exclusive interviews reports from the hottest points of the front freedom frankly and impartially draw your own conclusions a person with an assault rifle will help you if he shoots, but if he is at point-blank range at your positions, the shout will not be yours, the guys on the front lines are dying and fighting, and if you do not equip them properly many of them will die 90% of our problems in the war are the problems of commanding the troops, these are the problems of the higher

command . we were preparing for war in the east, we were not preparing people from the russian federation. everything will be fine. the ukrainian army has radically changed the number of servicemen, weapons and equipment, as well as the tactics of conducting hostilities, this is the reality of donbas . and today we will talk about the modernization of the armed forces , what is missing for victory and whether it was possible

it is better to prepare for the russian attack, the 130-foot cannon of the ukrainian artillerymen has not been silent for more than 10 minutes, one by one, the 55-mm microscope will be deployed behind the front line, the trf1 is one of the many western guns that the ukrainian military has had to learn to work with, this french howitzer fires at a range of up to 24 km if the rocket is active here up to 30 km nearby the howitzer stands behind the machine gun as a military man appears in the sky with the call sign to be kamikaze drones lancet and scouts orlan active along the entire front line, in case of detection of drones, we open fire immediately, even without warning the personnel, well, everyone will understand why the whole calculation of the howitzer , a year ago i did not even guess that soon they would be waiting for field army life , especially service in the artillery during this time they

managed to master and to fight on the soviet d-20, then we learned on the trf, we now support the work of one of the airborne assault brigades, we work on call, that is, they fly a drone, scout the situation if something is found or seen, it is immediately transferred to the division control point, the diesel control point determines a-a which battery or platoon should work, gives calculations and directly works and adjusts with the same drone . or personnel, the absolute majority of servicemen of the 45th artillery brigade were mobilized, and the brigade itself

was in the reserve corps before the full-scale invasion of russia, a battery commander with with the callsign makar, unlike many others, he came to the military commissariat already with combat experience, we really have a team of six calculations interchangeable, someone is going on vacation , someone is sick, i change between calculations people and she continues to work, no one has worked in the artillery until now, with the exception of two people, three people but now i can safely call them professionals in their respective fields, and also in the zone, this is how we engage in mobilization on our own or through friends or through mutual friends, we find new people who might not have come themselves, but knowing that there is some kind of team and gives normal work, they are also ready to come and work, so a cossack came to the brigade in the armed forces, he has been in the armed forces since december , and the gun commander has already arrived at the position, and first from the smallest link to the largest they began to give as per service number

i tried to be a gunner and commander of the camera operator, and then i was appointed a commander quite quickly, in principle , everything worked out on the second day of training . the basis of our troops will turn out, in fact, from the very beginning , in fact, from the first weeks, they began to mobilize and now our army was equipped, because ukraine , i want to remind you, did not conduct a mobilization deployment before the invasion, then our combat units of our army were equipped in sredny by 50%. therefore, of course, without immediate replenishment, the army could not enter combat operations from the very beginning, therefore the personnel units took the first blow and very quickly began to be replenished mobilized until

february 24 in the ukrainian army there were about 25 thousands of servicemen, according to the white book, 234,000 more were in the operational reserve in the summer of 21 years. last year, the minister of defense announced the number of the armed forces at 700,000, taking into account the ongoing mobilization . it is possible that this number is even higher now. one of the biggest problems on the front line is the lack of organizational structure. keep in mind that there are literally thousands of small units on the front line, and all this must be organized because if you think about it, you have a front line that has an army, has volunteer units, units of the international brigade are the national guard is a security service, border guards, and there are too many such little things, and this causes problems in command and control , so the entire front line needs a rethinking of how we use soldiers and how they

are organized. we have created a large number of new commands . the operational tactical level is now being created actually already created corps this is also done to improve management since ukraine has deployed more than 80 brigades to command such a large number of compounds is quite difficult the corps will already carry out both administrative and personnel management, i.e. fully manage the brigades, be responsible for their combat capability for combat management, ensuring that this is, of course, the improvement of the logical improvement of the army management system, another challenge for the armed forces is how to provide new units with weapons and equipment, despite the fact that it is also necessary to replace lost in battles or what has exhausted its resource is clearly key here. at this stage

