[000:00:00;00] under ugledar a significant amount of enemy equipment and personnel of elite units of the marines, according to what is now with the enemy with his personnel under bakhmut, according to the information that we have to help the wagnerites who, uh, so flaunted their successful offensive actions and fought in the style of the king of the pyre when any of their small achievements turned into huge sacrifices , we see that russian military personnel have already arrived, that is , the number of artillery and aviation has increased, and we can see now that in our direction, where we hold positions, it is obvious that either the paratroopers or the special forces are working, because they are trying to enter the city quite competently, that is, i understand that their task is now, they have already entered somewhere

partially to the eastern outskirts of the city, they are pushing from the north and now they are from the south, from the side of ivanivsk, that's where the famous plane is, which used to be a place of meeting and taking pictures in bakhmut, somewhere they have such a strategic goal to go out and try to cut the kostyantynivka bakhmut route, which is no longer effective, i'll mention it again literally in a day such targeted massive infantry attacks happen if they are conjured, the artillery starts working and so from day to day this is just as if you show approximately not far from the area where they continue to be afraid of interestingly equipped and russian ones, so has our inequality decreased or on the contrary, it has increased even more , the enemy has and still has approximately n a fourfold advantage in artillery we hear how his

artillery works, but our artillery works louder every weapon requires a serious attitude and a serious approach i work, for example, on the american mk-19 grenade launcher and finally in bakhmuti will already lead me to the american brands of the m113 transporter, that is, for the first time in this war , we are not driving bandera-mobiles , well, this is temporary. shoots further, the unit has a greater killing power, that is, part of the supplies that the allies give us , they usually make our lives easier , save the lives of soldiers. shaft and this is the most impressive thing in this war that russia does not put a person in anything at all, they can at what stages they began to save equipment, their infantry was already marching without support without escort tanks armored personnel carriers

and but they are generally here they are trying to turn this war into some crazy slaughter, it is clear that we are fighting a little differently . we are trying, the leadership is trying to protect the lives of the soldiers, not to keep a person in it, murder, mutual exchange of people. well, the equipment, in particular, and the weapons that we will need the allies contribute to this, because we, for example, with our grenade launchers, are able to create such a barrage of fire at a distance of up to 2 km , the enemy simply cannot pass, cannot reach our ex-experts there, go into battle trenches. that is why it is very important modern good weapons according to yurii well, you remembered about grenade launchers and your specialization, a military grenade launcher would not like to ask you about the history of variable-speed grenade launchers, because there was a big discussion inside our country and outside its borders, in particular, about the operation of multi-purpose

mortars, how useful they would be now to our soldiers, look, this is a war, it’s like a chess game in the trench, there are ordinary infantrymen who have a maximum of light machine guns, sometimes heavy ones, a little pulled back by a hundred meters, our grenade launchers and heavy kilometers can stand behind us, and a mortar is already working behind us and the mortar performs a fairly important role, because the mortars work, the infantry cannot advance, the mortar flying over the armored car destroys the armored car , that is, it destroys manpower and exposure, this is an important weapon. the problem in this war is that we have different types of mortars, but an even bigger one the problem is that we have different types of mines. my friend, who operates a mortar in a neighboring unit, says that we have more than 30 types of mines from different countries, they all have different ballistics, they all fly differently at different ranges, and that is why it is very important

master them first, but now the biggest problem with mortars is the lack of shells, mine brother, this is now the biggest problem, which in the war is obviously not enough ammunition, the enemy is pressing, if in the summer i could calmly release up to 300 grenades a day, now when the enemy even attacks, we can release 30 60. accordingly, we feel this hunger of bullets from it, the mortar feels it, if it does not work, it is felt as a company. unfortunately, if the artillery, tanks, mortars do not work and we do not work, then the ukrainian infantry suffers, then the enemy comes under the very positions and ties close combats and then of course lost a lot , mr. yury, thank you

