there will be events for them and they manage to get ahead of them, and this kind of behavior just exposes them to certain areas, we understand that the moral and psychological state of the commander, even the commander, is not very stable, where they are nervous and try to get ahead of the events. well, yesterday we had the epiphany and this day is traditionally ours in the last years there, before the war, it was associated with squinting, a large number of large numbers of people simply, well , it is not to the church of trust, there is no relationship . divers, and how did the law enforcement agencies react to such facts? i understand that swimming in the sea in odesa and mykolaiv is prohibited both in summer and in winter. that is, it is an administrative offense. what consequences did yesterday have in this regard? and so we spent powerful preliminary work

on what to inform the population to remind, including the stormy weather that brought out the mines very powerfully. and uh, colorfully, let's say so to the coast, in particular, odesa and mykolaiv oblasts , at the beginning of the new year, they were also observed and they were detonated in a controlled manner, but there were those who brought them and then carried them into the sea again, when we couldn’t, we didn’t have time to destroy them in a controlled manner, so the threat remains, stormy weather also remains, and by the way, it is dangerous not only because of the presence of mines there, but also simply because of the peculiarities of -e currents, which in this season are quite powerful when such winds and such waves are present, that is why all activities within the framework of the epiphany were organized in specially designated places,

not in the sea, not in open bodies of water, which are dangerous, but where it could happen under the control of the emergency services of mrs. natalya, what is happening now on the kinburn spit, please tell us in more detail, this is the only occupied part of the mykolaiv region. if we talk about its purpose in peacetime, then it was a place of rest. barbecues and so on. well, at the moment we are working it out in the sea in the mode of a sea operation because we have to fry what the enemy brings there. we currently have the results, we reported yesterday about the destruction of the group that was placed there to conduct fire, this vehicle equipment and personnel, and this night we also have

results there up to six units of personnel and two units and armored vehicle vehicles were also fried, so our combat work continues, they and them under typical stubbornness are moving there where will they be fried? we will continue to destroy them, unfortunately, they managed to shell the ochakiv community twice yesterday , but fortunately there were no casualties. humenyuk, the head of the press center of the security and defense forces of the operational command south , was with us on the air. we are with us a people's deputy of ukraine, the secretary of the verkhovna rada committee on national security, defense and intelligence, a colonel, i have a meeting, we welcome you, mr. colonel, good morning. good morning . today is the day of honoring the defense to the memory of the defenders of the airport itself. i think

it was one of the first such that russia had to conclude that ukraine would not surrender, so i would like to congratulate all those guys who passed donetsk the airport eh or eh ensured the actions that took place there in the environment outside the environment and to wish i know her, and despite the fact that there was fighting there , i looked at how our army works. and then these were the first steps when they were fighting, mobilized, before that, the army was fighting regularly. and then i got to the airport with the boys when i was mobilized i saw that the ukrainian people

will not surrender if the ukrainian people have high moral and business qualities and what they showed there, civilians, in fact, it was really heroism. therefore, i say this again that russia is one of those that russia had to draw conclusions before planning a major invasion that ukraine will not just give up and give up its sovereignty mr. roman well, let's go to the profile closer to your secretary of the committee on national security and defense and intelligence please tell me your our attitude yesterday on the air of one of the tv channels, secretary of the national security council, oleksiy danilov well, returning to this unfortunately, the tragedy in brovary that happened, i would not like to dance there on the bones well, but there are several questions that arise after this disaster, yes, danilo , yesterday on safety on safety the top leadership of the country, oleksiy danilov, said yesterday that the helicopter with the minister of internal affairs, his first deputy and the state secretary, and

there were also security guards and seven other people on board flew, well, obviously not to zero. maybe he should have flown further to zero, but the first place was poltava he said that at 8:07 a.m. he received or sent a text message to the monastery. the city of poltava should have been the last one, or should it have been to poltava in your opinion, the road is 300 km, it is normal to fly there by helicopter, and in general, what was the ultimate goal of this business trip, how safe is it in the conditions of war for the top management of the security agency to travel together on one helicopters on the same board, please. and we have already seen that it is dangerous to be the heads of all the departments in one department, and since i know there is a protocol that prohibits doing this, but i do not know what the situation was

precisely because few people speak er, we still understand the situation, several days have passed and it is possible that there was such a business trip that required being there and flying on a helicopter, well, a helicopter, first of all, the speed that allows you to arrive quickly enough, for example, to poltava, then to return from poltava in order to respond from kyiv to other questions, so i think there was a reason for this, but the fact that everyone was in the same helicopter is, of course, i think at least a violation of protocol, and you see, if it led to such a great tragedy, mr. roman, we included bohdana drach, a member of the brovary city council. well, she told such sensational information, well, for the first time it was checked, there could be children, and family members of one of the officials, and well, indirectly. at first, when the accident