, there is help from the west, in particular, the usa after february 24 transferred 30 billion military aid to the armed forces dollars for comparison in the 21st year, ukraine spent less than one billion dollars on modernization and the purchase of new weapons and equipment, now the country receives more equipment than we could have bought somewhere during the time of our independence, if we even take what we have already sold, you can add therefore, the only challenges now are to quickly master this technique and to use it correctly systemically, you can have all the shells there and execute them at one point. first of all, the correct use and training of the personnel because, for example, the same leopard tank, if we take it, for example, you can learn to drive and shoot on it, and you can also use 10-20

functions there that will allow you to have an advantage over the enemy and fully prepare for such war to war of such intensity, ukraine could not do this on its own, and it is clear that the provision of such powerful military-technical assistance from western partners , and this is at the level of up to 50 countries various suppliers, including support for the economy, without this, i think there would not have been such a resistance, such a confrontation, and ukraine would not have been able to withstand it , but this war should become a big lesson, including a lesson of unfulfilled tasks in 2014 to 2022 it is clear that ukraine did not have so many financial resources and the equipment that the armed forces of ukraine are receiving now. even a year ago, ukraine

did not agree to sell it. but at the same time, it was not possible to use the potential of its own defense-industrial complex, for example, according to the data of the same white book for the entire 21 years for for example, the armed forces of ukraine bought new or modernized 220 artillery systems, including targets and tank guns, 43 units of armored weapons and equipment, six anti- aircraft missile systems, in general, the numbers are incomparable to what ukraine is getting now. ukraine has not purchased anti-tank missile systems for three years. the missiles themselves were bought very much, the complexes were not bought at all , the missiles were bought in a very limited number , they ran out quickly, unfortunately, they were not spent

purchases of ammunition for mortar artillery in three years is our biggest tragedy, for which we have to pay a large number of lives, we have not started the production of e-e factories well, we and not only ours, well, how did we build our production of projectiles 152-122 - 120's we didn't even they placed orders for in europe, they didn’t load enterprises there so that they already recruited, we could increase production in general, he said that the problem was repeatedly that uh, we were preparing for war in the east, and not preparing for war with the russian federation. as he said that great military commanders came to us, let's call them that, and when we said, what do you mean, for example, alder missiles are buried , they say. why don't they use them in the east? i told them that we should strategically prepare for war, and they waved their hands, we need some kind of

armored vehicles there machine guns, automatic weapons, some projectiles, so you understand, in one of the years, in one of the years, they bought 500 shells for the 152 mm, it’s also nothing, we didn’t give a lot and buy, i will say that in many ways you saw the interests specifically of interested persons who came and said there we need here is this one we are saying why why neptune for example we can no longer purchase there in the east we are not fighting for kilometers along the plantation later the final thrust and we are in the advanced positions of ukrainian military tactics the smoke on the flank is making everything smoke

, the infantry landing is approaching and with the cover of tanks is moving forward all such assaults in recent weeks on these positions have subsided a little, but in case of an attempt to break through the ukrainian military anti-tank weapons are ready-made, it is more convenient to fire, that means sitting, that is, installing these things, you see . well, where does the end of the eye, the chicken was simply placed on your knees, then you have a hull unloaded rocket lying on your shoulder. that is, you do not hold this weight in your hands because, well, your will is heavy the rocket installation is there, the javelin is there, take it out, then don’t take it out, because it’s there youtube. he’s from that side, it’s an angle, people are not stupid, it turns out they also know that there are weak points, they try to get somewhere from behind the landing there,

somewhere there, behind the cover of a closed position to work together with western weapons, which, as the military says, are made for people, the ukrainian infantry, of course, continues to use soviet stocks, such as this large-caliber machine gun, not everything does artillery. at point blank range to approach your positions, they will not cover you and this weapon will help your comrades on the flank very, very, very strongly dshk, it copes with piercing the armor be-be one even in the forehead if in the lower part to hit or rotate at us right here a shot at isko here, that's why we rotate, we shoot all the military on this support were mobilized , some from the first days of the full-scale invasion, some later spas, for example, together with the first tank took part in the defense of chernigov oleksandr, he was drafted into the army in september at the front he ended up

