[000:00:00;00] the city said that i went to war knowingly and how if they kill me, it's mine at my funeral, you don't cry because i defended my land and i went to war knowingly, i fought since the 14th year, a very glorious hero well, just a heart blood is spilled every day in our e-e and in the city and in our united territorial communities, unfortunately for the protection of our boys, and this is the greatest grief that the princess has brought us, and the question of who went where, who went where, is already a question everyday it is not widespread in our city in our city we are holding actions, i want to say by the way, today in iran, in the theological temple, we commemorated the eighth anniversary of the terrorist attack near the sports house where four of us died

in the 15th year, four of our heroes were killed there and the games of tolmachov, what is was the leader of the euromaidan, this is danya didy, who was 14-15 years old, vadim rybalchenko , he was a policeman with us, mykola melnychuk also died , and these people were the first victims of brock in the 15th year, who died already for independence for the fact that they advocated it was the anniversary the anniversary of the maidan, they turned out like this, in my opinion, it was to change the infantry mine, and they detonated it. there were a lot of wounded and four dead, so we today, the patriotic community gathered in the church and were mistaken for their souls, we honored them and every year we honor her eternal memory to those who died at the front and here is the hero about whom the story has been told forever, the honor actually rests on such people today, ukraine is holding on even though these

are healthy people who pay with their blood and their lives, what can i ask? are not subject to restoration, instead in kharkiv they promise to build two new microdistricts for people who have lost their homes. well, i understand that this is exactly for those people. it is obvious that out of these five hundred houses there is already some kind of project. who will do it? well, you know, the most important thing here is that it was of high quality housing and so that no one here warms their hands, in my opinion, this is the key story here . i do not know how it will happen. we are again. we have information that they are working with well-known architects regarding buildings, precisely to the master plan, how they will rebuild it. a city is a city and how will they provide apartments for those people who have lost it today , a group of kharkiv architects is working in paris, as far as i know, and they are working on a master plan for reconstruction, today we do not see

anything under construction, only the restoration of those houses that were damaged , the demolition of those houses that are adjacent to the demolition. well, yes, intensive repairs are indeed being carried out in these areas, especially northern saltivka, where the damage is really the maximum, but if you go to the region, then there the situation is quite critical and every day it gets worse, because kupyansk, for example, vovchansk , is constantly bombarded every day, destroying it . that's why we have in the region in the decapitated territories the territories of dvorichna vovchansk in kupyansk kozacha lopan eh very serious every day very serious violations

the number of people who are left without housing every day unfortunately in kharkiv oblast is increasing and this is a problem because after a year of war, people are left without a home and they need to be resettled somewhere so that they live somewhere, so the question is not where will the microdistrict be, how will the microdistrict be now, the question is to endure in this difficult situation, the question is how to provide for those people who today today, at this time of every day, there is no property left in which to provide a simple shelter over the head , yes, you can stand, thank you very much , oleksandr, for joining the veter . thank you for your comments, oleksandr skoryk, mp to the kharkiv regional council, i will only say briefly that 29 settlements of the kharkiv region are currently under occupation, there is no connection with them and no opportunity to find out what the situation is with our citizens there

. mr. oleksiy greets you, may god give you health, glad to see and hear. i want to ask first of all , of course, about these flights that were not noted in many settlements of occupied donetsk region and khartsyzk and ilovaisk mariupol, donetsk, and there are still a number of settlements that can be talked about already now, because again, i understand that you have your own understanding and your own instructions that can be voiced in the mass media, but so that our viewers understand and know more tell me what could have flown over mariupol or what there are guesses about, i said so, please . i think it's a bit too early to talk about it. i think let's wait for official information from the general staff, everything will be reported there, okay, then we are the question for now let's leave a-a and now let's talk about the enemy's actions in those directions, of course, we are talking about the southern zaporizhzhia region and partly about the southeast of the donetsk region, where the enemy is active, this is vugledar, and of course

