[000:00:00;00] as for special forces, special forces also in private military companies, well, let's look at the number of personnel before the start of a full -scale war, the boiled numbered somewhere around six to seven thousand people , this is a professional training that took part in many conflicts on our planet during the start of a full-scale war, this the staff was increased at the expense of mobilized people , including persons deprived of their liberty, up to 40,000; as of today, there are no more than 70,000. can you imagine the number mercenaries were destroyed, as for the losses of the enemy, to the information provided by the general staff regarding the liquidated enemy , it is necessary to add another plus three, one, it will be difficult, not three easily wounded, such statistics, that is, the enemy is now grinding as much as possible against the teeth of the armed forces of ukraine, while receiving the appropriate amount of equipment

which has already been promised and announced, and deya has begun to enter ukraine, we will have the opportunity to de-occupy our territories with active offensive actions over a period of time, which now they are fighting against you in your direction, how motivated are they, how well dressed are they? we saw the video that they are there in some kind of sneakers, ah, because they don't have enough clothes, how much equipment do they have according to your own observations. let's be honest here, we need a picture to look as a whole, if we talk about the number of shells that the enemy uses daily, if three months ago it could have been 22-25 thousand shots per day along the line of contact, as of today there are more than 18,000 shots in they are simply not physically possible to do accordingly they are not where to get from where to accumulate logistic quickly spend accordingly in those directions that the priority

nasty considers for himself such as the bakhmut ughledar criminal e does not feel a decrease in the intensity of the organs on the contrary even in the bakhmut direction 100% feels an increase in fire but finally the direction for example, such as zaporizhzhia, e.e., the intensity of shelling has significantly decreased, which indicates that this indicates that the enemy is now experiencing a deficit not only in quality prepared personnel and in its provision, and against them already began to feel comradely hunger and the enemy began to feel hunger in equipment, they are light and heavily armored on key priority directions, i repeat , it is impossible for the enemy to understand this, because he concentrates everything that is possible, that is impossible everything that drives and does not drive. but if you take the entire line of confrontation , they understand that for the enemy , significant problems have already begun, that is why the armed forces of ukraine. the ukrainian nation has every opportunity

in 2023 to do the maximum for victory in the russian-ukrainian war, and perhaps i allow such an opinion that our actions can successfully lead to a change of political leadership in the russian federation, which will lead to the complete de-occupation of our territories . it is still true that the russians, if they were to remove from their warehouses, send such uh-uh to the front line archaic machines like russian bmp-1 and these tanks and 62 or are they already dealing with this at the front, i will say frankly i personally did not see the t-62 there, i cannot evaluate, but if we talk about the military-industrial complex of the russian federation, it started six months ago therefore, when the equipment began to be dismantled from storage warehouses, it was put into operation and sent to the front, because the reserve that the russian federation had at the beginning of the war was destroyed

by the armed forces of ukraine. and the equipment that was deconserved, respectively , about the quality of the equipment and the ability to perform combat tasks on it, there are also certain questions, therefore, it is possible that the rate of the russian occupation troops cannot be won without victory, on the one hand, hard work of the armed forces of ukraine, which are all working hard, on the other hand, it is the impossibility of the russian federation to provide its army with the appropriate amount of high-quality equipment and professionally trained personnel. what is the current situation of opposition to the technological one ? to speak absolutely frankly that in russia it works quite well as a radio reconnaissance means of electronic warfare, yes they work quite normally they are all the time

are being improved from soviet models, have switched to more modern ones of various types, including foreign production of those countries that show conditionally neutrality and in fact help the components of the russian federation. the second topic is that since 2014, the russian federation has been very active in the development of unmanned aircraft systems, both reconnaissance and strike if we talk about their eagle-lancer, they used it effectively enough at the beginning of the war, now its effectiveness has decreased why because the armed forces of ukraine are satisfied effective countermeasures in the fight against lancets, as well as in the preservation of our armored vehicles and artillery, because these are the primary goals for which the enemy works with lancets, as for ukraine, first of all, we were such, you know, extremely powerful steps in the development of various types of e-e means that help to fight with enemy unmanned aerial vehicles, they have also developed methods already in practice that help us understand

the difference, so a technical means is what helps to technologically destroy the lancet divert it from the target or other technical means of the enemy, and the technological one is what helps in a certain way to close the armored vehicles, so ukraine has made significant progress in this, if we talk about the development of the side , thanks to the fact that the ukrainian nation is a nation of talented people, i will not tire of repeating what we got in a year war , there are extremely many different models of both bombers and kamikaze planes, as well as reconnaissance planes that are manufactured by ukrainian private companies, there are developments that are manufactured by the ukrainian military-industrial complex and also on international partners, that is, in a year, ukraine has made an extremely high jump, and in the near future, according to those state problems in the program that we see, this army of drones must be an army equipped and saturated with the