in a few months, to throw an untrained person into battle right away, well, this is the same as a crime, you can say, of course, there are sometimes cases and it is necessary that it comes with uh, let's say so from the ship to the ball and immediately buried, but we we are trying to put on the first line those who are already psychologically so many who are already seasoned in battles sniffing the dust of gunpowder on the second line put mobilized ones those who yesterday were still in civilian clothes and little by little bit by little bit by bit changed one day at a time for three days then me stand in for the front edge, i do so. during the month of three months , let's say so, let's drive the front edge again, then they become psychologically more , so much, it's very important, we jump, and then we reconciled the dog, i will.

to even go here like this. welcome, lord, to us here, we don’t have a super-class place , but you can live here, i’m resting. i and andrei is resting here, here is your kitchen and wardrobe and dressing room and everything else here, we still live here with us, a swamp of mud the snow is hard, you have to get used to it, it's okay, it's all right, it's all time, it'll all be over, so everything will be fine, everything will be fine, ukraine will win the war, no matter what weapons there are, we 're going nowhere without the infantry, because the key role is played by the infantry, the enemy must enter the trench

under the hut in the garden, the infantryman should reach the state border and still have to rush. what is the role of equipment or weapons that help this infantryman? that ’s another question. they work, and of course they are not unimportant, the king plays this means of development , this year the armed forces of ukraine gained unique experience in the use of digital technologies, in particular, satellite internet allows to unite all units on the battlefield into one network, this creates an advantage in the speed of reaction, the accuracy of strikes and the adequacy of decision-making, drones help to continuously monitor the enemy both day and night. if earlier, 2-3 years ago , we did not have a sufficient number of, let's say , such technological means of cars, now we

are already we overlap these needs, and of course the rule who has the information here wins the war we are practically practical well, of course , not ideal yet, well, we are at the tactical level, we have already completely covered our problems strategic level yes, of course there is still work to be done, i see that the transformation in the army is changing a lot. struggle and for ukraine, this is the most important thesis, because having modern high-tech, high-precision weapons

, ukraine will impose its agenda even on the russian army of one and a half million people, and this is exactly what the kremlin wants to have at the level of the 26th year, however, the tactics used by russia, despite its own losses, also bear fruit by sending soldiers to attack each time , thereby depleting the resources of the ukrainian army, weapons and equipment, but first of all people." all this is needed every day and some of them as you know for example radios drones batteries are supplied by volunteers they are not supplied in large quantities by the army the challenge for the front line for the system for

the ministry of defense for the general staff is to take the look from items of the general picture f-16 tanks and pay a little more attention to combat supply so that the soldiers go to the front and are able to get more of what they need mortars mines grenades of this kind of weapons are needed more because it is the guys who are not on the front lines who die and fight and if you do not equip them properly many of them will die during the war there is never especially such a big war there is never enough ammunition enough weapons enough troops so the main challenge is that the basis of the strategy

a war of attrition must be the survival of people , i.e. the solution of combat tasks under the condition of the maximum preservation of the lives of the personnel. full power we will not be able to completely suppress all russian artillery knock out all tanks from a distance from a distance we need to improve to reduce our losses increasing enemy losses first of all, what depends on us and not on the western military industry, one day it is necessary to improve first of all management, because the main problem of 90% of our problems in the war is the problem of troop management, it is the problem of the higher command of the upper middle echelon

of the command, one of the main changes in the ukrainian army which it may have started a few years ago , but it was especially manifested in the year of the great war , the initiative of commanders on the ground , sergeants, junior officers, were not afraid to make decisions based on the situation on the battlefield and in many ways, such actions also became the key to the successful operations of the armed forces of ukraine, which surprised the whole world near kyiv-kherson and in the kharkiv region, but the war continues and so far this list lacks at least one decisive victory, these were the donbas realities until we meet de-occupation and how can you live you can do it yourself. the history of the liberated cities of ukraine is gone. let's see how