the situation in the zaporizhzhia region. well, let's start probably from ugledar after this unsuccessful attack , when the russians were defeated just on the march , how do they say what is happening there, what kind of preparatory actions is the enemy carrying out today, the enemy has become somewhat more active , there were assaults on the don in ugledar of direction 43, two are still ongoing as of 6:00 a.m., today the barrel artillery of the vyoyanu was very active, there were 2,011 shellings but despite everything, the enemy today suffered quite heavy losses in equipment and in personnel, the losses in personnel were killed and wounded. well, more like two companies, this is precisely in the direction of ughledarsk, what you say is so, but the situation is not easy, here in the zaporizhzhia region, we are talking about orikhove, if i am not mistaken, that is the name of the village there, also tokmak, the enemy is trying to give birth there

also offensive actions assault actions and what is the situation there, what are the prospects for the enemy and what are the possibilities for holding positions for the armed forces of ukraine or maybe for counter-offensive actions, please, in the zaporizhzhia direction, it is true in the area very well prepared prepared personnel very additionally a lot preparations were made to prepare for the meeting of the enemy, but today i did not have such data on assault actions there in the area. earlier, but i am asking about the situation in general, yes, but i understand that this is the zaporizhzhia direction. well, because if there they pass certain lines of defense of the armed forces of ukraine, the enemy dreams of going to zaporizhzhia. actually, i do not i remember very well there until march 14 or by what date putin ordered his army to take zaporizhzhia, they

have such dreams. well, obviously some plans were proved to them. zaporozhye well, let's start with the fact that, geographically, it is now very inconvenient for them to attack zaporozhye there, they can only shell because, uh, between the units , in fact , there is also the dnipro river, there are many obstacles there, and the enemy is not so easy to plan and start fighting there shelling actions are taking place. assault actions are active there. at the moment , there have been no active actions in the last four days. all the main actions are taking place right through the donetsk direction . on the other hand, it is known that in the zaporizhzhia direction, the positions of the russians were visited. representatives of the ministry of defense conducted an inspection of their fortifications there, i want to say that our intelligence and people who are not indifferent who work in that direction inform us that

well , it is really quite good. buildings, but in the presence of all available means of destruction. i think that this will be a small problem for the armed forces of ukraine when the e-e is prepared and a decision is made regarding the e-e offensive. i think that we will be able to overcome all these their constructions, well, we are not talking about the shelling of mariupol yet, we are waiting for the official notification from the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine. i want to ask another question, and the enemy is using mariupol today to accumulate reserves there. ammunition groups , what is the significance of mariupol today, do we really have enough forces and means of the enemy

's army accumulated? also, there is a lot of equipment there, and they use the zaporizhia direction where the russian troops are located. we also know that, but it is through mariupol to zaporizhzhia that personnel and equipment are sent from there to replenish the ranks in the donetsk direction. well, i am finally let me ask about melitopol berdyansk, we always read about how the enemy is entrenching there, and you said about it , in particular, berdyansk is trying to turn it into a fortress city, these actions continue that is, they really believe that the key points in the battle for the south should be the prices of populated areas, it would be very good , let's say, these cities, because if these places are liberated, it will open up other directions in which it

will be possible to conduct counteroffensive actions and to knock out the enemy from these positions in which he is located . direction, the colonel spoke with him about the situation in the south and southeast, we got more information about what is happening in the zaporizhzhia direction, they are also in the southeast of donetsk region, and now we will continue to talk about the arms war serhiy zgurets, the director of the defense express agency, is already with us serhii, congratulations and no of sound as far as i understand, that's why we'll try now. now, for a second, we'll er- eliminate the technical problems and serhiy will be able to not only see him , but we'll be able to hear him

to fly to mariupol, we will not make any guesses, of course we will wait for the official notification from the general staff of the armed forces of ukraine , because i am reading the evening report so far, there is no information about it, but about the unsuccessful russian offensive, the general staff named the directions of the dsu, they repelled enemy attacks, in particular, of course, the enemy continues to attack the positions of ukrainian troops near bakhmut , e.e. the russian federation is concentrating its main efforts on the kupyan, liman, bakhmut , avdiyiv and miner directions. well, but of course, everyone wants to know what could have happened there in mariupol, it was heard until 11. maybe even more explosions, and the russian troops raised the air force. there was information about it on the internet, in public places and on the website from people who have something to do with everything. serhiy was with us then. i i'm stopping sergiy i congratulate you once again i congratulate you vasyl i congratulate our viewers now everything is working perfectly and i even heard your question you probably wanted to ask me what is happening in mariupol, what really happened there, that's enough of dmitrizhkivskiy cautiously approached this issue because

