[000:00:00;00] in fact, in this war, so far, russia has an advantage in the number of firearms and ammunition for them, but due to the professional work of art correctors, e.e. , air reconnaissance, it is possible to ensure parity, and in some places even an advantage . in this way, it is possible to effectively carry out counter-battery combat for the civilian population, which means to find out where the enemy's carcasses are located, because in the same way, and to destroy the equipment and personnel, and not i believe that regarding the use of unmanned aerial vehicles, including household ones, you say that the russians began to actively use them, or did we begin to use bpls

of a similar class less, please no, on the contrary, on the contrary , they began to use even more in some places , well, it is not a secret for anyone if you analyze all the wars we start a war with one disarmament, and we end it if the war lasts longer than one year, we end it with completely different weapons and technical means, now in ukraine as part of the drone army project this direction is extremely actively developing with various types of drones, it is idra, non-reconnaissance medium and long-range scouts, it also works fp-v drones like kamikaze are nuclear bombers are slowly getting fed up with this, there are specifics and problems but we will not talk about it for that so that there is definitely a mystery for against but nevertheless , i have to note that such detailed devices are already coming close and in the near future the front line will be saturated with them as for drones that cannot be

purchased by the ministry of civil defense purpose they appear military at the expense of volunteers to my many thanks to the fact that, for example, we are leaving age 3 this is so far , that is, wars for conducting reconnaissance of the medium radius of action of the near-near depending on the professionalism of the pilot and weather conditions due to which it is possible to effectively control the enemy and control the fire artillery therefore, it is not related to the fact that we have become less, or vice versa, and the front line is saturated, it is brought up by the fact that the enemy understands that it is effective and therefore tries sort out the model of behavior and language techniques used by the armed forces of ukraine . thank you , mr. yuriy, for your service for inclusion.

with a clear understanding of what is happening, they inform us of the most important thing. we thank them for this and appreciate it very much, but now we are going south again to communicate with the studio nataliya gumenyuk, head of the press center of the security forces and defense of the operational command south ms. natalya we congratulate you glory to ukraine glory to the heroes i congratulate you the enemy from the left bank continues to shell the de-occupied areas of the kherson region incendiary ammunition in general quite dense artillery fire as i understand it counter battery combat with the only difference that the defense force of ukraine does not shoot at random and they are not trying to destroy the settlements on the left bank and kill as many people as possible , please tell us about the consequences of the latest shelling , maybe somehow the dynamics are changing and their tactics on the part of the enemy. unfortunately, the tactics of the terrorists remain constant. they really attack indiscriminately, although they are most likely

focused on the social infrastructure , because their main task now is to terrorize the civilian population, convincing them that they were better off under russian peace, and this tactic does not work despite the fact that people suffer from shelling and die. unfortunately, the shelling of kherson , in particular, hitting a hospital, is an absolute example of such a terrorist crime, and the use of incendiary shells is also a prohibited tactic of waging war, and it is also the basis for initiating a criminal case and collecting materials so that everything is clear for a potential tribunal. but the most important thing is that people understand that even if they suffer from shelling, this only indicates that they are dealing not with callers, not

with defenders, but with the real majesty of the same russian of peace, our work on the left bank, in turn, is and has results. it is quite powerful. unfortunately, it is complicated for intelligence precisely because the enemy is mastering police methods of influencing the civilian population they have become more frequent with yard codes, they search for ukrainian-minded population, we try not to endanger those who support us, those who help us, in particular, this draft letter, therefore , in a certain way, we cannot receive intelligence information at the moment, but it will definitely not work a little later, so remember i wonder what is happening on the left bank of the kherson region in the occupied territories, what is the humanitarian situation with the local population , the humanitarian situation is quite difficult, the enemy

is constantly driving people out of their homes is trying to resettle its water sinks, disperse the personnel, take people to an unknown direction and try to resettle in some boarding houses that have not been arranged , not requested, that are not yet healed, including the heating system , i.e. they are trying to stage such an evacuation, in fact, gathering people , the civilian population, where it is more profitable for them to cover it is the civilian population that is why very powerful work is currently being done to try to evacuate at least small groups of these people, but it is not public because the enemy works against ms. natalya in this work, and does their contingent on the left bank change somehow, or is there some kind of rotation? hmm