amount of shock commercial poisoning that will help ensure us complete superiority in the air. but for this it will take some more time , there are certain uh, if there were opportunities and a production company, therefore, i sincerely thank everyone in everyone who, from the first days of the war, helps the army , in particular, our unit, in particular, purchases even other sophisticated devices, drones that help us to effectively earn money and destroy our enemies . thank you for your support, and we must understand that we will need this support for a considerable time until the state machine can cover all the needs of the armed forces of ukraine as a whole, mr. they say that they see more than the average fighter there, for example chi and so on. what are your impressions about the fact that the initiative in that area with the criminal matchmaker is kept by the armed forces

of ukraine, does this also mean that there is potential for a possible future offensive on this part of the ukrainian but here i was very restrained, the task for us is very simple, all the nations we have as military representatives of the civilian sector, this is the de-occupation of all our territories within the framework of 1991 2018, the general world nailed down the direction in which counteroffensive actions will be developed, we will see , including from the news, until now we will not give the enemy the opportunity to think about where it is necessary to strengthen the defense even more thank you, thank you, but i also wanted to ask, you know, they listened to the interception of a russian soldier talking to his wife, and there he has such a thing at the end , uh, well, he is terribly proud of the wagnerites, then he tells her not to believe what propaganda says about

that akhmet is a force because ahmed is an army that only fights in social networks, and he has you in the end, he says the same thing, he thinks that the ukrainians don't defend well somehow , they are the same, they fight bravely to the last, the same way how are we, well, we are, we are as we also grew up on the same thing. i understand that he meant some, i don’t know whether it was from a movie about the second world war or what was written in these history textbooks of the soviet union about the great patriotic war, well , in a word, all kinds of myths do they fight as fiercely and bravely as in your opinion

, i will say frankly that there are certain units that primarily have a conditional patriotic upbringing towards the russian federation. the nearest representative of the armed forces of ukraine was one kilometer away from him, and he, realizing that podvedeni took out grenades and gathered himself, they did not surrender themselves, but if you take the statistical ratio - this is 5%, and it becomes russian-occupation troops who are on the territory of ukraine, it's so simple well, i will put three dots there, common sense has little to do. all other representatives of the russian federation, in my opinion, have a low level of motivation and understanding of this war in general, but at the same time, why they are fighting and carrying out shock-assault operations because the coercion system of the russian occupation is sufficiently powerful, what is meant by those commanders and special personnel who refuse to carry out combat tasks are liquidating here already those who are trying to carry out certain actions regarding the possibility of crossing

the front line and surrendering prisoners, if you calculate them, you eliminate the units that have a low level of motivation, as well as the desire to fight . they put them in positions outside them. positions and do not give, do not give the opportunity to make a retreat, that is, they have in these positions that they have taken to die, there is no other possibility. if the russians like that it is the representatives of kadyrova who shoot them , well, it is their choice. our task is to eliminate them, and i emphasize that their level of motivation is not at a high level, more a system of coercion , so thank you, thank you very much for your work, yury fedorenko, commander of a company of attack unmanned aerial vehicles, call sign achilles, e-e , commander of the 92nd separate mechanized brigade

named after ivan sirko, the toastmaster of kosh, was with us. they talked a little about what is happening in his direction and how the russians are behaving there. well, now they told you that we are giving this news that those from irkutsk, that irkutsk, is a russian city in siberia who complained there that they run this terrible meat grinder there, and their kind women and mothers also complained there in irkutsk, then the whole regiment was literally let to die, right and already there . information that almost none of them remained there, all of them simply literally crumbled eh and under i am an audiophile and beautiful to this topic . i remembered now i will try to find good russians in the ekho moskvy studio

. like the death of a woman, whom they hate as if they were in a concentration camp, here they are sent to war, like once upon a time, the nazis sent jews and roma and other representatives of us whom they did not like to concentration camps. russians are those who are considered good and you understand that everything very bad in them is caused by consequential connections in the head somehow arranged and here he is russian and all that and this epithet good does not fix anything , let's see this piece of the side , too, you don't need to get stuck no очень i understand all the same people who report to the armed forces of the armed forces of ukraine so that the armed forces of ukraine killed, for example, those who were dishonestly mobilized there .