it is really difficult to determine yet, but we know that up to 10 enemy objects there were hit by ukrainian samples and the farthest in terms of distance are precisely mariupol and snizhne, about 80 km from them, and we can talk about that they can be obtained by heimers, although in the publications of the occupation authorities it was written that the ukrainians used these new weapons systems, the diameter of the bombs with which they can be used from the launch farmers, i think that we will not disappoint them, let them are afraid and continue. the main thing is that we destroy them with the weapons that we have sufficiently effective, and later in today's military program we will talk about what is happening on the front line and with our military and with our professional experts

, our general staff announced this in a moment this evening that the armed forces repelled the offensive actions of the enemy. in five directions, these are kupyan , liman, bakhmut, avdiiv, and shakhtar. so, every time i hear these messages from the general staff, i actually imagine what is behind each of these lines specific commanders and specific fighters of ours depends on the stability of each of them whether our line of defense will not waver and at times. this story with each front with each section depends on one of the vodnogorsk strongholds or even spshka, that is, the observation point on which they are located only there are two soldiers there, how difficult is it, by the way, we have seen a video where two soldiers, soldiers of soldiers , are fighting back against the enemy's shaft with such a machine gun, using both rpgs and machine guns

, how hot it is. well, it happens there. the video struck me that two fighters actually hold back both the enemy's barrage of fire and the enemy's human barrage and we also have to remember that hmm, what a colossal load our fighters endure, some of whom have been on the zero line for 8 months or more , facing all threats what is produced by our enemy, and now we are in touch with yuriy syrotyuk, a military serviceman with the call sign mamaiv e-e, a gunner, a gunner of the fifth separate assault regiment of the armed forces of ukraine, mr. yuriy, i congratulate you, greetings, society of ukrainian bakhmut, i am sincerely glad to see and hear you, we know that you are in bakhmut , and i would like to hear from you now what is happening in this hot section of the front, because the two days before that were extremely difficult, then

there was a certain pause, it was said that the enemy is trying there recover from our counterattacks , what is happening right now and in the city around the city, today the enemy actively launched assault actions, in particular, in the area of ​​responsibility of our unit. and this is the south of the city of bakhmut ivanovska is trying to continue to fly in the city of bakhmut, children to yes of the so-called aircraft, this is the extreme southern outskirts of the city. obviously, this is done for propaganda purposes and the situation repeats itself from day to day almost the same way, the enemy is firing artillery strikes, the enemy systems of the rssu are working in the hail now tanks have rolled up a mortar about some of them, there is a shortage of projectiles from the enemy , bakhmuti, we don’t have to say everything leveled with the ground. then their assault infantry , which we destroy, goes on a killing spree, then it goes a little behind the fact that

everything repeats again at first, it really happens that after a day when we kind of crush them on the approaches to bakhmut, they calm down a little, but again continue their offensives, obviously they have some propaganda task to get out. whether it is before putin's message that they failed, or before the anniversary of february 23, the anniversary of their defeat under the pskov riots, or until february 24, before the anniversary of the war with the enemies very strong rod. you very correctly noted that now a very big burden is being placed on our infantry on those guys who are on the front lines and in a hurry due to the high intensity of the battles and the fatigue is really huge and there are a lot of losses contused, but i myself have witnessed cases when guys who are very contused, whose ears are bleeding or who are sick, who are vomiting, refuse to leave their positions, refuse

