[000:00:00;00] the time of this war will affect everyone igor, but about everyone who does a lot of things, when we include our fighters from the front line from the front line, they do not complain, but hint at the fact that there is fatigue, that there are people and units that have not left zero for the second year and it is obvious that there should be some kind of rotation and a wider circle of ukrainian men should be involved in direct combat operations, and probably, well, regarding mobilization, the authorities should somehow reconsider their approach to the continuation of mobilization. the russians mobilized 300,000 mobs, then six months after the mobilization of these 300,000, there were still 104,050 combat-ready units in ukraine, unfortunately or fortunately for some, this mobilization wave

does not affect such broad masses as in russia, and perhaps this is a weak point for ukraine , what do you think about the rotation of replacements and the strengthening of the ukrainian army, please? i think that the top military leadership is more aware of how combat-ready our units are on the front lines i personally will not judge the positions there, because the format of our work there sometimes involves going to a point of permanent deployment, then returning back to the position. but in this context, i fully trust the top military leadership, i will tell you why. because the critical shortage of personnel in the field would already be compensated for itself new by the mobilized citizens of ukraine, the only thing i can

advise here and there to people who may be somewhat critical of the subpoenas, the process of mobilization, the behavior of the commissioners there, and similar things is that if i am killed on positions, you are mobilized there, well, a specific person. regardless of whether you have been preparing for war during this year or not. if you are given three or five days to prepare to participate in hostilities, you will still end up there. therefore, now more than ever, i urge create an opportunity to learn the basics of military affairs, the culture of weapons , the basics of handling weapons, tactical medicine, engineering affairs, aerial reconnaissance , how to behave with drones, and similar things , because well, it may happen that the summons to you

it will actually happen when you are not ready for it and you will not be given time to prepare, your main training will take place on the battlefield, so i believe that the mobilization processes in ukraine will still take place, but otherwise it will be the will of our leadership igor, recently ukraine said goodbye to dmytro kotsyubayl with the call sign da vinci and a 27-year-old boy of your age who also went to war immediately after the revolution of dignity, a third of his life is war, how is it when a third of your life is this when your country is at war, i can't to respond to dmytro da vinci's feelings, such as mine personally, my contribution and dmytro 's, they are not comparable, he is all the time simply all the time

because he is still there for us , he continues to be the commander of da vinci's wolves, for us he continues to be the collective image of modern ukrainian a warrior and an example for every fighter, how should one go through with what force what mission and with what honor should one go through all the hardships of combat dmitri da vinci is one of the brightest examples in our modern history from which i do not know from which in the future they should write icons, create films, and the like, how a person spent his youth, that is, in principle, if you correctly say a third of his life, it does not lend itself to my understanding, because some

people have enough of a day of the week of a month of war in order to be satisfied and have enough of it for the rest of dmytro's life is a vivid example of this titanic iconoclasm, they sang about our predecessors with the ukrainian insurgent army from the rifle movement and from the entire ukrainian army, which we compared to for years when we grew up, now we we think that they can be proud of us primarily due to the fact that we had the honor of living with such contemporaries as da vinci . she was returning from the funeral, actually from saying goodbye to

her boyfriend with dmytro kotsyubail, and was returning in a car and was stopped by the police and began to check whether she was drunk and she began to tell and explain they say i'm just crying because i just buried my loved one and that didn't stop them twice twice they made her pass this breathalyzer test for the presence of alcohol i understand that they are in drager and i blew in the policeman's face here's a face here these eyes these eyes lose these eyes this is also some kind of collective image of the pain that these young girls who become widows at such a young age are experiencing now , moreover, these young girls who are also now fighting on the front lines and there is some policeman here , i understand that they are monitoring the order on on the streets, but people are kind, you should also have some empathy, well, you may not know this alina mykhaylova well, at least google what

she looks like, if you don't understand that ukraine is saying goodbye to dmytro kotsyubail, then google it too, look in the news feeds, there are phones, god, the internet well, for sure somehow include the head of the city sorry, mr. igor , it's me i think that maybe someone will get to those policemen, thank you for what you are doing, i hope that you will not have such incidents, for example, with those policemen who do not understand where, in which country , which is currently at war , under what conditions they live. ihor sholta, a serviceman of the armed forces of ukraine, a veteran of the ato, was with us. dispensaries so, please, let's speed up this procedure of breathing in your face, it's now even not even those who abuse alcohol no-no if you if if you

have been stopped you are sober they suspect you and try to tell you that you need to breathe and i'm breathing, but the doctor is waiting for me in the tuberculosis dispensary. do you remember this now? another incredible girl will be on our airwaves. maria kovalik, paramedic, medic of the 80th airborne assault brigade, joins us . mrs. maria. good morning. good morning. do you somehow celebrate volunteer day well, look, i’m actually not celebrating right now, because we are now in the conditions of war, and this holiday, let’s say it’s a holiday and a holiday, a holiday, and it’s quite a pain because we lost a lot of heroes, a lot of soldiers of volunteers and for me it is a rather painful holiday, i would even say it is more a day of remembrance for those volunteers who protect our country already 10 years ago