, we know that there are a lot of freshly demobilized russians, but how trained are of course regular troops? there are such trends, currently such trends are not observed in the rooster because they have a lot of the same work that you allude to in the east and they are not ready at the moment to introduce such active activity here in the south to concentrate their forces, despite the fact that they are numerically more, we are really aware of this and they are pulling up little by little, pulling up the same not very fresh, but mobilization resource, technically they are not not provided , that is, it is just a living force that they are ready to put forward as a barricade on the front line there

there is no harm. as they say, they are still hurting, but in fact they are putting them in danger . the destroyed bridge that was of strategic importance for the logistics of the russian army and these russian military correspondents reported that ukrainian aimers allegedly hit this bridge and that a military convoy was passing there during the impact of this bridge , which is not confirmed by ukrainian officials. what do you know about this impression and what is happening there now in melitopol and around it, i ask, and so far this is all within the framework of the extraordinary impression of the occupiers themselves , since the demonization of hamers

continues in them, they believe that it is really a ubiquitous weapon that can strike, but let me remind you that in the conditions of a hybrid war, even such apparently frank publications can testify to the manipulation of the enemy's consciousness and information when they try to convince us that their forces are affected and they do not have a certain resource. we continue to monitor the movement we continue to monitor their intentions , including logistical ones, and keep them under fire control, but still, i advise you to rely on the official reports of the ukrainian military and the general staff , so far there is no confirmation of this fact. natalya and what about the next attempts of the enemy, uh, something about pinning uh, uh, on the territory of the zaporizhzhia region, maybe in the area of ​​the orihiv community, uh, do they manage to do something in small groups, the last information

we have is that they tried and got their teeth in and actually left is this their regular work at the moment? indeed, a few weeks before that, they tried to do it, and from the impression they got there, they now strengthened their defense, that is, they realized that it is somehow calmer in the trench than somewhere to move forward, because even when the numerical advantage is the force that is imposed on them and in which they are convinced, they could not achieve any success in any of the directions, although they tested them in different ways, and at the moment their forces are gathered in order to hold the defense and fix the front line in the south because to disperse efforts against the background of what is happening in them in the east

, they are not ready even in the south direction. well, and about the water area from the black sea , please tell us what is going on with the increase in ships and the number of calibers armed with these ships in the water area, please, what is the current threat of the naval group continues to be reformatted and against the background of the fact that the other day it reached 15-16 units, currently there are 11 of them left, the storm is affecting certain units , including support vessels that need to enter the base points, but the number of the ship's crew of missile carriers remained constant. that is, there are three of them, two surface ones, one underwater general hall of calibers , with such a schedule, can reach 20 units . moreover, i will remind you that yesterday during the day and this

morning already, the enemy terrorized the south of ukraine missile danger, that is, the relevant observations of the movement of enemy forces testified to the preparation for certain attacks , but they did not take place, although air defense was working in the kherson region, in particular , those ground weapons forces that can be sent there are also used in addition , well, recently ukrainian ambassador to germany , former ambassador andrii melnyk offered in germany to transfer one of its six submarines to the ukrainian army, then the ambassador said: we will free the black sea from russian surface and underwater carriers of calibers, is this news being discussed at all in the higher echelons of the ukrainian military military authorities and what do you personally think about this

idea ? we have we need weapons we need equipment that will help and that will strengthen all our efforts that we already have in the fight against such a powerful and armed enemy yes thank you for joining us thank you for encouraging our foreign partners but at the moment it is the physical embodiment of such a large project. well, it is not entirely clear and not entirely appropriate, although if something appears in our country, we will definitely apply it against it. finally, i cannot help but ask briefly what we are allowed to hear from you. we will speak kinbursk and crimean the general situation of the peninsula, at least the general situation remains quite complicated, because indeed there are occupying forces on that peninsula. although not everywhere

, they can establish a stationary position, as somehow on the kinburn spit, in particular by pulling there rocket salvo systems fired during the night, this night they fired as expected, they fired about fifty rockets , fortunately, there were no casualties, but there is significant destruction that they cause. an example of terrorism, but our work on the firing position was quite effective. right now they are engaged in reconnaissance of the final results, which i think we will soon be able to report and just like that, through the same overland corridor that connects the left bank kherson region with the kinburn spit, and there is also

an overland corridor and no tanks are expected to arrive from our partners, so far information has been received that the abrams should be expected no earlier than the end of 2023 so that at the beginning of 2024, i hope that this situation can be somehow intensified and , to put it mildly, but in any case, the provision of e-e from the united states of abrams is one of the main news of the past week, which was announced joe biden, on january 24, ukraine will receive a total of 31 vehicles, and this is the equivalent of one battalion, but when will the abrams be able to help the defense forces liberate our territories, let's see the story of the m1 abrams , the main battle tank of the third generation produced by the united states, it was named after general creighton abrams, the former chief of staff of the army