to leave their comrades, fight to the end , but now, in fact, these battles are very difficult because it is cold in the evening. today it is freezing again here during the day it's a sloppy swamp, that is, you're wet in the trench all day and then you freeze at night. it's obvious that you can't light anything, you can't warm yourself only with vodka, that's why the situation is very difficult, i believe that it's under control, but unfortunately from our side, we feel a shortage of projectiles, i.e., the ukrainian army lacks ammunition, there is a lack of parity in the impact of artillery, there is a lack of mortars, mortars, even for our grenade launchers, there is a lack of ammunition , although there is a positive thing that for the first time in this war, we moved to the position of american brand m113 transporters, and it is of course much safer on armor to drive to the front position to shoot back and on armor to return to the point you are talking about yourself because you fought for seven months on such an extraordinary

vehicle and now finally a few weeks they switched to m14s, which are more protected, in fact, it is really possible to do our work more effectively. we continue to fight on pickup trucks purchased at our own expense, it is not impossible in bahmut, it is impossible to get to the position of the city , the artillery impression is constantly being made, the enemy hits the blocks , the city within the city is very it is dangerous to move around . therefore, it is impossible now. our experience using soledari pickups has shown that in a week we have lost almost all of our cars. we will fight with a harrow, although in fact our regular car is still a twenty-year-old one, and in 200

e p. life, i.e. the life of the enemy, is of little concern to me, but when our fighters are wounded there and when we lose our fighters, it actually means that we somehow need to get out of this clinch imposed on us by the enemy, do you have a vision of how this is possible do in order to avoid such a model of hostilities, including the same spshki and irot strongholds, when the advantage of operatives in numbers is actually imposed on us in this format of war, this is really a problem. because russia offers this terrible exchange, on the other hand, the position of , for example, our unit should not be given without the enemy has nothing to do with the battle, in the case of losing the sspka, we always go to repulse it, because the enemy must know that now the enemy is testing the character of the ukrainian soldiers, where he feels weakness, he will persevere without stopping because of that for example, our position is very simple if we are repulsed

in haste, and this happens now in this war, er, sometimes it is not our fault, and for example , a neighboring one is a problem of neighboring units , weak coordination of subordinate units, the enemy strikes at the joints, someone retreats several hundred meters, and then the entire front has to roll back and it's very bad because we have to prepare new positions in the middle of the field, constantly breaking into the ground, which is frozen and wet from below. that's why we decided for ourselves that we're not going to give them to the meter and the enemy about it knows and we even see on the russian public and on the video what they say that we are very aggressive fifth assault regiment and you actually this problem is this problem is that the enemy offers a mindless exchange of people accordingly our task is to preserve the ukrainian army as for me well, but it is also our task not to lose territory, because every time we give at least a little bit of our land to the russians, it only increases their appetite, we understand that they need bakhmut because

, without taking kyiv in three days, they have to show at least any result in a year and this one the result will only suit their imperious moods. therefore, it is obvious that russia cannot give us anything , and the secret is clear. this is a maneuvering war. this is not to be in time for this trench warfare. while we do not have parity in artillery, this is high-precision artillery means. this is armor. well, for sure. that's all, but it doesn't matter. how many tanks did we get in this war? people win the war. the main thing is the fighting spirit of ukrainian soldiers, and i sometimes wonder how people who sit in the trenches for days can't be driven out, that is, the russians saw it too. now he feels what the real ukrainian character is, they are being driven into battle under the compulsion of being shot, we hear it on the radio intercepts that the wagnerites, that even the cadre soldiers are already in battle, we have

such a fraternity that even wounded or slightly contused soldiers refuse to leave field of oboe today there will be such incidents because while their comrades remain there p. yuri, you mentioned the fifth separate storm regiment. i know in other of your comrades you know the leadership. units that, actually, in 8 or 9 months , civilians people who were called to serve for their advised other men who are still in the rear and have been given a certain time to prepare to strengthen our defense line that you advise them what they will need and what they should be ready for, well sometimes it is strange to watch when a unit that

arrives at the front line soldiers say that they are not ready for combat, everyone should understand that the men who did not get to the front now had a year to prepare , everyone should understand that the country is in a state of war and there are no professional instructors, because all professional soldiers are needed at the front, and that is why i advise you to do so how did we do it ? already 2 km away, you can clearly see where we are shooting, when someone complains that he did not know, the bullet was not ready, the projectile will not choose . that is, life, every man in ukraine must understand that if russia conducts a general mobilization, then ukraine will also call for the completion of all