, for me this day is more about the memory of those who are not around now already during a full-scale war, 8 years of war in the east of ukraine, and for me it is more a day of remembrance for those volunteers who died and , accordingly, those who fight next to us and continue to defend our motherland at the age of 18, you voluntarily came to the military and asked to be taken they didn't take you, they said what else go for a walk, you went for a walk at 19, you came again as soon as you turned 19, but they didn't want to take you again. yes. why were you so drawn to the army ? what arguments did you find to end up there after all, and were there any days when you regretted all those nine years? five years of service during which you have saved hundreds, maybe even thousands of lives. no, i absolutely do not regret my choice, and for sure if i had the opportunity to go back in time, i would

have made the same choice as i did nine years ago. i am a doctor i studied to be a doctor in fact, in the summer of 18, i entered the military. they expelled me from there. they said that i was leaving. i asked my parents for permission . i am a girl. i said that i will be 19 in two months. i will return anyway. i came back and they tried to put me back the door with the fact that you don't understand what you're doing. that's where you're going, what awaits you, but i perfectly understood where i'm going, what awaits me and why i'm going there in 2014, i lost two close friends. that was probably such a push to join the armed forces of ukraine defend my homeland defend my country i am a woman i am a future mother and i want my children to live in a free and independent ukraine without a hint of russians in our country

, without a single presence but without a hint of russians in our country, what has changed on the front line and directly in your brigade during the last year of the full-scale war, and is it possible to compare the current situation with the one that existed in the 14th, 15th, and 16th years? it is impossible to compare it with the previous 8 years, it is a completely different war, it is an absolutely bigger force, this is even more aggression from the enemy , this is even more pressure from the enemy, besides the fact that this is the capture of our entire state and not the eastern territories of ukraine, so we see how much grief this year russian troops brought us so much trouble , how many losses among the civilian population and among the military population, in comparison, well, it

is difficult to compare the 8 years that were before that and during a full-scale war, this is a big difference. as for our brigade, things have changed absolutely all because, once again, the scale of the war is what it was for this year. they were probably not committed to anyone, and before that , no one was ready for such a war. no one was ready for such a cruel war. companies, the nature of your work, the nature of injuries to ukrainian soldiers, how much has it changed , it is the aviation, this is the aviation , this is the large-scale work of the aviation, this is the artillery , this is the work of the tanks, this is the barrel artillery, this is

the large-scale injuries, this is the massive injuries, this is these are the tattered bodies of our ukrainian soldiers, these are wounds - these are wounds that i had not seen before the full-scale war, in fact, in such massifs, because there was no such artillery work in the previous eight years in such a massif, in such a flurry, but the aviation was something new, and it in fact, it brought a lot and brings a lot of harm and takes a lot of our lives. and the staff of military doctors are volunteers, well , they are classic, so to speak, full-time military doctors, full-time soldiers. are these people who came after the mobilization after the beginning of a full-scale invasion, tell me specifically about the doctors, about the military. who are they, those who came during the mobilization , that is, the staff during martial law, it increases accordingly, the number of personnel increases, that is why we have doctors as well as full-time ones. that is, these are servicemen of the contract service, and those who came are also mobilized already during a full-scale war, that is, there is a different category of medics, now in the forces

of ukraine, these are full-time, that is, military personnel of contract service and mobilized accordingly . maria, there is a lot of material about how military medics are working but nevertheless, there are still people who watch this war as some kind of feature film or tv series, you can even say abroad, it is also clear that not everyone can feel, well, somehow put yourself in the place of another for them there is such a blockbuster is scary. what does your day look like, such a stressful day for a military medic , what is it, describe it, how it begins, how it ends, and how after this day you find the strength to fall asleep and have the strength for the next day from the beginning of a full-scale war. i have been working on evacuations since february 24. i have been working on evacuations in various areas where there have been military