. to the same donetsk well, accordingly, there is an understanding that most likely they work in heimers systems, but i would like to ask you, mr. yuriy , how good these weapons are in the current circumstances, and maybe even optimal, the weapons are very good. because the more long-range the weapon, the more accurate the weapon is, then to meet on distant frontiers, the enemy does not sneak up, cannot attack, cannot transport personnel, eh, let us see everything, only how they fly overhead at night , they have such a trail that is not with anyone, with anyone don't get confused, but it's obvious when the farmers are working. we especially remember when there was a situation there with the makiivka and we were in the adjacent part of the front, it became much easier for a couple of days because when the enemy in the field suffers losses when his logistical chains are interrupted when his weapon delivery bases, it works very well now , we understand that the enemy has become accustomed to

the distance at which our hymes operate and has moved its logistics centers beyond the range of action of the hymes, so ukraine needs weapons that will shoot a little further, because now the enemy if only i understood how serious this weapon is, but the russians are very fond of this weapon because their system of reactive volley fire systems shoot very unaimed, they are also destructive, but they shoot very inaccurately. well, they shoot more than grams every day. well, they only hit civilian objects well, she remained, mr. yuriy, i would like to ask you about heavy armored vehicles from the enemy side and from our side, because well, we hear a lot about the close infantry battles, yes. and in general , i would like to ask you how active armored vehicles are being used, and is it possible that certain reinforcements have already arrived? the promised enemy is using defensive equipment but is afraid to use it because they know that we have serious systems to combat it

, especially javelins that shoot up to 4 km very accurately. there are us, that's why the enemy does not come close, our tanks are working so far. of course, these are ukrainian tanks , modernized old soviet t-72,000 t-64bm bulat, but tank support is also very important although i will point out again that the tankers feel the sound of projectiles, there are not enough rounds, because if a tank moves to a position, it is obvious that neither the infantry gates nor the armored gates can move, but here we see bakhmuti, there are also tanks and ukrainian artillery is working on the equipment, accordingly, we are waiting, the guard is waiting more and better systems, because i assessed for myself what it is like to ride on an american transporter, what it is like to work with its armor

, how it works, how to safely get to the firing position, impress bmw and leave, don't be afraid that something will fly at you, well, this gives a significant advantage to that. i hope one day, when western tanks appear, they are modern, much more modern than the russian ones, er, then we can really move to a concrete offensive. a soldier of the armed forces of ukraine, a grenade launcher of the fifth separate assault regiment , is now in the dark. well, we are informing you about the most important thing. angelica is working in the studio . her news is from the country. terrorists detonated ammunition in the kursk region of russia. in the dugout where the soldiers were stationed, as a result of which six soldiers died, the vector services were informed that the fire broke out around 11 in the morning in the dugout near the village of ulanok in the suzhansk district, i don't know how to say it correctly, maybe in the suzhansk district

, there were seven people inside, one serviceman survived, but he got burns. well, in the meantime apart from the president of the united states, joseph biden , kyiv has most likely visited everyone, and the head of the international monetary fund, in particular, mrs. georgieva, could most likely come with a new some additional financial plan to support ukraine, although there is currently no official information about georgiev's arrival in kyiv. well, let's remind you that on friday , february 17, the mission of the international monetary fund to prepare for the review of the monitoring program ended in warsaw. so, we will continue to inform you about important events on the 14th at 40:00 p.m., it was specifically reported that under the procedural guidance of the prosecutors of the specialized department , 27 persons were notified of the suspicion, including

two at the time of the commission of the crimes incriminated against high-ranking officials, 17 law enforcement officers, two prosecutors and one investigator, as well as one judge and seven civilians. however, as we know , many people have not yet been charged. so far , neither suspicions nor court verdicts have been received, and unfortunately, the main criminals are hiding in the country of terrorists. so to speak, an international tribunal will be created. posipaki will also go by train, so to speak, after the main war criminals who are currently in the kremlin, and the president of the united states, our great friend, is already on his way to poland , as sia nens writes about this with a link to the presidential station of journalists who accompanied the head of the american state during the trip, according to the journalists, the president arrived in kyiv around eight in the morning instead of local time, met with the president of ukraine, took part in commemorating