our brothers helped us . they freed us from a normal life. houses and ukrainian people natsyks здезе есть yes, we are all nationalists of the people here did they resist residents came here stopped and sent back and became heroes roman would be the cities of ukraine from the ukraine project in the cycle of deoccupation that saturdays at 11:10 a.m. on espresso every week saturday political club helps to understand processes taking place in ukraine and the world vitaly portnikov host espresso and invitation experts based on facts give their assessment and forecast of the development of events want to understand how our today will affect our tomorrow see the saturday political club every saturday

not espresso i congratulate you this is freedom life on radio freedom you have already come to the very change the following frames may shock you live news from the scene of the events and also kamikaze drones political analysis objectively and meaningfully there is no political season exclusive interviews reports from the hottest spots the freedom front frankly and impartially draw conclusions ourselves we are looking for 17-year-old mykola roslo vas mariupol i know that the boy met the war in his hometown in donetsk region and stayed there in the epicenter

of hostilities for almost two months at the end on april 1, mykola managed to evacuate from a dangerous territory to the west of ukraine. as an internally displaced orphan, he was placed in a boarding school in the village of velikiy berezny in transcarpathia. the boy stayed there for only a few days, and on the second of may he mysteriously disappeared, and no one knows where he is now, so i am appealing to everyone who he sees me, look closely at the photo of mykola roslov, he has light blond hair and green eyes, he looks like a 17-18 year old boy, if anyone has seen him or knows where he might be now, no delay and call us on the hotline of the magnolia children's search service by short number 116,000 calls from any mobile operator free of charge i have another story of the disappearance of a child, this time in kharkiv oblast, it is about five-year-old yaroslav maigur. i know that he and his parents got in the end he lost

his mother and father under shelling, yaroslav himself luckily survived the child , as if by chance he saved the godfather, the grandfather of the boy, who is now trying to find his grandson, told us about it. i know who you guessed. yaroslav's grandfather told in detail the tragic story of his family. he says that the grandson and his parents met the war in kharkov, and since in the first days of the full-scale invasion the situation there was quite restless, the family immediately decided to evacuate. they were in kharkiv living apartments, it is called war did not leave where you got to you will see him there there was no opportunity to leave yet the kupyan district of kharkiv oblast was occupied almost at the beginning of the war, so for about seven months mr. serhiy i could not contact the family in any way, but i believed that everything was fine with them, it was small, absolutely, then i learned that it was important

to serve, as if under occupation, they could blow it up there, and not all of them will go to the head again. i will remind you that the liberation of kharkiv oblast was in september last year, the soldiers of the ukrainian armed forces quickly entered kupyansk, but kupyansk remained under occupation for some time and it was there that the family of mr. serhiy was located. it is known that the situation in the village was very tense and at some point they organized an evacuation there the convoy for civilians, the magyar family took the opportunity and tried to leave, but on the road between the kupyan junction and the village of kurylivka, civilian cars were fired upon, as i would like to give the industry , they drove in the rain in peace, where they had the same task as the neighbor who was the alleged colony of mr. serhiy's daughter together with her husband died. and the five-year-old yaroslav survived, survived and was baptized a boy who

was also traveling in this convoy . hospital and then it is not known how he left for russia. in the belgorod region, novak is not a hospital. what kind of hospital did they get to the belarusian region ? the village is supposed to be in november. it turns out that they appeared and also disappeared again and again . they talked about the fact that mr. serhiy is now in russia. it is not known for sure. it is possible that p the five-year-old yaroslav still remains somewhere in the uncontrolled part of ukraine, but no one knows exactly where, so i am appealing to everyone who sees me now , especially to the residents of the temporarily occupied territories who may be watching this program in on social networks, look carefully at the photo of five-year-old yaroslav maigrur, remember this face, the boy is thin, he looks 5-6 years old, he has short light hair and blue eyes. if suddenly someone has seen this