operations, where military operations are ongoing, and the day of the evacuation medic. that is, it can be a day where there are very few wounded and there are days so intense that you just you don't have time to sit down for a minute, we had such days that in less than a day we took out 30-40 wounded from the evacuation point at which we worked , that is, we had a crew where there were two medics and a driver on duty and during the day during the day not even a day, but in less than a day, in a day we could take out 30-40 wounded , but it is actually very difficult, because you experience every pain of a serviceman, every pain of a wounded fighter through yourself, because when the wounded are brought to us, especially those of average condition, it is difficult state, they are the first to mention their family, parents, wives, children, first of all, children, and they expect your support. that's why it's actually very difficult at times, but it's our job and

we have to do it well, we have to be a support for the boys because they protect as well as us, since they are taking on all the fire, all the power of the enemy and we are their protection, we are their support both medically and psychologically, so it raises the spirits and it is much easier to work like this , of course it becomes difficult when there are a lot of wounded with various degrees of severity it's hard, but you have people around you, from whom you have support, these are the people you work with. so it's much easier to work with such people . and somehow, you adapt more, you are hardened by such people. that's why. somehow. well, but evacuation, when you say that, it’s not like that, nothing explodes anywhere, there is no shooting nearby, you drive on a flat road, you are a big car, where is

the one person you are rescuing, no, in fact , the road in our country has different evacuation points , there are very different ones, but it can be like field ones the road is an evacuation point, it can also be a forest, to say that we have some safe evacuation points, no, there are none, respectively. yes , there are also some sharp artillery attacks, so it flies very often, but at the moment, we do not have a safe place in ukraine, because where we are needed where we are supposed to be on duty there we are on duty really evacuation routes are very long and the longest evacuation that took us two evacuation points to the nearest hospital lasted 2.5 hours, this is a very long time especially for the seriously wounded because it is too precious time and very unfortunately, such a road often leads to not the best consequences for the wounded if it is severe. thank you maria for what you are doing. maria

kovalik, a medic of the 80th assault brigade , was with us and told us about what her life has been like since she was 19 years old, since she joined the army and since they started rescuing our wounded thank you and oleksandr vlasenko , the spokesman of the delegation of the international committee of the red cross in ukraine, is in touch and horliv residents are now trying to get to the occupied luhansk region . conventions please. well, i want to say right away that this is precisely the part of our activity that is confidential. we never disclose in the media or simply to the general public what we saw in places where prisoners of war are kept. i also want

to say that this information which it was spread in some media with a reference to the coordination headquarters for the treatment of prisoners of war that allegedly we visited a prisoner of war in the city of donetsk, it is not at all criminal because we did not have him access to the actual prisoners of war, in principle, we allowed humanitarian aid, these were warm things, warm shoes , and they were given to those people who receive them at the reception points, oleksandr, now there are some communication problems with the communication, i can't hear you . now we will try to restore it, and before mr. oleksandr will return to us on tuesday , we want to tell you that you can support espresso journalists, you can become our sponsor on youtube with the help or with the help of patreon, we will now show the link on

the screen and in the description of this video ago join our espresso community you will get backstage access from the studio with the hosts special live broadcasts with espresso editors the opportunity to ask video questions the opportunity to ask questions to espresso guests additional announcements of special broadcasts and espresso guests so your help is very important to us join join us again oleksandr vlasenko, we hope that the communication will be p oleksandr and what is the protocol, yes, the protocol of your actions, you transfer humanitarian aid, you do not see ukrainian fighters, but in what way, what are you doing next , how are you, well, the international red cross monitors the observance of international conventions regarding the detention of prisoners of war . well, is everything at all a mission of the red cross, please tell me. the rest is our duty and others try to do simply. if we talk about what

the city had on march 10, it was precisely the transfer of humanitarian aid, but this does not mean that we do not seek a visit to all prisoners of war who are held in places of detention is a tautology. that is, our protocol is such that we go to those places. we must see those people who are held in places, well, in the pre-trial detention center, there may be other places of detention and we have the right to a confidential dialogue with them, that is dialogue without the presence of representatives of the administration of the institution in which they are located. that is, it is not necessarily a face, there may be 20 people , 30 people. the main thing is that there are no representatives of the administration of the place where they are, so that it can be a sincere conversation there could be a normal confidential dialogue, as a rule, there is a doctor with us who checks the health of these people, he can talk to the doctor of the institution where these

people are, that is, conduct a dialogue with him at his professional level if these people need help, if, say, they cannot provide the representatives of the facility where the prisoners of war are kept, we are ready to provide this assistance. that is, all of this is being discussed , all the violations that we saw during our visit, we are again discussing with the administration of the facility where these prisoners of war and we point out that there are such violations that must be eliminated and we demand the next visit after a certain time when these violations must be eliminated, if we see that the violations are not eliminated or, let's say, there is no desire from the administration of the place of detention to eliminate these violations , we move on to dialogue at the highest level, that is , we are already talking with the management, which can change the conditions of stay of these people, mr. oleksandr . well, i cannot touch on your such