ukrainians who died in the war, visited st. michael's cathedral, that's the story. well, he brought gifts or presidents in the amount of about 500 million dollars, what is there in fact, it is possible, some other important equipment for us, we will hope that it will increase the number of haimarians, yes, that is, we are already lost for angelika, and not only us, so in the amount of everything that was promised and equipped, in particular, the united states , that is, the tranche of aid goes to transport, so the main thing is that this word with the appropriate speed but i think that petruchernyk, a military expert, he is with us on to direct communication, mr. peter, congratulations to you, glory to ukraine , glory to the heroes, please tell us what we want in this aid package announced by the united states of america, the most

important, let's say, for the counteroffensive, because it was just that the political publication wrote about the fact that the united states tells us not to delay the armed forces with the counteroffensive. and do we have enough equipment for this? well, of course, the growth of equipment is happening. i am here in the studio about the mentioned himax, so in the part that concerns their total number together with the m-270 installations, we already there is the second country in the world as an operator, this is actually a very serious, most anticipated weapon, and i would very much like to hear about it tomorrow. ncm 140 attacks are followed by a lazy person who did not talk about them . the long-range task of strikes up to 300 km is actually a weapon that will improve many times over. knocking out equipment and the enemy, especially at long distances, and therefore the crimean bridge, as the main logistical artery of the entire peninsula, becomes threatened in order to really create serious counteroffensive prerequisites

, first of all, it is necessary to strangle the entire group in the crimea as much as possible. such weapons will definitely help to do this. well, regarding aviation , i have no doubts that it will happen, but i am not sure that it will even happen tomorrow , because we need at least a dozen to begin with, to begin with, planes from the f-16 let's put it this way, the eurofighter typhoon varies from 30 to 60 million dollars, so such a package cannot be spent on only a dozen cars, mr. peter. well , i would also like to ask you about the military aspects of president joseph biden's visit, in particular, about security issues, which protocols should be provided by the american and our military , that is, on the one hand, president biden went , or is it not the first time that the president of the united states visits a territory that is not

under direct umbrella control of the united states, in particular, taking into account the hostilities on the territory of our country, and on the other hand, we understand that the united states could give a very specific answer , in particular to russia. was what was the president's visit to kyiv a moment in my opinion, once again i could be wrong, i will only express my point of view if the president dared the usa to take such a step, it is an understanding that they were absolutely we are sure of our own security and first of all we do not forget the president that after all there has been a direct telephone connection between moscow and washington since 1962 after the so-called caribbean missile crisis there is not the slightest doubt that the details of the prevention of any military provocations from

the russians were spoken to in this way. in my opinion, the second point also seems to be that if joe biden did come to ukraine, then i do not believe that he came just to talk and bring some 500 million dollars, the previous two packages are already in this year were much larger and the president did not bring them, so there is some very serious decision, and in my opinion, this decision is in terms of proving or accelerating the end of this phase of the war. it seems to me that in the near future there will be several more packages of weapons and by spring all the prerequisites for a serious counteroffensive the rhetoric must be composed, give us weapons and we will do our work , the commitment to

china is already taking concrete forms. trumpists are taking office . to speed up by giving us weapons so that we win as soon as possible or by the appeasement of ukraine and russia, there can be no earthly winner and only one victorious , but i will be honest as always with my audience. i am more optimistic about the crimea, its reconquest by military means, and in your studio, as i explained how it can be done, however, the line on february 24 looks very, very difficult, purely from a military point of view, a line is built there from ikrid, and 500,000 soldiers are put in a grave to take this line and as well as heavy bomb strikes. this is a rather difficult task . there can be many formulas, but

the enemy did not achieve the most important strategic goal. and we , more precisely, on the contrary, did not finally take place as a subject of international politics. we were finally reborn as a newborn, but more correctly, the newly born ukrainian political nation, and geopolitics is an incredibly complex phenomenon - it is thinner than a spider's web, i do not in any way appeal to any kind of surrender to the territory, on the contrary, i am sure every time that sooner or later, we will leave the 91st year of our borders in what phase and in what form will it take place, well, mr. petar, the only thing that i would adjust if i was austrian was not just to become a subject of international politics , we became a subject that subjectivized the euro-atlantic community that attracted of the president of the united states is undoubtedly a historic moment. well, the key question is the red line that

