh magazine economist, he says that he actually studied the work of gerasimov. and the main work of gerasim is, as we know, the theory of hybrid warfare, where the combination of military and non-military measures to achieve strategic strength in military operations can be expected now with the appointment of gerasim again, any non-standard actions will be produced in the russian army, or will there actually be a scaling up of those approaches that were recently demonstrated by the wagner group there in its combat operations on the territory of ukraine, your assessments seem to me that a lot

will depend on the possibility independent gerasim to accept, because we understand that he is under pressure from vladimir putin, and he definitely seeks the gains of territorial military victories, and they are shorter terms, despite large losses among the personnel, first of all, of the russian army, here it is necessary to understand whether gerasime will independently be a figure who will determine the planning and organization of those or other types of military operations, because there is later, according to the assessment of general valery zaluzhny, who evaluates sufficiently highly and profession and experience and understanding of the situation and the level of command of the troops of general gerasimov, so i think that depending on that, we will see it. of course, if lieutenant colonel putin will try to rule in manual the regime of the russian army, despite all the parades and recommendations of the russian

generals, the chief of the general staff directly, the affairs of the russian army will be bad, because putin is not a sergeant at all, he is a good tactician, but in terms of managing large forces and means, planning the organization and ensuring large-scale military operations, in fact now the military campaign on the territory of the european continent has not been ongoing since the end of the second world war. i think that this task will be overwhelmed. and if gerasim will have the appropriate m-m opportunities and certain space for action. so here the ukrainian army may face quite serious problems. but again, it is a question of motivation. it is known and obvious that this aspect, the motivation, is not on the side of the russian army of occupation. vladislav wanted to ask you about the situation with belarus

, a fairly traditional question, but now aviation training is starting there on the 16th is there any risk to the ukrainian side of the russian and belarusian grouping, and how should we continue to evaluate this interaction between russia and belarus from the point of view of creating a joint grouping of troops there? we are witnessing the first stage of the full-scale russian offensive, as often as the missiles from the russian planes hit kiev and the same planes performed the task of exiting the base from the territory of the republic of belarus of course, this is quite an alarming signal, but here i am reassured to a certain extent by the message from the representative of the air force, colonel yuri ignat, who clearly states that the airborne assault is not an option for putin

's army at all, because the air defense system is ready to destroy all enemies, regardless of whether they are fighters or military transport and aircraft, because ours have a knack for speed and a desire to destroy the enemy in the air, and you have the appropriate resources and extinguished and the means for missile and bomb damage are a normal risk this is always the case, and the attack that took place last saturday in kyiv has given rise to a lot of speculation that the damage was caused by missiles from the s400 complex from the territory of the republic of belarus, or from the territory of the defense chikhur region. of course, there is a risk of escalation, but that that the ukrainian defense forces do not agree, and not only on the territory of the kyiv region , in particular on the territory of the zhytomyr and rivne, volyn regions - it is obvious that the enemy will have trouble if he dares to attack our land, and even more so if we look at the composition of the forces and means that are currently

12,000 mobs concentrated in the territory of the republic of belarus, this is not a strike group capable of carrying out such tasks vladyslav thank you for your time and for your professional comments, and i would like to remind our viewers that the filter of the express was a military analyst , reserve colonel vladyslav seleznyov and now we will move on to another topic, we are in touch with oleksandr los, the former head of the antonov concern, doctor of technical sciences, and now the captain of the armed forces, who takes care of the future directions of the development of the ukrainian military, oleksandr, i congratulate you congratulations to mr. serhiy glory to ukraine glory to the heroes and the first question is actually about the unexpected statement from the deputy minister of foreign affairs of ukraine and the former ambassador to germany andriy melnyk that he proposed that germany hand over tornado fighter jets to ukraine because they are being removed there in the

future from combat duty there will be replaced by the f-35 and actually that this is possible opens a new page in the relations between ukraine and germany suggestions, everything is fine because you can see the professional work of the intelligence agencies of the diplomatic agencies of ukraine, you know that today she resigned side, you know from this side the request of the deputy minister of foreign affairs, mr. melnyk, it is prospective

yes, perhaps these planes could be handed over because everyone understands that the replacement of the r30 with their f-35 will happen tomorrow and will not even happen the day after tomorrow, that is, we are talking about , in principle, considering such an approach that those planes that are removed from combat duty, like well, for example, here is the tornado. now we see it on the screen, or let it be f16 or let it be f-15, about which i always say that they should be transferred to ukraine for continued operation directly on them, the wrong word for operation on combat duty for the continuation of their lives, the combat units themselves, i would also like to say that this whole whirlwind of events coincided, of course, with the horror that happened last saturday, and of course that it pushed ukrainian politics in the first place. we are, of course, western partners in order to consider the issue of immediate reinforcement against the missile component in nature

against the air force of ukraine, for this we also need ground assets such as the patriot yes we hear you we hear you mr. oleksandr we hear you we hear. now we are re-establishing contact with oleksandr moose, and i will also mention that germany itself must now open the floodgates for the supply of leopard tanks. literally on the 20th, there will be a meeting in the city of defense in the format of rammstein, where it will be the first it's time to raise the question of whether, somehow, these are the proposals of the low-lying countries that are armed with leopard tanks in order to obtain germany's permission for their re-export to ukraine, and this initiative that concerns the aircraft itself, which we just talked about, could be another

with such an impetus to expand the range of cooperation, primarily from germany. although this country provided the supply of certain samples rather slowly, but now we are already talking about marders . it is necessary to strengthen the anti-missile anti-aircraft defense of ukraine, because the further it goes, the more difficult it will be to deal with precisely ballistic targets. chess, although i agree with your dalniem that it looks more like a screw-type cruise missile than uh ...