okrasa gave you the opposite example and i look at the chat and it says to me that it's in vain that i feel sorry for the mobs, what do i mean about putin's propagandist guys, but i'm not the only one , i don't say that i'm directly in the veins guys, this is a fact. it's not just me saying that, i'm all the time referring to my favorite my favorite quote by leonid gotsman's phenomenon, which he compared with a-a, rather, a comparison, these are riots against someone who is wrong, there is enough ammunition with a-a riots in concentration camps, that is, what is developing mobilized - these are prisoners thrown into a concentration camp , and there's more. i now understand that i, as i said now, are shaken, they don't shake me when

i hear this word, straight up, chick, people are not me , they are really, well, they are scary to the point when a person speaks even in ukrainian, that 's right, you, who came from istanbul, went ukrainian you forgot the language, you fell headfirst from the oak tree, please don't use those russian words here , it's very, very ugly, i myself sometimes say something like "there , of course, in general" and so on. i hate it when people say ukraine, grease, did you come or what? well, that is, things like that, when you say that you don't like something in the pronunciation of ukrainian by some ukrainians, you immediately offer the correct option so that people hear how to

say ukraine correctly, i say ukraine correctly death to the muscovites death to the muscovites actually translated into russian but you see how angry they are about what you know, i'm also curious about yours , i understand that you are not outraged by those russians who call each other to report to the armed forces of ukraine because the armed forces of ukraine kill such poor scumbags but for there were them. it's just the armed forces, it means it's some kind of three , three letters. it seems that the armed forces are our mercenary army. you know the same vyvagnerites. listen to the armed forces. these are people who had their own families, their own homes, they lived beautifully , try, they didn't come here, they had their own families. lived and developed their country as you knew how, of course we do not lack a problem army here either, there was no problem before this war and i don’t think they dreamed of going somewhere there

to wallow in the swamps and understand that every day could be the last, but you decided to start a war, you you are you discussing with er i don't know with the muscovites i don't know such a one i shouldn't shout but just the cry of the soul so good gentlemen let's now say hello to our serhiy zgurts military expert director of the defensis pres company mr. serhiy good morning good morning i congratulate you i don't know whether it is it and i have a question for you, but you probably also know yesterday ’s news about a ukrainian soldier who is a prisoner of the russians and the fact that we saw this video that was distributed a-a, for what purpose did they show it to the russians, or are they so simply repressed, i’m sorry, another

epithet i'm using it, what's wrong with them? well, are you thinking of filming how they execute a ukrainian? was it really a special operation because they are running out of missiles? well, we see that these rocket attacks, massive missile attacks, have somehow subsided and this is an attempt to destroy the morale of ukrainians. this way and whether further we will see some similar executions of theirs, i don't know, some of their murders of this nature, we know in irpin and in buch, in fact , this was already the first sign that this is an army of marauders, rapists, this is an army that , in fact, should not exist in this world

. already after what happened under the e-e irpen in mariupol, we understand how unhinged our enemy is, maybe it is not fully aware of our e-e world on our partners, but such videos where our warrior courageously meets death, he understands that him now he says the words glory to ukraine, and actually millions of people respond to it. glory to the heroes, so i think that this is what it is, no matter what the reasons are for the enemy to make and spread this video, it seems to me only added to the fury of our soldiers in general courage in the ukrainian population, that with this opponent there is no other option except the destruction of the talks, and who has

what? even now, the world will once again look differently at what the russian federation represents in such manifestations with its russian army, i think what is possible it will be yet with one push, in fact, even more support for ukraine in various manifestations, which is actually very much. various sources report, for example, the show ukraine has reached the point when this size becomes unprofitable , relatively speaking, we are losing elite parts in exchange for some garbage in stores , uh, russian, russian, other opinions on the contrary otherwise, now russia is using elite

troops to defend bakhmut, and therefore now it makes sense to receive, no matter what , the decision to keep bakhmut seems to have been made , and what does this mean, what prospects and meaning do you see in this decision, in particular, my lord sergius , uh, really the evaluations are completely different. but we are now going to the conclusions of yesterday's assessment of the supreme commander and the evening address of the president, where he said that the military leadership of general zaluzhnye and the syrians support the need or defense in bahmut to strengthen in view of the goals that this e-tactical operation with strategic consequences is solving now. that is, we are talking about the fact that we really destroy a significant number of e-e enemy and here it is certainly not worth saying that these are only

criminals with insignificant skills what really? now we are talking about the fact that the enemy has to throw paratrooper units here , those forces that actually have a certain professional level in the russian army, and the second component of maintaining the bahmut is the provision of a stable line of defense there if it is not failed and this is now being ensured and the third component that has already actually been released is the preparation of the next lines in the defense that will allow our troops to move to, if necessary , from the point of view of the ability to deter the enemy, now it will always depend on the extent to which we secure our units precisely on the flanks on the northern and in the south, and here we can say that there were indeed concrete stepping-stone actions over the course of two days, which allowed the units to simply follow the direction of the pincers there to gain a foothold and, with