the decision of the united states and the commander of the armed forces in vietnam on january 24 to send tanks to ukraine was all the more unexpected because the white house on the eve of the public announcement of the impossibility deliver abrams to the european theater of war and this despite the demands of kyiv and public pressure from berlin, because germany was also under pressure to send leopards to ukraine, but there is a huge gap between the decision and actual deliveries, most likely the tanks will be purchased through the fund known as the security promotion initiative for ukraine usa, this means that joe biden's administration will order equipment from the industry and not transfer the existing stockpiles of weapons to another mechanism to buy these machines from allies who, as the usa exploits, will repair them and then will be sent overseas, the process may last months and even years, representatives of the united states have repeatedly stated that abrams is difficult to maintain, so it will take a long time to train the ukrainians to operate it. and it also runs on aviation fuel, which makes it

a bad choice for this phase of the war, so according to political scientists, the decision of the white house about the transfer of the abrams faster, the encouragement for berlin to supply its leopards and the support of the allies, we will discuss this issue with serhiy zgurets, director of the information consulting company defekt express as always 8:45 a.m. he is in touch with our studio good afternoon mr. serhiy i congratulate you that you have heard something new from this story serhii shynkar thank you for him will we really see our abrams at the end of this year in the best case or at all we will see them in ukraine please, well, we will be elected in ukraine, we will see, really, it will definitely be a question of time, now there is a question, uh, delivery terms, uh , and the spokesperson of the pentagon is literally there on wednesday , oh, oh, the calendar commented, they really

say that the delivery will take a certain time and they are talking about months, in fact, at best, we will leave sometime at the end of this year. if we follow the process of manufacturing these tanks or the pretexts of the ministry of defense of the united states, there is a possibility that the titankas that are manufactured for poland may be transferred, but this must be agreed with the poles, so that in any case, the arrival of the abrams well, it will be much later than the delivery of the leopards p serhiu eh , interesting events have been taking place in iran in recent days, the ukrainians immediately perked up, maybe we are talking about the military power of this my friend, as they say in the russian federation, which regularly provides them with shahedis, which we are already at a hundred percent level here recently, we have been shooting down with air defense forces , but ballistic missiles as a threat that hangs

in the air, well, this is still a relevant question , according to your information, according to your analytics, is it really you were early, some production facilities could have been affected, and so far, i will remind you, no one has taken responsibility for this , the events that happened last night were connected with the striking of low objects on the territory of the mornings, in particular, was the publication of a video about the impression of the vysmikhanni enterprises, where, in particular, the concentrated capacities for the production of these free complexes, e.e. , shahit, but then there were, e. enterprises because, as we understand, drones have been used so far, not of such power or missile weapons that

can really destroy production facilities that are located, including underground, that uses wounds to develop its defense industry, if the goal is to see a series of videos, then we really see that usually all these power drones are demonstrated in such closed warehouses, and the rest of the strikes that were inflicted on the frame, we now see on the video , caused significant losses there for certain infrastructure projects of iran, but i think it will not fundamentally affect the production of shaheeds, although we understand that now our defense capabilities allow us to shoot down these shaheeds and the main risk that can to be from the morning the supply of these ballistic missiles, but as we can see, there were statements by the american and special services that hinted that israel and america are actively working together

to limit the supply of these political missiles, and in fact, if this suddenly happens , it will be such a significant step for moreover, we wish ukraine had finally received long-range systems of the impression, in particular, the same attacks , because they are already the red line that was surely conveyed there to all the participants in this confrontation, that in the case of the supply of ballistic missiles missiles, ukraine will receive such an opportunity to fight the launchers of these complexes on the territory of the russian federation. moreover, the president of ukraine zelenskyi has repeatedly said before yesterday's address that the partner there should be the time of delivery of significant powerful weapons systems. fighter jets, sir, to strya well, our colleague andriy tsaplienko reports that there were also explosions yesterday evening in the iranian

city of ulmamal on the border of russia and syria and in the city of mehat, i understand, or kemal, maybe not even an iranian city, and he said that the explosion was at the headquarters of the guardians of the islamic revolution. well, a number of media outlets, in particular , reuters, seem to be devoted, so the post reported that their information about the strikes could to be involved, iran is israel. i apologize that it is at all fundamental to know now, does everyone already know who carried out these strikes and to what extent they can involve israel in providing some weapons to more help from israel for ukraine, please well, actually we understand that israel and iran are long-standing antagonists and actually israel and israel's special services will introduce military actions of simple tourist groups that are actually