men who are still not at the front, so everyone should at least learn some elementary knowledge, basic basic medical knowledge, basic knowledge of what to do in the event of shelling , basic shooting knowledge, all this can now be learned through the youtube channel without leaving home, it is clear that you can fight learn only in the war, no theory can be compared with practices at the beginning of the war, we were trained. when we had good instructors from abroad who had gone through many international conflicts, they gave us valuable advice, but when we told them about the peculiarity of our war, about dense artillery shelling about eh about that war, actually similar to the first world war , here you have to feel it all for yourself, but every ukrainian who relaxes now is very early, i have an inner feeling that we are now at a turning point at the most important moment this war is a war of characters and the men who are still in the rear must understand that the intensity of hostilities is such that we need to replace even the wounded

because of those brothers who are in hospitals . take that first step and when a person takes the first step, when he becomes the target of the armed forces of ukraine or when he enters the battle, then there are completely different feelings here. believe me, it is not scary here during the battle, such adrenaline, what what there are no emotions, there is no fear , fear comes later when you can realize where you were and what happened to you, but there is another problem now. next replenishment there are no educational institutions for the youth, for the civilian population, it can all be done, there are veterans who are wounded or lost limbs, who cannot be on the front lines, but who can qualitatively educate the adult population of men and women, all those

who want it, and unfortunately, there is no such thing as a system lacking this is very lacking in moral and psychological support, we came to this war with the call of the heart, many from emotions. and now this war needs will and worldview, and unfortunately , this institute of moral and psychological support in the ukrainian army does not work at all, the best psychologist and the teacher is a first-grader and a third-grader who writes us a letter, this is a volunteer who comes to us , but there is no competent professional work with personnel. and this can be a problem, because in those units where there are motivated soldiers, where are people who understand what they are fighting for, where there is discipline, everything is fine in those units where such an atmosphere has not developed, we have problems and if we have to say that there are units that hold the front firmly and there are units that refuse, as it were, to fulfill their community obligations

contact via in my opinion, due to the fact that they did not work enough with them in terms of moral and psychological education, mr. yurii. thank you for your time, for your important explanations and for your service. take care of yourself, my brothers. grant holder of the fifth separate assault regiment of the armed forces of ukraine, and now we will move from the battlefield to the analysis of what is happening along the entire front line with the enemy , we are joined by viktor kyvylyuk , a reserve colonel and an expert of the center of defense strategies , viktor. welcome to the espresso channel. please tell our viewers what is happening along the entire front line. because i know that you follow this in detail, and your conclusions and your facts are even used in the institute for the study of war, so i think that your the word is quite powerful, what exactly is happening, what can be expected well, if you walk along the front today during the last 7-10 days, it

can be described by the word fighting of local significance in the area between the two-year matchmaker and the crimea against what is happening to advance in the direction of kupyansk in the direction of the estuary and not only attempts exit to the city of siversk from the northern direction specifically. this section of the front is interesting in that here the enemy was completing the formation of the classic formation of the troops of the sixth and twenty-first army lined up in an operational formation. by the way, the defensive with which they are trying to attack is allocated to the reserve in the second and infantry divisions in the luhansk region are kept in reserve by the 31st separate landing assault brigade , a management system was created two weeks ago, a new commander of the troops of the western military district was appointed, that is, in this area, the general staff of the armed forces

of the russian federation the federation is trying, well, not trying, they have actually completed the creation of a classic operational structure and are trying to translate combat operations into the context of such more or less classic ones, that is, here they become everything is predictable here, everything will be read quite easily by our command. well, and fight uh , with the silver forestry against the 95th airborne assault brigade. well, i have to say the boys and no one contacted them . a large number of different types of units, private military companies, they all collude with each other, interfere constantly in the information field , wagner and the ministry of defense, as far as the situation is concerned, the enemy refused
