[000:00:00;00] looking at their losses, they continue to break down literally on corpses , because, in particular, in our direction, they do not take even their three hundredth, that is, their wounded are lying around. and they swell forward, even when they retreat , they do not take them away, this is their military concept, and as you can see, they can achieve local successes, this at a time when sometimes i look into our televisions like this, well, there is a little less victory frenzy. but there was a time when everything had already started, reconstruction began and moscow began to be divided, so we really have to do it on bakhmut pay great attention to telling people what is really happening there and to trust the armed forces , mr. valery, well

, there is definitely no such thing on espresso. to the mass airwaves. i think that this is precisely why you say that the enemy has chosen the tactic of exhaustion, and in principle this tactic works. because i also read yesterday the post of the military valery lipinsky. if i understand correctly, his call sign is hartman where did i write about the fact that the bakhmut fortress song is so romanticized, the song is good, there are no complaints about the band antitila, but it is actually his post to people who think that if they listen to the song, then they will somehow support and cheer for bakhmut, but in fact he says that there that it's a meat grinder and it's scary so much that i'm turning gray even the phrase curls up to me this image and he he he terrible frost just runs through the skin and like the washington post has already written about the fact that the russians , in principle, succeed and feel tired

one can feel that the ukrainian troops are good, well-trained fighters, or they have already lost their limbs, or now somewhere in hospitals, i will restore them if they can be restored. and those who are newly mobilized are poorly prepared, and this also affects the course of the war. because i don't know how among all that, living in that meat grinder, i still have the strength and the opportunity to write a post that shows the inside of this meat grinder , do those who make decisions read these posts or hear them, or are the decisions final, well, the first i agree with the fact that there have been too many shows in the war, from what i can understand for the population, mostly some such funny things are thrown into the show . that's what the show is called

. the offensive guard is humorous. unfortunately, this is a fact that must be said about him. i am very grateful to them, in particular to your channel, for the fact that you are now providing objective information about the depletion of the armed forces in september. last year there was it is popular to laugh at the russian idiots who went to putin's army unprepared and their here is literally handsome, i also said then that there is a danger from the fact that of the 300,000 people whom putin took into the army, putin will use 20% and 60,000 combat-ready troops will become a problem for us in the spring you see, one can say so, and it happened, unfortunately, i heard very little about the mobilization component and mobilization strategy from the ukrainian state, except that, as always

, i remembered very much in march last year , arahami said about the question of a million reservists by the way, where are our million reservists, because my unit , in particular, has been out of combat for almost a year now, we have been in the south for 5 months, now it has been six months in the donbas, so this is a problem, we need to talk about it, the fighters are already starting to talk about it out loud therefore, some kind of change in the approach to this is needed. well, it is necessary to treat this more seriously, because you see putin made a bet on this, it is already obvious, they say again 400,000 they will recruit in the spring, this will be a problem. half a year another half a year well, then the resources of the human body will simply not be enough, we will all burn out here . do you understand that it is not only that, it is certain that in general they will be contused, they will be injured, everything, that's why i

say that this show is endless, endless analysts who reassure and say that it is putin's they will either die or russia will collapse, it will not happen, they will drive hundreds of thousands of people to the front, unarmed, poorly prepared, poorly motivated, but if there is wave after wave, month after month, we will receive bakhmut after bakhmut do you understand what the danger is, something must be done about it, my unit does not allow strategic thinking there because i am responsible for a completely specific direction, which absolutely specific unit, but i would like to see more of such things and not bravura statements. thank you, mr. valery, for voicing this problem in our eteri valery, an officer of the armed forces of ukraine, told us about what is happening in donetsk region. and actually a fragment from the post of valery lypinsky with the call sign hartman , which i mentioned, which illustrates what is happening there

takes place in the bakhmut fortress - this is an allegory, but in fact hell on earth is a meat grinder that repaints all houses , a technical room, there is still an endless stream of enemies, hungry cats and dogs, of which there are many. are you a mounted mortar or a zampolit? now you are an infantryman without the shouts and cries of loads and trenches, without the rules of guiding the battle in the classical sense, a rich palette of weapons that covers bakhmut forces the enemy throws everything there except weapons of mass destruction so far, and under all this cannonade, the prisoners run like cockroaches in an endless stream . the goals of the implementation of strategic plans and tasks, because if all these victims are only for the sake of some political ambitions and to appease the population on a telethon, this is the bottom. of course, the enemy loses much more, but they get rid of