the support of artillery, to gain these positions part of our troops, which i can see, have already left the eastern bank of the bakhmutka river, that is, the bridges were blown up and our troops moved to the zone of urban development. and now we are separated from the enemy by the river and further. is landed, and in any case, we understand that now personally it depends on what reserves the ukrainian side will use, what dozers the enemy will use, the question of the fact that we have transferred new brigades there that are preparing for the content installation, because it is not true because none of the names of the brigade you are currently defending in bakhmut has anything to do with the group

that is being created to carry out offensive and offensive actions that we are there. the number of artillery because the supply of ammunition is limited. it really makes it difficult for our troops to effectively destroy the enemy by preventing him from reaching certain lines of defense and because this balance between holding and withdrawal it is thin enough and now we honestly do not even have complete information about what is happening there because as i understand it, there are heavy units, mechanized units, partly already withdrawal there are these forces that can hold the defense in the urban development and these forces are operating there first of all, it is supported by artillery and not only aquariums, by the way. yesterday i had a conversation with my friend . he said that our aviation and artillery are actively operating there. he says that in a narrow

section of the front, we see such a powerful front line. the air force, where is the air force and the operation of the front, and he says that so many forces are involved in a difficult part of the front, which he says well, it reminds me of the kursk to- and the most important thing now for him as a commander is that he says that so many different task instructions are coming from different levels that it says it is difficult to digest what is literally there. a month ago it was easier , now the main thing is how to ensure the leadership of the regiment in these conditions, so i think you are only serious enough, but we see that the attention from the country's leadership and from the leadership of the armed forces just thinks that what will happen to you is the gnatic balance between receiving and withdrawing our units , why do the americans all the time emphasize that the retreat from bakhmut will not be a strategic problem and that it does not have an important meaning for ukraine, in fact, when we talk about

bakhmut, it is only one of the several directions that the russian army had to break through in order to enter the zone of slavic kramatorsk, this is also from the south, from discrimina, from bakhmut, then from ugledar, and all these five directions in fact, they were directed to the slavic kramatorsk in order to significantly advance our line of defense, to reach the borders of donetsk, luhansk region, and then it is possible to develop an offensive if there are forces like this today, even if we advance along the line , we will smell if it is there, we will withdraw for a few kilometers, then in no way is there any task of linking the front line, and actually all the efforts of the russians are sometimes only for gnawing one city there, six by six

kilometers, which is obtained over the course of seven months with significant losses for the enemy the next line of defense. it also allowed us to destroy the enemy, but we understand that we do not want bakhmut to be carried further and further into our territory. if this summer of hostilities now allows us to destroy the enemy with more losses than we have if we have a sufficient reserve in this area and we will not use the reserve that is preparing for the contrast, because then i fully understand the rational approach of the leadership of the armed forces to continue to use bakhmut as a zone of maneuvering of the enemy's forces. have you seen this video, one of our fighters for posts, how are they all going like this in the swamp, for example, it was a ponoflikt a few days ago, and really, now this mud is in the composition of the enemy, but including our actions, but

it is easier to conduct defense in these conditions when such people are not, no, no, not difficult, well weather conditions on the ground but i repeat now, the logistical support of our units is a serious challenge, because this is a destroyed bridge from chromov, it is now ours in the areas spread by engineers, given directions that allow our troops to receive supplies and transport the wounded, but there well, we understand that this area is now under a careful attack by aviation. and as we are weeding the enemies, there is enough now , well , it is difficult, including through this mud, to ensure the movement of our forces that provide support for bakhmut. so, right now, this engineering e-

the service is absolutely efficient and works very hard so that the road from the time of the yoke through the chrome to the bahmut worked as efficiently as possible even in those difficult weather conditions when we are talking about mud when you can't go around roads that have a hard surface eh what else thank you very much mr. serhiy, for these explanations serhii zurets, a military expert from the electric company depends express, was er this morning on the espresso tv channel, precisely in our telethon, which has been going on for 377 days , just as long as the russian one has been going on as a large-scale er invasion of ukraine which began on february 24 of last year. yes , spring is already here. you can even see the bakhmut fortress . spring has really come. bakhmut is standing. bakhmut is holding on. this is the situation. well , friends, we are slowly coming to an end. our

next hour of the marathon is still to say. let's say for the audience watching that it's not just that there may be some hills, well, there are already all kinds of people who are invited to the central tv channels, like there mikhail khodorovnov began to say that yes, it is possible that ukraine will have greater success after the spring invasion , that is, they are afraid, they are preparing, they understand what can to be and not just because they still cannot take the former 70,000 for the town with all their efforts with half a million mobilization to explain why they are unable to take this bakhmut and so much time and so much effort have been spent. they first they wind up their uh, these sofas their troops and then they think what to do with them when things go wrong well, but in the meantime, despite the fact that we defend ourselves, we also suffer losses uh among the military among civilians and let's