absentee conflict with the mayor's adviser mariupol petra petro andryushchenko he stated a month ago that on february 2 you brought humanitarian aid to the occupied district center of ukrainian donetsk region, including computer equipment that was later used by the occupiers for the forced passporting of ukrainian citizens and the removal of ukrainian children, i.e. registration for further deportation of ukrainian children to the territory of the russian federation , andryushchenko then said that the entire history of the red cross in mariupol during the occupation is not just a crisis or degradation - it is purely the use of international humanitarian aid to simplify the work of the occupiers, is this the goal of the organization? andryushchenko asked rhetorically how you would react to such words and whether this computer equipment is really used by you for the forced passporting of children, please, we have already talked about it, we have already reacted to these words

mr. advisor to the mayor of mariupol, we actually provide a lot of humanitarian aid in mariupol, including food kits, hygiene kits, and certain materials so that housing can be restored, including the equipment for the normal operation of social institutions , because otherwise it is impossible to understand who needs help. things except the actual performance of social functions, i.e. the register of people for the provision of humanitarian aid well, but in the end, you understand that this computer technology well, in fact, you help the occupying power just easier to work in the occupied territories well, it turns out that way, well, it is about the fact that the people who stayed there in mariupol

need help and there are social institutions that provide this help and in order to register these people who need help of any kind in order to understand what kind of help they need for so that we can bring and provide on time and in the full amount in which they need , it is necessary to keep certain certain reports , that is, to compile certain lists of people who receive this assistance, it is clear that to compile them in some notebooks or magazines, it is impossible in the modern world , it is all done precisely. well, through computerization, therefore, this equipment is provided purely for these things to the institute, for these things it is used , we constantly conduct audits of how this equipment is used. thank you, oleksandr vlasenko, spokesman for the delegation of the international of the red cross committee in ukraine was in direct contact with the studio, but now we have a pause before the news, we

are watching the tv magazine . but there is still no news. serhii lived in mariupol and it was there that he met the war. it is known that he stayed in the city for the first two weeks at the beginning of march . he tried to escape to a more peaceful place. they stole or he lost the computer может быть компьютер somewhere someone turned it on no the computer does not turn on nothing mother serhiia said that on the first day of the full-scale war in mariupol it was already

quite restless and with every hour the situation it only worsened rapidly from the bombings, the family hid in the basement, but the shelling was far from the only problem of the residents of mariupol. well, everyone was poisoned, the whole family, he, he, no, and they eat us, to be honest, it was very bad, the stores were all looted , no transportation, nothing . the horror most bothered the then five-year-old serhiy samoilov, the lack of internet, that is why the boy wanted to leave mariupol, he was very interested in computers , studied there, tried to develop them, created them the server and why he actually left

the house yes, there was no connection or internet at home, it’s clear that there were problems with food in the garden, he was going to go to pokrovsk, serhiy planned to go to his mother’s friend in pokrovsk, this is also the donetsk region, approximately 200 km from mariupol, and the boy's family did not dare to leave the house, so serhiy left alone , it happened on march 6, 4 p.m. we didn't let him go because there was a lot of shooting around. it was very scary. he took a backpack with him and it contained a computer. he dressed like a young man. i am talking to seryozha. come on , i thought he was walking around the house and would come back . at the moment, only one thing is known about pokrovsk, serhii never got home, the boy also

did not return, and no one knows where he is now , serhii’s mother still lives in mariupol, but he does not lose hope of finding his son and is doing everything possible for this, in particular, despite the intense the situation in the city, the woman found a connection to call us and he sees sit and look a lot, he looks at the city completely destroyed , i don't know anything, there is no internet where i live, and there is no internet at all. he was not in the dpr, there were no executioners on the territory or in the hospitals, i handed over the dna, so they looked at the dna, nothing, no news, nothing is known, meanwhile serhiy's father, who has been living separately for a long time and

is now in the territory under the control of ukraine is doing everything possible on his part to find his son, in particular, he turned to the boatman’s video message . it is possible that the boy was taken to the territory of russia, but it is possible that he is still in the territory of donetsk region, so i am appealing to the residents of the temporarily occupied territory who may see this program on social networks, take a close look at the photo of the child sergey looks like he is 16 years old, he has short blond hair and dark eyes. if anyone has seen the boy after march 8, last year, or does anyone know where he might be now, do not delay, dial the short number of the magnolia child tracing service from any mobile operator, 11630 hotline calls line from any ukrainian

mobile operator is free. if there is suddenly no connection, write to the