financed by cancer, so that this confrontation is in the format of which we fully understand how it unfolds in the interests of ukraine, well, we saw the statement of one of the ambassadors of israel in one of the countries, who claimed that we really provide assistance to ukraine, but we do not do it loudly and publicly, and i hope that actions will be intensified soon can really cause the expansion of the aid format from the side of israel in ukraine, but we will not even know about it for a certain period of time , because israel itself, as it says, takes care of the security of its e-e communities there and in the russian federation and in other countries, and that is why it is actually like this has become israel's policy regarding military aid, and i think that in this sense, rather, we can get certain samples of technology from israel through other

countries, in particular through the united states, where this format of israel's participation will actually be blurred and imperceptible until a certain time, mr. sergey. it seems to me that we have concentrated too much in the informational sense on the technology provided to us by our partners . let's talk about our native country. just the other day , the minister of defense oleksiy reznikov amused us with the news that ukraine is returning to the production of bohdan bohdanka self-propelled guns - this is our machine based on another juice together, if i'm not mistaken, the developer was the kramatorsk machine tool plant at one time, and unfortunately , we didn't have time to make an invasion up to hmm such a certain number of bohdana yes, but bohdana showed herself well, as i understand it, in the operation on snake island, i don’t know how much it was a decisive shot, but she

was involved, but she was involved, please tell mr. sergey how important this story is, what is this history and well , how is it in the martial law regime? of our own defense capabilities in this segment, we actually have several directions, these are high-precision means of impression, in particular, with missiles, there are no neptune stugna corsairs that destroy enemy armored vehicles, there are separate directions with artillery, there is actually bohdana itself. well, the development of armored vehicles is primarily connected with the production of bt with the repair

of the btrivka, three components remain extremely important, if we are talking about bohdan's acs, then this project was indeed of an interesting standard, and actually this sauna was, well, developed as a promising project of ister kramatorsk factory and other enterprises that were involved in this project. but before the war or before the active phase of the war, progress was slow enough because the tests were slow there. range we need we need now we are talking about the fact that there are different ends that serial production is possible is quite optimistic, but this means that there are a number of problems that we are probably solving at the current stage because it is old

the kramatorsk enterprise is in a difficult situation, this means that we moved the production of gun barrels to this system to another place or started to implement it with foreign partners because the low level of this technology can actually be duplicated by our e-e partners and i hope that this is the most optimal way, i say so, in the countries of eastern europe where the production of a new e-e platform is concerned, it is possible that this platform is of czech production, because the new sample is different when it is different from the first platform that was in based on the fact that it was used precisely. and the question of creating a uh and manufacturing a gun and manufacturing a charging unit, i actually thought that it is currently being scaled up at one of the eastern european enterprises because it is the safest option at the current stage. the number of such systems. of course, we need a lot if we got

the first dozen of these bohdan himself, we will finalize the technology and manufacture and application of this weapons system, of course we now have a whole fleet of the most modern samples of similar systems from the united states in france now sweden will appear. that is, we already have the top-level levels of these weapons systems, and we will have the opportunity to see how exactly we need to improve our system or have a competitive model that can go into perspective for equipping the ukrainian army together with foreign models . please, what do you know about the results of the last meeting of the supreme commander-in-chief, what issues were discussed there, what decisions were made , what is known, please repeat the message that came yesterday from the supreme commander

what was discussed, the scenarios of possible scenarios of hostilities for the current year, the issue of providing our armed forces with ammunition, and actually this is very closely intertwined, as i think, from real situations , which was reflected in the world today , the inclusion of war, where it is said that in fact it is a matter of procrastination with the supply of western weapons affected the pace of our counteroffensive actions that we so expected in the winter. that is, we understand that now these stages are connected that we are discussing tanks will arrive in the best case in two or three months , the issue of a sufficient number of aircrafts of the airmen is something that was raised much earlier.

this new bloody meat grinder, where actually we are forced to receive a significant amount of steel, the west will be delayed by the supply of weapons, then we oh- oh-oh we will be forced to postpone those offensive actions that we desperately needed or to receive instivs on the battlefield and i think that this was actually discussed and the extensions of the supreme commander's corner because the publication of the zaluzhny was actually already the first three guards all the experts heard that we have the possibility of force we don't have the means this is just putting on the current reality serhiy zgurets was in touch with us now a nationwide moment of silence will be observed a minute of silence in memory of the ukrainian