scum and we are losing the best - writes valery lypinsky, well, then i will quote denys yaroslavsky, mentioned by me on our website, a less poetic, romantic, what is happening there in bakhmut, he compares it with the situation in the donbass in the 14th and 15th years under debaltsev, he writes the following without logistics, there is nothing, neither rotation , nor driving a bull, the enemy is smart, they are trying to cut logistics first, we understand that there may be a repetition of debaltseve, the same situation when a few routes are cut off and purposeful withdrawal of troops can put under attack the entire column through this throat 4 km this is very dangerous our difference from the russians when we took some places in the operational encirclement during the counterattack the russians dropped everything and ran we are standing it is our spirit emphasized the ukrainian commander well and besides everything that we just talked about what valery also voiced about the reserve about what i quoted what yehor quoted also continues evacuation and

volunteering under all the shelling now our leading journalist khrystyna yatskiv is in donetsk region and has decided to quit journalism to help people for christ's sake. tell me what brought you there. hello colleagues. well, i really don't give up journalism. thank you to everyone who let go for a short time because, well, there is work that needs to be done in addition to the one for which we studied, which we do well. and now a huge number of people in ukraine actually dedicates his time to volunteering and it seems to me that this is the only way for us to win when everyone will gradually give as much of his time and energy as he can in addition to what he does absolutely every day, so i again in donetsk region, this is not the first time, in fact, just now in kramatorsk there are several

powerful explosions, in fact, the local public is already reporting about it, so i don't think i will open america to anyone now that this is happening, this is an absolutely standard situation, there is a callus on the gnoc, something is so noisy somewhere donbas the donbas is thundering, the volunteers and the local administration are humming, our military law enforcement officers continue their work saving people, so volunteering brought you there, what exactly is included in these volunteer duties that volunteering in ukraine now has a different, different palette of colors, everyone has something else, they have their own direction, they do something , what does your volunteering mean? well, in fact, i only sporadically joined the work of the base.ua evacuation team, they have been doing this since the time of the lysychansk severodonetsk bakhmut, as

you understand and you know , there is already no check-in for civilians in bakhmut, which is a very sensitive moment, because the volunteers who worked and took care of the people who stayed in bakhmut now practically do not have access to these people do not have any information about these people, about these children who remain in bahmut, despite the fact that we supposedly have a working mechanism , now the cabinet of ministers on the forced evacuation of children from donbas, well, until the end, there is no understanding of how this is happening and whether it is happening at all and so we go on missions almost every day. the boys and girls have trips to quite hot locations . for example, yesterday was siversk, a small village .

of our military, including that if something is needed there in the hospital in terms of medical support there if possible of course all of this is now very closely interconnected khrystyna we talked a lot about the evacuation of children about forced non-forced evacuation the cabinet has already made a corresponding decision iryna vereshchuk , vice-premier she said the following is not about taking children away from their parents, it is about the use of physical coercion, but the legal feature of the forced evacuation of children is that at least one of the parents does not have the right to refuse evacuation and must to accompany the child during evacuation and how does it look directly on the ground? well, the decree applies only to children of bahmut and i do not fully understand what the difference is between children in bahmut and children in avdiivka , for example in avdiivka that some bombs and rockets are magic that do not hit in children, that is, for me at this moment, this resolution is not

clear, and frankly speaking, due to the closure of bakhmut. now we do not have any complete understanding of how the evacuation of these children takes place at the time of the adoption of the resolution, they are there according to official data, there were 38-39 left. i don't remember exactly how they are being evacuated now. how is it all organized ? how safe is it? who is carrying out this evacuation? it's not completely clear yehor. i would like to answer your question myself, but no, i don't have to. answers and these people are civilians who remain there what are their arguments that they still remain in their homes i understand that leaving your home - it is very difficult but nevertheless to sit all the time under what you say

go out on the porch or on the balcony with coffee and there everything just rattles and shakes. well, once or several times as a volunteer, come anyway, the volunteers then return to some calmer territory while they collect what they have to bring to the people. and those people are there non-stop, the motivation of these people is very different and in fact it seems fair and at times it is very simple to even condemn somewhere internally how is it that the most valuable thing you have is your life and you neglect it, you stay here besides, to be honest, the presence of the local population is really in the hot spots it really interferes with our military work, but when you begin to get to know each individual story with each individual case, then i understand that the motivation of people is different and it is not really about the fact that there are mostly the same dune , only those who are waiting for russia are left, this is not true, there are people left, whose motivation