the president of the united states will be willing to cross, in particular as one of the leaders of the euro-atlantic community , we understand. so it is not for nothing that the issue with aviation has not yet been resolved, and the issue with long-range missile systems it was also delayed for a reason. so, try now to decipher the story about the so-called red lines and how quickly they can be crossed, in particular, it is about helping us significantly, that is, not about this or that tank squadron yes, and about equipping us with powerful tank formations. the tanks will reach us . i have no doubt that at least 300 vehicles are available. we are actually getting a lot. more battalion tactical groups, because one battalion tactical group needs up

to 11 vehicles, but i said, i say, and i will say again that in fact the battlefield is changed by aviation, if i said a large content june , aviation is modern cavalry, nothing has changed, and then when these weapons reach us, i will optimistically say that the end is not far off, but there is a very critical realism, we need to see these planes in operation, and then we will sum up, mr. peter, what exactly is stopping joseph biden, because we see the solution depends on him personally, because already the legislators of the united states of america from both parties and a resolution appealed to baidin to provide us with a fighter jet. well, i don't think that there is anything that stops us from doing so. there is also a technical point, let's say we need at least the united states of america.

with such a task at the same time and at the same time, the truth is that both the tank and the aviation coalition are needed. i will remind you that there are more than 20 countries that operate the f16 , more than 4,600 of them have been released, and if you approach the principle of traveling the world by plane, then the ukrainians have a full-fledged regiment. yes, i i'm paraphrasing from the world thread by thread in my naked river. so let's hope that countries like holland, great britain and all those 20 that are on the planet earth if they can transfer 5 6 7 10 machines, this is exactly what will be the philosophy of success, i emphasize at once even for the united states of america to provide stomachs is impossible in principle, mr. petre, accordingly, we would like to ask you about your vision of the strategic concentration of the russian offensive group, so at the moment we see that our armed forces are very clearly working against the enemy, in particular in donetsk region, but we understand that the enemy is also concentrating as equipment and

the personnel in terms of equipment is a very debatable question whether they have practically no quality equipment left to repair. let's go from the opposite if at the beginning of this the fault was not small, a colossal, high-quality, strong group equipped with non-modern equipment and 200,000 personnel, and they caught us by surprise, unfortunately, they could not achieve what they set before themselves , what they are counting on now, with the exception of huge infantry scores. this can happen , that is, they will never respected a person and will not respect and ignore this condition for 300,000 of those so-called mobilized . at the beginning of this war

, we did not dream of such installations as we had there with the airist, they had 23 hulks and many, many other crotals and from the mistral. the mannerheim line, i can’t even imagine somewhere if they want to destroy the remnants of their air force from their armed forces. well, why not ? and as for the east, they have been pressing there since may and have been pressing. a large group withdrawn from the kherson region has not gone anywhere. positions so that the counteroffensive actions of the enemy continue from the end of november, but during this time show movement within 15 km. this is within the operational parameters of a mechanized brigade for the second army of the world, more than modestly, and the transformation of their pacific marines into a fried herring under a charcoal burner is a sign that we we know how to fight them, but the south, not peter, what can we expect from the enemy in the south, in particular in the zaporizhia direction, i do not yet see a concentrated potential for them to be able

to organize at least something similar to at the same time, we do not cancel the main rules of war. war is a way of deception . they will believe that the highest culmination point of the mala bez war will take place somewhere from the middle of spring to the middle of summer. at this time , the enemy is well aware that in the spring, by the middle of the spring, our quality weapons will multiply will grow and he thinks that at this moment he can force us to sit down at some negotiating table, because lukashenka's statements that he said let's sign a non-aggression pact with the ukrainians, orban's statement that we need to negotiate and, unfortunately, erdoğan's statements