happened, they really said why, at least the eyewitnesses said that there could be children on board and at first, the number of children was given as three children who died, then it turned out that only one child, well, fortunately, not three, but one died. we can be sure that there were no children on board of the families of a high-ranking official, one of the heads of the ministry of internal affairs, please, i talked to people with those who i was at the scene of the event. well, they came to the scene of the event then, and with those who, let's say, are close to the president's office, no one told me that there were children there. i will not say whether they are or not, but how much do you understand him that we conduct these conversations from time to time, communicating with each other, understanding that yesterday we even discussed with some people what happened there, we have specialists, even in the committee, those who, er, flew in helicopters, er, even about the children . i didn't hear

about the children at the beginning, yes, there was indeed information about that, but then they said that they were children, unfortunately, from kindergarten and that there were no passengers, but this is the information that i have, mr. roman. and what you say, you discussed in the committee with people who flew directly, what do they say could be the cause of the accident? well, and most importantly, why the helicopter does not understand that this is allowed by the rules of flight safety, why did the helicopter still fly over residential areas where there are tall buildings. there was fog , that is, visibility was low, but nevertheless over breweries which, in principle , was this route laid out in a large city of the kyiv region, what do your entourage specialists say? a conversation between my own, i will say that here it is worth waiting first for the experts to take a look, why exactly did the helicopter fall, why

was it flying there, and well, i don't think it is forbidden to fly, as far as i know, you can fly over cities, but the issue of fog is the issue of the engine the question is, what were the rifles, what were the rifles that were twisted, and they were repelled, but that should be given by the experts. i would not like to go around now and say why it happened, a great tragedy happened, it is clear and clear that it is necessary to deal with this, because not only did they die adults are under threat the civilian population was also caught, which was directly uh, the children, i mean, were in kindergarten in order to prevent the future. there is a war going on in us and so many people of uh level, but such tragedies. i think that they should be prevented. what is happening in our country now on the front, according to your assessment, in particular, in the south, to what extent is the group increasing there? and what do you think the russians are preparing for, what are they

leading, and well, if the south begins in kherson, the group there is not increasing there, they are only increasing the number of shelling of our civilian population of our cities to the dnipro and, well, directly to the city of kherson itself. there is also an artillery duel on the dnipro. our defenders are engaged in preventive detection. including in the ochakov ochakov community, as for the zaporizhzhia direction, the enemy there periodically conducts active actions there at the tactical people's and water level, trying to squeeze us out of some territories from some kind of nose in order to take up the defense well, i am sure that in order to create the conditions for a further offensive in the future, that they are accumulating both in the eastern

direction and in the southern direction, this is logical, we understand that everyone and everyone understands that the enemy who left the right bank of the dnieper is a group of more than 30,000, as they said at the time, according to various data, some 35 , some 30, there are more than 5,000 units of e-e armored vehicles. we understood that they would not go to permanent deployment points somewhere and won't end the war, they were withdrawn specifically because they didn't see uh to kherson in the kherson region, they suffered constantly, they constantly suffered losses, they constantly didn't see prospects for a further offensive because uh, the defense forces made it so that they wouldn't be able to, they scattered strong troops, mobilized to approach they couldn't. that's why they decided that it was possible to develop an offensive. and bakhmut soledar, er, zaporizhzhia, they needed groups, they removed them and threw them there. therefore, it's all logical

. they then concentrate these forces in other directions, and now we are observing it. and how do you assess their flows to mobilization and the possibility of mobilizing what they claim ? well, they are several times higher than the number that was at the beginning. and what do we we can answer. in this regard, they can demobilize, this is not a problem, of course the question will be how to dress them, arm them, well, there is a machine gun for everyone in the russian federation, we know that during the soviet times, it was done very there are many, and they still have enough weapons, and just as we are going through the times of the second world war and even the first world war, which shoots which can be put in the hands, but the numbers they call, i think it will not come to that, they will have enough weapons for that to arm their troops, but in matters of

technology, to what extent they are capable of technology, well, once again, we do not forget that russia is a resource country, and now, in fact, when we talk about what is there about our counteroffensive, we must understand that we not yet completely stopped the russian federation, what is uh, what is counterintelligence, i.e., stopping the enemy on the line of advance means inflicting heavy losses, at the same time, this is holding those positions that we occupy and uh, creating conditions for a further offensive, but in some directions, we are only at the first point, this is uh, we are stopping the enemy in this, we have to understand that we still have a lot of work ahead of us before the counteroffensive, to teach how to stop him so that he does not advance further, uh, in all directions, as for ours, we are reacting, but we are also mobilizing, we see everyone during the day, the military commissars go there with summonses or