needs to be analyzed in each individual case . yesterday they took my grandfather out of seversk , he lived for a whole year, but in principle he is very adequate, physically strong, but the moment came and finally his children persuaded him and he goes to the children in central ukraine actually he was afraid to leave the house for which he had earned his whole life, he thought that staying here was the best thing he could do, because who would stay if everyone left, and there are many, many other stories, boys and girls from the ua base told me that there is a woman in bahmut who was already ready to evacuate in the spring of last year, but during the evacuation they wanted to leave by train, the terrible rocket attack on the station in kramatorsk happened, and

she lost her son from there and was unable to leave. it was because of this that she returned to bakhmut for the second time, already with as a child, they tried to evacuate, they got into a huge car accident, it was not related in any way to the shelling there or anything else , people just got into an accident and everything in them is a psychological block. i will not go anywhere again, because any attempt to leave is connected with some it's a mess, and you have to approach this with understanding, these people really need psychological support, psychological work , they have post-traumatic syndrome at the highest level, and the worst thing we can do is people who think it's right to condemn them although, again, this applies to everyone except families with children, because there is no way for me everything here should be very clear. you have a child

by law, you have to take care of it, if you don't do this, if your child is in danger, you are fulfilling your parental duties in bad faith and hell, maybe we should think about criminal liability for those who do not take their children out of the most dangerous locations, but this is my subjective opinion and i really hope that our forced evacuation of children from the war zone is will expand and will not only be about bakhmut and will be organized more systemically for sure and the most important thing is that all these decisions will be made so that we do not lose our children khrystyna what is the general moral and psychological atmosphere in kramatorsk it seems like there are 40 kilometers straight there, what do people feel now when

they hear the cannonade and watch tv, hear the news about the fact that bakhmut is located in the semi-circle and the situation is enough tense and god forbid the situation with debaltsev there may repeat itself what people feel at the same time local people well what are local people if you consider this contingent then you need to understand that in kramatorsk it is one story yes that is, it is a city that is the rear if we are talking about donetsk region yes and here life actually goes on, it goes on, you know, in a very tense regime, even this is felt, you know, how in the mountains such rarefied air is tense. all this is a tightrope, and the local residents continue to live in this regime. but they have, for example, in kramatorsk, the elementary benefits of civilization, they remain in them, if we take the local population somewhere in seversk

or somewhere closer to bakhmut, then it is a completely different situation, because there are completely different living conditions, without everything that you and i are used to there, light, some conveniences and so on. and these people think in a completely different way, i can say that there is a feeling, they are just patiently waiting and asking me well, maybe you have heard well , when it will be over well, when it will be over they are tired on the one hand and on the other hand on the other hand, if you look at them, you understand that you can imagine how they will live no longer in these conditions. they have grown so close to them that it is almost impossible for them to integrate into normal life, normal living conditions will be extremely difficult in the future, and i think that we can help them in this to help by offering some, well, somewhere even to expand their worldview a little, but now the vs.ua team

, for example, is engaged in the organization of art campive , it is like camps with an artistic bias for teenagers who suffered greatly from the war many children from donetsk region and they are invited to some beautiful locations on the ukrainian map, somewhere in the carpathians, they stay there for a long time, they come, you know, like a retreat, if you can say, and these children blossom, they look completely different, that is, as soon as a person receives a slightly different vision, a little withdraw from what she is used to, she becomes more flexible to make some decisions, to think in a new way, and this is actually a big challenge for us as a state to help them in this, although

it is definitely fair to say the same what prevented these people from being a little more integrated into ukrainian society, before the great war or before the war that began in 14th year, because it seemed to us that we , we, we, we were all together. everyone has their own problems, but we are all together. the ukrainian people, that's what i want to say, friends , to get to know each other, to drive. sorry, to each other, to try to understand each other's mentality, but this is the key to understanding , and we can do it. a full-scale war, unfortunately, such conditions were previously, the historian yaroslav hrytsak even before the war said that cheap airlines can sew ukraine together well, but unfortunately, cheap airlines in ukraine did not appear in the hall. now there are no planes at all except for military ones. sunny ukrainian donetsk joined us

. thank you, khrystyna yatskiv, well done yes, girl , respect for a good deed, yes well, official information, unfortunately, in the past day, the occupiers killed three peaceful residents of the donetsk region, pavlo kyrylenko , the head of the region, three residents, reported this donetsk region, two in kostyantynivka, which we mentioned, and one in avdiivka, another 14 people in the region were injured. well, at the moment , it is impossible to establish the exact number of victims in mariupol and volnovas, the occupied territories . serhiy good morning . i greet you, mr. serhiy. i quoted the ukrainian commander of the armed forces of ukraine from bakhmut , who says that god forbid the situation of the ukrainian debaltseve could be repeated, because the neck of the neck, well, in fact, the semi-boiler is only 4 km, and in the event of a column exit from bakhmut, the column may simply come under