are nothing but the enemy's request for negotiations, they are in a much worse strategic position, petre, do you expect some kind of massive missile attack on february 23-24, or will they no longer use it, since they have changed their tactics and now they are in smaller numbers rockets, but more often we are attacked, i still favor the concept that the big hall should be. it is logical considering how they are bent on the so-called historical dates and symbolisms and i will not go far into history, i am just 19 in october, when he then signed a decree on martial law in our occupied territories, the same decree was also issued in the 41st year, the state defense committee transferred moscow to martial law, and they are really inclined to this, so in my opinion, within the range of 8-10 to 100 maximum 100

they should have used the missiles, and they actually still have a reserve. but if in the first days we survived a battle with 160 missiles without having western models of weapons, then now the defeat indicators will be much more solid. at the same time, i will remind you that the last rape was very special in terms of the use of a large number at the same time, the hat 22 missile is the heaviest and most serious missile, which if shot down has nothing to do with the work of air defense . only rockets in general and drones, in principle, it is more difficult for us to shoot them down correctly. everything depends on how it happens, the interception mode, if it finds it in the radar, it does not matter whether it is day or night , because it is radio physics emphasizes, if it is still optical visual observations, then it really matters because, let's say, the shaheds are sometimes better to see visually and

shoot them down with high-speed machine guns , i emphasize once again, the enemy is learning and developing and you can't underestimate him , they still have a certain missile potential is preserved and it will be used against us, mr. peter, the opening of new additional areas of the front of the russian-ukrainian war, in particular, it is about the possible opening of the so-called northern bridgehead, because the enemy does not seem to have concentrated a sufficient number of personnel and equipment there to try to break through like this well, but they can try to do or do you think they would try to uncork some additional directions i can't see any additional directions in my opinion in a tactical sense against not everything we could to demonstrate, he has already demonstrated that if there will be a strike from the north, then with the forces and means that they have, and this is a maximum of 15,000 personnel, these are three mechanized brigades or a full-fledged division, which is outdated by staff

numbers even of the soviet union . so there is nothing more that could really happen for us the big problem here is that the 40,000th corps is needed, this corps needs 825 tanks, two and a half thousand armored vehicles, up to 1,000 units of barrel artillery, and most importantly air cover if will dare to go to hell suicide welcome to our black earth why not, well, and there , uh, in the style of wagner some kind of attack on bakhmut , in the style of wagner, that one first wave of infantry , second wave of infantry, third wave of infantry , fourth wave of infantry, and so on, they consider that even children can determine before that, as it was in the second world war - this is a classic zhukov region, once eisenhaus asked zhukov at one of the conferences after the war, how do you decide just tank mini fields? everything is very simple, a few infantry divisions and then

tanks are coming, but nothing has changed in them, but there is a nuance, there is even a huge current resource, control is in russia, compared to ukraine, it is still not commensurate with what stalin had, but the battle for the bakhmut fortress shows that we can withstand this and this type of fighters . thank you, mr. peter for this extremely meaningful conversation, petro chernyk, a military expert, was working now live on the espresso tv channel, let's go further, yes. well, we can tell you a little bit of news, for example, japan will allocate five and a half billion dollars to ukraine. and the prime minister of this the country has already announced this for us, and an extremely important signal came from the president of the united states, joseph biden , today in kyiv , he said that putin's war of aggression is headed for defeat . cnn reports about this. this is biden's. putin thought that ukraine was weak, the west was divided. he thought that

he could survive us. i don't think he thinks like that, biden said now, standing next to the president of ukraine zelensky, he's just talking about putin, he was clearly wrong a year ago , the evidence of this is here in this room. we stand here together, biden said about putin on to this heroes of the heavenly hundred ukrainian cities also held a tribute and representatives of the ukrainian authorities of local self-government and ordinary ukrainians also honored our heroes and we remember them and will discuss in our studios, of course , the affairs of the maidan in general revolutions of dignity to remember well, for now, the main news of the day as of 15:00, anna will tell you, i 'm melnyk. good afternoon, colleagues. thank you for your work. the news team is working on the most important things in a few moments, in particular , i will tell you about what the russian nazis are planning