catch or er invite we see that in the spring we will have a novel window of opportunity for this counteroffensive. it is very difficult to say in the time frame of our counteroffensive, because we must understand that we must have the forces and means for the counterattack, the operatives are constantly pulling up the troops and it will depend on those forces and what means do we have in us we cannot carry out a counteroffensive for the sake of a counteroffensive and at the same time not win a victory for us if the counteroffensive we have to concentrate and see the depth even though it is 100 km there if it is the direction of melitopol, then it should be at this

depth that is, we need quite serious forces and means for this, because russia now outnumbers us in terms of resources and even outnumbers us in artillery, and in order to counterattack, we need at least more force and means, at least the same, uh, in terms of technology. that’s why we we have to understand that we need to create the reserves that we are creating and talk about windows of opportunity. well, it is difficult to say that we are building up and the russian federation is building up, because from time to time, what kind of counter-next is the preparation for the future, we must understand that this will logically lead only to more victims, because on both sides, ours and the russian federation, a greater density of troops will be used, which will be there , in order to advance, it will be necessary to increase the number of the enemy, and the enemy will need to, let's say, kill more our soldiers and in order to restrain that time is playing on the fact that there will be greater losses of

intelligence, sbu colonel serhiy zgurets, our military expert, director of the information consulting company defense express. let's continue the whole topic of this window of opportunity, said chamomile, the further the counteroffensive drags on, the more victims there will be on both sides, what do you think about when ukraine can well may try to win back even more , liberate even more territory in the south and east, in what time frame can we do this, please? well, we are now trying to draw a conclusion with the limitations of the given information about the quality of our e-e reserves and the dynamics of the receipt of foreign military aid in any - in any case, the

ukrainian political and military leadership said that the next three months will be the most decisive. that is, we are still going to the video in the format of preparing for hostilities and activation hostilities, well, in general, a ton of preparation of reserves, this is actually the beginning of spring, but the current hostilities, as we can see, continue in all areas of the main in the east, the situation is quite difficult, so in any case, we are talking about the fact that in the event of the arrival of military aid from the usa and other countries in the near future, with the beginning of spring, we can talk about active offensive actions, although we really understand that the enemy is also now trying to increase the number of personnel at all levels

of the front that really complicates the advance of our troops, so in any case now, well, both sides kostenko is absolutely right to try to prepare the maximum number of reserves, depending on what capabilities the parties have. sergey, how do you evaluate the announced new package from the united states of america uh, there are no tanks there, but what there is, how much it will practically help us now . well, when it does, it is sufficiently balanced and the package is demonstrative. it just solves three three directions of our needs, it is anti-aircraft defense, if we take into account missiles up to nasams and eight avenger complexes - these are actually such mobile air defense systems, earlier we received four such launchers. now there are eight more of them using sting missiles and they are needed to cover units that carry out e-e offensive actions, a very significant armored

fist in this package we are talking about there 59 bradley infantry fighting vehicles 100 armored personnel carriers 20 strikers with mortar installations a significant amount of other armored vehicles so this is actually a significant contribution to the preparation of our reserves and this is very revealing. well, the third component is actually a significant number of professions and artillery of 155 mm and 105 mm caliber, as well as small arms and anti-tank weapons, a significant number of guided missiles, all of this. and actually , if combined in the kupits, it is really consistent with training of the armed forces to the creation of powerful reserves, more precisely , you have not even created the human resources for the supply of the necessary means, the permission of the defense

to those reserves that actually already exist, and actually this is an essential prerequisite for carrying out those offensive operations that we are so much expecting. and actually we understand that when there are no a abrams there yet, but we understand the not only discussion that is currently being heard there involving poland and germany regarding the fact that the dynamics with the supply of leopards has changed. i think that as rammstein will be another push to get tanks as well. although i will say about the tanks that now we actually started to receive those tanks that were previously announced as part of the cooperation of the united states in the czech republic and the netherlands. it says there are simply 20 modernized tanks t-72 and he already writes that tanks have started to arrive, plus there are 30 more tanks from an african country, 30 tanks, so in fact, if we are talking about strengthening tank capabilities, then this process has already started in parallel with this statement that he

made. the main thing is that we need 300 tanks if we let's count the number of t-72 plus, relatively speaking, we expect that there will be about 100 leopard tanks after the meeting in rammstein, if this coalition is promoted, that is, in fact, we will be close to the number that i discussed with luzhnyi about tanks, about tanks, yes only about bmps, if we remember that sweden announced about 50 modern bmps 90 - these are cool machines, that germany has 40 cruisers and now 60 bradleys, then in fact we are already talking about more than 100 or 150 modern bmps and all that in fact, a significant advance compared to the times we talked about earlier, that we are writing to get tanks and heavy infantry fighting vehicles, this process has already progressed significantly, and nasser, and the russians are also preparing for hostilities, preparing new tanks, but british