heavy fire from the russians. unfortunately, this was the case when exiting debaltseve in 14-15 years. and what do you think about the fact that are happening around debaltseve around bakhmut, i apologize. well, if we are talking about bakhmut, now the general place in the evaluation of the actions taking place around bakhmut is what is important now, in fact, the northern flank, that is, those troops located above bakhmut , russian troops. they began to move and is trying to the north-west and the impression is that they are now trying to carry out such a movement in order to get out of the north in time into the ravine , that is, in fact, the defense of bakhmut on the flanks around

the city and on the eastern flank is sufficiently reliable and this prevents the enemy from advancing on the city itself, but we can see that the enemy is looking for options, and that's why it's just such a large bypass ring at the time of the ravine through the minikivka through the dubovorikhova, which is up there for the time of ymyarov, this is what we have organized so far, and i hope for any high-quality of changes on the battlefield now it is precisely the provision of bahmut through the routes that are currently working, it is reliable enough and i hope that all these risks are associated with a large such direction of the environment of you bahmut, our command in

absolutely although we understand that there were and the strengthening of the group by our troops which primarily stands to the west of bahmut and in particular in the time ravine because the time ravine is now actually the key to maintaining and maintaining the security of bahmut because the time ravine is now actually the main target for the enemy so that in the next few days as before they will be quite difficult, although we can see that the dynamics even in the last days are even higher than the previous periods of hostilities for bakhmut. so i believe that now bakhmut and avdiivka are the two main directions where the enemy is now implementing its main efforts and three in other directions, the kupyan lyman and vugledar remain auxiliary in the format of the offensive that

the russian federation is currently implementing . of the other side, but well, ours are important to us and our brothers, if we take them in qualitative terms. well, our military is much, much better than what russia mobilized and threw into the war with ukraine. meanwhile, the institute for the study of war says that russia is not planning a new wave of mobilization. and that that she has mobilized up to this point, how much more will it plague our military. well, here are two points, firstly, we are conducting hostilities, we really have losses in some brigades there

, several times commanders due to losses in some brigades and battalions there, well, significant personnel rotation it is because of the dead and the wounded, and we understand that this affects the leadership of these brigades to a large extent, because, relatively speaking, they acquire skills gradually, if we have lost part of the commanders there, then the new people who arrive to replace them gain combat experience gradually, and this is what now characterizes both armies, the russian and the ukrainian, despite the fact that we had more combat experience. but all the same, we understand that there are losses in the armed forces of ukraine and now in there are two of us, in particular, keeping those parts in a combat-ready condition and , on the other hand, forming reserves that are supposed to carry out

counteroffensive actions, we understand that this is an equally difficult process that is happening now and when the publication of the washington post appears, which says that the troops are exhausted this is an assessment of a number of american officials, there is also one that says that everything is fine, we are preparing reserves and preparing for counter- offensive actions, no matter how difficult it is for us, and we can ensure the solution of key tasks hostilities until the end of the year as a condition that western weapons will arrive

, because it has been repeatedly said that the pace of the arrival of these weapons is less slow than the ukrainian side expects. according to our estimates, there are about 320,000 personnel plus about 60,000 reserves in combat formations on the territory of ukraine. i think and in fact now they will have an additional 100,120,000 when they start in april. one hundred thousand. these are the conscripts and as conscripts who have completed their military service and without any options and share from such a decision, that is, we can say there 300 20 + 60 + 120 these are the indicators that we have in the russian federation and they believe that this is enough to carry out offensive actions that are now continue on the territory of ukraine with the same format

of intensity at least there in the coming months and the coming months, i think it is just before the new draft, which will take two or three months there, they will collect a new draft of 120,000 and sometime after a certain time they they hope that in this way, only at the expense of conscripts, who will be transferred to mobilized and conditional contractors, they will support combat operations with the intensity that exists today. of course, our mobilization potentials are different in ukraine and the russian federation, and i think that against this background exactly a number of publications in various publications that talk about the difficulties of conducting an offensive operation about problems and so on in order to create a certain informational background for the start of some negotiation process because there are too many of publications appeared at the same time in the american environment in the european environment , which in fact, in my opinion, are really trying to create such

a political background for changes in the attitude of ukraine to the negotiations with the russian federation, mr. sergiu, and how effective it is, how much it can change the position of ukraine . we have not suffered enough losses to ensure, under external influence, some changes in our attitude towards the enemy. and this is an option to influence us and this option is vulnerable enough for our stability on the battlefield thanks to defense express company was with us we are now 9 o'clock exactly a minute of silence for all the dead during this