intelligence reported about that of aroma 14 they dropped t-14s, which are called aromata, they dropped them on training grounds closer to the borders of ukraine. i understand that in rostov oblast , they showed our british colleagues satellite photos of what kind of tank it was, it was developed for 11 years and made. how many of them are in the russian army and how much can this t- 14 armata to change the situation on the battlefield, in your opinion, i ’m asking you, uh, actually, there is an armata , the situation on the battlefield will not change. up to 8 units were made there, if you are not mistaken, this tank used to stand there na na na na on the parade it was affected, it really has been developed for 11 years, but we understand that even the latest samples are also where the t-9 e-e breakthrough is not modern, more modernized russian tank and are destroyed

by conventional rpgs as we recently saw and uh-e aroma is the same drinker of the russian defense industry as these church missiles there underwater nuclear torpedo poseidon and so on and in this sense i say one sample or even five samples of new ones appear on the actual situation on the battlefield does not change, that is why we say that when they say that we want to get foreign tanks there, we are talking about hundreds of models, that is, the situation here is completely different, and the armata tank. i think that in fact they are frankly afraid to release it on the battlefield understanding what effect it will have when it is destroyed, well, in particular, by the same uh-uh leclerc there or another uh-uh existing protentium means that actually won’t help mr.

sergey survive in this tank machine on the battlefield today rammstein will be i announce that it will be kind of hot there, and we should expect something like that, something that has not been announced yet. it may really be because, in fact, we understand that the issue of rammstein is the actual combination of not just the number of weapons, the combination of this number of weapons in accordance with the plans that it has to carry out the armed forces on the battlefield, that is why they saved, as we remember, the meeting between zulzhny and milli, where there was such a close communication, then we saw an interesting publication in the new york times, where it was said that the next offensive is actually being agreed upon of the ukrainian army, where the plan and needs are agreed upon, but i think that this process started much earlier. and actually then the meeting in rammstein will ensure the distribution of functions among other countries, because we see that the block of these long-range self-propelled guns relies there on

sweden, that is, those countries which e-e deals with artillery areas, when we talk about the entire basic package, it is actually carried out by the united states, when we talk about artillery there, about ammunition and about bradley, the issue of air defense as well joins other countries and, in fact, i think that the question is even to pass air samples of the same ones that we expect from france and italy, which can be carried out against the barista on defense, can also be declared in this package according to the results of the rammstein meeting, so actually it is for in terms of many parameters , even with regard to the spirit of this event and the expectation, it is very grandiose, and even those packages that have already been announced, they say that there is really a crackdown in europe, that they understand that in the approaches to the provision of ukraine the fact that the front line of defense passes

through the territory of ukraine to this day and the faster the help to ukraine is, the less problems will arise for the european armies themselves to counter the russian aggression there, for sure sergey, well, our colleagues from to kyiv , the director of the cia, william burns, had a series of meetings with the top military and political leaders. well, here's what he said. well, they write where the washington post burst emphasized the island acutely, those moments are a quote on the battlefield and admitted that at some point it will be more difficult to get help, the publication told an american source, i am asking for a speech and in general the purpose of this visit . what information could we get from the head of the cia, it is about a forecast of the situation regarding the preparation of the russian

federation for the next stage of hostilities , possible risks there, what was actually the same as at the stage of the first stage, again on february 4, when american structures warned ukraine, perhaps now there is new information that allows us to ensure more effective planning of our defensive offensive actions. and the question of political changes may have also affected the format of this visit, we understand that the dynamics surrounding the assistance of the united states for ukraine, it is quite clear, it is stable, but it is possible that due to long-term prospects , certain nuances may arise. it is difficult for me to say now what exactly these nuances might be, but so far all statements from the united states are not there the united states and britain are talking about the fact that ukraine will be given as much aid as

it is needed and even more. now , on the contrary, it is about a change in approaches, because if we see there, we will consider other statements , then actually this is already a question of how to put pressure, relatively speaking to crimea or strikes on crimea in order to put russia in front of the fact that this is a territory that belongs to ukraine and actually there are no restrictions on the use of our weapons against crimea, we just need to increase these potentials and maybe even in general must go from the fact that we are at the stage of receiving more help from other, more powerful models that probably require, let's say, preliminary talks between ukraine and the united states in order to ensure this actual breakthrough on the battlefield in a short period of time, and not to drag it out for a long time because it for a long time, in fact, not in europe, nor in our country, it does not suit us serhiy,

thank you for the analysis of the current situation serhii zgurets, director of the information consultancy of the defense express company, a military expert, it is almost nine o'clock on the clock this means that we will honor the memory of all ukrainians who died at the hands of the russians during the full-scale invasion since the beginning of the military aggression, and in brovary mourning events are also ongoing, this is the third day of mourning , a helicopter fell there, where the leadership of the ministry of internal affairs and one child died to the kindergarten and these people, we will also remember a bright memory, condolences to all families, a moment of silence in ukraine
